Eastleigh is more than just a railway town; it is a rapidly growing community with a diverse mix of housing stock. From the classic Victorian terraces in the town centre to the modern detached family homes in Chandler's Ford and Boyatt Wood, every roof presents a unique challenge.
Unlike national solar companies that operate via generic call centers, Starks Solar is a local, family-run business. We understand the specific energy needs of Eastleigh residents. Whether you are commuting via the M3/M27 and need an EV charger, or you are looking to lower the bills of a larger property in Fair Oak, we have the local expertise to design the perfect system.
We Engineer Systems, We Don't Just Sell Panels
Our approach is consultative. We don't employ pushy salespeople. Instead, we use advanced satellite modelling to analyze your roof's pitch, orientation, and potential shading from nearby trees or buildings typical in leafy areas like Hiltingbury.
- No Subcontractors: Our in-house team handles everything from design to MCS sign-off.
- Local Knowledge: We are familiar with Eastleigh Borough Council planning guidelines.
- Bird Proofing Included: We protect your investment from local wildlife as standard.
- Rapid Support: Being local means we are just around the corner if you need us.

Protecting Your Roof: Bird Proofing
Eastleigh's location near the River Itchen and the coast means that seagull and pigeon populations can be significant. Unfortunately, solar panels offer a warm, sheltered spot that birds love to nest under.
Nesting birds can cause significant issues, including:
- Damage to cables and connectors, leading to system faults.
- buildup of guano (droppings) which reduces panel efficiency.
- Noise nuisance and blocked gutters.
Our Promise: Unlike many competitors who charge extra for this service, Starks Solar includes high-quality bird protection mesh with every residential install in Eastleigh. We believe in doing the job right the first time.
Our 4-Step Process
We analyze your property remotely to provide a detailed, fixed-price proposal. No high-pressure sales visits.
Once you accept the quote, our lead electrician visits your Eastleigh home to verify the roof structure and electrics.
Our team installs your system efficiently, usually within 1-2 days, respecting your property and neighbours.
We set up your monitoring app, issue your MCS certificate for SEG payments, and provide a 30-year workmanship warranty.
Battery Storage Installation in Eastleigh
For many residents in Eastleigh and Chandler's Ford, the daily routine involves commuting to work, meaning the house is often empty when the sun is shining brightest. Without a battery, that valuable solar energy is exported to the grid for pennies.
The Solution? A high-capacity battery storage system. By installing technology from Sigenergy, GivEnergy, or Tesla, you can capture that free energy and use it to power your home in the evening when rates are highest.
- Self-Sufficiency: Reduce your reliance on the grid by up to 80%.
- Smart Tariffs: Utilize tariffs like Octopus Agile to charge your battery overnight at super-cheap rates (sometimes as low as 7p/kWh).
- Backup Power: Protect your home against power cuts with Emergency Power Supply (EPS) functionality.
Our systems are compact, safe, and can be installed in garages, utility rooms, or lofts throughout the Eastleigh area.
