From postcode to switched-on, all by video.
1. Enter your postcode online
Takes 30 seconds. We use it to size a likely system from a UK average-roof model before the call.
2. Free 30-minute video consultation
A Geko engineer walks you through your roof on a satellite map, your usage from your last bill, and what a system would look like on your home.
3. Custom design + proposal
Designed in-house by a qualified engineer. Your system and its total price on one page, sent by email.
4. Install when you're ready
Install day is our first visit. Typically one day on the roof. We register the system with the DNO and SEG and hand it over with the monitoring app live.
Side by side
Traditional solar sales vs. virtual.
Traditional doorstep / phone solar sales
- Sales rep visits your home (often booked under a different pretext)
- Pressure to sign on the night: "prices go up tomorrow"
- System sized by a commission-paid rep, not an engineer
- Quote shown on a tablet, rarely left in writing
- Finance pushed at the door, often at high APRs
The Geko online way
- No one comes to your house until install day
- Quote sent by email. Take a week, take a month. Your call
- Sized + designed in-house by a qualified engineer
- Written proposal with one total price
- Finance options shown alongside outright purchase, no preference
FAQ
Buying solar online: your questions.
Can I buy solar online in the UK without anyone visiting?
Yes. Every part of the buying decision happens by video call and email. The only on-site visit is the install itself. A qualified in-house engineer sizes the system from satellite roof imagery and your bill data, with the total price in writing. If you'd like an in-person survey before signing we'll do one, but you don't need one for an accurate quote.
How does a virtual solar consultation work?
A 30-minute video call with a Geko engineer. We share-screen your roof on a satellite map and walk through panel placement, sizing and how it fits your usage. Your last electricity bill goes into the calculation, so the savings figures are personalised. You'll see what the install would look like before we talk price.
Is buying solar online cheaper than the traditional doorstep route?
Usually, yes. Traditional solar sales bake the rep's commission (typically 10–18% of the system price) into your quote. Our virtual model removes that line item. The quote you receive is the same quote if you sign next month.
What if my roof needs an in-person survey?
Some properties do: listed buildings, conservation areas, unusual roof shapes or non-standard rafter spacing. We'll flag this on the video call and book a free site survey before any contract is signed.
Can I get an online solar quote with my postcode?
Yes. Enter your postcode and we'll come back within 24 hours with a likely system size + savings estimate based on a UK average roof for your area. The 30-minute consultation turns that ballpark into an exact quote.
How do you handle install certification?
Every install is designed and signed off by a qualified in-house engineer to UK industry standards. We issue the certification documents you need to register for the Smart Export Guarantee.
What you're covered by
Aiko and DMEGC panels with a 25-year manufacturer warranty, plus manufacturer cover on the inverter and battery. Read the full breakdown on our solar & battery full-spec page.
