Originally contacted these guys to find out a bit of info about how the whole solar process worked as I'd not looked into it previously. Frustrating part of the process was that every company I asked, said I needed a different powered system. Some said 5kW and others said i'd need 10kW. What made the difference with these guys was that they spent the time time send me a spreadsheet showing me exactly the size of system I needed and why. Whilst there were cheaper options around, not by a lot, it was their knowledge of the space and professionalism that won me over in the end. Would highly recommend
