Additionally, with the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG), you can earn money by exporting surplus energy back to the grid. Over time, these savings can cover the cost of your solar panel system.
Typically, the installation of a solar panel system can be completed within 1 to 3 days, depending on the size and complexity of the system. At Stag Solar, we strive to ensure minimal disruption to your routine, providing a fast, efficient, and clean installation process.
Yes, we can! Our team is knowledgeable about current government incentives, including the SEG, and we can assist you in understanding and applying for any available benefits to maximize your investment.
Stag Solar provides a standard 2-year warranty on all solar installations. This covers both workmanship and hardware. Additionally, many of the solar panels we install come with a manufacturer’s warranty of up to 25 years for performance.
In most cases, solar panel installations fall under 'permitted development' in the UK, which means they do not require planning permission. However, there are exceptions for listed buildings and certain conservation areas. Stag Solar will help you ascertain if any special permissions are needed for your property.
Solar panels require very little maintenance. However, it is important to keep them clean and free of debris to ensure optimal performance. Stag Solar offers maintenance packages as part of our unique Stag Assist, including regular inspections, to help keep your system running efficiently.
Should your solar panels require repairs, Stag Solar provides comprehensive repair services to quickly address and resolve any issues, ensuring minimal disruption to your solar power supply.
Solar panels can be installed on a variety of roofing materials, including tile, slate, and metal. Our expert team at Stag Solar will assess your roof’s suitability in a preliminary site survey and discuss any necessary adjustments.
