Yes. Many Melville homes across Alfred Cove, Attadale and Willagee have established terracotta or concrete tile roofs. We use tile-specific mounting brackets and proper flashing to secure panels without cracking tiles or causing leaks. During the assessment we check the roof condition and battens, since older tiles can be brittle and occasionally need a spare or two replaced during the install.
It can. Riverside Melville properties near the Swan and Canning foreshores often have mature paperbarks and established gardens that cast shadows across parts of the roof at certain times of day. We assess shading patterns during the site visit and, where needed, use panel optimisers or microinverters so that shading on one section doesn’t reduce the output of the whole array.
