Our process

  1. 1
    Site survey

    A named FLD engineer visits your site, measures the roof or installation zone, inspects the incoming supply and verifies load, structural integrity and orientation. For commercial sites we run a full discovery including half-hourly consumption data where available.

  2. 2
    Design and proposal

    We produce a scaled layout, generation model using PVGIS data, financial model with simple and post-tax payback, DNO G99 or G98 notification pack where relevant, and a fixed-price quotation. Every proposal names the exact panels, inverters and mounting system.

  3. 3
    DNO and planning

    We handle NGED G99 Type A applications for commercial systems, G98 notifications for domestic, and any permitted development confirmation or full planning submissions required for listed buildings or conservation areas.

  4. 4
    Install and commission

    FLD directly-employed engineers install under a single NICEIC Approved Contractor sign-off. Commissioning includes BS 7671 testing, SolarEdge monitoring portal setup, MCS certification where applicable, and handover of all documentation.

  5. 5
    Aftercare

    Insurance-backed NICEIC warranty, 25-to-30-year panel performance warranty from the tier-1 manufacturer, 12-year SolarEdge inverter warranty, and ongoing O and M support including remote performance monitoring.

Frequently asked questions

BS 7671 recommends a maximum of five years for most commercial premises. Industrial sites are typically every three years. Some high-risk environments such as petrol stations and healthcare settings are annual. Welsh landlords have additional obligations under the Electrical Safety Standards in the Private Rented Sector (Wales) Regulations and under the Welsh Housing Quality Standard 2023.

NICEIC is the UK's most recognised certification body for electrical installers. An NICEIC Approved Contractor has been audited on competence, quality management and BS 7671 compliance.
