Installing solar panels isn’t simply a case of choosing a system and waiting for someone to put it on your roof. Before installation day arrives, there are usually consultations, surveys, system designs, quotes and paperwork to work through, followed by commissioning and a final handover once everything is up and running.
Choosing one of the best solar panel installers is therefore an important first step. A good installer should assess your roof and electricity use, explain the system they’re recommending and give you a clear idea of the costs and likely savings. It’s also worth understanding how much solar panels cost before comparing quotes: a typical system for a three-bedroom UK home currently costs around £6,500 to £9,000 installed, although batteries, roof complexity and system size can push that higher.
