Working in Merseyside
From Liverpool's terraces and dockland commercial estates to the coastal towns north of the city, we install and maintain renewable energy systems throughout Merseyside.
A short trip from our Westhead base
Our workshop and office sit at Westhead near Ormskirk, a few minutes from the A570 and within easy reach of the A59 and A5036 into Liverpool and Sefton. That puts most of Merseyside — Liverpool, Bootle, Crosby, Huyton, St Helens, Southport's near neighbours and the Wirral via the Mersey crossings — well within our normal working radius, so site visits, scaffolding deliveries and follow-up work are straightforward rather than a special trip.
A varied county, surveyed on its own terms
Merseyside covers Victorian bay-fronted terraces in Wavertree and Anfield, interwar semis across Crosby and Formby, dense dockland-adjacent commercial premises near the Liverpool waterfront, distribution sheds along the M57 and M62 corridors, and coastal properties from Crosby to Hightown that face salt-laden wind off the Irish Sea. We size scaffolding, fixings and cable routes to the actual roof and site in front of us rather than issuing a standard package.
Grid and network context
Electricity North West operates the distribution network across most of Merseyside, so battery and larger solar applications are submitted to them for connection approval. For commercial sites near the Cheshire boundary we also deal with SP Energy Networks where relevant. We handle DNO notification and any application paperwork as part of the installation, so it is not left for you to manage.

Services
What we install in Merseyside
Solar PV
Solar PV Installation
From bay-fronted Liverpool terraces to detached roofs in Formby and Blundellsands, we design each array to the roof pitch, orientation and shading in front of us rather than a generic layout.

Battery
Battery Storage Installation
With much of Merseyside on Economy 7 or similar time-of-use tariffs, a correctly sized battery lets households and businesses shift consumption to cheaper overnight rates as well as storing daytime solar generation.

Battery
Battery Retrofit for Existing Solar
Merseyside has a substantial base of solar installed over the last decade, much of it without storage — we retrofit a battery to your existing array without disturbing the panels or your export arrangement.

EV Charging
EV Charge Point Installation
As an OZEV approved installer we fit home and workplace charge points across Liverpool and the wider county, including terraced streets where cable routing and off-street parking need a proper site assessment first.

Commercial
Commercial Rooftop Solar
The warehousing and logistics roof space along the M57, M62 and Liverpool docklands corridor is well suited to commercial solar, with daytime demand typically matching generation closely.
Read more
Commercial
Commercial Ground-Mount Solar
Where a Merseyside business has spare yard or set-aside land rather than usable roof, a ground-mount array can be designed for optimal tilt and orientation independent of any existing building.

Commercial
Solar Car Ports
Retail parks and business premises with large surface car parks around Liverpool and St Helens can generate from that space while providing covered, EV-ready parking for staff or customers.

Solar PV
Solar PV Servicing & Maintenance
Coastal exposure along the Sefton and Wirral coastline can accelerate wear on fixings and cabling, so a periodic service catches issues before they cost you a season of generation, whoever installed the system originally.

Solar PV
Feasibility Surveys & Energy Assessments
Before any commitment, a free feasibility survey establishes what a Liverpool rooftop, a St Helens warehouse or a Wirral farm building can actually generate, based on your real consumption data.

Solar PV
Solar Hot Water & Immersion Diverters
For Merseyside homes with an existing solar array and a hot water cylinder, a diverter puts surplus generation to work heating water instead of exporting it for a fraction of its value.

EV Charging
EV Charger Servicing & Maintenance
We service and repair home and workplace charge points across the county, including units we did not originally install, keeping fleet and staff charging available.

Commercial
Commercial Solar PPA & Funding
For Merseyside businesses, commercial finance, a Power Purchase Agreement or a straight CAPEX purchase are all available, so funding is matched to the business rather than the roof.

Why choose us in Merseyside
One in-house team, start to finish
Survey, design, installation, electrical certification and DNO notification are all handled by our own people rather than passed between subcontractors, which matters on the tighter terraced streets and dockland sites common across Merseyside.
Accreditation that covers the full job
MCS certified for both solar PV and battery storage, NAPIT registered and Part P certified for the electrical work, RECC registered for the consumer code, CHAS accredited for health and safety, and OZEV approved for EV chargepoint grant work.
Backed by an insurance-backed guarantee
Workmanship is covered by a 2 year guarantee, insurance-backed through QANW, on top of manufacturer warranties on panels, inverters and batteries.
Local conditions
What makes Merseyside properties different
Terraced and pre-war housing stock
Large parts of Liverpool, Bootle and Birkenhead consist of Victorian and Edwardian terraces with slate roofs, limited loft access and shared or narrow frontages. These properties need careful scaffolding access planning and, in some cases, cable routes agreed in advance where street parking or party walls are involved.
Coastal and estuary exposure
Crosby, Formby, Hightown and the Wirral coastline face salt-laden onshore wind that accelerates corrosion on poorly specified fixings and cabling. We specify mounting hardware and cable glands with that exposure in mind rather than treating every roof the same.
Conservation areas and listed terraces
Parts of Liverpool, Sefton and Wirral fall within conservation areas or contain listed buildings, particularly around the waterfront and older village centres. Where permitted development rights are restricted we flag this at survey stage so planning is factored into the timeline rather than discovered later.
Dense industrial and dockland estates
Commercial premises around the Liverpool docks, Bootle and the wider Merseyside industrial corridors often carry flat or low-pitch roofs with existing plant, HVAC and access constraints that need surveying properly before a system is designed around them.

- 3
DNO and grant paperwork
Where a DNO application to Electricity North West or SP Energy Networks is needed, or an OZEV grant applies, we handle the submission.
- 4
Installation and commissioning
Our own installers carry out the electrical and structural work, then commission and test the system before handover.
- 5
Certification and ongoing support
You receive your MCS certificate and electrical certification, plus access to our in-house servicing department for the life of the system.
Common questions
Merseyside questions, answered
Do you cover the whole of Merseyside?
Yes. We regularly work across Liverpool, Sefton, Knowsley, St Helens and the Wirral, alongside our home patch of Lancashire, Cheshire and Greater Manchester.
How far is Merseyside from your base?
We are based at Westhead near Ormskirk, close to the A570 and A59, which keeps Liverpool and the wider county within comfortable working distance for surveys, installation and any follow-up visits.
How much will solar or a battery cost for my property?
It depends on your roof or site, your consumption and the system specified, so we do not quote a fixed price upfront. Surveys are free and we typically return a written quote within 1–2 working days.
Do you work with commercial premises as well as homes?
Yes. Alongside domestic installations across Merseyside's housing stock, we install rooftop and ground-mount solar, car ports and battery storage for warehouses, distribution units and offices, with commercial finance, PPA and CAPEX funding routes available.
Will I need planning permission?
Most domestic solar and battery installations fall under permitted development, but conservation areas and listed buildings, which exist in parts of Liverpool, Sefton and Wirral, can restrict this. We check your specific property at survey stage.
Do you handle the grid application?
Yes. Where a DNO application is required for a larger solar or battery system, we submit it to Electricity North West or SP Energy Networks as appropriate as part of the installation.
Can you service or repair a system another company installed?
Yes. Our in-house servicing and maintenance department works on existing solar and EV charging systems across Merseyside regardless of who installed them originally.
What happens if something goes wrong after installation?
Workmanship is covered by a 2 year guarantee, insurance-backed through QANW, and our servicing department is available for fault diagnosis and repair beyond that.
