Solar & batterySolar panels and a battery on your new roof
If you are replacing an asbestos roof anyway, it is worth planning solar before the new roof goes on. We are not a solar installer. With your consent we pass your details to a separate MCS-certified installer who will talk to you about panels and an optional battery.
How the job runs.
1. Tell us your plan
Tick the solar box on the quote form.
2. Roof first
The contractor quotes removal and a new roof suitable for panels.
3. Installer calls
A separate MCS-certified installer contacts you about panels and a battery.
4. You decide
Nothing is agreed until you accept a written quote from each party.

What affects the price.
The contractor confirms a written price after seeing your photos. Prices on this site are guides only.
- Roof direction, pitch and shading
- Strength and condition of the roof structure
- Your electricity use and wiring
- Whether you want a battery
- Eligibility for export payments (depends on installer and supplier)
Good to know.
Will solar save me money?
It depends on your roof, usage and tariff. We make no promises about savings. The installer will give you their own estimate.
Do I need a battery?
No, it is optional. A battery stores spare daytime power for the evening. The installer will tell you whether it makes sense for your use.
Do I need an MCS installer?
MCS certification is generally needed to be eligible for export payments. Ask the installer to confirm.
Send a photo of your roof.
A local contractor reviews your photos and contacts you. No obligation.
