Every now and then, someone pops up on Facebook with a gripe:<\/p>\n

“SolarQuotes lets installers in their network who work from home!!! \ud83e\udd2c”<\/p>\n

Apparently, not having a warehouse means you’re not a ‘real’ business. Or worse, a fly-by-night operator waiting to disappear the moment the inverter fails.<\/p>\n

I get the concern. For a while, we rejected any installer without commercial premises. If you didn’t have a warehouse, you didn’t make the cut.<\/p>\n

But over time, we realised our approach was too simplistic.<\/p>\n

Lean And Local<\/h2>\n

Some of the best local solar installers – who take pride in their work, provide real after-sales support, and build strong reputations – start out working from home (usually after years on the tools for someone else).<\/p>\n

And some choose to stay working out of their garage. Not because they’re dodgy, but because they’re focused on their long game: a sustainable, small local business with low overheads.<\/p>\n

Small-scale residential solar is about good system design, understanding the standards, tidy installs, clear communication, and helping when something goes wrong. None of that requires a warehouse, not when your local solar distributor already has one.<\/p>\n

In fact, starting from home can make an installer more financially resilient in the early years. Leaner overheads can free up margin – to invest in better gear, take the time to do things properly, and weather slow months – all important in a volatile industry like solar.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen it again and again: sole traders who start small, do things right, and grow into brilliant, medium-sized traditional solar businesses with a warehouse, admin team, and in-house installers.<\/p>\n

That makes me happier than almost anything else in this business.<\/p>\n

The SolarQuotes team regularly have work-from-home days mixed with time in the office, including resident fact-checking guru Ronald Brakels, pictured above (Ronald is the hairy one).<\/p><\/div>\n

No Compromise On Standards<\/h2>\n

Of course, we still vet every installer thoroughly, and we still welcome great medium- to large-sized companies.<\/p>\n

And our standards haven’t dropped, they’ve got stricter. We care about installation quality, responsiveness, customer service, licensing, and how they treat people. Whether they work from a garage or a warehouse, the bar is high.<\/p>\n

The SolarQuotes model doesn’t pick a winner. When we can, we\u2019ll get you quotes from smaller and mid-sized businesses. And from larger ones, when they do things right. You can compare quotes, check reviews<\/a>, and choose what works for you.1<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

What matters isn\u2019t where a business operates from. It\u2019s whether they show up, do the job well, and stand by their work.<\/p>\n

That’s what we look for.<\/p>\n

And that’s what Facebook commenters should care about too.<\/p>\n
