What our customers say…

  • They came out and did an actual survey as opposed to looking at it on Google Maps and doing it by phone, ask us what we need based on our previous consumption rather than just giving us an off the shelf quote. From survey to install with six weeks and the whole install took two days Everything happened when it’s when they said it would. And we were fully informed at all stages.

  • The installation of the solar panels went like a dream. The gang arrived early, got straight on with it, all finished before lunchtime! Danny and Lewis were efficient in organising it.
