From enquiry to switch-on, typically three to four weeks.
Our process is deliberately short, predictable, and paperwork-light for you. Here's exactly what happens at each stage — and what we handle so you don't have to.
- 01
Free survey
30-minute visit (or remote first-pass with satellite imagery). Structure, orientation, shading, consumer unit.

Tailored proposal
Within 48 hours: fixed, itemised quote. Panels, inverter, battery, labour, scaffold — plus modelled savings and payback.
- 03
Contract & DNO
Digital contract, 30% deposit, installation slot booked. We file the DNO notification that same day.
- 04
Installation
1–2 days on site for a typical residential install. Scaffold, fit, commissioning, handover.
- 05
MCS & SEG paperwork
We issue your MCS certificate and complete Smart Export Guarantee registration — export payments start straight away.
- 06
First-year review
Data check at month three and twelve. Confirms the system is meeting — or beating — its modelled yield.
- 07
Monitoring
Live app dashboard. Alerts on performance drift, inverter faults or string issues — often before you notice.
- 08
Maintenance
Optional annual plan from £150/yr. Panel clean, electrical check, inverter firmware, written report.
Common questions, answered plainly.
For most homes, no — solar falls under permitted development. Listed buildings and conservation areas need approval; we handle the application.
25+ years with output warranty of at least 85% at year 25. Real-world systems commonly exceed this.
Less ideal, not a dealbreaker. East/west gives ~85% of south. North typically ~60%. We model your specific roof.
MCS-certified installs are recognised by lenders and typically add 4–5% to property value. Your certificate is the proof document.
