In-roof solar
for Bath homes.

Instead of sitting on rails above your tiles, in-roof panels replace a section of the roof covering and sit flush with the roofline, finished with flashing kits that weatherproof the edges. The result looks like part of the roof rather than an addition to it — which is exactly what planning officers and conservation-minded neighbours want to see in Bath.

Slightly — panels run a little warmer without an air gap behind them, which can cost a few percent of output. For most Bath homes the visual and planning benefits comfortably outweigh that, and on a new roof or re-roof the economics are even better because the panels replace tiles you'd otherwise pay for.

Typically a little more than a standard on-roof system of the same size, mainly due to the mounting trays and roofing work. If you're re-roofing anyway, the gap narrows significantly. We price it exactly like everything else: fixed quote after an in-person survey, 0% VAT on residential installations.

Yes — in-roof systems are well suited to slate, which is common across Bath and Somerset's older housing stock. The trays integrate with the slate coursing and the flashing handles the weatherproofing. It's a roofing-and-electrical job done together, which is how we run our installs.
