Solar designed for Kent homes & businesses

Working in Kent every day means we know the county's properties inside out - from period homes in the High Weald to new-build estates around Ashford and busy industrial units in the Medway towns. Our base in East Malling keeps us close to the job, so site visits and aftercare are quick and easy to arrange.

Kent enjoys some of the highest sunlight levels in the South East, which makes it ideal for solar. Whether you want to slash household bills or cut overheads on a commercial roof, our MCS-certified team handles everything in-house - from the first survey to commissioning and long-term support.

  • Based locally in East Malling - fast response across Kent
  • Genuine knowledge of local roofs, conservation areas & planning
  • One local team from survey to aftercare - no subcontractors passing you on

FAQ

Solar in Kent - your questions answered

Can't find the answer you're looking for? Give us a call.

Savings depend on the size of the installation and how much energy is used during the day. By using solar energy as it's generated, reliance on the grid is reduced, leading to lower monthly costs. A detailed projection is provided during your initial consultation.
Many solar installations fall under permitted development rights and don't require full planning permission. There are exceptions for certain buildings or locations, and our compliance and approvals stage ensures all local regulations are met before any work starts.
A standard installation often takes between a few days and two weeks, depending on the scale and complexity. A clear schedule is always provided before work begins.
