Local focus: Shared roofs, metering and business demand
Solar panels · Batteries · EV chargingEstablish who can authorise the roof work
For a Borehamwood flat, leased unit or mixed-use premises, identify the freeholder and any managing agent before commissioning a design. A tenant’s electricity account does not give permission to alter a shared roof.
Agree access, maintenance responsibilities and what happens if the lease ends or the roof needs repair. The installation contract should match the actual ownership arrangement.
Make the metering arrangement explicit
Panels on one roof do not automatically supply every occupier beneath it. Ask which meter receives the generation and who would apply for export payments. A communal supply and an individual dwelling require different billing assumptions.
For a business, compare working-day consumption with weekends and closures. A larger system may produce more surplus at times when the premises are empty, so export assumptions belong in the financial comparison.
Use the appropriate property checks
Hertsmere is the planning authority for Borehamwood. Confirm requirements for the building and proposal, and keep network connection and building-control responsibilities separate.
Include annual usage, opening hours or occupancy, and the roof-owner position in an enquiry. The partner installer confirms the assessment and any final quotation directly with you.
