Family-Run Since Day One

The Team Behind Solar Xtra

We're a family-run renewable energy company based in Solihull, with over 15 years of hands-on experience designing and installing solar, battery, and heat pump systems across the UK. No call-centre script, no subcontracted install teams — just the same people from your first call to the final sign-off.

Our Story

From a Single Van to a UK-Wide Team

Solar Xtra started the way most family businesses do — with one van, one installer, and a lot of word-of-mouth referrals around Solihull. Over 15 years later, that same hands-on approach still shapes how every job is run, even as the team and coverage area have grown.

We never set out to become the biggest installer in the Midlands. We set out to be the one people actually trust — the one where the person who surveys your roof is still reachable years later if something needs checking under warranty.

What Drives Us

Our Mission & Vision

Our Mission

To make renewable energy simple, honest, and genuinely tailored to every property we work on — no fixed packages, no pressure, no guesswork. Every system starts with a proper survey, not a sales script.

Our Vision

A UK where every suitable home and business generates its own clean energy — supported by installers who are still around for the warranty call, not just the sale.

Our Values

What We Stand For

The principles that shape every survey, quote, and installation we carry out.

Honesty First

No hidden extras, no pressure upsells. The quote you're given is the price you pay.

Real Craftsmanship

Every install is carried out by the same specialist team who surveyed and designed it.

Family Values

We treat every customer's home the way we'd want our own family's home treated.

Built to Last

We're still here for the warranty call, not just the sale — long after the install is done.

Accountability

If anything underperforms, the same team that installed it resolves the issue — no passing the buck.

Sustainability

We're in the business of reducing carbon footprints — starting with how we run our own operation.
