The useful bits, in plain English.
Here’s one small part of a fictional example. The full check shows what the quote says, what can be worked out and what still needs an answer.

Which installation work is included in that price?
“Why is this battery the right size for my home?”
What are you buying?
Panels, inverter, battery, warranties and the work included in the price. If the exact model or scope is unclear, you’ll see that.
Do the numbers add up?
We separate figures written in the quote from calculations and estimates, including finance and projected savings where shown.
What should you ask?
Get a short list of points to clarify in writing before you commit. A missing detail in an upload may simply be on another page.
Put them side by side.
Compare what each includes, where they differ and what might explain the gap in price.
We’ll say when the quote doesn’t tell us enough.
QuoteCalm doesn’t inspect your roof, verify an installer’s current credentials or guarantee the savings in a proposal. We don’t pretend to know the going local price for a package without enough comparable evidence.
We don’t sell installations or pass your contact details to installers. QuoteCalm was started in Reading by David McGlashan after he struggled to make sense of solar quotations for his own home.
