Installing solar panels is a big decision, but the process itself doesn’t have to be complicated.
At Sheerwater Solar, we’ve designed our installation process to be simple, transparent and tailored to every property. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all systems, we take the time to understand your home, recommend the right products and guide you through every stage from your initial survey to the day your system starts generating clean electricity.
Here’s exactly what you can expect.
Every home is different, which is why every project starts with a professional survey.
Before recommending solar panels, we’ll visit your property to assess whether solar is the right solution for you. We don’t believe in selling systems that won’t deliver real value, so we’ll carry out a thorough assessment before moving forward.
During your survey, we’ll look at:
By understanding how your home performs today, we can determine whether solar panels are likely to provide worthwhile savings in the future.
As the Energy Saving Trust recommends, a professional assessment is an important part of designing a solar PV system that performs efficiently over the long term.
Not all solar panels and inverters are the same.
Once we’ve assessed your property, we’ll recommend the equipment that’s best suited to your home, energy usage and budget.
We’ll explain:
Rather than overwhelming you with technical jargon, we’ll explain everything clearly so you can make an informed decision.
Once we’ve agreed on the most suitable system, we’ll prepare a detailed written quotation.
This includes:
We’ll also answer any questions you have before you decide whether you’d like to move forward.
There are no hidden costs or unexpected extras, just clear, honest advice to help you make the right decision for your home.
Once you’re happy to proceed and your deposit has been received, we’ll order your chosen equipment.
Depending on the project, your solar panels may be delivered directly to your property or to our premises before installation.
We’ll also confirm your installation date and keep you informed throughout, so you know exactly what to expect before work begins.
Installation day is where everything comes together. Our experienced team will carefully install your new solar panel system, whether you’ve chosen an in-roof or on-roof solution.
The installation typically includes:
We’ll also connect your system to the internet, allowing you to monitor your electricity generation and energy usage in real time through a dedicated app.
Online monitoring has another benefit too. If a technical issue ever develops, it can often be identified remotely, helping resolve problems more quickly and reducing unnecessary disruption.
Once your system has been fully tested, we’ll provide all the relevant documentation, including:
We’ll also explain how to monitor your system and answer any questions you may have about getting the most from your solar investment. If you’re eligible, we’ll guide you through the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), which allows homeowners to receive payments for exporting surplus electricity back to the grid.
Installing solar panels should feel straightforward from the very beginning.
At Sheerwater Solar, we combine years of roofing and electrical expertise with a commitment to honest advice, quality workmanship and exceptional customer service. Every installation is carefully designed around your property to ensure you receive a system that’s both efficient and built to last.
From your first survey through to switching your system on, we’ll guide you through every step of the process.
