All the staff at Chelsfield we've come into contact with, at every point in the process of getting our solar panels installed, have been knowledgeable and helpful in every way. They are all happy to get back promptly on email which made organising everything so easy. The phones are always answered quickly. The clear documentation, offering sensible options for our installation, and a clear explanation of the differences, meant we were making informed decisions throughout. On the day the team were prompt and tidy. A well run, efficient organisation, and the equipment supplied seems to be very high quality. Thank you!

We've recently had solar panels fitted. After getting several other potential companies round to quote, we found the information we were given contradictory and confusing. We were recommended to Chelsfield Solar, who came out, surveyed the property properly, gave a reasonable quote and fitted the panels without fuss. An issue with the iBoost (of my making) was quickly sorted out, and Adrian called me to ensure there was no doubt.

The fact that I am bothering to leave a review for Chelsfield Solar says a lot! From the word go they were efficient, reassuring, informative (in words I could understand) and there is only positive to say about the experience. The fitting was quick and clean, and even the scaffolding was up and down within a few days. Can't recommend this company highly enough!

Chelsfield Solar was recommended by a colleague who highlighted their community agenda. This appealed to me and nothing has disappointed me. From the beginning, with an explanation of the technology and the process, through the installation stage, to the after-care I have been impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of everybody concerned. I will have no hesitation in recommending Chelsfield Solar to potential customers (and, indeed, have done so on several occasions).

Chelsfield Solar installed solar panels for us in Feb 2017. From start to finish, they were professional & thorough. Natalie in the office answered our many questions promptly & patiently. We were kept informed at all stages of the work. The installers were quick, hardworking & considerate. They provided clear information before, during & after installation. Would highly recommend.

We needed to have our 8 solar panels removed as the house was being re-roofed. Chelsfield gave us a precise description of what was involved in removing the panels and then re-installing them afterwards. This included testing to see everything was in good working order before and afterwards. They fitted in with the roofing schedule, and kept us informed of any issues involved in adapting a system that had been installed by another firm. Their employees were prompt and considerate and made sure all was clean inside and out after the job was finished. The newly cleaned panels are up and running again.

I was a bit nervous setting out on trying to install solar panels - I only knew one friend who'd done so before and he'd had a lot of problems. But I came across Chelsfield on Trusted Traders and they looked good so I got in touch. And from start to finish they've been fantastic - every step of the way inspires confidence. Thoroughly recommended!

Your recommendation means a great deal to the whole team. If you ever need support or advice in the future, we’re always here to help.
Incredible company
We recently contacted Chesterfield Solar to quote for solar panels supply and fit on an airspace development we carried out. We had not worked with them before, but had been recommended to get in touch and could not be happier that we did. Their quote was turned around with incredible speed. Their initial price came in on point (slightly lower than who we usually use) and communication regarding on site preparation was was detailed, and swift. All answers were given with utmost understanding of site specific requirements. Installation was a breeze, done and dusted within a day, even accomodating last minute layout changes, and we could not be happier with the end product. We are really happy we now have a trusted provider for solar panels, there for us, whenever we need, for whatever we need. They uphold the statement of " no job too large and no job too small". Whoever said you cant have quality, price and speed, just hasn't met Chesterfield Solar.

Chelsfield installed a 1.8kWp SolarPV system on a flat roof in June 2011 and the system has been troublefree and performance slightly above what was predicted. The staff were very professional and guided me through the entire process, and it was the one aspect of a large house renovation project that just went to plan. Highly Recommended. I chose them on the basis that they had been doing this for a while rather than a new company cashing in on the FIT gold-rush, as well as being one of closest MCS registered installers to me in SW Herts.

We are delighted with our new solar panels. The government green deal just wasn't interested in our house because our roof is in three tiers but this did not put off Chelsfield at all and they even found a solution to fixing panels on our dormer roof with its uneven surface. Their problem solving was excellent and they remained cheerful and upbeat throughout. It's a delight to deal with people who really believe in their product. Their work was also immaculately clean and tidy and they took great care to hide away wiring under floorboards etc. And by the way the scaffolders they hire also worked to the same standards. Altogether a pleasure to do business with Chelsfield.
