Discover how MJ Renewables installs solar panels with a stress-free, turnkey process. From consultation to sign-off, we handle everything from start to finish.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Our Stress-Free Process

We understand that installing solar panels is a big decision but that does not mean it has to be a stressful one. When contracting a solar panel installer you should expect a fully managed, turnkey solar installation experience, ensuring that from the first consultation to final sign-off, everything runs smoothly with minimal disruption to your home or business.

Here is what you can expect during your solar panel installation.

Step 1: Free Consultation & Energy Assessment

Before anything happens, it all starts with a free, no-obligation consultation. Your solar experts will:

✔ Discuss your energy goals and reasons for going solar
✔ Assess your property type, roof space, and energy usage
✔ Explain potential energy savings, financial benefits, and available incentives

At this stage, we also answer any questions you may have, from expected energy production to warranty details and financing options.

Step 2: Custom Solar Panel System Design

Once we have assessed your property, we move on to designing a bespoke solar system tailored to your home’s specific needs. This includes:

✔ Calculating your energy consumption to determine the ideal system size
✔ Designing the best panel layout for maximum sunlight exposure
✔ Selecting the most efficient solar panels and inverter for your needs
✔ Reviewing potential battery storage options for extra energy savings

At MJ Renewables, we use cutting-edge solar design technology to ensure the system is optimised for performance, efficiency and aesthetics.

Step 3: Pre-Installation Checks & Paperwork (We Handle It All)

One of the biggest worries people have about solar panel installation is the administration—but with MJ Renewables, we take care of all the paperwork for you.

✔ Planning & Permissions – Most residential solar panel installations do not require planning permission, but if they do, we handle the applications.
✔ Grid Connection & Approvals – We liaise with your electricity provider to ensure everything is properly registered and compliant.
✔ Health & Safety Compliance – Our installations meet all industry regulations and safety standards.

We keep you updated throughout this process, but you do not have to lift a finger, we handle it all.

Step 4: Hassle-Free Solar Panel Installation

Installation day is when everything comes together. Unlike what you might imagine, the process is fast, efficient and minimally invasive.

✔ Scaffolding is erected to ensure safe and secure roof access
✔ Our expert solar panel installers mount the panels onto your roof with high-grade fixtures
✔ Cabling and wiring are carefully installed to connect the system
✔ The inverter and battery system (if selected) are set up
✔ A final electrical safety check ensures everything is correctly installed

For most residential homes, installation is completed in just one day, meaning you will be generating your own electricity almost immediately.

✔ We use professional mounting techniques that preserve your roof’s integrity.
✔ Minimal disruption – You can go about your day while we work efficiently.
✔ No mess left behind – Our team cleans up thoroughly after installation.

Step 5: System Testing & Final Sign-Off

Once your solar panel system is installed, we perform rigorous testing and quality checks to ensure everything is operating at peak efficiency.

✔ Performance Testing – We check that your panels are generating the expected energy output.
✔ Inverter Configuration – We ensure your system is optimised for efficiency and seamlessly integrated into your home’s electricity supply.
✔ Battery Testing (if applicable) – If you have chosen battery storage, we ensure it is properly set up and ready to store excess solar energy.

Once everything is tested and running perfectly, we walk you through your new solar system, showing you:

✔ How to monitor energy production and track your savings
✔ How to manage battery storage (if applicable)
✔ How to make the most of your solar power

We also provide all documentation and warranty details, and our team is always available for ongoing support.
