See Local Demand Before You Buy
Registration is free, and the app shows the kind of solar enquiries appearing in the areas you cover before you commit to a paid pack. Demand varies with the season, energy prices and location, and no particular volume of work is guaranteed.
Lead Packs of 5, 10 or 20
5-lead pack
Suits a sole-trader electrician who fits a few systems a month, or a company testing the service in a new area.
10-lead pack
Suits an installer with one or two roof teams who wants a steady run of domestic surveys.
20-lead pack
Suits established solar and battery businesses with the survey capacity to respond quickly across a wider area.
Types of Solar Leads
- new domestic solar PV installations;
- combined solar and battery projects;
- battery retrofits to existing arrays;
- inverter replacements and hybrid inverter upgrades;
- fault-finding and repairs on older systems;
- panel cleaning and pigeon-proofing; and
- system extensions, optimisers and diverters.
How Solar Leads Work
- Build your free profile. Add your business details, MCS and electrical registrations, services and working area.
- Browse local enquiries. Check the app for jobs that match the work you do.
- Choose a lead pack. Buy 5, 10 or 20 leads when you want access to matched customer details.
- Contact the homeowner. Qualify the job and arrange a remote or on-site survey.
- Send your own proposal. You set the design, equipment, price and terms.
- Manage the job directly. Contracts, deposits, installation and aftercare are handled by your business.
Each homeowner enquiry can be shared with up to four suitable installers. A lead is an opportunity to quote, not a guaranteed sale.
Qualify the Enquiry Before the Survey
A short call can tell you a lot before you drive out. Ask for the annual kWh figure from a recent bill, which way the roof faces, whether there is an electric car or heat pump, and what the customer hopes to achieve — lower bills, more self-consumption or backup during power cuts. Satellite imagery and a couple of roof photos will often show whether the array layout is realistic and whether shading needs a closer look.
For existing systems, ask for the inverter make and model, any error code on its display, the installation year and whether the original installer is still trading. For battery retrofits, find out whether the current inverter can be kept, which affects whether an AC-coupled or hybrid design makes more sense.
Price the Awkward Parts Clearly
Homeowners often compare quotes line by line, so make it obvious what is included. Separate scaffolding, bird mesh, consumer unit work, cable runs and any earthing upgrades where they apply. Explain whether the price depends on the survey, and how unexpected findings — fragile slates, an old fuse board, or a meter that needs moving — will be priced and approved.
- list panel, inverter and battery models rather than generic descriptions;
- show the MCS generation estimate and the shading factor used;
- state who handles network operator notification or application;
- confirm the MCS certificate, electrical certificate and handover pack;
- set out deposits, deposit protection and payment stages; and
- explain product and workmanship warranties separately.
Choose the Work and Areas That Suit You
Pick the service categories your team is set up for. Some businesses want only full installations; others do well with inverter swaps and repair call-outs that fill gaps between bigger jobs. Set a working radius that reflects scaffolding logistics and survey time, and review it as your diary fills rather than taking on enquiries you cannot survey promptly.
Build Confidence with Product Knowledge
Customers may already have a preference, or an existing system, from brands such as SolarEdge, Enphase, Huawei, GivEnergy, SolaX, Fox ESS or Tesla. These are examples rather than recommendations. Being clear about which systems you install and support, how firmware updates and monitoring work, and how warranty claims are handled helps homeowners trust your proposal.
Turn Handover into Future Work
A tidy handover — showing the customer the isolators, explaining the monitoring app and leaving a complete paperwork pack — often leads to referrals. If you offer cleaning, annual health checks or battery additions later, say so without implying ongoing maintenance is included.
Respond from the Roof
The mobile app lets you check new enquiries between jobs, with the job details and customer contact information in one place, so you can reply while the homeowner is still comparing installers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are solar leads guaranteed sales?
No. Each lead is a genuine opportunity to contact a homeowner and quote, but surveys and signed contracts cannot be guaranteed.
Can I choose which solar work I receive?
Yes. You can select categories such as new installations, batteries, inverters or repairs, and set the areas you cover.
How many installers receive each enquiry?
A homeowner enquiry may be matched with up to four suitable installers.
Do I need MCS certification to receive leads?
Requirements depend on the service. For eligible export payments in Great Britain, customers normally need an MCS certificate or equivalent for a new system. Cleaning and some repairs do not call for that certification, though electrical work still needs a competent contractor.
