Solar Panel Installation

What a pity…… I liked James and his quote for solar was very reasonable. My panels were fitted early August 2023. I particularly wanted the ability to sell any surplus power to the Grid. This requires a valid MCS certificate and I am STILL waiting for this. It can only be generated by an accredited electrician.I was promised it before Christmas.
After repeated enquiries I was told I would get a visit in late January. This became early February, but when that day came, James arrived without the electrician. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY if you want prompt, honest service. When my calls are actually answered I have been fobbed off with platitudes and false promises. NOTHING is happening. It seems an accredited electrician is not actually employed . After Christmas I advised James that I needed to get certification by Mid February. I am still waiting. I feel my good humour has been totally abused. I even recommended James to a friend, yet still my requests are ignored. A relative had solar installed recently and everything, including relevant registration documents were issued on completion of the work. So far I have waited 6 months and it is appalling service…. It is FAR TOO LONG.

Solar Heating System Maintenance

My experience with James has been deeply disappointing. I posted on Bark that our Solar Thermal hot water system was not working, Renewable Home Energy responded and arranged to come within a week. James repressurised the system and did some checks and left about 1½ hours later, assuring us that the system was functioning. By that afternoon, it was clear to me that that the system was not working and I left a telephone message to that effect and that I was delaying paying the bill. James contacted me the following day in disbelief and requested evidence, which I did with 3 days of controller readings. He then unexpectedly turned up on our doorstep and demanded his money before doing any more work, saying he could see from my evidence that he needed to go on the roof and he had brought someone with him to make that possible. Even though I didn't believe my evidence showed his conclusion, I paid up and expected some action as I wanted to get the system working properly. He just vanished! I informed the office and the reply came back that James wanted readings taken over a five day period, which I duly did together some readings I had taken when the system was new for comparison. Since then total silence, my telephone calls and e-mails are no longer answered.
I am still at square 1 with no sign of willingness to help his customer with their problem. Is this his idea of customer service?

Solar Panel Cleaning

I originally was looking for a solar panel cleaner and was contacted by these people who offered me a good price to clean my panels and reinstate my thermal system. after working on my thermal system I was told that they would have to come back and clean my panels this was back in march and I have now been told that it could be the end of may before they get cleaned.so I still need my panels cleaning and because this was the least profitable of the work they are not interested.

I booked Renewable Home Energy to clean my solar panels and do a health check on the system which James completed in under 2 hours. From the initial request for a quotation the Company was most helpful, professional and polite. On completion of the job James also advised on other potential work at my request and to provide further estimates should I wish to take it forward. I would certainly use Renewable Home Energy again.

Solar Panel Installation

Unfortunately James incorrectly quoted for this job and then tried to increase his original price twice in order to pay for scaffolding which he had not accounted for. Also caused damage to my roof tiles and personal cars when panel rails blew off the roof and hit mine and my wife's cars. Also uses a separate electrician to install battery connection and they have a poor relationship causing the customer to suffer and leave an unfinished job. Very stressful experience overall.

You are quite right, i did incorrectly quote for the job and mentioned to you BEFORE i started the installation the new price was going to be £.... . You had every opportunity at that time to refuse and look elsewhere . As regarding the roof damage , I am sure everybody was aware of " Storm Eunice " which was at the time one of the UK"s " most intense Storms in decades " , What you did fail to add was that any damage caused was convered by my Insurers Chris . . Finally .. I used the same Electrician since starting the business , installing all my Inverters & Batterys. He doesnt work directly for me but sub contracts on a regular basis . Cant see how this is an issure as all my work in underwritten with guarantees ?

i had a very quick response and a quote, but responded that there must be a visit to assess the job before i would make a decision. A visit was quickly arranged and an agreement to start the job. The start was arranged within a few days, they arrived on time and work was completed. Explanation was given on work to be done and any how the job had been tackled. A pleasant encounter throughout. Everything was left clean and tidy. I am unable to ascertain whether the repair has been successful, only time will tell. I am saying this because the three previous attempts at repair were unsuccessful. More...

Solar Heating System Maintenance

James came to mine in November to service my solar panels that supply some of our hot water.

He performed a change of the glycol fluid but also reprogrammed our system.

On leaving our house I discovered he’d left me without hot water. When I contacted him to tell him this he denied it had anything to do with him. Which was fairly unbelievable. I tried my best to reprogram our system myself as he denied responsibility. Now our panels have began heating water again our hot water fails intermittently. I now have to get another company round to correct the problem caused.

An absolute pleasure dealing with you. So professional from the start. Communicated wonderfully. The price I played was more than £3,000 LESS than a leading supplier. I read the comment about someone worried about paying the deposit oh my goodness how far wrong that was, you type in some details and it comes up with the business name, actually reassured me. James travelled 8 hours to get here, and with a smile. Excellent job, truely. Would I recommend him? All day every day without a doubt, he was that good. XXXXX More...

Very suspicious. I tried to pay their deposit by bank transfer. Initially my banks wouldn't let me set them up as a payee then after trying several more times, I got the message "Payment not made. Sorry we couldn't make your payment. For your security, we have not saved your payee".
The only address they ever give is for a shop in London for registering companies.
Just something suspicious here...

From the initial contact, through to commissioning, it was a pleasure to deal with the team at Renewable Energy. The Solar Thermal system that we inherited when we moved recently needed an overhaul and James diagnosed the issues quickly, upgraded parts where necessary and left us with a fully functioning easy to operate system.

The 2 guys, James and Paul, were the fitters who attended and installed my PV system with battery backup. James did the exterior work on the roof and Paul did all the electrical work. Nice job done by both. They started the day before original start date on the afternoon and were finished before 2 o'clock the next day. 2 nice guys who did a good job and left me with a bit of vacuuming up to do. I was shown round the system and how it works and it was already starting to save me money. Everything seems to be working fine and I could see no reason to expect any problems. Nice one. More...
