I received quotations from four solar companies and after wading through endless calculations I came up with a simple solution. Divide the total price by the total kW output. The result was South Coast came out at £1152/kW, the others ranged from £1341 to £1389. Initially anxious as South Coast Solar is a relatively new company. I asked a massive amount of questions and received totally satisfactory answers so went ahead with an installation. I agreed to go ahead on 26th August. A survey was carried out on the 28th .The scaffolding was up on the 5th September and the installation done today, the 7th. Everyone I met in person from the company, Tom, Peter, George and Arthur were all excellent, polite, helpful and efficient. The job was completed in one morning. I would definitely recommend this company.

I contacted South Coast Solar on the recommendation of a neighbour, from the initial contact I found them incredibly helpful, professional and knowledgeable. I did not feel pressured in any way act all, if fact they suggested I compare quotations. This instantly put me at ease as I don't enjoy a pressured sales experience! Once I had accepted the quotation, the installation was completed in a couple of weeks, this is a well oiled process with the scaffolding going up a couple of days prior and then coming down a day or 2 after installation. I was very impressed with the 2 chaps that installed the system, they worked so hard but were polite and helpful. It has taken me a while to write the review as I wanted to ensure that the savings promised were in fact correct. I can confirm that the information provided was very accurate and I am currently only paying the standing charge for my electricity, I used to pay approximately £110 this has reduced to approximately £14 pm. Any little issues have been resolved quickly and without any hassle, you always deal with the same small team who respond quickly to queries. From my experience, I would recommend a local family run business such as South Coast Solar. Jeremy & Andrew

The folks from South Coast Solar Solutions are great, easy to deal with and professional. The install today was efficient and hassle free. The chaps who did the install were polite, professional and cleaned up after themselves. The install itself is very tidy. I went up on the roof to inspect it closely and it looks really good. The lead installer took time to explain the system in detail and make sure I was happy. I'd certainly recommend them.

South Coast Solar designed, installed and commissioned our solar and battery system. When I was initially researching the team provided a very competitive quote, with a system that matched our requirements. When it came to the install we did have an issue with scaffolding, however I mention this only because I think it's important to say the team went above and beyond to sort it out and make sure the install was successful. The install itself was very fast, very clean and very neat, the team who came were fantastic. We've been completely off grid since system was turned on! Would happily work with the team again

Very professional, efficient and helpful; good initial consultation with Vince (company had been recommended to us by a friend who used them, so although we got a second company to quote, we were confident in going with S Coast Solar); a bit of back and forth to clarify final configuration and specification (Vince no longer there but hadn't told us he was retiring, which would have been helpful as I'd emailed and messaged him a couple of times, getting no response). However, then spoke to other members of the team (Dean, sharing his experience of the different panel suppliers, and Scott to discuss size of battery we should have), both very straight forward and gave you confidence they knew what they were doing. Install team were good, in particular the electrician, Arthur. Worked his socks off, a long day, but discussed the alternative layouts at the outset and then after install complete, discussed how to use the app. Cleaned up very well. Scaffolding subcontractors, RJ scaffolding from Bristol, were also very good; came when they said they would, two lovely blokes, friendly and professional. So, the only minor negative was they were not great at responding to emails, but when you called the office, they were extremely helpful and actioned any requests (Claire and Monira both lovely). All in all a very good experience; a quality installation, thank you to all of the team.

Really pleased. Good communication and explanations from the outside of my enquiry. No pushy hard sell. Just answered my questions so I understand all about solar. All communication about details were clear snd prompt. No horrid call centre. The small family feel kd the company was noticeable. Surveys and install were all very smooth. And now it all works! Very happy!

From the initial enquiry through to the completed installation, the entire process was seamless and professional. The installation of the solar panels, battery, and inverter was carried out to an excellent standard, and all of the necessary documentation was provided promptly and clearly. The customer service throughout was outstanding. The team were knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely cared about delivering the best solution rather than just making a sale. They took the time to answer every question, explained everything clearly, and kept us informed at every stage. It’s refreshing to deal with genuine people who take real pride in their work and are committed to providing exceptional customer service. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and would highly recommend them to anyone considering an installation. I have already recommended to others.

My new solar works started today. Matt and Joe kept me informed when to arrive. Started straight away. Took off my old panels which were heavy. Cleaned my roof off as I had birds under looked like new roof. Cleaned my guttering. Then fitted my new panels. Looks amazing how well they worked. Afterwards did another clean up on roof and did first class job clearing up. Better then they found it lol. Nice guys answered any questions I asked. I made sure there were cold drinks for them. Then time to leave. I can't fault them. So good to speak too. Thanks Matt and Joe Arthur who arrived went straight to work on electric side of the job. He ran white trunking to hide cable, can't see it better then my first insulation many years ago. He kept me informed on what he was doing. Made an excellent job in the garage, under the stairs. Cleaned up good. Nice guy to speake too. He helped me set up the App which im not very good at. Did a brilliant job today, great to have good workmen doing such big job in a day. Thanks Matt,Joe and Arthur did 10 star rating

After comparing several solar system companies, we decided to use South Coast Solar Solutions. From the very beginning the whole experience was excellent. Everyone on the team was knowledgeable, friendly and hard working. A special thank you to Steve the salesman, Jo and Matt who fitted the solar panels and Arthur the electrician, who also took the time to show us how to use the app. We would highly recommend South Coast Solar Solutions.

The team at South Coast Solar solutions promptly engaged with me after my web query. The team were proactive to scope a potential design that I was told by other installers as impossible. The design was agreed, planned, installed and completed within a month. The installation team was mega impressive: timely, friendly, knowledgeable, polite and courteous. Well done to the entire team at South Coast Solar Solutions!

From my initial contact to the final installation I have had fantastic customer service. The quote was competitive and tailored to my exact needs. I felt confident that the sales consultant knew what I needed .I was given an installation date which didn't change, all of the tradesmen were polite and efficient at all times. The system is working well and actually exceeding my expectations. I would definitely recommend this company.

I’m very pleased with the selection of South Coast Solar as our provider. Their service, execution and professionalism has been excellent from beginning to end. From the beginning we got very good guidance from Vince, without any pushy sales techniques. When we had questions or wanted to change the specification during the sales process Vince was always fair, willing and able to provide great advice. Thoroughly recommend South Coast Solar for your solar needs

All the team were a pleasure to deal with from the start to the end of the process. I asked numerous questions, probably more than once! and they were helpful and courteous. Their price was competitive and I also wanted a local team rather than a national team as I was looking for a more personable and responsive service. !8 panels are now fixed on our natural slate roof and their work has been very tidy and the panels and battery are working very well. I would definitely recommend South Coast Solar.

Good communication from the start, I knew exactly when scaffolding was going up and down. The system only took one day to install. The guys on site were respectful, tidy and knowledgeable. An excellent company to deal with, highly recommended.

I recommend the choice of South Coast Solar. The quotation/ consultant provided confidence for best solution. I thought the on-site installers were very good, thorough and knowledgeable, tidied up after. A complete package of site specific technical detail emailed swiftly as did the scafold removal. Certificate for grid export takes some weeks.
