Solar PV Installation

Solar PV installation support depends on property type, roof condition, orientation, shading, access, electrical setup, equipment compatibility, supplier availability, permissions, survey findings, budget guidance, and agreed project scope.

Dodge Solar handles domestic solar PV installation enquiries for homeowners and landlords across the UK. Light-commercial solar installation enquiries are considered on a case-by-case basis subject to site assessment and agreed project scope.

Domestic Solar PV Installation

Domestic solar PV installation support covers the planning, supply, installation, commissioning, and handover of residential solar PV systems. Each domestic installation is shaped around the specific property, roof type, electrical setup, energy use, and product selection.

Light-Commercial Solar Installation

Light-commercial solar installation enquiries — including small business premises, farm buildings, and larger residential properties — are considered subject to site suitability, planning requirements, grid connection rules, electrical capacity, and agreed project terms.

Installation Components

Mounting & Racking

In-roof, on-roof, and ground-mount systems reviewed against roof type, tile condition, weight loading, and manufacturer requirements.

Inverter Installation

String, micro, and hybrid inverter installation reviewed against panel selection, battery plans, and electrical setup.

DC & AC Wiring

DC cabling from panels to inverter and AC wiring from inverter to consumer unit planned against building layout and safety requirements.

Monitoring System

System monitoring configured to track generation, consumption, export, and battery state where applicable.

Battery Integration

Battery storage integration reviewed against inverter compatibility, panel output, energy use, and agreed scope.

Commissioning

System testing, output verification, safety checks, and commissioning documentation completed at handover.

Permissions & Regulations

Solar PV installation may require planning permission depending on property type, conservation area designation, listed building status, roof configuration, and local authority rules. Customers are responsible for identifying and obtaining any required permissions before installation commences.

Building control notification, electrical safety certification, grid connection notification, and DNO approval requirements should be reviewed with qualified specialists. Dodge Solar can advise on general requirements as part of the survey and design process.

Scaffolding & Access

Safe roof access is required for solar panel installation. Scaffolding requirements are assessed during survey based on roof height, pitch, configuration, and access constraints. Scaffolding provision, cost, and timescales are subject to third-party scaffolding supplier terms.

Installation support depends on property type, roof condition, orientation, shading, access, electrical setup, equipment compatibility, supplier availability, permissions, survey findings, budget guidance, and agreed project scope. Recommendations depend on property suitability, product availability, and confirmed project terms.

Third-party equipment manufacturers, solar panel suppliers, battery manufacturers, inverter manufacturers, scaffolding providers, energy suppliers, distribution network operators, certification bodies, finance providers, insurers, local authorities, and warranty providers may have separate rules, costs, availability, limitations, timescales, warranties, and terms.
