We start by assessing your roof and your energy use, and we discuss your priorities for solar too. These could be reducing your reliance on the grid and becoming more self-sufficient, making the most of your roof space, or saving as much as you can on bills. This information allows us to recommend a bespoke system that will work for you, your home and your budget.
The right solar system allows you to:
If you’re considering solar panel installation in Huddersfield, remember that with us the process is simple, the fitting is tidy and the workmanship is 5-star rated.
The best results from solar installation come when a system is designed around your property rather than an off-the-shelf solution. Each system we design is built around one specific property to make sure it’s the perfect fit, and that it makes a real difference to long-term performance and value.
The Huddersfield area is home to a large number of older stone-built homes, from Regency and Victorian terraces to former mill workers’ cottages and Pennine farmhouses. These properties have differing roof characteristics such as steep pitches, varied orientations and older materials that affect solar design. Then there are larger, more modern detached houses in areas such as Holmfirth with more usable space and generation potential. Thankfully we have plenty of experience in the area and with roofs of all types so we can design the ideal system for your property.

Huddersfield’s varied housing and its setting mean solar works best when planned specifically for your property. As part of this we assess the factors that affect how much electricity your system could generate. These include roof orientation, pitch, shading from chimneys and neighbouring buildings, usable space and roof covering.
On older stone homes this sometimes means designing around tricky layouts or choosing components that suit the style of the building. And on larger homes the focus is planning a system that matches your energy needs, rather than just filling the roof space you have. Whatever the result, it will always beat a generic solar system.
The actual cost of your installation will depend on your roof layout, site access and the specification you choose. But to give you an idea, prices start from:
The final figure will vary according to the system specification, scaffold requirements, roof arrangement and any additional installation work needed.

Property type: Detached house
Location: Leeds
System size: 7.92kW / 18 panels
Battery storage: No
Estimated annual savings: £1,697
The homeowner needed solar installation as part of a restoration and extension project as it was stipulated by the local planning authority. We designed this system to match a specified capacity, while making sure it suited the property aesthetically.
Outcome: We expect this system to meet 32% of the home’s annual energy usage, saving £1,697 a year. The homeowner can also sell on an additional £736 worth of energy back to the grid. This setup should pay for itself within 5 years and continue to generate free electricity for another 25+ years.

Electrical Experience
“Ed looked at my roof and told me the trees would block too much sunlight. He said I’d only get 40% of what other companies quoted. He could’ve taken my money – but he didn’t. When we removed the trees a year later, I called him straight back.”
“Finally, a solar company that doesn’t feel like a sales pitch. Oscar walked us through every number, showed us exactly what we’d save, and never pressured us once. Eight months in and the savings are spot-on with what he predicted.”
We only supply high quality products from some of the most trusted manufacturers in the industry.

Yes, absolutely. The Huddersfield area is full of stone-built homes and with a thorough site assessment we can design a system that works around your specific roof.
Installation usually takes one to two days, though it can sometimes run slightly longer depending on system size and complexity. We’ll discuss this with you when we assess your property.
