We were provided with a quotation, which was adhered to. A couple of visits by Chris prior to signing contract to check measurements, Sun direction on the roof etc. A full assessment of benefits given for solar production over a 12m period giving an estimated payback period. Gave us two options for roof positions for the panels. Went ahead with panels, battery and inverter. Installed in one day within a couple weeks of signing contract. Very neat and tidy installation with no snags. Explanation given as to the Givenergy App etc. we received the necessary paperwork at the end of the day to enable us to approach our electricity provider to switch to a smart tariff. Full pack hand over pack received following day. Chris is very friendly and approachable, has is his workforce. All debris removed leaving the house, garden as they found it.

Chris' team fitted an EV charger. We asked for some advice as we weren't sure what to order as it was our first electric vehicle and he gave a great recommendation and was clear on price and timeframe. The team were super polite and really quick and professional and we would definitely recommend them.

My solar panels with Tesla battery had stopped generating and storing power. My original solar installer no longer deals with domestic customers so I contacted Chris Barker from Connect electric who came round the same afternoon. He spoke to Solar Edge and a software update had the solar panels generating the same day. Connect electric are not registered with Tesla but Chris still contacted them and found that the Powerwall battery had failed under warranty. I then asked Chris to fit a new larger battery while waiting for Tesla to recycle their failed unit. The new battery was fitted and commissioned without any issues. The entire process from first contact to final commissioning took place within three weeks. The pricing was extremely competitive and their was no deviation from the original quoted price. This is an exceptional company, professional, fast, extremely responsive with courtesy shown by all members of the team. I have no hesitation in recommending Connect electric and will use them in future for any solar or other issues which may occur in my home.

Delighted with our Solar PV and Battery System

We had a solar PV and battery installed by Connect Electric who are excellent. Chris Barker visited and produced a detailed proposal which met our requirements and was good value. Chris was always contactable, friendly, and very helpful throughout the whole process. Installation was totally trouble free with scaffolding put up and all installation work completed in one day. This is a very experienced team who know what they are doing and get on with the job. All were friendly, helpful and did a good tidy up on completion. Chris then commissioned the system and explained the apps that are used to manage and monitor it. Everything was done to the agreed schedule and budget. We are delighted with our new solar battery system and were lucky enough that our first two days in November were sunny and we powered the house on solar.

Connect Electric quoted promptly and competitively for an appropriate Solar PV and storage solution. Installation was neat and all the details of notification, certification, building control and setting up the cloud account were attended to. Would not hesitate to recommend for any electrical work.

Chris and his team completed the installation of 11 PV panels on our roof, plus battery and all connections to our domestic circuits and the grid in just two days even though they were two very wet days. He explained everything thoroughly and the team were very respectful of our property. We were also impressed with the scaffolder that Chris uses. Chris completed all the paperwork for the local Building Control and Electricity Northwest, and for us it was a very straightforward process with no nasty surprises or costly extras. Now the work is finished Its great to put the kettle on and see no cost register on the smart meter. With a payback period of 5 to 8 years we feel that this is a well worthwhile investment.
