Solar panel installation: what we take care of
Solar panels turn daylight into electricity you can use at home. The right setup depends on your roof: which way it faces, how steep it is, and whether anything shades it. We look at all of that with you before we recommend anything.
We are builders and roofers as well. So we check that the roof itself is sound first, and we can repair or replace it as part of the same job. We install solar panels in Manchester, Radcliffe, Bury, Bolton, Oldham and nearby.

What our solar panel installation customers say
Real reviews, word for word, from Google and from our Facebook group.
Fabulous company, excellent all round service with a no nonsense approach and great value for money. I would highly recommend them to anyone having work done no matter how big or small the job is.
I highly recommend IVO & TINA COMPLETE RENOVATION AND CONSTRUCTION— they did a fantastic job at the work at my house. The team was fast, efficient, and really professional throughout the entire process. Communication was clear and friendly, and they were always happy to answer any questions I had. The quality of the work was great. If you're looking for reliable and skilled builders, this is the team to go with!
I used this company to help me renovate a house that I'm planning on selling on. Ivanov understood what i was trying to do and made suggestions that would give me a good impact but not too expensive. There were a few hiccups along the way but we sorted everything out in the end. I would use this company for my next project.
Thank you for the great work. The colleagues are professional, efficient and careful. The company is very easy to communicate and put the clients’ interest in its top priority while giving professional advice. Highly recommended.

Solar panel installation in Manchester from a team that knows roofs
Why the roof matters
Solar panels sit on your roof for many years, so the roof under them needs to be in good shape. As builders and roofers, we check and repair the roof first. That way you do not have to lift the panels later to fix a leak.
Is your roof suitable?
South, east and west-facing roofs can all work. Shading from trees or chimneys and the space available decide how many panels make sense. We look before we recommend anything.
Solar as part of other work
If you are re-roofing, building an extension or converting the loft, it is the ideal time to add solar panels while the scaffold is up.
Solar panel cost in Manchester
The cost depends on the number of panels, the equipment you choose and the condition of the roof. We give you a free written quote after the roof check.

Solar panel installation in Manchester: your questions answered
Will solar panels work on my roof?
It depends on the direction, the pitch, the shade and the condition of the roof. We look at all four at the visit and tell you honestly.
Does my roof need to be in good condition?
Yes. Panels stay up for many years, so the roof beneath them should be sound. We check, and we can repair it first.
Do panels work on cloudy days?
Yes. They make electricity from daylight, not only from direct sun, though they produce more on bright days.
Can you fit panels as part of a new roof?
Yes. We do roofing too, so the roof and the panels can be planned and fitted together.
Do you install solar panels outside Manchester?
Yes. We install panels across Greater Manchester and in Warrington and Liverpool.
Does it matter which way my roof faces?
Yes. Direction, pitch and shade all affect how much electricity the panels make. We check all three with you.
