What Our Customers Say
Hear from homeowners and businesses who have trusted start solar to power their properties with clean, reliable solar solutions.
Andrew and team at start solar made the experience of getting solar energy into our home flawless.there workmanship was first class 👏. And all our questions were answered. The panels and hot water eddi were fitted two weeks ago and already we are seeing the benefits of the system. Long story short we would recommend the team at start solar 100%.
We were struggling and on the verge of closing because of massive energy costs. It felt like every penny we made was going right out the door on bills. Three or four weeks ago, we were on the edge. I remember telling our predicament to the elderly ladies that we host at our Bingo night and they were so upset over the possibility of a closure, they didn’t know where else to go. I knew there wasn’t another option we had to work hard to get ourselves back up.
start solar install team arrived, fitters and electricians, very knowledgeable and competent. Clean and tidy. Guys explained in detail how my system worked and how to get the best efficiency from it. Well pleased.
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
start solar were excellent at guiding us through all the options we had when it came to adding solar and a battery to our house. From the initial phone chat with Suzie, to our assessment with Andrew, we were confident we had picked the right business to work with.
I was particularly keen to ensure that the installation was neat and fitted in well with the existing design of the house, which is where Damien and the install team did such an excellent job. I’ve been so happy the whole process – we have not imported any electricity from the grid since the install one month ago (in fact we are now exporting!).
Would highly recommend.
We’d been thinking of getting solar panels installed for a number of years, but just hadn’t gotten around to doing anything about it…..until now!
The team at start solar installed 17 panels, battery storage, and EV charger and water heater a few weeks ago, and we’re addicted to watching the APP showing the energy being harvested from the sun and locked into the battery for use during the day. Our electric bills are high, working from home, electricity is in constant demand. Since the installation, we’ve used practically no electricity, and we anticipate a payback from the system within 4 to 5 years.
The inverter and battery were installed in the roof space, leaving the wall space in the garage free. The water heater was installed in the Hot Press, and heats the domestic hot water supply when the battery is charged (but you can divert the energy directly to the water heater at will if needed rather than it going directly to the battery). The APPs that track the electricity generation are easy to use, and the system takes care of itself with no intervention needed once set up.
We’d highly recommend the Team at start solar for your solar journey. Suzie and the Team are based locally (in N. Ireland), and are readily contactable should you need any guidance.
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 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.
start solar have been a pleasure to deal with from the initial enquiry to the installation of our PV setup they have been professional, prompt and pleasant. Despite my initial scepticism that the installation would only take a day – the team arrived within 5 minutes of the advised time, had the panels mounted on the roof by lunchtime and the system up and running by 4pm!
No hesitation in recommending Andrew and his team if you are looking at solar PV.
Recently installed 22 panels with start solar on a ground mount with an 8kW battery and a zappi car charger. Although we got of to a bad start, some delays initially, due to storms, materials, poor communication back and forth I eventually got through to Ben who quickly sorted the issues and I couldn’t be happier with the system. Deposit paid in December and system installed in March. Because off all the issues I had with the company I got a very healthy discount and a 200 euro donation to a charity of my choosing in Mayo. Guys came and done the work all in one day. All the lads on the ground were sound to deal with, very helpful and I would recommend them to anyone. I’ve been generating high levels and selling back to the grid since March.
Brilliant service from start to finish. The whole solar panel, battery and converter were explained well. Everything was placed and fitted with minimal disruption to me. These guys know their stuff and just got on with it from the starting block to the finish line. I knew the basics about going solar but since being fitted I have learned so much more. It is definitely worth it, hassle-free and financially rewarding on your fuel bill – always a bonus.
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!
