Installation
From survey to switch-on, a professional solar installation is usually quicker and less disruptive than people expect. Compare free quotes from vetted, MCS-certified installers covering your area.
Why Solar
It starts with a survey: the installer checks your roof direction, pitch, condition, shading and available space, plus your consumer unit and where the inverter will go. They then design a system sized to your home and energy use.
On installation day, scaffolding goes up, mounting rails are fixed to the roof, panels are attached and the system is wired to an inverter and your consumer unit. Most domestic installations are completed within one to two days, followed by commissioning and registration.
