We had solar panels fitted two weeks ago by Eco-energy and found it to be quite a positive experience [although not without a couple of hiccups]. The Salesman/ Surveyor was very pleasant and knowledgeable but did not make a good estimate regarding the number of panels that would fit on to the part of our roof intended nor did he have a good look in our loft. To be fair to him, our loft is difficult to access and in the end the Converter and Battery were put in a downstairs cupboard. He was keen that we should sign up on the day, but accepted that we wanted time to think things over. When the fitters came to install the Panels they knew that they would not get six on to that part of the roof. This resulted in phone calls going backwards and forwards between the office, boss, fitters and ourselves. A bit of a waste of time, but a satisfactory solution was found. All the workers were very polite, wasted no time and cleaned up afterwards. Communication with the office has been fine and our system seems to be working well. More...

Not impressed. High pressure sales tactics deployed when all we wanted was a quote. We were told it was a free no obligation quote when we booked the survey. The “surveyor” didn’t look inside the loft space, at the dno meter / cut out or at our distribution board so he had no idea of if the electrical installation was suitable or if the roof could take the install. Everything was explained well, the figures all added up to what we expected, then came the high pressure sale. Is that good enough sign here … no thanks just send me the quote please … why don’t you want to sign now ? … sign now and I’ll give you a discount on the price or give you extra panels for free yada yada ….. I actually found it quite rude then when the “surveyor” started asking about our finances etc It was akin to a double glazing sales pitch expecting you to sign there and then when all we wanted was a quote which in the end turned out to be over inflated by a good few thousand pounds. I certainly won’t be buying anything from them with a sales pitch like that and over inflated price. I certainly wouldn’t recommend either. More...

1. Immediate response to online enquiry. Salesperson was friendly, helpful and able to explain the product, how it works, how it would be installed, the costs, the impact on bills. 2. Company responded very quickly once I’d decided to go ahead and were able to offer an installation date which suited me perfectly. 3. Company kept me informed all the way. 4. Initial surveyor was able to make changes to suit my preferences. 5. Installation team arrived on time and worked politely, efficiently and were careful not to damage my carpets etc. I was taken through the app details etc. 6. The company were very quick to check I’d been happy and to initiate process of next steps. At the time of writing, the panels were installed two weeks ago. More...

Now seems an appropriate time to post this as I have moved house so the threat of blackmail no longer exists. I’ll refer to the original review to which you took offence to and remotely switched off my system (that would be their lovely CEO) Things didn’t get off to a good start regarding install dates however this was finally sorted out. Guys doing the actual install were very good but as far as customer service goes its an absolute joke. Fitted a solar hot water immersion heater that never worked. Was never setup according to the instructions right in front of the guys face ( who also smelt quite strongly of weed) and after nearly 6 months I have finally got my money back after being completely ignored. Before they had even reached the bottom of my stairs the phone rang asking for payment for the install. The second they had my money they were no longer interested in the issues i was facing. Had planned to further improve my system with battery storage but no chance I would ever use this company again after the way I have been ignored. The number of dissolved companies on your books speaks volumes. A quick google of Matthew’s name brings up rather a lot of unhappy customers. Only wish I had done my homework. Just use a different company and save yourself a lot of unnecessary hassle. Anyway after removing the review due to him locking my system I had control again so contacted the manufacturer to ensure he could no longer access this. Ended up with 2 ex police detectives now working for trading standards at my house for over an hour for an interview regarding his behaviour. (Turns out I’m not the only one he has done this to!) So really just a word of warning more than anything. Wouldn’t dare write this review if I hadn’t moved out of the house. Who really knows what he’s capable of More...

Had solar panels installed recently and was a easy/quick experience. They first send out a surveyor to check where you want the panels, holes drilled and cables put, a few days later the workmen came out and only took them a day then another day passes and the electrician just clicks it all together, connects it to the wifi and whola done! The workers were polite, clean, tidy and efficient. Any questions asked were answered and had a great experience. Would recommend ECO Energy to anyone! More...

AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS!!! WE obtained 3 quotes but were duped by the salesman who exaggerated the savings we would wee on our bill. I have tried to contact them but once they have your money they are totally uninterested in talking to you ever again. Having spoke to some friends I now understand exactly how much I overpaid. It was somewhere in the region of 6k. AVOID THIS COMPANY. More...

From start to finish, the whole process was efficient, positive and pain free! Jason, the Salesman was very knowledgeable and immediately we trusted him. The 10 Solar Panels, plus Inverter and Bird Proofing were fitted today by Connor the Electrical expert, who did everything indoors and 2 very polite young Roofers who carried out the outside work efficiently and with no mess. We are delighted with the finished product and are looking forward to using our App to monitor how it all works. Connor was extremely helpful and explained the App well. I will have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Eco Energy to anyone who asks. Thank you. More...

