Thinking of going solar? You need to ask yourself these 3 questions first
Explore essential factors to consider before installing solar panels. Make an informed decision for a sustainable future.
We'd love to change the design, install a whole new roof. Perhaps extend the height, I'm wondering if you do other stuff besides the roof. Like painting the house, installing tiles on the wall, pavement, floor tiles, kitchen units installation etc. We're looking on renovating the house but we're comparing the prices for now.
I am having fully installed solar power system which worked for roughly 6 months and the battery keeps on tripping on its Circuit breaker. The installer informed me that it is over discharged. He took it and recharged it and only worked for one day and it is still doing the same thing. I am using this to run 5×4m freezer room. I am told is a 9kw solar power system. It never worked for the entire year and I don't see the benefit of having it. Please come to assess and give recommendations.
Clear IBR (?) sheeting over a section of the garage (two car tunnel) lifted in strong wind. Currently held down by a couple of rocks but needs replacement. Perhaps general inspection of rest of roof would be good idea. Also wooden shelter between Kitchen and Garage which is flat, has bitumised (Laycool) (?) top. which has leak. Am concerned water collecting there could cause wood rot. Hasn't had bitumen redone for a year or two Needs redoing.
I need 3 quotes in total First Quote is for the main house Its a 3 bedroom house, with electrical geyser, 2 fridges, 1 freezer. The solar system must be able to pull them as well as the small house hold appliances such as the kettle and microwave. The House has a gas stove Second quote is for the first flat 2 bedroom flatlet, with electrical geyser, 1 fridges, 1 freezer. the solar system must be able to pull them as well as the small house hold appliances such as the kettle and microwave. The flat has a Gas Stove Third Quote is for the second Flat 2 bedroom flatlet, 1 fridges,. the solar system must be able to pull them as well as the small house hold appliances such as the kettle and microwave. This flat has a gas geyser All three is on one property, and the quotes can be for rental on the Solar power or to buy the system.
The leak is only on one side of the pitched roof close to the parapet wall. The leak is intermittent depending on the angle of the rain. On inspection the tiles all appear to be in good condition and no cracks were found. It could be something to do with the flashing installed where the tiles meet the wall.
the house is a 7.3x7.3m square, with the front wall height 4.2m (all walls cladded with metal sheeting) and the back wall 3m high. the roof is 7.3x7.4m. id like to request a roofing expert or someone with knowledge of flashing and trim, to quote me for the full installation of metal on all four sides of the building, the roof, and a 7.3x3m lean to stoep roof. the site is in de rust, and doesnt have access to electricity. will need battery operated machines for roofing.
My roof leaks every time that there is heavy rain. If there is continuous light rain, it will not leak. It leaks mostly on the Eastern side, but if the heavy rain continues for a while, then it leaks everywhere in the house. My husband keeps insisting that it is the wind blowing in rain, but even when there is no wind and only heavy rain it will leak.
My patio and garage roofs are currently flat roofs, constructed of metal sheeting covered with torch-on waterproofing. The patio roof was damaged in the hail storm in November last year. I would like quotes to replace both of these roofs with proper angled structures, with either tiles per the main house or metal sheeting of a matching colour. Project objectives: durability, low maintenance going forward, good water run off/guttering. We are looking at an area of approx 75 m2.
Hi there I am in the process of purchasing a home. It currently has a flat sheeting roof which has started to leak. I would like to find out (more or less) what the cost would be per square meter, to convert to Harvey tiles or a tiled roof. I understand a proper quote would be impossible without inspecting the house, and am looking for a base number per square meter if at all possible. Please connect via email only. Thank you!
Solar panels of at least 6kva to run one freezer, 3 door fridge & freezer combo, 2 TV sets, lights and 0,75 submissable.water pump. Quote hybrid inverter and batteries separately from the panels. There must also be charge controllers (MPPT) and be compatible to feed extra power to the manucipality grid when it allowed to do so in the future We want to buy panels the last week February.
