Glasgow's Southside covers a wide range — Pollokshields tenements (G41), Battlefield/Mount Florida terraces (G42) and Shawlands semis (G43). Single-family homes with their own roofs are easier to fit than tenement flats. Indicative 4 kWp price: £5,200–£6,800.
What drives the price in Southside
Pollokshields Conservation Area imposes tight constraints on G41 front-elevation installs.
Many G42 inter-war semis have generous south-west aspects — strong generation.
Home Energy Scotland's interest-free loan (up to £6,000) is available to Scottish homeowners — ask installers to factor this in.
