Plus the surrounding Leicestershire area. This is not an exhaustive list — if you are just outside it, put your postcode in anyway and we will tell you straight away rather than leave you guessing.
Why we only cover one city
Because the useful part of a quote is local. Leicester housing is mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, interwar semis, and post-war estates, with clay plain tile and slate on the older stock, concrete tile on later housing. Leicester's Edwardian terraces often carry chimney stacks mid-slope, which can shade part of an array through the middle of the day and is a common reason to specify optimisers. An installer who works here every week already knows that; one covering half the country does not.
What happens if I am just outside
Send the enquiry anyway. Installer coverage does not stop neatly at a boundary, and if nobody we work with covers you we will say so rather than pass your details to someone who will not turn up.
Grid connection in this area
Domestic systems here are notified to National Grid Electricity Distribution (East Midlands). Most are handled after installation under G98; larger systems, or areas where the local network is already constrained, need a G99 application and approval first. Your installer deals with this either way — it is worth asking which route applies before you commit to dates.
