Modern systems for homes are usually fitted with batteries and since the panel price reduction during late 2024, homes are maximising their roof space with as many panels as possible.

 

Commercial and business clients, depending on use, can go for standard systems maximising output or large systems with storage. We have fitted solar for a huge range of business types including caravan parks, restaurants, farms, construction, food processing - any business that consumes electricity can benefit from solar.

 

We fit black panels as standard usually with an output of 440 watts per panel. We only fit Tier 1 panels with market leading warranties up to 25 years.

 

With Inverters and Batteries we recommend using the same manufacturer for both inverter and battery. Our standard equipment can be fitted inside or outside with batteries scalable up to 25kw.

 

DNO compliance - here at GMC depending on your system we take care of grid compliance.

 

G98 - if your system inverter is under 3.68kw (could have up to 5kw panels with this inverter) we simply notify the local DNO once we have installed your system and request an export MPAN number for you to apply for export payments.

 

G99 - if your system inverter produces more than 3.68 we need to apply for permission first. GMC do this on your behalf and secure permission before we begin the install. Depending on the system there can sometimes be a connection fee. We keep you up to date with this during the process.

 

Here at GMC we operate a no sales approach. We provide either a pre-survey estimate using online tools or a site visit where an engineer will access your home suitability and look at your energy consumption to design the best option for you. With either option you have price and all the information to make a decision in your own time.

 

After care - installing Solar for 15 years this year (2025)! We are still available for clients should they need. Any problems in the future, missing documents we keep on file for you.

 

Storm damage or house alterations and need advice GMC are here for you.

I can without hesitation recommend GM Craig for fitting Solar Panels...

We have used GM Craig last year to install Solar Panels on our roof. I found them most helpful and courteous and installed the system without any problems. Their workmen carried out the work with due diligence and in a tidy manner.

We recommend GMC to all of our family and friends...

Our PV, Solar Panels have exceeded our predicted output. Our electricity bills are a lot lower and the rebates are easy to administer through our provider. We recommend GMC to all of our family and friends.
