Roof-integrated Solar PV enquiries
Solar panels forming part of a new or renewed roof, with coordinated roofing and electrical assessment.
Roof-integrated PV forms part of the roof covering. Plan the roofing and electrical work together, especially when a new roof or re-roofing is already proposed.
Start your solar enquiryYour brief
Useful details to have ready
- Say whether the project is a new build, full renewal or replacement of part of an existing roof.
- Describe existing tiles or slate, roof pitch, rooflights and any drawings or chosen system.
- Ask how panel edges, flashings, ventilation and the remaining covering will stay weather-tight.
- The job postcode and when you would like the work done
You can start without every answer. Only take photos where it is safe to do so; do not climb onto a roof for an enquiry.
One brief, a clear next step
- Tell us about the job. Your draft is saved in this browser as you go.
- Review before sending. Edit the details and confirm the enquiry. Your completion link keeps later answers with the same case.
- Find a suitable supplier. Beffer checks service fit and coverage. Availability, a quote and any site visit must be confirmed by the supplier.
What a survey should resolve
- Who is responsible for the roof covering, mounting system, electrical installation and interface defects?
- Does the chosen in-roof system suit the pitch, roof construction and fire/weatherproofing requirements?
- How will roof structure, access, permissions and commissioning be checked?
Cost factors and exclusions
- Roof stripping, replacement covering, custom flashings, structural work, scaffolding and electrical equipment affect scope.
- Ask where roofing and PV warranties meet, and whether making good, spare coverings and future panel access are included.
Before you enquire
Is integrated PV the same as panels fixed above tiles?
No. An integrated system replaces part of the roof covering, so the roof interface and weatherproofing are central to the design.
Should the roof be assessed first?
Yes. The existing structure and remaining covering need assessment before a system and scope can be confirmed.
Does an enquiry commit me to the work?
No. Submitting an enquiry starts the discussion. Check the supplier's scope, price, exclusions and terms before accepting a quote.
