FAQs
What areas around Speedwell do you cover for solar panel installation?
We serve all of Speedwell and the surrounding communities within a 40-mile radius, including Bristol, Kingswood, Yate, Thornbury, and Weston-super-Mare. If you’re unsure whether your property falls within our service zone, just give us a call—our team will confirm availability or arrange a special visit if feasible.
How long does a typical residential solar installation take from start to finish?
From the moment you approve the quote, most residential projects in Speedwell are completed within 4–6 weeks. That timeline includes the site survey, system design, planning permission (if required), equipment delivery, roof and electrical work, system commissioning, and your final hand-over session. The actual on-site installation usually takes two to three days for an average 4 kW array.
Will my roof in Speedwell need reinforcement before panels can be installed?
In many cases, pitched roofs built after the 1980s already meet structural requirements. During our free survey we inspect rafters, trusses, and covering materials. If reinforcement is needed, we’ll provide a detailed report and quote for any bracing or joist upgrades. These measures protect both your home and your solar investment, and all work is carried out by qualified carpenters in accordance with UK building regulations.
How much will I save on my electricity bills with solar panels?
Savings vary with roof orientation, shading, system size, and household consumption. A typical 4 kW system in Speedwell generates about 3,600 kWh per year, offsetting roughly £500–£700 in annual electricity costs at current tariffs. If you enroll in the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), you’ll earn extra by selling surplus power back to the grid, boosting overall savings.
Do you handle all permits and grid-connection paperwork?
Yes. We manage every administrative step: planning applications (if your property is listed or in a conservation area), building control notices, Distribution Network Operator (DNO) approval (G99/G98 forms), and Smart Export Guarantee registration. You simply review and sign the prepared documents—we take care of submission and follow-ups.
What warranties and after-sales support do you provide?
Our solar panels carry a 25-year performance warranty, and inverters are covered for 10–12 years depending on the model. All workmanship is protected by a 10-year insurance-backed guarantee through the Renewable Energy Consumer Code (RECC). We also offer a free 12-month system health check and optional remote monitoring packages to ensure your array continues to perform at peak efficiency.
