A small, friendly family business installing premium solar panels & battery storage across the south of England. Free quote, honest pricing, no high-pressure sales.
Energy prices have nearly doubled since 2021. A typical south-coast home pays back its system in 6–8 years — and keeps saving for 25+.
Save £900–£1,800/year
Generate your own electricity by day and slash standing-charge dependency.
Battery-ready setups
Store sunshine for the evenings. Export the rest back to the grid for credit.
Cut 1.6 tonnes CO₂
A typical install offsets the same carbon as planting 80 mature trees each year.
Adds home value
EPC-rated improvements boost resale value by an average of £8,000+ (Rightmove).
Simple. Honest. Done.

Our family
Three generations. One roof at a time.
We're the Hartleys — a small family business with our head office in Poole, Dorset. Dad started fitting panels back in 2009 when solar was still a curiosity. Today, his two sons run the installs, mum keeps the office running, and we still answer the phone ourselves.
No call centres. No salespeople on commission. Just neighbours helping neighbours across the south of England take back control of their energy.
