What this site does
Submit an enquiry as a homeowner in Godalming or a nearby town or village, and it gets forwarded to a local installer who covers that patch. From there, the installer reaches out directly, and everything from design to specification to pricing is worked out between the two of you, not routed back through this site.
How this site is funded
Homeowners aren't charged anything to use this site. Instead, it's funded through a referral fee that a participating installer may pay once an enquiry is passed on to them.
Why use a referral site
Instead of tracking down and contacting several installers one by one, a homeowner can submit a single enquiry and be matched with a local installer covering their particular town or village. That said, comparing quotes from more than one installer before committing remains a sensible step.
