Solar panel mounting
How Solar Panels Are Securely Mounted
Solar panels are not simply placed on a roof. The mounting system is designed around the roof type, panel layout and installation requirements.
The HEG approach
We use a roof mounting system suited to UK pitched roofs and explain the practical work involved before installation begins, including access and any survey findings.

Safe roof-edge margins
The final design allows appropriate clearance around roof edges. This is one reason a satellite estimate is always confirmed through survey.

Installation planning
We plan access equipment, cable routes and the inverter or battery location so the work is clear and organised.
