Everything you need to know about getting solar panels installed for your home
Hi, we're Ben and Jake, your friendly solar installers! ‐--------- We're super busy at the moment and not on Bark as much as we've like, so please find us on Google and call directly. Thank you! --------- We specialise in the installation of domestic and off-grid solar PV and Battery Energy Storage Systems. We pride ourselves on the speed, value and reliability of our repair service, so if you've been told by another company that your system needs replacing give us a call and we'll see if we can fix it first. We will never try to sell you anything that you don't need and our aftermarket customer care is the best around! All our solar installations include a free safety inspection and service after 1 year and 5 years, and we have a great 10 year insurance backed workmanship warranty - that's 8 years more than the industry standard! We've got no hidden charges and no confusing prices! Thanks! Ben and Jake
We think there are three things any solar company should prioritise: customers, staff, and the environment. Having subcontacted for a lot of solar companies we often found that at least one of those would be left at the wayside. We're aiming to achieve all three.
We quote for and design your system, but we're also the people who'll come to install it, we know the practical ins and outs of solar installation like no salesman around.
We pride ourselves on having the best aftercare service available, if there is ever a problem we will be there as soon as possible.
Also we will come and visit for an inspection after 1 year and after 5 years, complety free of charge.
We can provide advice over the phone or online, and we have a range of tools and forms that you can use to estimate your energy usage and work out what products will work best for you.
We're operating as normal, but carrying face masks whenever we're working so we can put one on when working indoors. We will happily take extra precautions if you or a family member are particularly vulnerable.
Do I need planning permission to install solar panels?
Solar panel installation typically falls under permitted development rights, so planning permission isn’t usually required. However, you’ll need to check that the area you live hasn’t had permitted development rights removed. If this is the case, you’ll need to apply for planning permission. If you’re unsure, it’s best to contact your Local Planning Authority for advice.
What direction should my house face for solar panels?
The best way for solar panels to face is south. This is because south-facing solar panels will get the most possible sunlight through the day and generate the most energy. East and west-facing roofs may also be considered acceptable for solar panel installation, although they will generate around 15% less energy than south-facing solar panels.
How long do solar panels last?
The average life of a solar panel is between 25 and 30 years. This depends on the quality and make of the solar panels so it’s a good idea to check with the manufacturer about the estimated life of your chosen panels. Most solar panels will also come with a warranty, during which they will be repaired or replaced without charge if a problem occurs.
