Lichfield is a cathedral city with a large conservation area of Georgian and older brick buildings around the Close, Bore Street and Dam Street. Around that core are 20th-century estates such as Boley Park, Leomansley and Curborough, and big new developments at Streethay and on the southern edge of the city.
In Lichfield's conservation area, panels visible from the street may need planning permission; elsewhere, most domestic solar is permitted development. Lichfield District Council can confirm. Lichfield's newer homes are well suited to solar and heat pumps, while in the conservation area panel placement and outdoor unit siting need more thought.
For Lichfield (WS13 and WS14), planning applications are handled by Lichfield District Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is about nine miles down the A51 from our Rugeley yard.
We size systems on your real usage, not on how many panels fit on the roof. That keeps the design sensible and gives you a clear idea of what the system should generate before you commit.
Battery storage can be fitted with new solar or added to an existing system. We explain how a battery would be charged and used in your home, so you can decide whether it is worth it for you.

📍 Rob, Lichfield
We turned Rob's garden in Lichfield into a complete outdoor living space, with sandstone paving, decorative gravel on a stabilisation grid, raised sleeper beds and a new 8x4 shed on a concrete base. The centrepiece is a semi-sunken block-and-brick firepit area under a hardwood pergola. We also fitted a new 7.3m canopy, a hardwood gate and new fencing, and kept the Red Robin and roses Rob wanted to save.
📍 Becky, Lichfield
We restored Becky's paving in Lichfield. We cleaned and re-grouted around 60m² of patio, plus the pathway, the steps and the coping tiles, so the whole garden looks fresh again.
Lichfield's newer homes are well suited to solar and heat pumps, while in the conservation area panel placement and outdoor unit siting need more thought. We assess each property individually before recommending a system.
Most domestic roof-mounted solar is permitted development, but listed buildings, some conservation areas and flat roofs can need permission. Lichfield District Council can confirm for your property.
