Reviewers frequently praise Bloom Renewables Ltd for polite, friendly staff and clear communication throughout the installation of solar panels and batteries. Customers regularly highlight tidy workmanship, neat wiring, and a knowledgeable team that helps find the right setup. The business is also noted for being responsive when resolving subsequent issues or making adjustments. On individual notes, one reviewer was disappointed by the lack of European equipment options, another mentioned a delay in starting work due to asbestos regulations, and a third noted dust had not been vacuumed up after wall drilling.
Excellent service and installation from Bloom Renewables. From initial enquiry to final commissioning - 5⭐. Nothing was too much trouble from everyone in the team at the office. I dealt mainly with Rowland in Sales and Elliot in Installation - both excellent; I can't thank them enough, they certainly went above and beyond.
The system Bloom installed for us in late January is performing beyond our expectations. The installation was excellent and conscientious, and communication with Bloom has been really good. Our bog-standard semi in South Brent faces E/W and we asked Bloom to put as many panels as possible on both sides of the roof. They managed 18 x 450w panels = 8.1 kw total and also installed a 9 kw Sigen Battery. The panels (9 on each side) generate throughout the day. March average export was about about 14 kWh/day (£1.68 per day with Outgoing Octopus at 12p per kWh) through to July at about 36 kWh/day (£4.14/day). In the summer months we've been in credit each month by about £100, and have reduced our Direct Debit with Octopus to the minimum rate of £1 per month. We also had a very efficient 3.5kw heat pump installed in January so our heating costs have been low. At this rate, based on some seasonally-adjusted projections, we're on track to remain in credit with Octopus through the coming winter and into next year, even with charging our electric car. We never imagined that that these solar panels might cover all our energy costs! So we are delighted! We would highly recommend Bloom - they have been excellent all round!
Just had solar panels and a battery installed by Bloom. Everyone I spoke to at the company, from initial quote to installation was very friendly and professional. I talked through multiple options and the benefits of each system was explained along with the costs. Small delay in the install which was no fault of anyone at Bloom (scaffolding not completed before the install) and the roofers and electrician stayed a day longer than they had planned to complete which was appreciated. The system has been fully functional for a week and I haven't drawn anything from the national grid the whole time which is exactly what I was hoping for. I would recommend Bloom to anyone looking for a solar install.
First class service by Bloom. We had given up hope on ever managing this work as several businesses put our requirements on the too difficult pile or , said we were out of their area. We were recommended to Bloom by one business, as we were outside of their area. Luckily for us Bloom rose to the challenge. Within a few days their sales lead met with us, we then met with their technical lead and within a couple of weeks the work was scheduled. It took the Bloom team two days to erect 80 panels, two batteries and a charging point. An absolutely first class team together with an installation at a reasonable price. We are now using our sunshine and saving!
Second install by Bloom Renewables, end of 2024 I had a Powerwall 3 installed onto an existing PV system, complicated install as battery over 10m from consumer unit and gateway will internal and external cable routing. Added a Hypervolt 3 Pro, ordered and supplied by Bloom, this week. Again cannot fault the professionalism of Rowan, Tim and the on-site installers. Kept fully updated through the process on both occasions. Fitters very police and professional, nice clean and tidy installs, neat cable runs and additional cabling, Henley blocks, conduit etc in the consumer unit cupboard next to the gateway.
I was very impressed with Bloom Renewables when installing my Tesla Power Wall 3 and Gateway. The process from initial site visit, quote, installation and testing was quick and trouble free. The website is very good as is the library of related documentation. The staff are all very helpful and keen to give customers what they want. I would highly recommend Bloom Renewables.
The Bloom team were a great bunch to work with, knowledgeable, tidy work, from the sales, site surveys, scaffolding, , installation and commissioning, first class, wouldn't hesitate to recommend ...
My installation of panels & a Tesla battery went really well with completion towards the end of January this year. Bloom offer really good value for money. I have just had a RCB replacement which was carried out in no time by Eliott, who was professional & knowledgeable. The RCB is a Tesla issue & has no bearing on Bloom. Thank you.
