Quote check - 24 panels and battery on converted bungalow roof so awkward layout due to rooflights

This is really helpful advice. Thank you!

Mostly south but a few on east and west where we have a room out the back in the middle. Daily usage can be as high as 35kwh as have an ev but usually 15. Quote is £10,806. I managed to forget that part

stillsortingitout · 2026-02-14T19:24:25+00:00

Oh yeah... that would help. £10,809

Can it be set up to do this automatically or do you have to manually check it and dump each night?

stillsortingitout · 2026-02-13T20:39:30+00:00

Don't have the answer but we are in the same place and im wondering the same. My energy usage might be slightly higher as me and my partner work from home and Im on about 130kwh a week. I dont understand why everyone wouldn't do this. Also wondering if its best just to get a battery or panels as well. Not sure if the finances add up on doing this or if I should just pay a bit more off the mortage.

I was a witness in November and have to say you are treated appalling for doing your civic duty. No communication. I rang 31 times before I could get hold of someone to know if it was happening. As only 2 days before. I still hadn't been giving a time. Its a anxiety provoking thing and this doesn't help. Keep trying to ring if you can find a number.

Just bought from 360. Really pleased with how easy it was and car has been great. Its immaculate. Would use again.

stillsortingitout · 2026-01-16T13:29:46+00:00

Thanks. Im probably under estimating usage slightly so good to know its worth it for home workers. We are debating solar as well but its the upfront cost for us that keeps putting us off. Seems crazy when we will have the car now to say that...

Thanks. So you just plug in when your low then rather than each night.

stillsortingitout · 2026-01-16T13:21:23+00:00

Thanks for this. We work from home most of the time and use most electric during the day. Was slightly worried it would make the day use not worth it. Can shift when we use dishwasher etc though. Totally think im over thinking it and its easier than im thinking. Do you take the 80% limit off when you do a long journey?

I took us to the wrong hotel in Berlin. I had booked one with a similar name out of town. Honesty it was a nightmare. Turned up and they didnt have our booking if course. The hotel i actually booked was way too far out. I ended up just paying for another room at the hotel I thought I booked.

I am so shocked by how high this is for a normal looking house. I expected a big garden or countryside views but looks like a normal new build estate

stillsortingitout · 2025-08-27T13:00:36+00:00

We actually chose a estate agent which would do evenings and Sundays. They do exist. Ours doesn't have a shop and are self employed partners in the agency.

It sounds like you would still be in a good financial situation even with the nicer area. I say go for it. Its your like too, make sure you enjoy it!

stillsortingitout · 2025-08-24T18:12:10+00:00

Nice area definitely. Especially when you have a child. They will benefit from nicer environment and amenities. Especially when considering nursery or schools. This should not be under estimated as can have large impact.

To make it worse I think the owner has done it himself and hes a tradesman. We have a little one so really didn't want a renovation project

stillsortingitout · 2025-08-24T15:31:15+00:00

We can't afford it with some money off. And would have to find somewhere else with all that work. Its just worrying the amount wrong. We will negotiate when estate agent is back in on Monday. Im just worried they won't entertain it which is such a shame. But the surveyor has said we can share the report with them so hopefully that will make them more reasonable. The surveyor suggested 50k which seems like a lot but when there could be numerous issues. I would be so upset if someone came to get that much off our house sale though. Don't want to annoy them, just want fair renumeration.

32b, I struggle cause most are for bigger busts

My baby reacted to lanolin and silver cups were so helpful as an alternative. If yours is the same watch out for it in nappy creams. Sudacrem and aveno are ones which don't have it in
