Lambton, Newcastle — Solar install
Lambton: older roofs, modern systems
A residential solar installation in Lambton — one of Newcastle's older suburbs, where roof and switchboard condition drive the design.

About this job
Lambton's housing stock is largely pre-war cottages and post-war brick, much of it since extended. That means multiple roof planes of different ages and materials on the same house, and a mounting plan that has to account for all of them.
Tiles are common here, and tiles need care. We lift and inspect before fitting, use proper tile-replacement flashings where required, and reseat everything before leaving the roof.
Switchboards in Lambton often predate rooftop solar entirely. We open and assess the board as part of quoting, so if an upgrade is needed it appears in the written price rather than on install day.
The suburb's mature street trees are worth mentioning too. Shading from a neighbour's gum can quietly cost a household a meaningful share of its generation, which is why panel placement here is planned from a site visit rather than a satellite image.
