Frequently asked questions
Is Contact Solar registered with RECC or HIES?
RECC (Renewable Energy Consumer Code) and HIES (Home Insulation & Energy Systems) are the two main consumer protection codes for UK renewables installers. Check the RECC register at recc.org.uk or HIES register at hies.co.uk by company name. Membership of either gives you escalation routes and deposit protection.
How do I verify Contact Solar on Companies House?
Search 'find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk' for the trading name. Look at incorporation date, current status (Active vs Liquidation/Dissolved), most recent accounts filing, and director list. A long-trading limited company with up-to-date accounts is a safer signal than a recently incorporated firm.
How long is the typical wait for an install with Contact Solar?
Lead times for Greater Manchester renewables installers swing seasonally — late spring and early summer are peak demand. Ask Contact Solar directly for current scheduling once you've got a written quote. Plan for 4–12 weeks from deposit to install on a typical residential project; complex roofs or DNO upgrades can extend that.
Does Contact Solar offer Insurance Backed Guarantees (IBG)?
An IBG is essential — it covers the workmanship warranty if the installer ceases trading. MCS-certified installers usually offer IBG via the MCS scheme. Confirm Contact Solar provides an IBG certificate at handover; don't accept a workmanship guarantee that's only as good as the installer's continued existence.
Does Contact Solar handle Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) registration?
SEG registration is usually handled by your electricity supplier rather than your installer, but Contact Solar should provide the MCS certificate and inverter performance data your supplier will request. Ask Contact Solar whether they walk customers through the SEG paperwork as part of handover.
