Three steps, and we handle almost all of it

Tell us about your home, we call you back with an honest price, and our technicians install. Most residential installations are completed in a day. We handle the network application, scaffolding, electrical work, inspection and connection.

  1. Tell us about your home

    Fill in the 60-second form or call us. We ask about your address, your roof, who lives there and roughly what you spend on power. No site visit is needed to get started and there is no obligation.

    What we do with it

    We check your roof on satellite imagery, look at your local sunshine hours and your lines company, and work out what size system suits you.

  2. We call you back with a real price

    A local consultant calls you, usually within one business day. They will talk you through the system that suits your roof and your actual usage, and give you a straight price.

    What you will get

    A written quote with the total installed price, the expected annual saving, the payback period and exactly what is included. No inflated number waiting to be discounted, and no pressure to decide on the call.
