Spotted this on my travels today, spoke to the bloke who owns the house about it although being a rent a roof he wasn't panicking to much. On the left you can see it's only a single row, so the panels are on the 1 half of the rails and the clamps are obviously hanging off the ends as well.

You should be able to just make it out, bye bye warranty I reckon.

Coincidently, I saw a house with 3 rails on the top row on wednesday, didn't seem to be for any reason in particular and they hadn't clamp the panel down 3 times, just added a third rail in the middle, maybe it was the same firm and so were a rail short!

It's funny what you see out and about, panels that must run out of level by about a foot, mis aligned and all sorts.

Yeah, wasn't the best picture to be fair, but couldn't get a good angle on it and I took the photo before stopping to chat to the bloke who was working on his car. Nice bloke and I tried to go about mentioning without making it look like I was after remedial work.
 
Who the heck puts panels on with a rail missing? i know things are tight but thats taking the mick
 
i couldn't sleep at night if i'd of done that job, i'd be having nightmares about panels flying off the roof
