What customers say on
Highly recommend Colum Gallagher Electrical & Solar. System is working perfectly and he was always available to answer the phone if any questions needed. His after care is 100%, which was the main reason for choosing Colum Gallagher. The system stood up perfectly to the Red warning of storm Éowyn's wind speeds of ~160KPH. Couldn’t recommend him enough to do any job. Thanks very much Colum for your professional install of my Ground Mounted Solar System.
I highly recommend Colum Gallagher Electrical & Solar The service was quick and the staff were very friendly. The product quality is consistently outstanding, exceeding my expectations. I was completely impressed with their professionalism and customer service.
Colum has rewired my house in 2022 and also installed ground mounted solar system in 2024. Couldn’t recommend him enough to do any job, great care and attention to detail and sound to deal with too.
Colum and his team have installed an EV charger and added additional solar panels to an existing installation. His team are professional and do a very neat job. All the work is done to the best safety standards. Highly recommend
Gentleman to deal with. Solar system installed and was up and running in no time once certified. Great aftercare too. Highly recommend Colum Gallagher Electrical & Solar.
Urban vs rural installation differences in Cork
Cork City's Victorian and Edwardian terraces present different installation challenges than new-build estates in suburbs like Ballincollig, Carrigaline, and Douglas. Older city-centre properties often have slate roofs requiring specialist brackets and may need scaffolding on narrow streets — adding €500–€1,000 to installation costs. Newer suburban estates typically have concrete tile roofs with standard mounting, and many have garage or shed roofs that can accommodate additional panels.
