LOCAL HOUSING
What kinds of homes are in Westhill?
Westhill is a planned town developed from the 1960s onwards, so most housing is relatively modern with standard tiled roofs. Detached and semi-detached homes dominate, with good roof space and straightforward fixing methods.
Some older properties and farmsteads exist on the rural fringes towards Skene, which may have different roof types and heating systems. The survey confirms the right approach for each property.
ROOF AND WEATHER
Is Westhill a good spot for solar panels?
Westhill sits at a slightly higher elevation than Aberdeen city, which can mean more wind exposure. The survey checks that roof fixings are specified for the conditions. Being inland, salt air is not typically a concern here.
West-facing roofs in Westhill catch afternoon and evening sun, which pairs well with a battery to store that electricity for later use. South-facing roofs give the highest total output.

QUESTIONS
What do people ask about solar in Westhill?
Do you install in Westhill?
Yes. We arrange solar panels, batteries and heat pumps for homes across Westhill, Aberdeen City and every AB postcode in Aberdeenshire. Our installation partner carries out the work after a survey of your property, so nothing is agreed until you have seen a written quote.
Can I add a battery to my existing solar panels?

Are there any local issues to think about in Westhill?
Westhill's elevation can mean slightly more wind exposure than Aberdeen city centre, which the survey accounts for in fixing specifications. Most homes are on mains gas, so a heat pump is usually considered alongside solar for homes looking to move away from gas.