From sales call to completion this has been a stress free installation. We needed a scaffold over a glass roofed canopy and this was completed on the Monday by 2 men. The Solar Panels installed by 2 men on the Tuesday. Very happy with the black look of the panels and the finished product. Wednesday the scaffolding was removed and the electrical installation was completed. I had previously prepared a floored area in my loft but the electrician had to build a frame for the inverter. As a retired Senior Project Manager I can honestly say that all of the operatives were polite and professional in their work and the completed installation is entirely to my satisfaction. I would definitely recommend ECO Energy. More...

Eco Energy installed 10 solar panels on our roof yesterday and the system is working as expected, given light levels in early February Edinburgh, the culmination of a process which from the visit of the salesman to installation took 10 days. We are entirely satisfied with all aspects and stages of the process. The information we received and time taken by the salesman to answer all our questions was much appreciated. We felt under no pressure and we were grateful for the clarity in which technical matters were explained to the technically ignorant (us). On the day of the installation the electrician, Darren, and his mate Sean arrived as planned and proceeded to install the inverter, and batteries and run the wiring to the roof panels quickly and efficiently. We were impressed with their technical skills and problem-solving abilities in what wasn't the easiest installation, due to limits of space, and they did a fantastic job. Finally, the App was ably demonstrated The roofers arrived later on the same day, having been delayed due to a vehicle breakdown which was resolved quickly and we were kept fully informed throughout by the Glasgow office who resolved the problem. The panels were installed quickly and we were later shown photos of the methods used to secure the panels to the roof, and to deter nesting birds, and time was taken by the gentleman concerned to fully explain their work. Again, very reassuring. All in all we can't speak too highly of the efficiency, competence and professionalism of all concerned and we are satisfied that should any technical issues occur in the future they will be dealt with in a similar manner.

Great, well done every body, from sales to installation and customer service. I´m verry happy. First day, Two men arrived on time, after we discussed the best layout for the panels they were at it. Two hours later they were done, only evidence of their visit, panels on roof. Great. Two days later, two men arrived to connect the panels, aoligised for being a little late, which after seeing what they did to make the installation invisible I fully understood. They experienced a few problems but worked over to avoid a second visit. Again only evidence of the visit a box on my fuse board. Super More...

If I could give a 0 star I would, first off they do not make it clear that unless you are a home owner you cannot apply. So as a tenant I did not realise this and got to end of the survey they wanted me and my landlord to commit fraud and change his bank details into my address so this could be fitted. I’ve had none stop harassment over the space of 3 months as I refused to do what they asked, I have asked multiple of times for my details to be removed off their system but they are not taking no for an answer. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Unless you want to be harassed by them if it fails to go through as they won’t get their pay out, I’ve blocked so many numbers by them but still get called from a different one each time. It’s beginning to stress me out with it as I have to say the same thing over and over. More...

PV system installed by these guys. Wiring was a mess ( although they did eventually fix this ) The cut through a cable supplying sockets in the living room and could not diagnose the problem ( had to get another electrician in to fix ) Piggy backed the system onto the electric oven fuse on the fuse box. Installed the system on a fuse box that was non compliant and mentioned nothing to me about this, just installed the system anyway ( i would have paid them for the new consumer unit if they had advised ) I installed a fogstar battery to the system and as it turns out the inverter was faulty ( was unable to charge battery ) These guys refused to assist as they said I installed a non compliant batter to the system ( the battery is fully compliant and compatible as I checked with the manufacturer of the inverter ) Ended up having to go direct to the manufacturer about the inverter who agreed it was a fault and they sent out another one. Truly a disgusting company to deal with. More...

A trustworthy company. They were recommended to me by a family member who had used them for a solar installation and have used them twice. A slight glitch early on when the available area of my roof was assessed at 8 panels - the installation team could only fit on 6. The work was carried out in an afternoon and made no mess. The engineers set up the 'Shinephone' app on an Android phone and registered my account. I was patiently shown how to set the charging times for the battery. I am very pleased with the system they installed. My electricity bill in June 23 was £3! Some months later, I had the same engineers return to install a second battery - I now have around 13 kWh of storage, which is more than sufficient for the whole day (a semi, Scotland, midwinter). On 'Octopus Go' the daily cost for all electricity I use is around £1 even if there is no sun. It costs about another £1 to charge a hybrid car overnight. Some afterthoughts: Make sure you have a good WiFi connection to the inverter/battery. You can use a plug-in extender. (If you don't have a good connection you will get breaks in the graphs on the app, and won't be able to set charging times.) The Shinephone app seems to allow up to six battery charging sessions overnight. If you were braver than me and had the time to set up these sessions each evening, you could use the 'Intelligent Octopus' tariff where the price changes every half hour - sometimes going negative.) You can safely trust this company. More...
