Straightforward answers about solar panel installation, roof protection, design and likely savings.
No, not when they are installed correctly. The mounting system is designed to fix securely to the roof structure while keeping the roof weatherproof. E-Fix checks the roof condition first, uses suitable fixings and flashing, and works with highly experienced, trained roofers who have been installing solar panels since 2010, so your roof remains protected.
Birds can sometimes try to nest under solar panels because the panels provide shelter. To help prevent this, E-Fix installs bird guard mesh as standard on all solar panel installations, keeping the area protected while maintaining airflow around the panels.
A well-designed solar and battery system can typically reduce electricity bills by around 50–80%, depending on roof size, battery size, energy use and tariff. With careful monitoring, some people can save up to 90%. The best savings often come from combining solar panels with battery storage and an electric vehicle. This can reduce your household electricity bills dramatically and also cut transport costs. Some E-Fix customers are saving hundreds of pounds each month by no longer paying for diesel or petrol. Talk to Nick and he will explain how you can maximise your savings.
Yes. E-Fix can use solar design and 3D modelling to assess roof space, panel positions, sun paths, shading and likely generation before recommending a system.
