Your use and your roof decide the layout.
Residential solar / Muswell Hill & Crouch End
Residential solar in Muswell Hill and Crouch End.
Muswell Hill and Crouch End are known for Victorian and Edwardian villas, terraces and mansion-style houses beneath Alexandra Palace. REX surveys, designs and installs residential solar and battery storage across N10 and N8, shaped around each roof.
Your Muswell Hill & Crouch End project
Start with what the property needs.
The useful result is a system you understand: how it fits, what it is expected to generate and where a battery may help.
Period roofs read carefully
Gables, bays and chimneys shrink the usable roof. We map what remains.
Battery on the numbers
Storage is only recommended where it earns its place.
Plans for the house
Loft rooms and extensions are part of the design.
Neat installation
Fixings, wiring and equipment positions are agreed beforehand.

Local considerations
A closer look at Muswell Hill & Crouch End.
Villas and terraces
The streets around Muswell Hill Broadway and Crouch End Clock Tower are lined with Victorian and Edwardian houses. Roofs are often steep and complex, with the best slopes sometimes at the back. A survey tells us which.
Hills, views and shade
The area slopes up towards Alexandra Park and the Palace. That brings views, but also tree cover and shade. We look at shade across the day and year before giving any estimate.
Why REX
From the survey to a clear proposal.
Send the address, a recent bill or usage summary, roof photos and any building plans. We will review them and survey the roof. The proposal sets out layout, equipment, expected generation, access and the work included.
Before you decide
Solar questions in Muswell Hill & Crouch End.
Will panels spoil the look of my house?
They do not have to. Rear or side slopes, neat fixings and tidy wiring help. You see the proposed layout before agreeing.
Do I need consent in a conservation area?
It can depend on which slope the panels go on. Check with the council first.
Can an older roof take panels?
Usually, once condition and structure are checked. Repairs should come first.
Do you cover Hornsey and Highgate?
We survey and install across North London. Send your postcode to confirm.
Is my street in a conservation area?
Haringey Council has a Crouch End Conservation Area and an Alexandra Park and Palace area, among 29 conservation areas in the borough. A conservation area does not automatically rule out solar, but extra rules can apply. Check your address with the council. REX can advise on roof options.
