Planning Permission & Building Regulations
Most solar installations fall under 'permitted development' rights, but certain properties and installations require specific permissions.
How It Works
Permitted Development
Most residential solar installations are permitted development and don't require planning permission. This covers installations on houses, not flats, with panels not significantly higher than the roof line.
Listed Buildings
Listed buildings and properties in conservation areas require listed building consent. We have experience navigating these requirements and can guide you through the process.
Building Regulations
Solar installations must comply with building regulations, particularly regarding structural loading and electrical safety. Our MCS certification ensures full compliance with all regulations.
Maintenance & Performance
Solar panels are remarkably low-maintenance, but understanding their long-term performance helps maximise your investment.
