Our Solutions
Solar PV Installation
We offer a range of solar PV services, from small domestic arrays to large commercial sized systems. With a range of different options available we specialise in tailoring solar arrays to your needs and with a finish that looks good and meets your expectations. All of our engineers and electricians are full trained to the latest standards. Once completed your system will also be registered with a certifying body, and all of our installs come with an insurance backed guarantee for your peace of mind.
So how does it work? Solar panels turn energy from the sun into DC electricity; this is then converted by an inverter into AC electricity that you can use in your home. Helping you save money. If you sign up for the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) your energy provider will also pay for any electricity that you send back to the grid.
The panels are easy to install and are fitted to a mounting system to secure them to your roof, they can also be placed on a flat roof or even ground mounted in your garden or any open space.
We offer a free consultation and no obligation quote policy. So if you would like to know more, get in touch.
One of our install team will visit you to discuss the options available, take measurements and provide a free no obligation quote. We can provide a range of mounting systems for on-roof, in-roof, flat roof, or ground mounting. We will discuss with you which ones are most suitable and explain how it will work. With many different modules on the market we will explain the options and looks available, there is no one size, or look, fits all for our installs! We can also talk you through other optional extras you can have fitted to your system such as immersion control, battery storage, monitoring or electric vehicle charging.
Once you have decided on the options available our team will provide you with a quote, displaying the breakdown of the prices and products that have been chosen. If you’re happy with the price then we can move to the next stage; installation!
Our team will arrange a time suitable for us to come round and install your solar array, this usually takes 2-3 days, the scaffolding may be up for a bit longer, but we'll take care of this for you.
After the installation has been completed we will take care of any paperwork and provide you with a handover pack which will contain all the relevant information about your solar array. If your system comes with online monitoring or control we can show you how this works.Â
Battery Storage Installation
Battery storage is the next step in renewables. The ability to store the energy you produce from renewable energy sources is key to keeping payback periods down, as well as your bills and carbon footprint! There are a range of battery solutions available and our trained team can help guide you through them. Some energy suppliers also provide special tariffs so you can charge your batteries on a cheaper energy tariff, and under the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) some providers may also pay you for energy exported to the grid from your batteries.
Our installation team are fully trained and experienced in adding battery storage to new or existing solar systems.
With a vast range of storage systems to choose from our technical team have been trained to ensure the right options are there for you. We will never offer a system that is too large, or unsuitable for your energy needs.
Battery storage is designed to capture any surplus energy from your solar array and store it until you need it. This helps to further reduce the amount of energy you buy from the national grid, and so, can help reduce your bills further. Another benefit of some systems is the ability to keep some circuits running in the event of a grid failure (UPS / EPS functionality).
We have batteries that start at just 2.4kWh for those smaller systems through to larger systems right up to commercial size storage solutions.
Storage solutions come in two main types, AC Coupled, or DC Coupled. We can also offer off-grid solutions. See some of our range here:
Most batteries require only a small amount of work to install, we will usually visit you to discuss the options and the best place for the battery to go. Our show room also has an array of battery storage systems, feel free to pop by and have a look!

Inverter replacements, repairs and servicing.
If your solar array is over 5 years old, or if you have recently moved into a property that already has solar panels installed we recommend having a service carried out. Our services are a series of checks to ensure that your solar array is working the way it should, but more importantly to check that it is safe. All of our servicing is carried out by our in-house electrical engineers. We also offer a fault finding and repair service, including inverter replacement.
Our installation team offer a range of service and maintenance packages to our customers across Sussex, Hampshire and Surrey. We tailor our packages to suit your needs, whether it’s a full service or a service, solar clean, or a quote for repairs.
Our servicing and maintenance are carried out by our trained engineers and you will receive a full report from us, as well as any recommendations should we see anything that may need to be upgraded.
As part of our packages we can also offer monitoring. We can add in a piece of technology that monitors your system, we then keep an eye on this for you and alert you to any issues. Where possible we can guide you through fixing any problems, but if not we can often provide a quote for repairs needed without needing to come out first.
Sometimes things go wrong! In the first instance we always recommend that you contact the company that first installed the system, however if this is not possible we are always more than happy to help.
Our engineers can come out and perform a fault investigation, in some cases repairs can be quoted for and the issue rectified whilst our engineer is with you, otherwise a quote will be provided and we can come out and get your system up and running again, getting you back to generating power and saving on your bills.
As part of our repair service we offer inverter replacements, most inverters will need replacing at least once within the life time of a solar system. We offer a range of inverters that we can use to swap out, but now could be a key time to upgrade your system, ask about our battery storage solutions and how we can add storage to your array at the same time as replacing your inverter.
