FAQs about solar roof servicing

Do solar roofs need regular servicing?

Yes, regular servicing of your solar roof will:

• Increase energy production

• Help identify and fix issues early, saving you money on expensive repairs in the long run

• Protect any existing warranties

How often should I have my solar roof serviced?

An annual service is a common recommendation for solar roofs. Some manufacturers suggest inspections every 1–2 years, but yearly checks are a safe guideline, especially as roof-integrated systems are harder for homeowners to visually inspect themselves.

Do solar roofs lose efficiency if not serviced?

Yes, solar roofs can lose efficiency if they aren’t serviced regularly. Dirt, debris, and minor faults can build up over time, reducing energy output.

Do I need to tell my electricity supplier I have a solar roof?

You don’t always need to tell your electricity supplier that you have a solar roof, unless:

• You have an export tariff (e.g., SEG)

• You want correct billing

• Their terms require notification

However, you must notify your Distribution Network Operator (DNO) for any solar installation — roof tiles or panels — because it affects the local grid. This is a legal/regulatory requirement in the UK under G98/G99 rules.
