Across Poole — the Old Town and Hamworthy, Parkstone, Branksome, Canford Cliffs and Sandbanks, Canford Heath, Oakdale and Creekmoor — and out to Broadstone, Upton and Wareham, our own engineers install solar PV and battery systems, and repair and service systems fitted by any installer. We install our own systems and repair everyone else’s, so we know exactly how they fail.

Solar in Poole
Poole Hospital’s multistorey car parks are getting solar panels.
In March 2025 University Hospitals Dorset received £1.36m to expand solar at Poole Hospital and the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, part of a wider £100m Great British Energy initiative to help NHS sites cut their energy costs. The grant covers the full cost of panels on multistorey car parks, which are expected to generate 700,000kWh a year, saving £177,000 a year in energy bills and around 200 tonnes of carbon annually. The trust is also decarbonising its estate in other ways, including a £2.1m investment in LED lighting. UHD sustainability and carbon manager Stuart Lane said: “This is a real boost to our Green Plan and good for our finances too.”
Hospitals put panels where the space is, and many Poole homes, from Canford Heath to Broadstone, already have them. If yours went up in the feed-in tariff years, a service shows whether the system is still producing what it should, and battery storage lets you keep the daytime surplus for the evening instead of exporting it.

Why L&R
What you get from L&R in Poole.
We know Poole roofs
Poole is built around its harbour, and its roofs follow the water. The Old Town has a conservation area, Hamworthy is Edwardian terraces and post-war streets, and the hill above the harbour at Parkstone is Victorian and Edwardian villas with bigger, more complicated roofs. Branksome Park, Canford Cliffs and Sandbanks run to large detached houses and flats where salt spray and sea wind do the most damage to frames and connectors. Canford Heath, Oakdale, Creekmoor and Upton are mostly 1970s-onwards estates with simple roofs that usually take a full array, though pines on the heathland edges can shade them and drop needles in the gutters.

Questions
The things people ask before they ring.
Not answered here? Call 0800 156 0191, Monday to Friday, 9:00am–5:00pm.
Do you cover Sandbanks, Broadstone, Upton and Wareham?
Yes. Our engineers cover the whole of Poole — the Old Town, Hamworthy, Parkstone, Branksome, Canford Cliffs, Sandbanks, Canford Heath and Oakdale — and out to Broadstone, Corfe Mullen, Upton and Wareham. Call 0800 156 0191 or tell us your postcode in the fault finder and we’ll confirm cover.
Will you repair a system in Poole that another company installed?
Yes. We repair and service systems fitted by any installer, including installers who are no longer trading, and we work on any make of panel, inverter or battery. See solar panel repair and inverter repair.
Can I fit solar panels in Poole Old Town or near the harbour?
Sometimes. Poole Old Town has a conservation area, and some of its buildings are listed, so panels on a street-facing slope can need consent and we check what is likely to be allowed before the survey. Round the harbour and on Sandbanks, salt and wind are harder on frames, clamps and connectors, which we allow for in the design and the yearly service. Poole is in SSEN’s area, and we check the network rules before we quote. See solar panel installations.
