Excellent service - very neat install
Steve and his team did a fantastic job installing our solar panels and battery system. From start to finish, everything was handled professionally and with great attention to detail. The work was carried out neatly and tidily, with no mess left behind, and the installation looks excellent. Communication throughout was clear and friendly, and they took the time to explain how everything works. I couldn’t be happier with the service – highly recommend Steve and his team for anyone considering solar and battery installation!

Knowledgeable, Honest, and Efficient Solar Install
I recently had solar panels installed by Steve and the team at Sun Smart UK Ltd, and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The installation process was smooth and professionally handled from start to finish. Steve offered a great price and took the time to explain everything clearly. Although there were no government grants available at the time, Steve was knowledgeable about alternatives and was able to point me towards an interest-free home improvement loan service offered by my local council, which made the project much more affordable. Highly recommend Steve and the Sun Smart UK Ltd team for anyone considering solar!

Excellent service and use of non Chinese solar panels a bonus.
Steve Cant has been attentive and responsive throughout and has guided us through the whole process of going solar. Very ready to talk about the alternatives and advantages. Work carried out well and on time/price and working as expected. Big advantage is that he will specify European-made panels, which in any case have a higher output, although some Chinese kit can not be avoided. An ideal contractor for us, highly recommended.

Battery installation. Good job well done !
I had battery installation to increase capacity. Care was taken to ensure that the new batteries matched the existing batteries. Steve’s team moved the batteries I already had from my loft to a safer place in my utility room. In addition they installed a further set of batteries to increase capacity. The guys undertaking the work were very professional, their work was clean and tidy, with thoughtfulness about running cables etc. All work was undertaken at the agreed time and the cost was extremely competitive. The batteries are up and running and Steve has been in touch on two occasions to check that I am happy with the work and outcome. Excellent service which I highly recommend.

Great service
We bought this house in 2016 and it's been a disaster. We've spent an awful lot of money repairing it. We had 12 solar panels fitted by a different trader each with their own microinverter and one of them went out. The trader came around to remediate the issue and told us the inverter was out. It appeared that the inverters were supplied free under the guarantee. When the trader said he could fit them for us, he wanted a lot of money to reinstall the inverter and he wasn't confident on fixing the issue. I started to try and find someone who might try and fit them for us. Most of the traders I reached out to were only interested in fitting them, not repairing them. I reached out to Sun Smart and they came really quickly. He explained it wasn't really his field but explained he'd come out to have a look. He gave me a full lesson on solar panels which was really helpful. The original trader declined the fitting but would supply the inverters. Steve from Sun Smart offered to come over and fit the new inverters. He billed quarter of the charge of the original installers. Steve is the owner and I take my hat off to the guy. I've not had the same level of service from other traders.

High quality work. Very satisfactory
A domestic job to bring house wiring up to modern standard from the obsolete bakelite-style fuse board, dangerous socket wiring and inadequate numbers of sockets, lights and garage wiring. Also pre-work to make the property ready in advance for solar panels, inverter and battery (requiring their own space in a modern breaker panel). I was very pleased with the quality of the work, and I was also very impressed by the communication. I was kept up to date with each step with extensive photographs. An EICR was also part of the work. In the planning of the work, I was advised with several suggestions that would make work better and more logical. The placement of the sockets was not exactly right when initially completed (perhaps I was not explicit enough) and the team listened, and adjusted the positions so that everything was precisely as desired. This step was particularly impressive; I have employed trades in the past where the communication was not good enough. Getting the right paperwork completed is also valuable. It's great to get domestic work done where the team really want to get it all exactly right and I would recommend this team, and employ them again, without hesitation. I should add that the team were extremely tidy and even went to speak to the neighbours to prepare them for the imminent loud noise (drilling etc). Not the cheapest option, but a great example of how it is worth paying the proper price to get proper work.

E.V Charger Installation
Steve was very helpful from the start of the process to the end. Of the several quotes I obtained, the sun-smart one was the best and most comprehensive. Installation was carried out efficiently with the electrician making sure everything was working correctly before he left including the app. They made sure everything was left tidy as well. We had a follow-up call from Steve a couple of days after the Installation to make sure we were happy with the work carried out and the Installation. We would recommend to anyone looking for a professional car charger install.

EV Charger installation - Nice to deal with people not algorithms
Efficient from first enquiry to day after installation (and hopefully in the future - if needed). Well supervised engineers who answered my many questions! Job finished in good time and thorough instructions for use. Very tidy workers who cared about the customer experience. Energy supplier may offer their own (sub-contract!) installation but customer service may get 'lost in translation'. Price agreed from the start and maintained. After sale advice about car charging and energy suppliers given by M.D. Steve, including helping me to get a £50 credit from new energy supplier.

EV charger
From first contact with Steve everything was done with politeness and efficiency. I was kept up to date and the fitting of the EV charger was done to fit in with my requirements. On the day I was given a time that was kept to and the workmen were polite and worked tidily. The whole job was completed in under 3 hours.

Installation of 3 electric car charging points
The work involved digging a trench and installation of the pedestal charging points and connecting to the main electric board inside the building. The work was done efficiently, and the area was made good after completion and I cannot but praise the manner in which all the tasks were done and completed.We are a block of flats in a complex and none of the other flat owners were inconvenienced at any time I do recommend the company to anyone wishing to use their services.

Solar panels and inverter installation 4kw. Work was carried out extremely professionally and within the time frame advised by Sun Smart UK Limited. We had a problem neighbour and Steve managed their expectations well to get the job done without any issues. We are very much enjoying watching the meter stop, go backwards and say no charge to our energy supply. Thank you.

Sun Smart UK Ltd replaced our power inverter with a far more efficient model and connected a new battery to the system. They were punctual, fast, very efficient, clean and tidy in their work. Most importantly the equipment provided has increased our energy efficiency significantly and I would not hesitate to recommend Steve and his team.

We had a Zappi EV charger fitted. From initial quotation through to the completion of the installation we had good communication and information. The work carried out was very tidy and all appropriate documentation was provided including Building Control paperwork essential if you go on to sell your house to a new owner. As soon as installation was completed we were guided through the apps to use to control the EV charger remotely. Subsequent usage has been straightforward and there have been no issues. We would recommend Steve and the team to other potential clients.
