As an approved Nu-Lok solar panel installer we were proud to be appointed main contractor for St. Silas Church total roof overhaul in Welsh natural slate, incorporating solar PV panels to its South facing elevation.  The first Grade II listed church to receive such and extensive size of panels. The panels used were specially designed to match the colour of the slate following discussions with the architect and planning authority.  The system comprises of 362 panels which will potentially generate 14.84kWp.  The annual kW hours are estimated at 12,337 per annum.  To put this into perspective the solar system would generate enough electricity to run 3 stand alone homes of average consumption. 

The project also required the overhaul of stone masonary, complete renewal of a vast amount of lead and care for all timbers.

During the works the original lathe and plaster ceiling was uncovered which rather than remove or disturb we carefully protected and installed our new roof system over the old untouched ceiling.
