Areas We Cover

Why we only cover one city

Because the useful part of a quote is local. Birmingham housing is mostly interwar and post-war semis, Victorian terraces in the inner ring, and a big stock of 1960s-80s estates, with concrete interlocking tile on the post-war stock, clay plain tile and slate on the older terraces. The post-war semis around Birmingham typically give a clean, generously sized rear slope, which is often the better array position even where the front faces closer to south. An installer who works here every week already knows that; one covering half the country does not.

What happens if I am just outside

Send the enquiry anyway. Installer coverage does not stop neatly at a boundary, and if nobody we work with covers you we will say so rather than pass your details to someone who will not turn up.

Grid connection in this area

Domestic systems here are notified to National Grid Electricity Distribution (West Midlands). Most are handled after installation under G98; larger systems, or areas where the local network is already constrained, need a G99 application and approval first. Your installer deals with this either way — it is worth asking which route applies before you commit to dates.
