SolarGain Ltd

Al of the team at Solargain did a fantastic job with our battery and panels. Some great suggestions were made by Kyle who even saved us money before fitting. The job was fitted ahead of schedule and the guys fitting everything were fast clean and polite. The office responded quickly to queries. More...

We obtained four quotes for our solar installation. SolarGain were not the cheapest (though close) but we were immediately confident that they were knowledgeable, giving good advice and genuinely keen to provide a system suited to our needs. We were right. Every detail was checked and an installation date agreed very quickly. Phil personally supervised the whole job which, with electrician Colin, was completed and running perfectly in two days. All necessary approvals, certificates, etc were obtained by Vanessa and we couldn't be more pleased with a neat and thoroughly professional installation. More...

Outstanding company from the initial phone to the competition of works.Detailed breakdown of what we were getting to how long before we have the cost of installation back and start to make a return on the investment. Phil was always prepared to meet on site to discuss any concerns.Excellent customer, service so pleased with the work and quality of the panels.Thoroughly recommend this company for solar installations.

Phil and team were absolutely fantastic. We had 36-panels installed on our cafe roof in Bishops Lydeard (a difficult old roof at that! ) and the team worked tirelessly through wet and wind to get the panels installed in time before cafe opened again for customers. From start to finish, they were brilliant, professional and provided solid advice along the way. Really clear communication throughout. If you are looking for solar in Taunton/Somerset, this is your team! Thank you Phil!! More...

We have had the benefit of solar panels [and a battery] from Solargain since May - and this lovely summer has certainly been a great time to start our solar 'life'. Our electricity costs from the grid has been maybe a couple of £ all summer - and we have dropped electricity INTO the grid every day since installation. We know things will change going into the colder, greyer days - but we already have a healthy amount from our monthly direct debit 'saved' into our fuel account, so hope to come out of this winter not in arrears [for once] to our provider. Solargain continues to keep in touch and offer advice, so it's a win-win! More...

I have no hesitation in recommending SolarGain Ltd. After deciding to install a solar PV system, I approached a number of companies and found that SolarGain provided the best design and support service and also highly competitive pricing. I therefore asked them to undertake the work, which was extensive, including the installation of 24 solar panels, a 5 kW inverter and two 9.5 kWh batteries. I also combined this work with re-roofing the house and SolarGain worked seamlessly with the roofing contractor to ensure a smooth operation. It was a particularly satisfying experience working with Phil Collins their operations director, who provided excellent technical support and then management of the installation and commissioning processes. The installation has now been working for several weeks and is proving to be a great success by powering our home and also providing income from the export of excess electricity. More...

We chose a local family firm, SolarGain, run by Phil and Vanessa, to provide our solar panels. The site meeting was relaxed and advice on the technicalities was given without any pressure. A very neat solution of a 9 panel display in landscape format, maximising our south facing garage roof was the agreed arrangement. The quote was prompt and lower than the other local firm, whom I had to chase for the quote, and a national company who gave a quote without a site visit. These companies recommended a mixed array of landscape and portrait panels, which looked untidy. The installation began on time and on the agreed date. The 2 roofers’ initial work on the roof fittings appeared to be progressing well. It was not until the end of the day when the panels were fitted that it became apparent that the whole array was not central on the roof and was too close to one edge to be MCS compliant. The roofers had made a mistake! Phil arrived, assessed the situation and resolved to rectify it. First thing the next day and working on his own, he removed the panels, all the fittings and made good the roof. He then replaced everything in its correct place and reassembled the array, nicely central on the roof and MCS compliant. It took him 12 hours, with hardly a break, remaining calm and cheerful throughout. I have given a 5 star rating to Solar Gain as, even though a mistake was made, their immediate acceptance of responsibility, extremely positive helpful response, and genuine concern was exceptional. How things are dealt with when they go wrong is what really counts! Kevin and Yvonne Ley More...

After having PV panels, inverter and battery installed a year ago by Solar Gain we decided that we needed an additional battery to make full use of the very cheap electricity available from Octopus in the early hours of the morning. The best solution seemed to be the Gen3 5.12 unit. After checking it was compatible with the earlier Gen2 hardware we placed the order via Vanessa. Everything went smoothly and Colin arrived as planned. The installation and commissioning went exactly as planned and it’s great to benefit from the cheap battery energy and in the Summer we’ll be able to export at a high rate as well. Vanessa has been efficient with the follow up paperwork and certification. A great experience all round. More...

While researching Solar panels a friend recommended Solar Gain UK, so I thought one more quote can do no harm.. As it turned out they were the most professional and thorough of any of the companies I talked to. While not the cheapest they gave a much greater feeling of comfort so they got the business. The install went exactly as described and took the two days allocated. However the battery supplied developed a problem shortly after install. After some investigation Solar Gain decided a replacement was required. This arrived promptly and the problems disappeared overnight. The system designed charges from sunrise through to sunset and is saving us a lot of money even on dull winter days. Cannot recommend more highly More...

Last year I made plans to scaffold, re-roof, repaint and install a solar system on my home. Dealing with the average solar company was frustrating as the typical sales staff had limited technical knowledge and were intent on pushing off-the-shelf packages. It was a great relief to find SolarGain who were keen to design and advise on an installation specifically for my situation. When it came to the installation, liaising with SolarGain was simple and straightforward and the coordination between them and the other contractors was seamless. The work went ahead in March of this year and the quality of the work carried out by SolarGain was top class. The company closely supervised their work and established a great working relationship with the other contractors on site. I have 24 panels divided between the east and west elevations of my house, together with a 5 kW inverter and two 9.5 kWh batteries. Since completion in March, the performance has been faultless and has exceeded my expectations. I have kept in touch with Phil, Vanessa, and other members of staff at SolarGain and I am confident that should I need it, after sales service and maintenance are readily available. More...

Once I'd decided to install solar panels, I set out to get 3 quotes. 2 were from national companies, who quoted everything from photos of my property, and promised the earth in terms of what I could expect. Phil was different. He came to the property and took time to find out what I wanted and what would work. He patiently explained all that was involved, and gave a much more realistic (to my mind) expectation of what the system could generate. So, 16 panels, a 5kW invertor, a 5kW battery and a 7kW EV charging point were duly installed in a surprisingly quick and efficient manner. The system works well and already, almost 1 month later, and even in Autumn going in to Winter, I'm saving money. I have no hesitation in recommending Solar Gain to anybody. More...

So now 15 months on I can report that not only is the system operating seamlessly but the savings are out of this world.

I know that Phil and company are always there in the background for an upgrade/add on/support which I’m seriously tempted with as such a successful attentive company is set for the duration. That’s very comforting in the tough solar works out there. More...
