“Greenman provided us with the best value quote of the ones we approached. They talked the whole project through with us and designed based on our needs. Once we had agreed the contract, the work was completed, with scaffolding removed within two weeks!! Once the guys finished you would not have known they had been, with the (not insignificant) infrastructure installed neatly and discretely around the property. Now it is complete, we’re surprised just how much energy our panels are producing, especially during a very wet February !! Very pleased.”

Highlights
“Greenman Solar installed a 6.KW system on two sections of roof on our home in Hastings. The whole process was slick and efficient. Scaffolding arrived on time on the Tuesday, Solar installed Wednesday and Thursday, scaffolding removed Friday. The team were excellent and worked hard, even through one day of the great British summer of heavy rain and strong winds. The installation looks great and is working very well too. The panels have been installed perfectly, and the electrical work in our garage has been cabled and installed neatly. We are very pleased with the overall experience.”
“Greenman Solar in Ashford gave us excellent help and advice when planning and installing our new solar & battery system. Project manager, Keith, really stepped up to the plate with all the hand-holding, reassurance and not losing his cool with our many questions, things we queried and double checked during the installation. The installers were really courteous and were happy to explain technical stuff in layman's terms, consult us on the placement of the kit and gave us a really detailed handover at the end. We really could not have achieved the superb installation we now have without you!”

Official checkOn the public register
Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 15 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Electrical work in homes in England & Wales should be done by a registered competent person who can self-certify it meets the Part P safety rules. Check they're on the official register.
Check the electrical registerIn 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.
