Plenty of solar companies do a good job. But too often, the experience still feels like a hardware sale: measure the roof, fit a system, and move on. If you're lucky, you get a folder of documents you'll never use.
We started Watt & Waves because we kept seeing the same problem: homeowners investing a significant amount in solar and still being left guessing what they'd actually get - and installers who didn't stick around to make sure the system was working as promised.
The issue isn't usually the hardware. It's everything that happens around it.
Matt Holloway founded Watt & Waves in 2024 after years spent around residential electrical work, retrofit projects, and homeowner-facing design decisions in the South West. He saw too many people committing serious money to solar without getting straight answers on performance, workmanship, or what handover would look like once the installers had gone.
We believe the job isn't done when the panels are on the roof. It's done when you can see the system is working, understand what normal looks like, and have everything you need for warranty claims, insurance, or selling your home. That's why every installation ends with an Evidence Pack - not a folder of paperwork, but a clear record of what was installed, how it's configured, and what it's producing.
