Planning and safety in Uppingham
In Uppingham, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Planning: Solar shutters look much the same as mains shutters from outside, so the same planning advice applies.
- Orientation: We check daylight on the panel at survey; heavily shaded openings may need a remote panel or mains power.

Are solar shutters more expensive?
The shutter costs more than a mains version, but you save on electrical work, which often makes the total similar.
Is the survey free in Uppingham?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
