START WITH THE PROPERTY

Fit the design to a maintainable roof

For a Portsmouth property, photograph roof edges, vents and possible scaffold positions before accepting a proposed panel count. The plan should leave enough detail to understand mounting and later access.

BEFORE YOU ACCEPT A QUOTE

Read the fixings specification

Compare the roof attachment, weatherproofing and electrical route as carefully as the panel model. If a survey changes usable area, ask the installer to update both expected generation and the total price.

ILLUSTRATIVE QUOTE COMPARISON

Will a tight roof layout survive inspection?

ONE APPROACH

One design fills the roof to its edges in a desktop plan.

ANOTHER APPROACH

Another shows fixings, vents, scaffold access and measured setbacks.

THE DECISION

Use the surveyed drawing to compare actual panel count, generation and price. The desktop estimate should be revised as soon as the roof is measured.

NEXT STEP IN PORTSMOUTH

Give the inverter a destination.

Ask where the electrical equipment and cable will go, and what meter or board work is included. A sound roof fixing plan is only part of the installed system.