I looked for a local small company, having received a deluge of unsolicited publicity from companies which I felt may not exist when issues arose after installation. Visiting reps from two other companies never came back. First discussions with Bloom helpful..and quotations laid out clearly in detail..would have liked info on grant availability and possibility of Planning permission. Thorough follow up site meeting. Phone calls always answered. Appreciate admin arrangements with MCS , DNO managed for me. Installation crew first class, taking time and care, available to discuss details and flexible. Installation within 4 days in spite of inevitable small issues on site. All in all a helpful, friendly and thoroughly competent. Functioning of system explained well. Essentially, feel confident that help will be there when needed. Disappointed that no European equipment offered as unhappy with unethically produced kit from Chinese companies and Tesla/American under current administration. Would like to see support for companies operating under shared system of values but understand Bloom must feel equipment and back up totally reliable.
Thank you for installing our PV panel array. An excellent job by the whole Team at Bloom Renewables. I am always impressed by people that do what they promise and on time and well and in a very friendly way. Everyone in your team did that – exceptional. Martyn, Shillingford Organics, Exeter
Recommended I had 9 panels and Sigen 8kW battery installed in February. I chose Bloom because they were the most knowledgeable and gave detailed answers to questions. And price was reasonable, not quite the cheapest but some way below the most expensive. In particular they understood building regs approvals and were able to provide self certification for all parts of Building regs, not just electricals. Other suppliers were very vague on this point. When it came to installation communication was good, the site team were also excellent. Tidy, considerate and no problems at all. Wiring and installation is very neat. Post installation I got all the paperwork I was expecting. And the system works as expected
Good service from initial survey visit to final completion. Would have no hesitations in recommending company
Great offer from Bloom Renewables for a Tesla Powerwall 3 installation. Harry came to see me. Very knowledgeable and happy to accommodate all my requirements for a tricky discreet install in a listed building. The installation team were superb. I had one concern about the position of the rather bulky isolation breaker. Instead of fobbing me off they sent a team out to move it to a more discreet location. What service! Great company to deal with, good communication throughout. Have already recommended them to a neighbour. The Powerwall 3 is also giving me such fun. I have switched energy suppliers and now get 6 hours overnight at 5p per unit. I charge the battery and have a load of smart switches to run towel rails, dehumidifiers, even ebike battery charging overnight. Washing machine and dishwasher too. I also have an old domestic hot water tank in my workshop, heated overnight by an immersion heater and I extract the heat during the day with a central heating pump through two plinth radiators. Should cut my electricity bill by 75 percent. My policy is to move as much as possible to the cheap overnight period and save the battery for things that have to run during the day. The battery seamlessly takes over during power cuts, rather comforting in the recent storms. If power cuts become more frequent in the future I will get Bloom Renewables to fit an extra battery.
The team at Bloom have now installed my solar system in 2 stages, totalling just over 9kW of generation. We went with the second stage because the initial installation worked so well, and delivers reliable generation even in the winter months. They have just installed a Tesla Powerwall 3, which has only been running for a week and is doing exactly as expected. We are running this system to supply a 11kW heat pump, and the combination of solar, battery, and heat pump is a very effective solution. When combined with a variable electricity tariff it means that our electricity bill will be very low, possibly negative - assuming we get a summer next year! The team at Bloom are very chilled out and just get on with the job - highly recommended.
We have recently contacted Bloom regarding the Tesla Battery. They were helpful informative and efficient. Once agreed the process was swift and easy and now up and running very pleased with the battery and the app.
Great experience from initial enquiry through to fitting and installation of our Solar, Battery and EV charger. Everyone I spoke to at Bloom was really friendly and helpful - Pete was patient whilst I decided what options to go for, Tim and the team liaised with my roofer seamlessly, the team working on the roof were brilliant, and Dave + the engineers did a great job doing all the electrical bits and explaining it in terms a lay person could understand. They were all also very patient and tolerant of my 'mardy' Labrador who thinks barking at everyone is great sport. Massive thank you to the whole team.
