The 5-Step Installation Process
Step 1: Coastal-Aware Survey
Our surveyor assesses your Grimsby property considering coastal factors for properties near the docks and estuary, and standard assessment for inland properties.
- Roof condition and structural assessment
- Salt exposure evaluation for coastal properties
- Wind loading assessment
- Shading analysis from neighbouring buildings
Step 2: System Design
We design your system considering Grimsby's specific conditions, specifying marine-grade components for properties closest to the docks and estuary.
Step 3: Planning Considerations
Most Grimsby installations fall under permitted development. Properties in conservation areas or near listed buildings need consideration through North East Lincolnshire Council.
Grimsby Docks Conservation Area
Properties near the historic docks may have conservation considerations. Check with North East Lincolnshire Council planning department.
Step 4: Installation
Installation typically takes 1-2 days. For coastal properties, we use marine-grade fixings and enhanced weatherproofing.
Day 1
Scaffolding, mounting system, panel installation
Day 2
Inverter, electrical connections, testing
Step 5: Grid Connection & Handover
We notify Northern Powergrid and complete all documentation. You'll receive guidance on monitoring and maintaining your system.
