Less hassle. Better outcomes.

No off-the-shelf packages. No pushy sales. Just a clear starting point, honest advice, and a system designed around your usage and tariff.

Why homeowners across Exeter and Devon choose us

Most installers sell you hardware. We start with your house, your habits, and your tariff - and design a system that actually fits.

1. Independent advice, not a sales pitch

We specify what fits your property and tariff, not what we need to shift this month. If the numbers don't work, we'll say so before you spend a penny.

2. Outcome-driven, not hardware-driven

We predict performance, commission properly, and show you the results with monitoring and a clear handover. The goal is measurable savings, not a box on your roof.

3. Commissioning is where the savings are won

Panels on a roof are half the story. We configure monitoring, battery charging, export settings, and scheduling to work with your tariff and routines. This is where most installers stop. It's where we start paying attention.

4. Evidence Pack handover

Every job ends with a clear Evidence Pack: install photos, commissioning record, settings, warranties, certificates, and a monitoring guide. Everything you need for warranty claims, insurance, EPC updates, or selling your home.

5. Local, tidy, and guaranteed

Based in Exeter and Devon. We know South West housing stock — slate roofs, coastal weather, rural grid constraints, heritage considerations. Neat cable runs, labelled isolators, sensible routes, and a 10-year workmanship guarantee (insurance-backed).

6. Quality equipment from trusted manufacturers

We use panels, inverters, and batteries from manufacturers with proven UK track records — Aiko, Eurener, Trina, Longi and Jinko. Chosen for performance, warranty, and spares availability — not the cheapest option on the day.

5/5

Watt & Waves looked at how we use electricity, not just our roof, to design the right solution. The install went smoothly and the handover made everything crystal clear. We are already seeing a real difference in our bills.

5/5

Tidy install, no mess, and they commissioned everything properly before they left. They set up monitoring so we could see it working from day one. No hard sell — just honest advice about what would and wouldn't work for our house. Recommended.

5/5

We weren't sure if a battery was worth it. They ran the numbers for our tariff and showed us exactly where the savings would come from. Really straightforward process from start to finish. Super pleased!
