Solar services, explained without the sales pitch

Y Solar helps UK homeowners and businesses decide whether solar makes sense for their property. We are an online guide, not an installer, and we are not part of DESNZ, Ofgem or MCS. Each page below explains one part of the journey in plain English.
When you are ready, we pass your enquiry to MCS-certified installers who cover your area. Because prices and rules change, we link to official sources. If you are new to solar, start with solar panel installation and our guide to what solar panels cost.

How the services fit together
Most people begin with panels, then decide whether to add battery storage or an EV charger. Monitoring and servicing keep the system working, while export advice shows how to earn from spare power. Each choice affects the others, so we explain them together.
Whatever you pick, certification matters. Read about MCS-certified installations before you sign anything. For help with export income, see our page on Feed-in Tariff and SEG advice.
Already own panels? Our pages on solar panel maintenance, system health checks and smart energy monitoring show how to keep output high.
How to choose where to start
If you have no panels yet, begin with the numbers. Check your power bills, then read about solar panel installation to see what a survey covers. Because prices vary, our guide on whether solar panels are worth it helps you test a quote.
If you already have panels, look at how well they work. Falling output is easy to miss, so a short check can pay for itself. Meanwhile, an export tariff is worth reviewing each year, because suppliers change their rates.
Businesses and landlords follow the same path. The main differences are roof ownership and the lease. Whatever your case, send one enquiry and we will point you to installers who cover your area.
