Why Nantwich gets a guide of its own
Two things set Nantwich apart. Its centre is a conservation area full of listed buildings, so the planning route matters before anything else. And the villages around it, Audlem, Wrenbury, Bunbury and Wybunbury among them, are largely heated by oil and LPG, so the question of what solar is for is different there. National advice covers neither well.
Who reads it
- Owners in the town centre who want to know whether their roof needs an application.
- Owners of listed and timber-framed buildings, whose route starts with the council.
- Village households on oil or LPG weighing panels against a change of heating.
- People with large gardens considering a frame instead of the roof.
- Flat dwellers, tenants and landlords, where someone else holds the decision.
What it deliberately leaves out
Opinions on whether a particular listed building would get consent, because that is the council’s decision and depends on things only a site visit shows. Savings figures and payback periods, which rest on tariffs and habits we cannot see. Firm names and rankings; the installer checklist shows how to judge a firm yourself. Where the honest answer is “ask the council”, the page says so.
What it never does
- Install, sell, design or survey anything.
- Speak for Cheshire East Council, Historic England or any scheme.
- Give planning, legal or financial advice on an individual case.
- Ring anyone back: questions come in through the form, and replies go out by email.
Protections it points you to
MCS certification for solar PV; a consumer code approved by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute, such as RECC or HIES; TrustMark where a scheme asks for it; an insurance-backed guarantee behind the workmanship warranty; a clean Companies House record; and a written quote with no obligation. For listed and conservation-area work, also a clear statement of who prepares the drawings and who makes the application. Choosing an installer goes through them.
