01 / What we install

What we install

A complete system for homes, businesses, farms and industrial sites, from the panels on your roof to the connection into your electrics.

Solar panels

Panels from makers including Aiko, JA Solar and LONGi, laid out to suit your roof and what you want from the system.

Flat and pitched roofs

We fit panels on flat and pitched roofs. On a flat roof, they can sit on ballast trays weighted with concrete blocks.

Inverters and wiring

We supply and fit inverters, mainly Fox and Sigenergy, and run the cabling that connects the panels to your electrics.

Battery storage

We supply and fit batteries, mainly Fox and Sigenergy, to store the power your panels generate.

EV charging

Charge your car using your solar power with a home EV charger, including Zappi.

Consumer unit upgrades

We survey your consumer unit as part of every quote, and upgrade it if your system needs it.

Main contractor
Certification
NICEIC, MCS

The main contractor asked us to supply, install and commission a solar PV and battery system for a home in Tunbridge Wells. The job was phased, with the solar first and the battery second.

The main challenge was access to the flat roof, which needed a 40-ton crane to lift the equipment up.

We laid grey protective sheets over the roof, set out black plastic trays and weighted them with concrete blocks. We then fixed the black solar panels in rows across the roof.

“I think we can all agree it all went very smoothly…”

Frequently asked questions

We don’t do one-size-fits-all systems. Each one is designed around your needs and the space available, so we give you a clear quote after a survey.

Installing solar panels and batteries in a home is zero-rated for VAT until 31 March 2027. The reduced rate applies after that. This applies to homes, not to businesses in general.

In England, most domestic rooftop solar is permitted development, subject to limits. Listed buildings are excluded, and conservation areas have extra limits. If you're unsure, check with your council.

Yes. On a flat roof, panels can sit on ballast trays weighted with concrete blocks. Whether this suits your roof depends on its structure.

Yes. We install home EV chargers, including Zappi, and we supply and fit batteries, mainly Fox and Sigenergy. How a battery connects depends on your inverter, so tell us what you have.
