 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Josh from HelpInU Solar was excellent throughout our journey to install solar, battery, gateway and an EV charger. Understood exactly what we wanted and designed the system to make it look great. Liam and Anthony sorted the roof and were only too happy to show the excellent tile notching, glad and bird proofing. Sam did an absolutely fantastic job with the electrics. Such a tidy install, tested and commissioned without trouble. Excellent team that I honestly highly recommend.

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?
