Start Solar

We had our solar system installed about two weeks ago by Start Solar and the whole process has been really straightforward. Any questions we had between ordering and installation were answered quickly and clearly. Suzie came out to our home and explained everything really well, which made the decision much easier. The installation team were efficient, clean and tidy, and talked us through what they were doing as they went. The app is also great and has already made us much more aware of our electricity use. Overall, a very positive experience so far.

Hi Start Solar provided an excellent service the installers Fergal and John were great lads and very good at what they did. The system is working well and the cabling etc is all neatly installed. Would thoroughly recommend and have done so to friends and family.

To I say my experience with this company was positive does not cover it. Have been considering.Solar for some time but as we have a 3 storey South East facing house did not think it would be viable with fiscally or logistically.. Having spoken to a number of companies that did indeed seem to be the case, even if they would consider an installation given the height of the roof I was getting the impression I was being offered an “off the peg” package when I wanted it tailored to me .Andrew from Start Solar gave me that, face to face meeting to answer my many many questions, gave me confidence in dealing with this company. Installation agreed, installed Tuesday the 13 of May 2025 (3 days ago) by an amazing team, seeing the benefits already. Highly recommended!

After going through a robust procurement exercise, I made the decision to go with ‘Start Solar’ owned by Andrew McKee. Andrew took the time to explain all the features and benefits of solar power how it would all work on my roof and how investing money in my roof made better sense than keeping it in the bank. The installation day went smoothly and everything he said would did happen dead. I chose a system with 15 panels a 10 kW battery, an inverter and an Eddie. I can already see that I am generating my own electricity to run my household during the day and the night and also heat my water and yet it’s only the end of February. I highly recommend Andrew and his team.

Start Solar were excellent at guiding us through all the options we had when it came to adding solar and a battery to our house. From the initial phone chat with Suzie, to our assessment with Andrew, we were confident we had picked the right business to work with. I was particularly keen to ensure that the installation was neat and fitted in well with the existing design of the house, which is where Damien and the install team did such an excellent job. I've been so happy the whole process - we have not imported any electricity from the grid since the install one month ago (in fact we are now exporting!). Would highly recommend.

Start solar 5 star

From the moment I met the guys from start solar to the completion of the installation was seam less. I had made an appointment with Andrew, called up to my house and told me the best places to mount the solar panels, then explained all the pros of solar and how it all worked. Any questions I asked were all answered very professional and with full explanations. These guys knew there stuff and I felt very comfortable to place an order there and then. About 8 weeks later my instal was arranged. The guys showed up around 8am - I went onto work and came back home at 4.30pm and the electrician was onsite just finishing up. I assumed they had to come the next day to finish, however they had everything done and dusted, and cleaned up. All my batteries and inverters was put up so tidy and out of the way in the attic. They explained all to me, downloaded the apps to my phone and showed me how to use the new car charger. The icing on the cake for me was the phone call from start solars head office around 15mins after the engineer has left. Follow up phone call to check that everything was done as it should be and what would happen moving forward. Total professional service from the time Andrew walked down my driveway until the engineer walked back up it again with the job complete. I would recommend having a chat with these guys even if you’re considering this for 6 months or a year down the line. Super helpful and professional with no pressure to buy their product.

Self sufficient and economically sensible! Plus Start Solar are extremely reliable!

Can’t recommend the team at Start Solar…

Can’t recommend the team at Start Solar enough. From site survey to installation everything was clear and simple.

StartSolar system and install

I obtained several quotes for my solar system and although StartSolar was not the cheapest for the spec of system I am glad I went with them. Installed without a hitch, very happy with system.
