Be the installer that answers the questions before the survey.

A homeowner buying panels, a battery or a heat pump asks several installers to quote and reads each site for the survey, the finance terms and the warranty. The free report reads your site beside the installers you name and shows which page loses the quote.

How buyers choose between solar and renewables installers.

A renewables installation is a big decision for a household, and the buyer is often new to the technology. Before they let an installer into the house, they want to know the company is established, accredited and not going anywhere.

They compare the practical details: whether the survey is free and what it involves, whether finance is offered and on what terms, what the warranties cover and for how long, which brands of panel, battery or inverter are used, and whether the installer handles any paperwork with the network operator. A site that answers these on the page saves an uneasy phone call.

Reviews carry a lot of weight in a market where homeowners are wary of hard selling. Reviews that mention a straightforward survey, a tidy installation and aftercare count for more than star ratings alone, and accreditation badges shown on the page help the comparison.

A week in your market

The moments that cost or win you work.

A composite, illustrative week of the kind of thing that happens in this trade. It is not a customer's diary and nothing in it is measured.

  1. Monday

    A rival changes its headline offer

    A competing installer swaps its homepage offer from panels to a panel-and-battery bundle. Homeowners comparing quotes start asking you about bundles you never advertised.

    What changed on competitor sites?
  2. Tuesday

    Paid search gets more crowded

    New installers start bidding on the same searches as you in your county. You see more clicks that never become enquiries and do not know who you are bidding against.

    Are rivals' ads beating mine?
  3. Wednesday

    A homeowner cancels the survey

    They booked, then cancelled. A rival's site explained the warranty and finance terms on one page; yours asked them to wait for the survey to find out.

    Why did they choose someone else?
  4. Thursday

    The team argues about which channel to back

    Lead generation sites, paid search and local map listings all bring enquiries of different quality. The question is where the next budget goes, and the rivals' choices are invisible.

    Which channel should we fund?
  5. Saturday

    A cautious buyer reads the reviews

    A retired couple read reviews for four installers. They skip past ratings and look for mentions of pressure selling, and of aftercare when something went wrong.

    Why aren't my reviews converting?
