Solarkinetics Ltd

From the first phone call to Solarkinetics to completion of their fitting my solar panels this small family firm showed utter professionalism and knowledge of their business. This company know what they are doing. They offered information on the choice of equipment I could use, where it came from and quality, making the final decision on equipment simple. Having had a comprehensive and professional survey undertaken and a comprehensive quote, the company were very flexible on fitting dates, arriving and ending within the expected time zone. The cost was as the quote. The business use only a small team of people. From the owners to the scaffolders, to the fitters and electrician, one can only say how very polite, friendly and professional everyone was. The scaffolding company were thorough, quick and good-humoured with the scaffolding only erected a couple of days before the job started and came down, within 48 hours of completion. The solar panel fitters were professional, thorough in their execution of the job and thoughtful. Similarly, the electrician worked quietly and efficiently and was very good at explaining how the various equipment worked. The follow up contact has been equally friendly and helpful, answering my questions with politeness and consideration. I can honestly say that this was the smoothest and easiest work I have ever had completed on any property I have owned and have already recommended the company to friends.

We asked around the local community for a recommended solar installer and were directed to Solarkinetics, who had other satisfied customers locally. Our first contact resulted in a prompt home visit, during which we received outstanding advice and help in choosing the best system for our needs. We had initially suggested a battery system with our solar panels installation but, after clear and non-technical details about the financial and performance pros and cons, it was suggested that a better solution in our case wold be a 'diverter' which would return unused surplus generation to our tank-based hot water system. The installation, which included high-quality components and superb technology, was completed quickly, cleanly, and efficiently about two weeks later by a friendly team and the system has worked a treat from the word go. We are able to monitor the system's performance via an outstanding app. All in all, this is a highly recommended installer.

I used Solarkinetics to install PV and batteries on a house I was building in 2015. They were superb and worked with me to achieve the system that I wanted. A house I recently purchased had planning permission for additional PV and Solarkinetics were my first choice. Again, they worked with me to develop the second PV installation with battery backup and gave me options. When National Grid had concerns they found a way to address them. The installation went well - a few hiccups due to the complication of my requirements (I needed to accommodate EV charging, an air source system and all of it had to work with existing MyEnergi equipment) but Solarkinetics were very prompt in working with me to sort out these bumps in the road. I would recommend Solarkinetics to anyone adding PV to their home.

Following a few months of research to try to understand solar PV, SolarKinetics were chosen to install our very first domestic solar PV system. We wanted a supplier that was an established and experienced installer and being reasonably local was perfect. They provided a first quote/plan based on exploratory discussions and then promptly responded to provide updates as the plan crystallised. The field visit proved to be really helpful to better understand our needs, confirm our plan and led to the addition of installing a smart hot water diverter. From quote to completion, the SolarKinetics team were courteous, helpful, and the installation was completed to agreed schedule and expected standard. We have complete confidence that we can call upon SolarKinetics for additional information and help and indeed if we have a new project.

We have had a good experience in using Solarkinetics Ltd from the first point of contact, through a survey visit and then onto the quotation and the installation of our solar panels. Each member of the Team was clearly knowledgeable, was careful of our property and was thoughtful in undertaking the work. I was interested in having a battery also, but the person undertaking the survey and preparing the quote suggested that I bide my time and use my EVs as storage in the first place. This is working out well; I was grateful for the cost-saving advice.

From the outset, Solar Kinetics proved themselves to be a most professional and efficient service. Our initial telephone conversations with Jaine encouraged us to arrange a site meeting with Gordon who directed us through the appropriate choice of extra solar panels and storage battery suitable for our new build house. The construction team worked cheerfully and efficiently and we are delighted with the finished product. Not forgetting the back up administrative efficiency of Carol, Solar Kinetics are well deserving of their excellent reviews.

We contacted Solarkinetics Ltd after another supplier for our project went into administration. It was a very stressful time for us, and from start to finish our experience with this organisation was excellent. My initial call was picked up by Jaine who listened to our requirements, immediately put my mind at ease and booked a site visit in for the following week. Gordon carried out the site visit. He assessed our current installation, offered options for a solar battery, hybrid inverter and meter. (We already had solar panels and part of our project requirement was to replace our old inverter and meter and relocate it from the centre of our home to an outbuilding, which didn't present a problem to them.) A competitive quotation arrived a few days later. Upon giving the go ahead, we were given a project start date. We also received reminder e-mails for our installation which was great. The electricians and installation Team, headed up by Fin were a pleasure to have on site. They were polite, professional, tidy in their work, extremely competent and efficient with our installation. Carol liaised with us on the administration and accounts side of the project and once again all communications were timely and efficient. Their standard of workmanship was second to none and we have no hesitation in recommending them. It was such a refreshing experience from start to finish in this modern world. Thank you Team Solarkinetics Ltd

I have had a 3kw solar system on my home for 13 years and sadly have experienced failures of the SMA inverter on many occasions. Each time I have to get a specialist to install the replacement inverter which I get under warranty from SMA. The original installer will no longer support me in replacing the inverter so I had to find another company to help. I made contact with Solarkinetics when I had the latest failure. I have never used their services before but without hesitation they willing offered to help.The service I got has been first class considering the effort they had to put in to getting the replacement ,and putting up with me chasing them every day to get the inverter from SMA and installed for what can only be described as a very low value job. I only wish I had known about this company before and I would have had the original installation from them in the beginning. I can't sing their praises enough, a great company and first class support. They come to my home installed the inverter, gave me some very helpful advise on my system and left everything in tip top condition. Thank you for a great service Solarkinetics.

Having long wanted to get solar panels I was struggling to get a sensible quote, then I found Solarkinetics and everything felt right. Rather than push a fixed solution Gordon and the team listened and engaged, developing a proposal that we all felt comfortable with. The quote was surprisingly reasonable and we gave the go ahead straight away. The installation was equally professional and the whole team worked as one. The end result is great and I'm looking forward to the summer! I don't normally do reviews but I wanted to leave this one as they were so good. Thank you!

Gordon, Jaine, Carol and the whole team at Solar Kinetics were responsive and pro-active in responding to my enquiry and subsequent order for a 3.7kw solar PV installation, and acted professionally throughout, with excellent and clear communication. I am a business owner myself, so I know how hard this is to achieve. I am geniuinely greatful to have found a company and people who live up to my expectations - it seems a rare quality in these times. I will definitely use SolarKinetics again for future projects!
