Why I do this.

Z

From your consultant

I've spent 20 years in the electrical industry. I started as an apprentice electrician, worked my way through installations, and moved into electrical design. I've seen every kind of job โ€” good, bad, and dangerous.

I started ZESTEC because I kept seeing homeowners getting poor advice, paying too much, or agreeing to work they didn't understand. There was nobody offering independent, jargon-free guidance without trying to sell them something at the same time.

I'm not here to sell you solar panels or a rewire. I'm here to make sure that whatever you're having done, it's right, it's safe, and it's fair. If your contractor's quote is spot on, I'll tell you that too.

Questions homeowners ask us.

Do I really need a design review before getting solar panels?

It depends. If you've had a quote from an MCS-accredited installer with good reviews, the design is likely fine. But if you've had multiple conflicting quotes, or something doesn't feel right, a ยฃ150 review could save you thousands in rework. Think of it as a second opinion from a GP before surgery.

How long does the review take?

Most reviews are completed within 3โ€“5 working days. You'll receive a written report by email with clear findings and recommendations.

What if my installer disagrees with your findings?

That's absolutely fine โ€” and it happens. Our report gives you the technical basis for the conversation. A good installer will welcome an independent check.

Do you do installations or sell equipment?

No โ€” and that's the whole point. We're completely independent. We don't install anything, sell any products, or take referral fees from contractors.

Can I just call you for a quick chat before deciding?

Absolutely. We offer a free 15-minute initial phone consultation for all services. No obligation.

What areas do you cover?

We work remotely across the entire UK. Since our service is design review and consultation rather than physical installation, we can help homeowners anywhere.
