Establish who can approve the work

If you own a house and its roof, a survey can assess an individual array. In a flat or shared building, speak with the freeholder, landlord or managing agent first. Permission to live in a property is not automatically permission to alter the roof.

Ask who would own the panels, which electricity meter they would connect to and who would receive export payments. A communal array serving shared lighting is a different project from one intended to reduce a particular flat’s bill.

Agree maintenance and access responsibilities

A shared project needs a plan for roof repairs, inspection, insurance and equipment replacement. Agree who can instruct work and how access will be arranged. Record responsibility for removing and reinstating panels if the covering needs attention.

For an individual house, check scaffolding, clearances and the route from roof to inverter. Your postcode is useful for an enquiry, but the installer needs the building details to work out a practical layout.

Use the right support route

Broxbourne’s Warm Homes information covers qualifying private homes and directs social-housing residents to their landlord. These are separate routes. Check eligibility before committing to a private installation and do not assume that an enquiry through this website applies for council funding.
