What Our Customers Say

Hear from homeowners and businesses who have trusted start solar to power their properties with clean, reliable solar solutions.

I had a great experience with start solar and would highly recommend them. From the initial enquiry through to installation, the whole process was very smooth and quick. The team are professional and efficient. Installation was completed in just a couple of hours with no fuss, and everything was left clean and tidy. The system itself is very easy to use and manage, with clear instructions and support if needed. I’m delighted with the results and already seeing the benefits. An excellent service all round.

Damien Hillen

From start to finish I found Zaffy and his team extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

I had so many questions. I’ve learned loads throughout the process and always felt no question was too silly to not be answered. On the installation day everything went so well. The crew were efficient and friendly. I felt I received a very personal service and would highly recommend the team. For anyone still unsure how to proceed with Solar, you will be guided through the process at a pace that you can work with to achieve the best result for your home and your pocket.

Emer O Donnell

start solar were excellent at guiding us through all the options we had when it came to adding solar and a battery to our house. From the initial phone chat with Suzie, to our assessment with Andrew, we were confident we had picked the right business to work with.

I was particularly keen to ensure that the installation was neat and fitted in well with the existing design of the house, which is where Damien and the install team did such an excellent job. I’ve been so happy the whole process – we have not imported any electricity from the grid since the install one month ago (in fact we are now exporting!).

Would highly recommend.

David Procter

Great company to deal with, very neat and clean install, installation lads very friendly and professional. Zaffy sales rep explained everything was great to deal with, have pv system up and running now 2 weeks and its have exceeded my expectations, I should have done it years ago. Thanks guys

Nigel Moran

I had 16 Solar panels totally 7.12Kw (10 on front roof, 6 on back) installed on 30 Jul along with 2x 5Kw batteries.
I was very surprised that only 2 guys turned up as I was expecting a huge crew considering the work.
The two guys were tidy, polite & had the install finished & handed over by lunch time. Can’t fault them.

The initial consultation with Andrew was also quick & painless & he messaged the evening of the install to check I was happy with how the guys had worked & behaved while at my house.

The install was delayed due to the bank taking FOREVER to get the loan sorted but once the money had arrived in my account the install was complete within 2 weeks.

System is generating away, charging my EV, running the house & exporting a little which is impressive since it’s been cloudy & wet since the install.

Would definitely recommend start solar to friends looking Solar in Northern Ireland.

David Cheyne

Absolutely delighted with my solar panels, Suzie came out to the house and gave us a great breakdown of how the systems worked, we opted for 16 panels, battery and inverter, already seeing the savings.

The guys on the install were very professional polite and very tidy, after the install they sat with me and went through the app in detail and how it all works..

Highly recommend start solar if you are considering getting a solar install..

Graeme

From the very start I spoke to a sales man called Zaffy and he talked me through the whole process of solar panels and gave me all the advice I needed he was genuine and very obliging as i wasn’t the easiest to deal with, the day of installation all the lads were really nice and professional and done a excellent tidy job, they made sure before they left i was set up using the app and explained everything,im delighted I chose start solar for my solar panels and would strongly advise anyone looking for solar installation to give these lads a shout

Dean Lacey

Decided to investigate solar power . Looked at a few providers but settled on Start Solar. They set very clear expectations on what to expect from solar energy and were very competitive if not the best quote. Great communication throughout the process and installation was within 2 weeks of order. I’m not underestimating the work involved on the installation day but it felt simple and hassle free. No mess no upheaval no fuss.

The installation team were friendly and knowledgeable and took the time to explain how it would work they also set up the app for both the main system and EV charger and explained how to use it. I’m a few days in to the system and I have no doubt that Solar is the way to go.

Thanks to Andy and the team. Great experience and product.

Uel McCrea

We have had our solar panels for about 3 months now. Our experience with each person connected with start solar was positive. Everyone was friendly and very professional at all times. They have made the whole process straightforward and we are enjoying the benefits of the panels. Highly recommended.

Celene Kirrane

Recently installed 22 panels with start solar on a ground mount with an 8kW battery and a zappi car charger. Although we got of to a bad start, some delays initially, due to storms, materials, poor communication back and forth I eventually got through to Ben who quickly sorted the issues and I couldn’t be happier with the system. Deposit paid in December and system installed in March. Because off all the issues I had with the company I got a very healthy discount and a 200 euro donation to a charity of my choosing in Mayo. Guys came and done the work all in one day. All the lads on the ground were sound to deal with, very helpful and I would recommend them to anyone. I’ve been generating high levels and selling back to the grid since March.

Damian Farrell

We’d been thinking of getting solar panels installed for a number of years, but just hadn’t gotten around to doing anything about it…..until now!

The team at start solar installed 17 panels, battery storage, and EV charger and water heater a few weeks ago, and we’re addicted to watching the APP showing the energy being harvested from the sun and locked into the battery for use during the day. Our electric bills are high, working from home, electricity is in constant demand. Since the installation, we’ve used practically no electricity, and we anticipate a payback from the system within 4 to 5 years.

The inverter and battery were installed in the roof space, leaving the wall space in the garage free. The water heater was installed in the Hot Press, and heats the domestic hot water supply when the battery is charged (but you can divert the energy directly to the water heater at will if needed rather than it going directly to the battery). The APPs that track the electricity generation are easy to use, and the system takes care of itself with no intervention needed once set up.

We’d highly recommend the Team at start solar for your solar journey. Suzie and the Team are based locally (in N. Ireland), and are readily contactable should you need any guidance.

Pauline Ervine

Brilliant service from start to finish. The whole solar panel, battery and converter were explained well. Everything was placed and fitted with minimal disruption to me. These guys know their stuff and just got on with it from the starting block to the finish line. I knew the basics about going solar but since being fitted I have learned so much more. It is definitely worth it, hassle-free and financially rewarding on your fuel bill – always a bonus.
