Frequently asked questions

Grants, installation day, and general questions — answered honestly.

SEAI Grants
How much is the SEAI solar grant in 2026?

Up to €1,800, calculated as €700 per kWp for the first 2kWp, then €200 per kWp up to 4kWp. Systems of 4kWp or larger receive the full €1,800.

Do I need to apply before work starts?

Yes — you need SEAI's Letter of Offer in hand before any installation begins. We handle this application for you.

Is my home eligible?

Generally yes if it was built and occupied before 2021, has a valid MPRN, and hasn't previously claimed solar PV funding at that address. Landlords and management companies can qualify too.

Installation
How long does installation take?

Most home installs are completed in a single day. Many installers split the job across several visits: a roofer first, an electrician another day, then a return trip to finish. We don't. Our team arrives in the morning and finishes the same day. Larger systems or added batteries can take a little longer, and we will confirm timing when we quote.

Will it damage my roof?

No — panels are mounted using standard, roof-safe fixings by our Safe Electric certified crew.

What happens on the day?

Our crew installs the panels, inverter and wiring, then tests the full system before handover.

General
Do you serve my area?

We cover all 12 Leinster counties: Dublin, Meath, Kildare, Wicklow, Wexford, Kilkenny, Carlow, Laois, Offaly, Westmeath, Longford and Louth.

Is a battery worth adding?

Depends on your usage pattern — it's most valuable for households with high evening electricity use. We'll give honest advice either way.

What warranty is included?

Warranty terms are set out in your individual contract, covering both workmanship and equipment.
