How do you charge for solar panels is it per panel? See more and more of these popping up on residential homes.

Yeah, purely commercial for now. There definitely is no one doing what I am doing for BG, well, more specifically British Gas Solar. I was at their solar head office this week with the chiefs sorting it all.

Cheers Simon. Haymaker! I love it!   ;D ;D ;D
I have had more than a few doubters on here and other forums and still others who think I was blagging/bluffing about solar cleaning.

I had done my research, knew my market and knew how to pitch it. It has taken over 3 years of research, but I landed a good fish and there are still others in the pond to get!
