Why Choose Starks Solar in Gosport?

Gosport presents unique challenges for solar installation. Situated on a peninsula, properties here are exposed to higher wind loads and salt-air corrosion than inland areas. Unlike national call centers, Starks Solar understands these local conditions perfectly.

From the Victorian terraces of Newtown that require specialized mounting systems, to the modern developments at Royal Clarence Yard, our in-house team of electricians handles everything. We ensure your system isn't just generating power, but is built to withstand the elements of the Solent.

  • Coastal Ready: We use salt-mist corrosion resistant panels and fixings.
  • Free Bird Proofing: Essential for Gosport—we stop seagulls nesting under your array.
  • In-House Team: No subcontractors. Just our trusted local employees.

Maximizing Solar Potential on the Hampshire Coast

Gosport and Lee-on-the-Solent enjoy some of the highest annual sunshine hours in the UK, making this region one of the most financially viable locations for photovoltaic (PV) installation. However, the coastal environment requires a specific technical approach that generic installers often overlook.

At Starks Solar, we calculate wind uplift specifically for the exposed nature of the Gosport peninsula. Whether you are in Alverstoke near the Stokes Bay seafront or in a sheltered spot in Bridgemary, our structural calculations ensure your roof integrity is never compromised.

The Seagull Issue: Free Bird Proofing Included

Any homeowner in Gosport knows that seagulls are a persistent presence. Solar panels can provide a warm, sheltered environment for nesting, which leads to noise, mess, and reduced efficiency due to hotspotting.

Unlike many competitors who charge upwards of £300 for this service, Starks Solar includes high-grade bird proofing mesh as standard for all Gosport installations. This mesh is securely fastened around the perimeter of your array, allowing airflow while physically preventing birds and rodents from entering. It protects your investment and preserves the peace and quiet of your home.

Frequently Asked Questions in Gosport

Do I need planning permission for solar in Gosport?
In most of Gosport, solar panels are considered "Permitted Development." However, if you live in a conservation area (like Alverstoke, Anglesey, or parts of Priddy's Hard) or a listed building, restrictions apply. Starks Solar will check the Gosport Borough Council requirements for you during our survey.
Will the salt air damage my panels?
Cheap equipment can corrode near the sea. We only use MCS-certified panels and mounting kits that have passed salt-mist corrosion testing (IEC 61701). This ensures your system lasts 25+ years, even right on the Solent waterfront.
How long does installation take?
For a standard semi-detached or terraced home in Gosport, installation usually takes 1-2 days. Scaffolding is erected a few days prior. We handle all the logistics and clean up thoroughly afterwards.
Can I sell energy back to the grid?
Yes. We help you set up the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). Because Gosport has great solar irradiance, you can often generate more than you use in summer, earning money back from your energy supplier.
What about seagulls nesting under panels?
We know seagulls are a nuisance in Gosport. That is why we include premium bird protection mesh with every install at no extra cost, preventing birds from nesting under your panels and protecting your wiring.
