 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a very prompt response from the firm in answer to our inverter being off line. Josh came out to help with our sunsync inverter. He was cheerful, polite and very respectful of our home. He was extremely patient in trying to resolve our issues and due to the sunsync platform being down he had to come the next day to resolve our issue. He successfully sorted out our problem and we were only charged the one call out fee. I would definitely recommend this firm and Josh in particular.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Exeter get enough sun for solar panels to be worth it?

Yes. Exeter and the wider Devon area average around 1,550–1,650 sunshine hours per year — well above the UK national average. Even on overcast days, modern monocrystalline panels generate electricity from diffuse light, making solar a sound year-round investment across the EX postcode area.

Do I need planning permission for solar panels in Exeter?
