    Solar Panel Installation

    Posted 26 October 2025

    Friendly, reliable and expert service

    Sam and his team quietly and efficiently worked exceptionally hard to replace an entire old solar system with the latest technology, not only that but went above and beyond the basic requirements to provide the very best installation possible. Very pleased with the installation and standard of workmanship, their work ethic and friendly service, I can thoroughly recommend without hesitation and will use again.

Super friendly service, had some of the items required for the job delivered directly to me and the job was completed professionally, on time with no messing around. All this and a really competitive price too !

    Solar Panel Servicing / Repair

    Posted 14 September 2025

    Clean,tidy and reliable

    The work Sam carried out was thorough and comprehensive. He chased up the supplier of a component in our solar panel system (that he hadn't supplied) to be replaced under warranty. He then fitted it and completed the rest of the job which included 2 storage batteries. Since fitting these at the end of July I have seen my weekly bill more than half. I am just paying the standard charge plus a couple of pence a day for electricity. A very clean, tidy and reliable tradesman.

    Superb Solar Installation

    It seems crazy, given the price hikes in energy prices, that we as a nation are not collecting, storing and using more solar energy. With both ethical and financial reasons, I committed to having a solar panel installation on my cottage. I had already been recommended a local company by a friend, Ellward-Smith, for the installation and enjoyed the initial consultation with Sam, who discussed our needs and explained both the process and the technology applied. The actual installation took place over a week and was seamless. We have been delighted with the Solar Power installation.
