Complete solar installation in several stages, employees turned up on the dates agreed, put in a tidy installation. Back office have a dedicated employee to liase and sort any issues should they arise. Full marks for that aspect. My installation all works as expected and company works to industry standard bodies MCS and HIES accredited member. Only downside I experienced due to Skylars popularity is talking with Harry in sales!

After contacting Skylar, getting initial quote and answering questions, all efficiently carried out by Harry, was offered a survey about a week later. Survey carried out by Rob, answered a number of questions on suitability and reliability issues of proposed system. Was offered a short notice installation date 5 days latter( due another customer postponement) which happy accept. Installation carried out by Luke on 4th August, but was two day process as he works on own. Not an issue as he does a first class job. Documentation and certificates have taken a while to arrive, thankfully completed by Payton. Now all complete and very happy with work carried out. Having contacted a number of solar installers, many not even bother to reply or fail to quote, even though said would. Another installer, part of local authority scheme, misquoted, failed to meet 5 promised installation dates so had cancel. Skylar are one of the few solar installers worth dealing with, easy to contact and deliver what they say they will and have no problem in recommending them.

We asked the Skylar Solar team to install our solar panels and solar battery after getting quotes from about 4 other suppliers. Whilst not the cheapest, for me they gave me the best experience initially and the fact that they are a Which Trusted Trader swayed my decision. The install once the contract was signed was quick (about a week after signing) and the install was excellent with two installers working on one of our very hot days we had in August! The system was up and running in no time. Unfortunately the battery was not - after initial investigation work, it was deemed that the Inverter was faulty. Rob the MD, quickly arranged to get it replaced on warranty and had the battery working fully within 2 days of working out the original issue. The whole team were extremely helpful and accommodating and I would very much recommend them. Thank you

They were fantastic. Did all the necessary paperwork like building regulations compliance, get the best quote for scaffolders and advised regarding the best solar panels to have. Very friendly and always answer my phone calls. If they don?t answer, they call back very quickly. We are very happy with the work done. 15 panels have been fitted and bird proofed too.

Contacted 6 companies for solar quote including project solar, who were not the best and most expensive. Also contacted Cambridge Solar and Chiltern Solar, based in Chesham so they were more local to me. They were very good along with E-On but in the end Skylar stood out! I contacted them via FB and they came in and provide a quote and followed all Covid guidelines. They were very professional right from the start. Best thing is they were the only company to mention G99 application apart from E.ON. I don't know why they all want to avoid this, but for me the whole process was smooth. Project solar quoted me GBP14,000 for 14 panels, battery and the inverter but Skylar ended up doing the job for half the price and for the hardware which I wanted. After care service is excellent as installer came back to fit in the right clamps for my roof. Then MD visited me twice and explained me Octopus and to obtain smart meter, once this was installed he even showed me how to charge and discharge battery to save money. Whenever I got a problem I am able to call their MD who is always on had to escalate the issue to the right person. They also install the APP and have access to all your solar panels, inverter and battery. Therefore will monitor in case of any issues or concerns and will try to resolve it. Honestly best decision I ever made and so glad I went with them. Well done and keep up the good work, credit to solar industry!

I had 16 solar panels and 9kw batteries installed with a hybrid converter. All work was completed quickly and efficiently and the workmen were very professional and polite. Also they blew every other quote out the water.
