Your Trusted Partner for Residential Solar Installation

At Welton Renewables, we fit solar panels on homes across Bedfordshire and north Hertfordshire. Household energy bills keep climbing. A residential solar installation lets your roof make clean electricity every day.

We design home solar panel systems for terraces, semis, bungalows and detached houses. Every system is sized around how your family uses power. Pair it with home battery storage to use more of your own energy after dark.

Our own MCS and NICEIC-accredited engineers handle the whole job. That covers the survey, design, DNO notification, fitting and certification. Most homes are finished in one or two days, with no subcontractors involved.

How Our Residential Solar Installation Process Works?

Going solar at home should feel simple and stress-free. Here’s how a typical residential project runs with our team:

  • Free Home Survey

We start with a chat about your bills and goals. Then an engineer visits to check your roof, loft and consumer unit. We look at shading, orientation and the best spot for your inverter.

  • Tailored Design and Fixed Quote

Next, we design a system that fits your roof and your usage. You get a fixed quote with expected generation and savings. No pushy sales tactics and no hidden extras.

  • Scaffolding and Installation

We arrange scaffolding and notify your local network operator. Our installers then fit the panels, inverter and any battery. Most homes are finished in one to two days.

  • Testing, Handover and Certificates

Every system is fully tested before we leave. We walk you through the monitoring app and how everything works. You’ll receive your MCS certificate, warranties and electrical safety paperwork.

  • Aftercare and Monitoring

Our support continues long after installation day. We offer health checks, panel cleaning and fault-finding whenever you need us. If output dips, we’ll help get it back on track.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a residential solar installation?

It’s the fitting of solar PV panels on a home to generate electricity. Panels on your roof turn daylight into power for your appliances. Anything you don’t use can charge a battery or go to the grid.

How much does home solar cost in the UK?

As a guide, most 3–5 kWp home systems cost around £5,000 to £9,000 fitted. The price depends on roof size, panel choice and whether you add a battery. We give a fixed, itemised quote after your free survey.

Do I need planning permission for solar panels on my house?

Most homes don’t, as rooftop solar usually counts as permitted development. Different rules apply to listed buildings and some conservation areas. We’ll check this for you during the survey.

How many solar panels does my home need?

A typical three-bed home suits around 8 to 12 panels. That’s usually a 3.5 to 5 kWp system. The right size depends on your usage, roof space and plans for an EV or heat pump.

Is VAT charged on residential solar panels?

Solar panels and batteries fitted to homes currently carry 0% VAT. This relief runs until 31 March 2027 in Great Britain. It makes now a great time to install.

Can I add a battery or EV charger later?

Yes. We design every system so a battery can be added at any time. Solar also pairs well with an EV charger installation, so you can charge your car with sunshine.

Do you offer aftercare for home solar systems?

Yes. Every installation includes workmanship and manufacturer warranties. We also offer health checks, cleaning and repairs. One call gets you a local engineer who knows your system.
