Solar Power system fitted by Solar Gateway

Solar Gateway was recommended by a friend. A survey and discussion of the Solar power system and siting the roof panels , inverter and batteries was done initially and a second visit was made at our request as we had issues with the likely route of the wiring (we have an extension so the loft is not uniform across the length of the house). We were then provided with the calculations of anticipated output of solar energy based on our roof’s orientation to the sun , and based on our previous electricity consumption, how long it would take to recoup our investment in the system. This was all before we committed to the work or paid a deposit. On the day the electrician and roofer worked efficiently to complete the main fit on the day. It was a difficult fit due to the pitch of our roof and the type of tiles. Also the panels were fitted to our detached garage and house roofs making it a more complex fit. All issues were dealt with effectively. The system was up and running by the end of the day. Everything was done to the originally agreed price which was very competitive. The work has been done to a very high standard. We were advised on how to make the most of generated power and battery use. The Project Manager, Mark rang the next day, as he had been monitoring the system’s function, to ensure we were happy with everything. We highly recommend this company.

A very helpful company Solar Gateway came highly recommended and they did not disappoint. Mark carried out a survey at my house and recommended a system with batteries. I had little knowledge of how solar works and everything was explained to me clearly giving me the confidence to proceed. The installation was carried out quickly and efficiently. They were very tidy and removed all rubbish. I have an app on my phone which shows the system working. It shows me how much electricity the panels are producing and when the batteries are charged. When energy is being exported to the grid, I know then to use my larger electrical items like the washing machine. This system is saving me money and I am also more aware about managing my electric use. Thank you Solar Gateway.

I found this company through a google search and was pleased to see that they were a Which? Trusted Trader. Mark called out to see me soon after my initial enquiry. I was very impressed with his knowledge, honesty and price. He explained everything very clearly, and happily answered further questions later. The system was fitted by his team of three including himself. They were very professional and tidy. It was installed and working within a few hours. The app that's linked to the inverter is great, and perfect to show friends how the system is working. His aftercare is great too. I bought a system with eighteen panels and a four point eight kw battery. It's possible to run several things in the house, during a power cut, from the battery, which is fantastic. I generally opt for the boiler, router, light and tv. I have recommended Mark to many friends. They have all been impressed with his technical knowledge and fair price. He's not in the business to sell you something if it's not going to be of any benefit, unlike many of the rogues out there. I'm happy to recommend Mark to everyone wanting a good, efficient system, installed well and at a fair price.

15 solar panels across two roofs with battery and solar boost (water heating). I contacted a number of traders. One gave a quote for the wrong roof using Google maps. Another did not visit. Another was difficult to contact. Mark of Solar Gateway visited twice was easily contactable by phone answering all my questions. Work completed in one day. A mistake was made and rectified within a couple of days. I am very pleased with the performance of the system. It is as predicted.

We were advised about the system and size suitable for our house. The quote was clear and questions answered. The work done at each stage was efficient and tidy with good explanations of what was being done. I would be happy to recommend this company to anyway looking to install a solar panel system.

I had solar panels installed with batteries and a water heater for the excess electricity produced. The whole system has worked brilliantly. The installation was quick and with no mess. Everyone involved was very professional and explained everything that was being done at each stage. They even fixed an existing fault in the fusebox which surfaced after the installation but which was in no way caused by it, and didn't charge me for the extra work even though it involved a separate visit a couple of months later. I'm really happy I chose Solar Gateway for the work and would highly recommend them. I would definitely go straight to them for any further work I might do in the future. I have also had the benefit of the summer months to know that we were really happy with the job.

Hi Chris, Thank you for the review. We were happy to get your inverter replaced as quickly as we did so you don't miss out on the benefits the sunshine brings.

My installation was done within 4 hrs of the men starting. Everyone abided by health and safety regulations and the team went about their business in a professional and competent manner. There was no damage caused by the installation and the men left the house tidy and cleared away all debris. First class service.
