Joss W, Kent

I have been entirely happy with the efforts of all their staff, from the initial survey site visit through the telephone specification discussion and the liaison between the PV slab fitters and our roofers and finally fitting the Tesla battery and liaising with our electricians. I thoroughly recommend them to anyone.

Benefits of Installing Solar Panels

Installing solar in Farnham gives you a multitude of benefits. Here are six of the most meaningful for local homeowners.

  • Lower Electricity Bills

    With typical average sunshine hours for Farnham around 6.8 hours in May and 7.2 hours in June, your roof has real potential to produce substantial electricity when the sun is out.
    By turning daylight into power, you reduce your reliance on bought-in electricity and can keep your energy bills under stronger control.

  • Enhanced Property Appeal

    Farnham remains a highly desirable Surrey market town with strong commuter links. A high-quality solar installation from a trusted installer such as TLGEC can add modern appeal to your home and make it more attractive to future buyers.

  • Supporting Local Green Goals

    Both Guildford Borough Council (which covers Farnham) and Surrey County Council have declared climate-emergencies and are driving renewable energy upgrades in homes. By installing solar, you’re helping align your home with the borough’s and county’s sustainability commitments.

  • Effective Use of Roof Space

    Many homes in Farnham have south or south-west facing roofs, generous gardens (often in the Surrey Hills fringe) and less overshadowing than denser urban areas. That gives us an excellent starting point for arranging your solar array to maximise generation.

  • Future-Proofing for EVs & Battery Storage

    With electric vehicle adoption increasing locally and rural homes often benefitting from off-street parking, integrating solar with a battery storage system or EV charger gives you flexibility. Generate by day, store for evening or charge your car with your own roof-power.

  • Long-Term Confidence & Premium Equipment

    With TLGEC you’re getting a partner with over a decade of experience, more than 300 five-star reviews and certifications that include MCS, NICEIC and Tesla Premium Installer status. We use only top-tier equipment (SunPower, SolarEdge, Tesla) and provide robust warranties. You’re set for years of reliable performance.

Choosing Us

Selecting the right installer is critical. At TLGEC we tailor our service for Farnham homes every time.

We begin with a free, no-obligation survey of your property—checking roof orientation, available sunlight, shading (trees are common in Farnham gardens), roof health and your household electricity use. We then provide a clear design, specification and price.

Once approved, our NICEIC- and MCS-certified team coordinates installation, building-control or local authority notification if needed, and completes the grid-connection process. After commissioning, we hand over a system you can monitor and maintain, backed by our local support. Get your free quote in Farnham today.

Why Farnham Is Great for Solar Panels

Farnham benefits from solid solar generation potential: according to climate data, average sunshine hours in Farnham reach around 6–7 hours in late spring/early summer. Roofs in the town often face south, south-west and enjoy fewer high-rise obstructions than inner-London suburbs.

Meanwhile, local policy under the Guildford Borough Council strongly supports low-carbon energy upgrades, with climate-emergency aims and sustainability planning guidance in place. All of this makes now a smart moment to invest in solar for your Farnham home.

Solar Panel (PV) FAQs

To ensure you have all the information you require at your fingertips, we have compiled a list of frequently asked questions. If you still have a question then feel free to reach out and get in touch. Our team is extremely knowledgeable and here to help.

Can I install solar panels if I live in a conservation area or a listed building in Farnham?

Yes — many homes in Farnham sit in conservation areas or are listed. Our survey will check your status and we’ll guide you through any additional permissions, such as planning or heritage approvals.

How many hours of sunshine can I expect on my Farnham roof?

While it varies by season, climate-data show Farnham averages around 6.8 hours of sunshine per day in May and about 7.2 hours in June. That means good potential for solar-generation during key months.

Will I need planning permission for domestic rooftop solar in Farnham?

Most domestic rooftop solar systems can be installed under permitted development rights. However historic or specially-designated properties may require further permissions. We’ll check for you.

Does shading from trees affect performance in Farnham?

Yes — Farnham’s leafy setting and mature trees mean shading can reduce output. During our survey we assess likely shading, panel placement and may suggest trimming if needed to optimise results.

What happens if I want battery storage or an EV charger later?

We design your system now with the future in mind. You can add a battery or EV charger later with minimal disruption, and your solar array will be ready for it from day one.

Why choose TLGEC rather than a large national chain?

As a specialist local provider with extensive experience in Surrey towns, including Farnham, we offer tailored service, local knowledge, and long-term support—rather than just a one-off installation. Our reputation, certifications and local presence mean you’re backed by expert installers, not just a call-centre.

How quickly can I get a quote and installation in Farnham?

Once you contact us, we aim to schedule a free survey within days. After design and approval, the typical installation timeline is 4–8 weeks (subject to roof access and grid-connection). You could be generating your own clean power in time for the next high-sun season.
