Highlights
"Overall good experience, Dan was happy to amend the quotations a number of times as i changed my mind and came across compatibility issues with inverter i initially chose and solar panels suggested. Scaffolding went up a few days prior to install, that was all good, and it was left up for a week or so afterwards in case of any issues. Install day came, and the team were onsite around 7:30 and straight onto it - delivery of all the kit from their supplier was fairly early, which was very good. Installation is fairly neat, and its been working faultlessly for almost 2 months now. All paperwork ("
"We had an amazing experience with Dan and his team. From the very beginning, Dan was incredibly patient and thorough, spending a long time with us to answer all of our questions and address our concerns. His attention to detail and genuine care gave us the confidence to choose this company. The installation was handled professionally and efficiently, and the entire process was seamless. We're now two months post-installation and are thrilled with the results and our new energy independence. Thank you, Dan!"
"Dan Reed's attentiveness to our project's design and his overall solar experience has proved to be excellent. Capital Solar installed our solar energy system of 28 x 460 AIKO panels and a Powerwall 3 system on three roofs. We are delighted with the professional work Dan Reed, Sasha and Jack undertook and completed in just two days. It is so neat and looks amazing. The Capital Solar team are nice guys, all easy to chat with and they went the extra mile to make sure everything was installed to our liking - they even noticed and then repaired a couple of broken tiles."

Smart checks
Before you hire an electrician
In England and Wales, notifiable electrical work (new circuits, a consumer unit, anything in a bathroom or kitchen) must by law be signed off under Part P of the Building Regulations — confirm they will handle that.
Prefer an electrician registered with a government-approved competent-person scheme (NICEIC, NAPIT or ELECSA) so they can self-certify the work meets the wiring regulations.
Insist on the Electrical Installation Certificate (or Minor Works Certificate) when the job is done — it is your proof the work is safe and compliant, and you will need it if you ever sell.
Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
Check any verified credentials, and that the business details independently check out.
