Solar installers in Chelmsford
Chelmsford is the county city and one of our busiest patches, around 20 minutes from Braintree. It combines large new-build developments such as Beaulieu and Channels — where roofs are often already solar-ready or carry a few builder-fitted panels that can be upgraded — with Victorian and inter-war streets closer to the centre.
Working across Chelmsford
The surrounding villages — Writtle, Danbury, Galleywood, Boreham — and South Woodham Ferrers add a mix of period and 1970s–80s housing. Writtle and Danbury have conservation areas; most other roofs are straightforward.
Typical roofs and housing
New-build estates with concrete tiles and integrated roof systems, inter-war semis in the suburbs, and period properties in the villages.

Before you book
Surveys
What happens on a solar survey
A survey is how we measure your roof, electrics, and energy use before anyone commits to panels. Here is what to expect, and what you will receive afterwards.
Installation
What to expect on install day
A typical home installation is planned around scaffolding, roof work, and electrical commissioning. Here is how the day usually runs.
System size
Choosing a solar system size
BlankSolar installs packages from 2kW to 6kW, and larger systems where the roof and supply allow it. Size should follow the property, not a default package.
