    Solar Battery Storage

    Posted 15 May

    Great service as always.

    Recently, they added a second battery to my system. The work, price and time scales were all first class.

    Solar Panel Installation

    Top‑Notch Installation and Great Team

    The Solar Edge team were excellent from start to finish. Their attention to detail was spot on, the workmanship was tidy, and they clearly take pride in what they do. They went the extra mile throughout the installation and made sure everything was completed to a really high standard. Reliable, polite, and a pleasure to deal with. Would definitely recommend.

    Solar Battery Storage

    Posted 13 January

    Personal and reliable service

    Solar-rise did an excellent job installing our PV in 2019, and we asked them back to complete a slightly unusual battery installation in 2025. They gave excellent advice and worked with us to come up with solutions that worked for our space.

    Solar Panel Installation

    Posted 15 December 2025

    Friendly small local business. Efficient and committed to doing a good job.

    They were friendly from the start, spent time to explain how it would all work and answer questions The work was completed efficiently, they came when they said they would and kept us informed of the process When it was done they made sure we were hooked up to our energy company so we could export power to the grid, this was really difficult to fathom so Steve’s help with this was invaluable. I would highly recommend. They did a great job and we are happy with the results

    Solar Panel Installation

    Great personal service, experienced team.

    We were really happy to have this small team fit a solar panel system to our house. They are a small local company that we really feel able to trust and give a very individualised service. They were are to cater really flexibly to design what we wanted and were able to problem-solve ahead of any obstacles. As a small team we felt really comfortable with them working in our house, and have no doubt about their expertise and experience. Their price was really good compared to other quotes. Although it is still winter our system is up and running a looks effective!

    We have now had Solar-Rise round twice to sort out our inverters and batteries (installed by an other firm), Solar -Rise work is excellent, they have now sorted out the whole system, we will be buying further batteries from them next year, and would highly recommend Paul and the team.
