Re-roof to a Solar Panelled Roof

CASE STUDY: Re-roof to solar panelled roof

Location: Slaithwaite, Huddersfield

This property in Slaithwaite, Huddersfield required a re-roof to a solar panelled roof. The rear elevation was in need of re-roofing, however there were 16 solar pv panels already installed on this side of the roof. The existing solar pv panels were to be removed and stored for reinstallation at a later date, which wasn’t a problem for our highly experienced team.

Listened to our concerns and worked hard to accommodate them, was able to source other trades for required preliminary (non-roofing) works (which I had been unable to do). The personnel on site gave excellent customer care - informing us of progress & issues, were very thoughtful, respected the building type and style, took a lot of care and worked very hard and very well together. We were lucky with the weather & everything happened according to the original timetabled plan.

Work done included re-roofing with existing solar panels. Extremely happy with this company and would highly recommend. Very responsive to all my questions before the works and they are very knowledgeable about their profession. I was very pleased to find them as it is very difficult to find roofers with solar experience. All work completed to high standard and the guys on the job were very courteous/polite/tidy/punctual. Excellent communication through out and overall a very positive experience. Thank you to all the team for their hard work and professionalism.

Green and Heritage did the prep work necessary for installing solar panels on our roof. Great to deal with. Very good communication and very professional. Liaison with the electrical company fitting the panels was spot on and even cleaned the windows on completion. Recommended.

Re-roofing to solar panelled roof

Before work began

After stripping and disposing of the existing tiles, new felt and battens were installed. New concrete tiles replaced the old ones and new verge units were installed. The ridge tiles were all re-bedded in Flexim Roof Putty, giving a neat finish which is fully compliant with current building regulations.

Once all the roofing work had been completed, the solar PV panels were reinstated, recommissioned and left in full working order for the customer.

Our customer commented:

“Chris and the team were a pleasure to deal with throughout. They did a re-roof for us which involved removing solar panels and the reinstating them one the new tiles were on – not a single hitch, we were both delighted and impressed. They also did a flat roof section for us. Once they started they arranged everything including the scaffoldin, the skip and even window cleaning at the end of the job! I would recommend them without hesitation.”
