A Village of Farms and Smallholdings

There isn't much dense housing in Stuartfield — it's a small village surrounded by working farms and smaller holdings, and that's who most of our enquiries here come from. Bigger plots and fewer neighbours change what's worth considering compared with a town job.

Ground-Mounted Arrays Suit Larger Plots

With more open land available than a typical town garden, a ground-mounted array is often worth comparing against roof-mount from the start. You're not limited by roof pitch, orientation or shading from nearby buildings, and it's usually easier to size the system around future usage rather than what the roof happens to allow.

Three-Phase Supply for Bigger Systems

Larger farm systems sometimes outgrow a standard single-phase domestic supply. If you're planning a sizeable array, or thinking about adding equipment later, we check your existing supply at survey and tell you honestly if a three-phase upgrade is worth discussing with your network operator. It's not needed for every job, but it's worth knowing about before you commit to a system size — this comes up more with commercial and agricultural solar jobs than standard household ones.

The Drive From Peterhead

We'll be honest about this one — Stuartfield is one of the longer drives from our Peterhead base, further out than Mintlaw or Ellon. It doesn't stop us covering it properly; we just build travel time into scheduling rather than pretending it's next door.
