Choosing the Right System
Your ideal solar setup depends on roof angle, orientation, shading from nearby trees or buildings, and your household’s daily electricity usage. South‑facing roofs generate the most power, but east‑ and west‑facing roofs can still perform extremely well with modern panels.
If you tend to use more energy in the mornings or evenings — or if you own an EV — pairing solar with a battery usually offers the best value. We provide a free roof survey and tailored recommendations to ensure your system is perfectly matched to your Guildford 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.
Do solar panels work well in Guildford’s mixed weather?
Yes — solar panels generate electricity from daylight, not just direct sun. Even on cloudy days, they produce useful energy throughout the year.
Does my roof need to face south to make solar worthwhile?
South‑facing roofs provide maximum yield, but east‑ and west‑facing roofs also perform well. We’ll assess orientation and shading during your free survey.
Will I need planning permission for solar panels in Guildford?
Most installations fall under permitted development. Exceptions apply for listed buildings or some conservation areas — we’ll guide you if permissions are required.
Can solar power my home at night?
With battery storage, you can store surplus energy generated during the day and use it after sunset. Without a battery, you’ll automatically draw from the grid at night.
How much maintenance do solar panels need?
Very little. Panels may need occasional cleaning and a periodic visual check. Quality inverters and components ensure long‑term reliability.
Will installing solar add value to my Guildford property?
Homes with lower running costs and modern energy systems often appeal more to buyers. A well‑installed solar system can be a desirable feature.
