Domestic Solar Panel Installation, Greater Manchester

Greater Manchester

Manchester Renewables installed a domestic solar PV system on a home in Greater Manchester. The system was designed around the property's roof layout and the homeowner's energy usage, with panels positioned to maximise generation throughout the year.

For most homeowners, a correctly sized solar system can cut electricity bills by 50-70%. With 0% VAT on domestic installations and the Smart Export Guarantee paying for surplus energy sent back to the grid, solar is one of the best home improvements you can make right now.

Our team handled everything from the initial survey through to MCS certification and handover — including scaffolding, electrical work, and DNO notification. The whole process was completed with minimal disruption, and the system was generating electricity the same day.

Common Questions

How much does a domestic solar installation cost?
With our standard Fox ESS hybrid inverter and 11.5kWh battery, a typical 4kW system costs £7,500–£8,000 and larger 5–6kW systems £8,000–£9,000, all including 0% VAT. Without a battery, take £3,000 off. All prices include scaffolding, installation and MCS certification, and our solar savings calculator gives a guide price for your own roof.
How long does a home solar installation take?
Most domestic installations are completed in a single day. Scaffolding is typically erected the day before, and we remove it within a day or two of completion.
Will solar panels damage my roof?
No. We use industry-standard mounting brackets that fix securely to your roof rafters without causing damage. All penetrations are weatherproofed, and we carry full public liability insurance for your peace of mind.
How much can I save with solar panels?
A typical 4kW system in Manchester generates 3,400-3,800 kWh per year. At current electricity rates, that saves £800-£1,000 annually, with additional income from the Smart Export Guarantee for surplus energy.
