Why choose MakeMyHouseGreen for solar panels and battery installations?

MakeMyHouseGreen designs and installs solar panels and battery systems built around your home, your energy use, and the outcomes you care about. We don’t do one-size-fits-all installations, choosing to take time to understand each customer’s needs and find the right solution for their home.

We’ll also work with roof materials and types that other solar companies won’t take on – we’re experienced with slate roofs, flat roofs, and more! We’ll guide you with unbiased advice and support through the entire process, so switching to solar feels straightforward.

FAQs

What is the MakeMyHouseGreen solar calculator?

Our solar calculator is a quick way to estimate how much electricity your home could generate with solar panels, what you might save on bills, and how quickly your system would pay for itself. We give you a precise estimate based on your home details and local solar conditions

How accurate is your solar savings estimate?

We have the most accurate solar calculator in the UK – it can calculate your solar costs, savings, and energy generation with over 96% accuracy. Our model uses geospatial and property data to generate this precise estimate. However, your final figures can change after a roof suitability check, shading review, and installer design.

Is the solar calculator free to use?

Yes – using the solar calculator is free and there’s no obligation to proceed with a solar purchase. As part of our process, we also offer a free consultation with our expert team to help you get personalised solar advice. You’re always in control of whether you take the next step.

What is your process from estimate to installation?

A typical journey looks like this:

  • Get your fast, free solar calculator estimate

  • Have a call with our team to go through your home and energy needs in detail

  • Review your custom solar system design

  • Book a virtual home survey to go through final logistical details

  • Schedule your expert solar installation with our team

How do I know if my roof is suitable for solar panels?

Roof suitability depends on available roof space, orientation, pitch, shading (trees/chimneys), and roof condition. We’ll use a model of your home to confirm what’s possible.

What factors affect my solar payback time

Typically system size, electricity prices, self-consumption (how much of the energy generated by your panels you use), and whether you add battery storage are the main.

Do I need a solar battery?

We often recommend it, but it’s not a requirement to get a battery. Batteries help you use more of your solar electricity in the evening (when usage is typically highest) and reduce your reliance on the grid, but they add upfront cost. Our experts can help you determine the best choice depending on your usage pattern.

Is my data safe on your website?

We only ask for details needed to calculate your estimate and support your next steps. We will never sell your personal information.
