Roath homeowners installing solar panels, battery storage or EV chargers often need electrical upgrades to ensure safe and compliant operation. GL Solar's NAPIT-approved electricians carry out consumer unit replacements, cable upgrades, earthing improvements and EICR inspections across Roath, Plasnewydd and the surrounding east Cardiff area.

Roath is known for its Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, much of which still has original or ageing electrical installations. Properties on Albany Road, City Road and in the streets surrounding Roath Park often have old fuse boards, insufficient cable capacity and outdated earthing that cannot safely support modern solar inverters, battery systems or EV chargers. Our electricians specialise in upgrading these older installations.

We provide free electrical assessments for Roath homeowners as part of our solar and battery installation service. During the survey, our electricians check your consumer unit capacity, cable sizes, earthing arrangements and overall installation condition. Any required upgrades are quoted upfront with a fixed price — no hidden costs.

GL Solar also offers standalone electrical services across Roath — including EICR inspections, consumer unit replacements, additional circuits and full rewires for period properties. All work is completed to BS 7671 standards by NAPIT-approved electricians, with full certification and Building Control notification where required.
