Absolar is proud to announce the successful completion of a rooftop solar installation at WA Cafe | Japanese Patisserie in London.
The project was more than a straightforward installation. As Senior Project Manager Akash explained during a post-completion walkthrough, the roof was initially not in good condition. Before moving forward with solar, the Absolar team treated and strengthened the roof, extending its service life and ensuring it was ready to support clean energy for many years to come.
When businesses invest in solar, they expect more than clean energy — they expect reliability, safety, and long-term value. At Absolar, we make this our priority on every project.
Recently, our Senior Project Manager Akash shared a behind-the-scenes look from one of our completed commercial sites. What began as a roof in poor condition became a success story in careful planning, quality engineering, and sustainable delivery.
Before the first solar panel could be installed, our team carried out a detailed survey. It was clear the roof required treatment to ensure it could support a solar system for decades to come. Instead of rushing ahead, we invested the time to strengthen and extend the service life of the roof itself.
By preparing the roof first, we not only safeguarded the integrity of the building but also maximised the return on investment for the client. Solar is a long-term asset — and it needs to be built on a foundation that lasts just as long.
Every Absolar project follows the same principle: take care at every stage, from assessment and design to installation and aftercare. The result is a solar solution that’s engineered for performance, resilience, and sustainability.
Because solar should never be a quick fix. It should be a long-term contribution to your business and to the planet.
Installed with Care. Built to Last.
Absolar’s team combines advanced remote surveying with meticulous project planning and stakeholder coordination - a critical factor in delivering safe, cost-effective installations at scale.
As this project progresses, we’ll continue to share updates and outcomes; and showcase how clean energy can work hand-in-hand with thoughtful design, safety, and long-term value for businesses and communities.
