Pictures we're rather proud of
The work, without the captions we can't back up
Every photograph here is our own. None of them carries a customer name, a town or a date — because we cannot verify those, and a gallery that implies them is just a fabricated portfolio with better lighting.
Look at the edges, not the middle
Anybody can photograph a roof full of panels. What tells you who fitted it is the setting-out, the perimeter, and where the switchgear ended up — so each of these says what is actually worth noticing in it.
Where these come from: our own website, social feeds and job photographs. They are installations of ours, photographed on the job — but we have not gone back and confirmed the detail of each one, so none of them is captioned as a specific completed job. No customer, address or town is identified in any caption on this page.
Four things worth noticing
None of these costs a customer anything extra. All four are the difference between a system that works and a system that also looks like somebody cared on the day.
The panels are black, all the way through
Black frame, black backsheet. From the pavement it reads as a darker panel of roof rather than a grid of silver lines.
Why we default to itThe rows line up with the tiles
Arrays set out to the tile course, full rows, no orphan panels. It costs nothing but care on the day and it is most of why a finished job looks right.
How we design an arrayThe flat roofs have no fixings through them
Ballasted trays sit on the covering. Nothing is drilled through a flat roof, which is exactly what you want on a flat roof.
Flat-roof systemsThere's mesh along the edges
Fitted while the scaffold is already up, clipped to the panel frame rather than screwed into the tiles. Pigeons find the gap under an array remarkably quickly.
Why we fit it as part of the jobNothing on this page has a name on it, and that is on purpose
Most installer galleries read “4kW system, Mrs H, Findon, March”. Ours cannot, because we have not gone back and confirmed a single one of those details with the people who live in these houses — and a caption you have not checked is just a caption you made up.
So the captions say what the photograph shows and stop there. When a customer is happy to be named, and the job details have been checked with them, this page will say so and it will be obvious which ones those are. Until then you are looking at the work, honestly labelled, and you can judge it on that.
The same rule runs the whole site. The kit pages carry no capacity or warranty figures we cannot source. Every figure on this site is either one we publish ourselves, quoted whole, or a modelled number with its assumptions printed beside it.
- No customer names Not one of these has been cleared with the householder, so not one of them names a householder.
- No towns or addresses We cover a wide patch and we will tell you where — but not by pointing at somebody's roof.
- No dates or system sizes We have no verified record of when these were fitted or what went on them, so we do not print either.
- No stock photography Every frame above is ours. Where we have no photograph of something, that page uses a drawing and says so.
