Solar Panel Installer in Blackley
We're based around the corner in Prestwich and we cover Blackley for solar panel and battery installations. We sponsor the Blackley Lions JFC Under 13s football club - the shirt designs are below.


Blackley properties
Blackley has a wide range of property types, and we've installed across most of them - Victorian terraces with slate roofs, post-war semis, newer-build estates with tile roofs, and the occasional commercial flat-roof job. Most homes in the M9 and M25 postcodes work for solar one way or another. East- and west-facing roofs are common around here, and panels on both slopes can generate as much as a south-only setup, just spread across the day rather than concentrated at midday.
Solar panel efficiency depends on hours of daylight rather than direct sunshine, and Manchester gets close to the same daylight hours as the south of England. The rain helps keep the panels clean as well.
If you're after a battery on its own, that works too. A battery charging on a cheap overnight tariff like Octopus Go (around 9.5p per kWh against 30p+ at peak) and powering the house through the day pays for itself without any solar at all. The Octopus tariff page shows what's currently available for your postcode.
Local install
Ashley does the survey himself and oversees the install, so the recommendations come from the qualified electrician who'll be on site doing the work. Being based in Prestwich means there are no travel charges and we can usually fit a survey in quickly.

Some of these reviews are for our other electrical services - all of them are from verified Blackley customers on our Checkatrade page:

New solar & battery unit
Ashley and his team fitted a solar & battery unit to my house. They were all great. Polite, knowledgeable and efficient. All the work was completed in the agreed timescale. I would definitely recommend them.
Brilliant!
Brilliant! Super professional, inspected the house, highlighted what needed doing the instead of leaving it there, they went out the way to hop to the shop get the part and install it so I could have the full report and everything sorted that day. 100 recommend!
faulty socket
Ashley was friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. He ensured all work was completed to a very high standard and clearly explained what was happening at every stage. Absolutely A* service.
Oven & extractor fan fitting
Renegade came round to install my oven and splashback. Really nice guys and they did a fantastic job, would definitely recommend
Solar installation
We were looking for an off grid solar installation for our allotment. Renegade gave us a very good quote for the job and so we chose them. This turned out to be a great decision. Ashley did a site inspection and we tweaked the initial design to better suit our location. The installation went ahead on the planned date and the work was completed to a very high standard. We had some additional work carried out at the same time, some due to Ashleys recommendation (e.g. swapping our lighting for LED). I highly recommend Renegade as a trustworthy and competent company.
Renegade Electrical Ltd are brilliant!
Renegade Electrical Ltd have been great. They replaced my electric fuse box really quickly and for a really reasonable price too. Would highly recommend 👌
Renegade Electricals - Exceptional service!
In a word...outstanding! Renegade Electricals installed a 10 panel PV system with battery/inverter for us and we're extremely happy with it. Ashley was easy to deal with, reassuring and very professional providing full documentation and keeping us informed throughout the process. His customer service was exceptional and technical knowledge formidable. The panels, even in winter in the grim/grey north west, are producing impressive stats and its great entertainment watching the Alpha-ESS app showing the panels filling the battery up during the day, then discharging in the evening. RECOMMENDED!
Removed my OHME pro from old house and refitted on a new
Ashley is a great bloke really helpful and responsive. Did a lovely job and was very tidy. Will definitely have him back. Thanks 🙏🏼
