What Our Customers Say

I had Suzie out in April to give me a quote for solar panels after the company did a presentation in my work place. I had been interested for some time but during the presentation it sounded as if it had become more affordable than when I first started looking. Suzie designed a system for us after doing a survey and looking over our electric bill for the year. I opted for 16 panels, inverter, 5kw battery and the Eddi hot water controller. The system was installed at the start of June. The installers were very professional, no wires visible and the system is hidden away. Within just a couple of hours the system was fully functional. I notice that there have been a few miserable days where it didn’t quite cover our electricity usage but most days it covers all of our needs and we also export plenty back to power Ni. Very happy with the system and start solar so far.

Got the solar PV system in (14 panels, 5kW battery, 3.6kW inverter and Eddi water heater) just about 1 week and we’re really pleased with the results. Thus far our draw from the grid is mostly zero and it’s been relatively cloudy too. Installation went really smoothly, was a neat tidy job, and the installers and office folks couldn’t have been more helpful. Calculated payback for the system is ~3.5 years, but with 25+ years warranty on the panels and 12 years on the battery at that point it’s a long period of free energy and is frankly, a total no-brainer! That’s especially true as we have a plug-in hybrid vehicle also so great savings there too! Can’t recommend enough!

Absolutely delighted with my solar panels, Suzie came out to the house and gave us a great breakdown of how the systems worked, we opted for 16 panels, battery and inverter, already seeing the savings.

The guys on the install were very professional polite and very tidy, after the install they sat with me and went through the app in detail and how it all works..

Highly recommend start solar if you are considering getting a solar install..

From the very start I spoke to a sales man called Zaffy and he talked me through the whole process of solar panels and gave me all the advice I needed he was genuine and very obliging as i wasn’t the easiest to deal with, the day of installation all the lads were really nice and professional and done a excellent tidy job, they made sure before they left i was set up using the app and explained everything,im delighted I chose start solar for my solar panels and would strongly advise anyone looking for solar installation to give these lads a shout

We have had our solar panels for about 3 months now. Our experience with each person connected with start solar was positive. Everyone was friendly and very professional at all times. They have made the whole process straightforward and we are enjoying the benefits of the panels. Highly recommended.

Great company to deal with, very neat and clean install, installation lads very friendly and professional. Zaffy sales rep explained everything was great to deal with, have pv system up and running now 2 weeks and its have exceeded my expectations, I should have done it years ago. Thanks guys

I had 16 Solar panels totally 7.12Kw (10 on front roof, 6 on back) installed on 30 Jul along with 2x 5Kw batteries.
I was very surprised that only 2 guys turned up as I was expecting a huge crew considering the work.
The two guys were tidy, polite & had the install finished & handed over by lunch time. Can’t fault them.

The initial consultation with Andrew was also quick & painless & he messaged the evening of the install to check I was happy with how the guys had worked & behaved while at my house.

The install was delayed due to the bank taking FOREVER to get the loan sorted but once the money had arrived in my account the install was complete within 2 weeks.

System is generating away, charging my EV, running the house & exporting a little which is impressive since it’s been cloudy & wet since the install.

Would definitely recommend start solar to friends looking Solar in Northern Ireland.

I had a great experience with start solar and would highly recommend them. From the initial enquiry through to installation, the whole process was very smooth and quick. The team are professional and efficient. Installation was completed in just a couple of hours with no fuss, and everything was left clean and tidy. The system itself is very easy to use and manage, with clear instructions and support if needed. I’m delighted with the results and already seeing the benefits. An excellent service all round.

From start to finish, my experience with start solar has been absolutely fantastic. The pricing process was simple, transparent, and stress-free — no hidden costs or confusing jargon. The initial visit to my home was professional and straightforward, giving me full confidence in their approach right from the beginning.

The installation itself was seamless. The engineers were punctual, polite, and took the time to explain everything clearly. It’s rare to find such a combination of technical expertise and genuine friendliness – they made the whole process a breeze.

A special thanks to Suzie, whose backup service has been second to none. She was always on hand to answer questions, provide updates, and ensure everything ran smoothly. Her customer service is truly exceptional.

I’d spoken to several other providers before choosing start solar, but none matched their level of service, friendliness, or value for money. I’ve already recommended them to friends and family — and with the significant cost savings I’m already seeing, I’ll continue to sing their praises!

Thank you, start solar, and especially Suzie — you’ve made switching to solar one of the best decisions I’ve ever made!

Great business and team (sales & install) to deal with. They were professional and the install was completed quickly and neatly. Already saving me a fortune on energy costs.

100% recommended.
