Good to know

FAQ

Clear answers on the survey, payment and what happens after you submit the estimator. If anything is not covered here, the Sunlife Solar team will talk it through on your first call.

What happens after I complete the estimator?

Your verified enquiry goes straight to the Sunlife Solar team, who aim to make first contact within 60 minutes during working hours. That first call confirms your interest, checks the basics and looks at your roof and any shading.

Sunlife then prepare your quotation and arrange a free home survey to confirm everything precisely.

Which areas do you cover?

Sunlife Solar install across Kent and the wider South East. That covers the postcode areas CT, ME, TN, BN, RH, GU, DA, BR and CR.

If you are just outside one of those areas, complete the estimator anyway and the team will let you know.

How quickly will I get my quote, and how soon can you install?

Your quotation is usually issued within 2 working days of that first call.

Once you place an order, installation is typically scheduled within 2 weeks of the signed contract, or at a later date if that suits you better.

Is the survey free, and is there any obligation?

Yes. The home survey is free of charge and there is no obligation to proceed after the survey or after receiving your quotation.

As a RECC member, a 14 day cooling off period applies after you sign, so you have time to be sure.

How and when do I pay?

A 500 pound deposit is taken when you place your order. 50 percent of the balance is then due within 21 days of the agreed start date, with the remaining balance payable on final commissioning.

Accepted payment methods are bank transfer and card.

What warranties do I get?

Your panels, inverter and battery come with the manufacturers' own warranties, and Sunlife Solar stand behind their installation work.

The exact warranty lengths for your specific system are set out in your written quotation.

What equipment will be installed?

Systems are built around all black solar panels, a compatible inverter, and battery storage where you choose to include it. Standard pricing allows up to 3 battery modules.

The final products are confirmed at survey, based on your roof, your usage and the system design.

Do I need planning permission?

For most homes, solar panels are permitted development and do not need a planning application.

Listed buildings and some conservation areas can be different, and your surveyor will flag anything that needs checking before you commit.

Who carries out the installation?

Your installation is carried out by Sunlife Solar UK, your local South East installer.
