Installing commercial PV panel systems


Refurbishing a metal roof before solar panel installation

You should consider the life cycle of a metal roof before installing PV panels. To avoid costs associated with removing the panels to carry out any roof maintenance or repairs in the future, the roof should be refurbished before solar panels are installed.

The expected life cycle of commercial PV panel systems is 20 to 25 years, with a payback of up to 10 years, so it is crucial that your roof is able to match this.

Protect your assets through refurbishment

Sharmans market leading roof refurbishment systems Delcote® and Seamsil® are proven to extend the life cycle of industrial and commercial roofs, therefore protecting the long term investment made in solar panel systems.

The cost of coating the roof with our Delcote® full roof coating is a fraction of the total cost of the solar panel system. This small investment protects your larger investment.
