Solar Panel Installation - How It Works
Solar PV is state-of-the-art technology. It’s intricate, fascinating and constantly evolving.
But we never want our customers to feel unclear or out of their depth. That’s why we keep things simple, transparent and, well, human.
Here’s exactly what you can expect if you choose to move forward with us.
-
1. We’ll let you know what’s available.
Not all buildings are suitable for solar panels, and we don’t want to take your money unless we can actually help. So we’ll come to you, and assess your property before we go any further.
We’ll look at the structure of your roof, the integrity of your electrical wiring, and your annual electricity usage. We’ll also assess the amount and quality of daylight your roof gets.
When we have the information we need, we’ll be able to let you know whether solar panels would be a worthwhile investment for you.
-
2. We’ll identify what's suitable for your property
There are many different types of solar panel and inverter, and their availability fluctuates.
Based on our initial assessments and conversations, we’ll identify the most suitable panels and inverters available, and let you know why we’re recommending them.
-
3. We’ll crunch the numbers
Once you’ve given us the go-ahead, we’ll calculate the cost of procuring and installing the solar panels for you.
We’ll put all this into a written quotation, which we’ll e-mail to you. That’ll also include an estimate for your payback period, i.e. the time your panels will take to recoup the installation cost.
-
4. We’ll order your solar panels
When we’re good to go and you’ve paid your upfront 25% deposit, we’ll order your panels for you.
Depending on the logistics, we could either get them sent to our offices, or to your property. The latter would mean fewer emissions, but we understand it’s not always feasible.
-
5. We’ll install them for you
On a date that works for you, we’ll install your new solar panel system either in or on your roof, depending on what you’d prefer. We champion the former because it looks the part, and adds a little style and finesse.
We’ll also connect your system to the internet, so you can track your energy production and usage in real time. Being online also means any technical issues can be identified remotely and instantly, saving you time and minimising stress.

What happens next?
In most cases, we’ll need to conduct an on-site survey at your property to assess the feasibility and provide you with a tailored quote. This visit allows us to understand your specific needs and explore the potential for renewable energy solutions. Following the survey, we’ll discuss the best options for integrating solar energy into your property, including detailed costs and the installation process.
