Solar Panel Installation & Repairs in Poole

Savings depend on your system size, how much electricity you use during daylight hours and whether you add battery storage. Households that use a good share of what they generate typically see the largest reduction in their bills, and adding a battery pushes self-consumption higher by storing daytime generation for the evening peak. At survey we model your figures using your actual usage rather than quoting a headline percentage.

Most domestic installations in Poole are completed within one to two days on site. Larger arrays, in-roof systems and installations that include battery storage may run to three days. You will be given a schedule at survey so you know exactly what to expect.

For the majority of homes, solar panels fall under permitted development and no application is needed. Listed buildings and properties in conservation areas — including parts of Poole Old Town, Wimborne Minster and some coastal roads — can require consent, and we will raise it at survey if we believe it applies to your property.

All electrical work is carried out and certified by MCS-accredited electricians. That certification is also what your energy supplier will ask for before an export arrangement can be set up on your account.

Yes. Systems are fully guaranteed, with manufacturer warranties on panels, inverters and batteries alongside our own workmanship guarantee. We will set out exactly what each warranty covers, and for how long, in your written quotation.

Yes — most of our repair work is on systems installed by other companies, including installers who are no longer trading. We diagnose the fault first, then quote a fixed price before carrying out any work.

Surplus electricity is either stored in a battery for later use or exported to the grid, where your supplier pays you for it under an export tariff. Which is better value depends on your tariff, and it is one of the things we go through when sizing a system.

Very little day to day, but they are not maintenance-free. A periodic check of the panels, connections, inverter and mounting hardware catches small faults early, and cleaning matters more here than inland because of salt film and gull activity near the harbour and coast.

Yes. Alongside Poole we regularly work across Bournemouth, Christchurch, Broadstone, Wimborne, Ferndown, Corfe Mullen, Wareham and the surrounding Dorset villages. Our coverage page lists the areas we serve most often.

Not when they are fitted correctly. Ikonic Solar comes from a roofing background, so brackets are fixed into rafters and every roof penetration is properly flashed and sealed. If we find a roof that is not fit to carry an array, we will say so before installation rather than afterwards.
