Delivery and Installation of Solar Panels
Switching to solar should feel straightforward, from the moment you place an order to the day your system starts producing clean electricity. Our team handles the full delivery and installation of solar panels for homes and businesses, coordinating logistics, safety, and electrical commissioning so you get a reliable system without hassle. We work to protect your property, keep timelines clear, and install equipment to a high standard that supports long term performance.
What We Deliver and How We Prepare
Every successful installation starts with careful planning and proper handling of materials. Solar panels are durable in use, but they must be transported and stored correctly to avoid microcracks, damaged connectors, or moisture issues. We schedule delivery to match your installation date, confirm access and unloading points, and check that all components arrive complete and undamaged.
Site checks and system planning
Before installation, we confirm the key conditions that influence output and safety. This includes roof orientation, shading, structural condition, and cable routes to the inverter and consumer unit. If your property includes related building services, we can coordinate timing with hvac services work so trades do not interfere with each other and access equipment remains protected.
- Roof suitability assessment, including mounting zones and waterproofing approach
- Electrical plan for inverter placement, isolators, earthing, and monitoring
- Access planning for scaffolding, lifts, and safe work areas
- Documentation review for warranties, product serials, and commissioning steps
Professional Installation From Mounting to Commissioning
Our installers follow a structured process designed to keep your home or site safe while delivering a neat, durable finish. We use approved mounting hardware, torque settings, and weatherproof penetrations. Cable runs are kept tidy and protected, and we aim to place inverters where they have good airflow and are easy to service.
Step by step installation process
- Set up safety systems including scaffolding, edge protection, and controlled work zones.
- Install roof mounts and rails with correct spacing, alignment, and waterproofing measures.
- Fit and secure panels with clamps and checks for consistent array geometry.
- Run DC and AC cabling using UV resistant conduit where required and safe routing through the building.
- Install inverter and protection including isolators and surge protection where specified.
- Test and commission by verifying polarity, insulation resistance, system startup, and monitoring connection.
Where a project includes heat pumps or other building upgrades, we can align schedules with heating services to reduce disruption and keep your energy improvements moving in one coordinated plan.
Quality, Safety, and Compliance You Can Rely On
Solar installations must perform efficiently while meeting strict safety expectations. We prioritise secure mounting, proper earthing, correct cable management, and clear labeling. Throughout the work, we keep the site organised and minimise downtime for your household or operations.
- Workmanship checks for mounting integrity, weather sealing, and cable protection
- Electrical verification including functional tests and safe isolation points
- System handover with guidance on inverter operation and monitoring basics
- Warranty support by documenting installed components and commissioning results
If your property uses mechanical ventilation or cooling, inverter placement and airflow matter. We can help you avoid heat buildup and conflicts with plant rooms or attic equipment, and we can liaise with ventilation services providers when layout changes are needed.
Aftercare and Ongoing Support
Once your system is running, we stay available for questions and practical support. We explain how to read performance data, what seasonal changes to expect, and when it may be worth adding battery storage later. If an alert appears on your monitoring app, we can help you troubleshoot quickly and, if needed, arrange a site visit.
How to get the best performance
- Keep panels clear of heavy debris and check for unusual shading changes, like new tree growth.
- Review monitoring monthly to spot dips early and protect long term yield.
- Schedule periodic inspections if your site has harsh coastal weather, high winds, or frequent roof traffic.
From careful delivery to a clean, safe installation and a clear handover, we make it easy to start generating solar power with confidence.
FAQ
How long does a typical solar panel installation take?
Most residential installs are completed in one to two days once the site is ready and materials are on hand. Larger arrays or complex roof access can take longer. We confirm a schedule in advance and keep you updated throughout.
Do I need to be at home during delivery and installation?
It is helpful for access and a quick walkthrough, but it is not always required if we can safely access the work area. We will agree entry points, parking, and any site rules before the team arrives. You will be present for the final handover and basic system briefing.
What happens if my roof needs repairs before panels can be fitted?
We will flag any concerns during the pre installation check and recommend addressing them before mounting hardware is installed. Minor fixes can often be handled quickly, while bigger repairs may require rescheduling. This prevents leaks and protects both your roof and your solar warranty.
