Why Heliobond How it works Compare quotes FAQ
Nigeria's COREN-verified solar network
Free for homes, businesses & communities

Your solar installer
should answer to
more than just you.

In Nigeria, most solar installers have no professional licence and nothing at stake when they disappoint you. Heliobond fixes that. Every installer on our platform is COREN-accredited, and they compete for your project, so you get the best terms from someone legally accountable to deliver them.

What's really at stake

What happens when an installer answers to no one

You pay millions of naira for a solar system. The wrong installer leaves you with no warranty, no support, and no legal basis to do anything about it.

No certification means no consequence

An uncertified installer has no professional body, no licence at risk, and no obligation to uphold any standard. They can collect your deposit, do poor work, and walk away. Your only recourse is hoping they pick up the phone.

The quote that grows once you've committed

You agreed ₦3.5 million. Work begins. New material costs appear. By installation day, you owe ₦4.8 million. Without a certified professional and a documented contract, you have no legal standing to dispute a single naira.

Three months in. System down. Number switched off.

A fault develops. A panel underperforms. An inverter trips. You call your installer. Then call again. The number goes unanswered, then disconnected. This is the most common story we hear from people who came to us after the damage was done.

A verbal warranty is a verbal promise. Nothing more.

Any installer can say the words "7-year warranty." Without a COREN-registered engineer and proper documentation, there is no legal mechanism to enforce it. When something breaks in year two, you have nothing to stand on.

You don't have to go into this unprotected. Every installer on Heliobond is COREN-certified, legally accountable, and free to find.
The Heliobond standard

We only work with engineers who have something to lose.

Most engineers operating in Nigeria's solar market are not COREN registered. COREN (the Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria) is the government body that licences professional engineers. A COREN-registered engineer has their career, their reputation, and their licence on the line for every job they take. That is the standard every Heliobond installer must meet before we send them to you.

COREN Accredited Network
Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria

If a COREN-registered engineer ghosts you, fails to honour a warranty, or delivers substandard work, they can be reported directly to COREN. They face formal investigation, sanctions, and potential licence revocation. Their entire professional career is at stake. That is what makes their promises worth something.

We verify every installer's COREN registration number and active licence status directly before they can operate on our platform. Not as a formality. Because your investment deserves that standard.

A warranty with teeth

A COREN engineer's warranty is a formal, written commitment backed by a government licensing body. Break it, and they risk their career, not just their reputation. That is the difference between a guarantee and a real obligation.

An engineer who has to pick up the phone

After installation, your COREN engineer is professionally obligated to remain reachable. A panel fault in year 2, an inverter issue in year 3. Those are not your problems to solve alone. They are your engineer's professional responsibility.

The price in the document is the price you pay

Every quote is formal, written, and signed before work begins. No additional charges discovered mid-installation. No last-minute additions at handover. What was agreed at the start is what you settle at the end.

We don't introduce you and disappear

We walk you through every proposal, explain every line, and answer every question before any introduction is made. You meet your installer when you have decided, not when someone needs to make a sale.

FAQ

Questions we get asked a lot

Why does COREN certification matter so much?
COREN (the Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria) is the official government body that licenses professional engineers. Only COREN-registered engineers are legally qualified to design, install, and certify engineering works in Nigeria. More importantly, they can be reported, sanctioned, and have their licence revoked for professional misconduct. That gives your warranty and all their commitments real, enforceable legal weight.
What exactly does 'legally accountable' mean?
A COREN-registered engineer's entire career and licence depends on maintaining professional integrity. If they ghost you after installation, fail to honour a warranty, or misrepresent their services, they can be formally reported to COREN and face disciplinary action, including prosecution and licence revocation. This is real accountability, not just a policy statement.
How does the quote comparison work?
You submit one short form with your power needs, zone, and budget. We then do the legwork: identifying COREN-certified installers in your area, gathering their quotes, and presenting them in a clear, standardised comparison. No chasing, no inconsistent formats, no guesswork on your part.
When do I actually speak to an installer?
Only when you're ready. We guide you through the entire process, explaining proposals, answering questions and helping you evaluate options, before any formal introduction is made. You are never pressured to commit before you feel completely confident.
What payment / installment options are available?
Through our installment finance partner network, you can spread the cost of your solar system over 12–36 months, starting with a down payment from 30%. Exact terms depend on the finance partner and your personal profile. We help identify the best match for your specific budget and circumstances.
Is Heliobond free to use?
Yes. Free to submit a request, free to receive your quote comparison, free to ask questions, free to choose your installer. No sign-up fee, no commission charged to you, no hidden costs at any point. We are paid by the installer network, not by you.
What if something goes wrong after installation?
This is exactly where COREN certification matters. If your installer fails to honour a warranty, goes unreachable, or delivers work that does not meet the agreed standard, you can formally report them to COREN. This triggers a professional disciplinary process that can result in sanctions and licence revocation. You are not left fighting alone. The engineering profession's regulatory body is on your side. We also remain in contact after your installation and will assist you in escalating any issue.
What zones and states do you cover?
All 36 states and the FCT, across all 6 geopolitical zones: South West, South East, South South, North Central, North East, and North West. We have verified COREN-certified installers operating across every region.
