“I asked for quotes and subsequently used Appleby to add battery storage to my existing solar setup and they were brilliant. Max came and quoted quickly, it was clear and easy to understand, and the work was completed efficiently. An excellent job and they even rectified a couple of issues with my set up while doing the work to make things more efficient. A couple of follow up queries were responded to really quickly and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended!”
