How We Carry Out Your Solar Panel Repair

When your solar panel system develops a fault, whether that’s reduced output, an inverter error, or a battery storage issue, our engineers carry out a full diagnostic to identify exactly what’s causing the problem. We check panel connections, wiring, inverters, isolators and battery storage components using specialist testing equipment, rather than guessing based on symptoms alone.

The most common faults we find include loose or corroded connections, failing inverters, damaged or degraded panels, and battery storage systems that are no longer holding charge properly. Once we’ve identified the cause, we carry out the repair work needed to get your system back to full performance, replacing individual components where possible rather than the whole system.

 

If you’re not sure whether your system has a fault or just needs a routine check, our Solar Panel Inspection service covers periodic inspections, drone thermographic surveys and safety checks, and is worth booking before a small issue turns into a bigger repair job.

 

On completion of any repair, we provide a written summary of the fault found and the work carried out, so you have a record for your own files or to share with your insurer.

Why Choose TES Compliance for Solar Panel Repair

Our solar panel repairs are designed to fix the fault correctly the first time, restoring performance without unnecessary cost. TES Compliance delivers repair and fault finding services that meet the same standards as our inspection work.

NICEIC Approved Engineers

Every repair is carried out by NICEIC approved engineers, working to the same standards as our inspection and testing services. You can be confident the work is done to a professional, recognised standard.

Thorough Diagnosis Before Any Repair

We test your system fully before recommending any repair, checking connections, inverters, isolators and battery storage components to identify the actual cause of the fault rather than just treating the symptoms.

Component-Level Repairs

Where possible, we repair or replace the specific component causing the fault rather than the whole system, keeping the work proportionate to the problem.

Solar Panels and Battery Storage Covered

Our engineers diagnose and repair faults across both solar panels and battery storage systems, so you don’t need a separate contractor for each part of your installation.

Written Summary of Every Repair

You receive a written summary of the fault found and the repair work carried out, giving you a record for your own files or to support an insurance claim.

Nationwide Coverage with Fast Response

What Is a Solar Panel Repair and What Does It Involve?

A solar panel repair is the fix that follows once a fault has been found, whether that’s through your own observation, a periodic inspection, or a drop in performance you’ve noticed on your system’s monitoring app. Where an inspection identifies and documents a problem, a repair is the hands-on work to put it right.

 

Most faults start small. A loose connection or a failing bypass diode might only cause a slight drop in output at first, but left alone it can lead to heat build-up, further component damage, or in more serious cases a fire risk. Addressing a fault as soon as it’s found protects both the performance of your system and your investment in it.

 

Battery storage faults follow a similar pattern. A cell that’s no longer holding charge properly, or a fault in the battery management system, can reduce the amount of stored energy available to you and, if left unresolved, shorten the lifespan of the whole battery unit. Our engineers diagnose these faults using the same specialist testing equipment used across the rest of our electrical work.

 

Getting a fault repaired promptly also matters for insurance and warranty purposes. A documented repair, carried out by a qualified engineer, gives you a clear record that the issue was dealt with correctly and on time.

Signs You Need a Solar Panel Repair

These are the most common signs that a solar panel or battery storage system needs professional attention.

Solar Panels Not Working At All

If your solar panels have stopped generating power completely, this is usually caused by an inverter fault, a tripped isolator, or a wiring issue rather than the panels themselves. Our engineers can quickly identify what’s stopped your system and get it running again.

Reduced or Dropping Output

If your system is generating noticeably less than it used to, or your monitoring app is showing a sudden drop, it’s usually a sign of a fault rather than normal wear.

Inverter Errors or Warning Lights

An error code or warning light on your inverter is one of the clearest signs something needs attention. Our engineers can diagnose the cause and carry out the repair needed.

Visible Panel Damage

Cracked glass, discolouration or visible damage to a panel can affect both its output and its safety, and should be checked and repaired promptly.

Battery Not Holding Charge

If your battery storage system is discharging faster than it should, or not reaching full charge, this usually points to a fault in the battery or its management system.

After Storm or Weather Damage

High winds, hail or heavy snow can damage panel mounting, cabling and connections, even where the damage isn’t obvious from the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about thermographer services, thermal imaging surveys and what to expect from your inspection report.

How much does a solar panel repair cost?

Costs depend on the fault found and the parts or work required, so we always diagnose the issue first before quoting for the repair. Get in touch via our request a quote page for a tailored price.

We aim to respond quickly once a fault is reported, and offer flexible scheduling to get your system back up and running with minimal delay. Timescales depend on the fault and any parts required.

Our engineers work across a wide range of solar panel and inverter makes and models. Let us know the details of your system when you get in touch and we’ll confirm we can help.

In the rare cases where a component can’t be repaired, we’ll explain your options clearly, including replacement, so you can make an informed decision. We’ll always aim to repair rather than replace wherever possible.

If you already know your system has a fault, we can go straight to diagnosing and repairing it. If you’re not sure whether there’s a problem, our Solar Panel Inspection service is a good starting point.