So happy with our solar system. 5* service and installation. We now are generating enough power to run our workshop, heat water, charge the car and feed back into the grid. Thank you Bloom!
20kWh libbi installed as A/C coupled to an existing myenergi setup. Good communication throughout and installation / commissioning completed to a high standard.
Absolutely brilliant!! With our previous inverter dead (12 years old from another company), I contacted Harry of Bloom Renewables this Tuesday. Rob came to inspect the following morning. We were given 2 options and chose one which involved an upgrade and a battery at a competitive price. 2 days later, electrician Dave came to do the installation. It started working that afternoon, with an online display showing what we are generating and storing. So glad we chose Bloom! A very big thank you from Mike & Val!!
First class and attentive service, both on the job and with follow-up support.
After a successful installation on our home we invited Bloom to quote for an installation on the church's parish centre roof. Its been running for 16 months now and we are more than pleased with it. The quality of the work is very good, and the workmen are very polite and helpful. We will always recommend Bloom Renewables.
So Happy we went with Bloom. The staff are very friendly and have great knowledge of the solar products they sell. The install went very well and they are a pleasure to deal with. It also helps that they are local too.
Great service - very professional team - prompt and efficient - system has been running well for a few months - had a few teething problems but the after sales service has been excellent - I have no hesitation in recommending them
Bloom were blooming great. My install wasn't simple for various reasons, but they were amazing, responsive, professional and went above and beyond the call of duty.
I acquired several quotes for my solar panels and battery installation but Bloom Renewables were the most professional and thorough in their approach when quoting. Their team of installers were very professional, knowledgeable and methodical. They kept me fully informed throughout and constantly checked with me if I had any preferences with each stage of the installation. I would thoroughly recommend this company.
We had a set of PV panels which were installed over 10 years ago, causing a leak in the roof. We asked Bloom to remove the old panels so that the roof could be repaired, and to advise on reinstallation or replacement with new panels and a larger system including batteries. After useful meetings to discuss our situation and needs in detail, they set out various costed options in a largely intelligible way, and explained and advised clearly and sensibly. The work was done to time and with very little disruption; the work appears to be of good quality; there were no unexpected additional costs; and the system in now up and running and appears to be functioning as expected. So far, so good - many thanks.
All of the people from Bloom Renewables that we have interacted with were knowledgeable, professional and friendly. During our purchase process we modified the design a number of times as my knowledge of the possibilities of the solar/battery system improved. The Bloom team worked with us to get to a design that we are extremely happy with. The installation went seamlessly and the workmanship is to a high quality. I would recommend Bloom Renewables without question.
Good advice & guidance during the planning stage, the staff who carried out the installation were very professional, well mannered and a pleasure to be around. A thoroughly professional service from start to finish.
Contacted Bloom for some follow up support due to a problem with a third party appliance and they sorted it out quickly. As ever, very helpful and courteous. The system they installed for us has exceeded our expectations in the 12 months we have had it.
I wanted additional panels on my garage roof. I contacted Bloom Renewables and found them to be knowledgeable, efficient and very professional. The installation team were excellent and all communications with the management and admin staff was polite and helpful. I can happily recommend them.
Really excellent people to work with. All the elements of the solar power system were fitted quickly and tidily by competent and efficient teams. I took off one star because it took a long time to get started - but that was because I had a roof containing a micro % of asbestos and the regs require new solutions. Additional points for finding a solution for me and making it all come together. I really liked working with this company & would recommend them to everyone
A good experience all round. Everyone we dealt with for our solar + battery system was helpful and knowledgeable, with some good advice. They were accommodating for our needs, and we are very pleased with the end result. Pricing for our GivEnergy system was in line with other proposals.
The Bloom Renewables team have recently completed our install of a solar system and battery backup and the knowledge, service, quality of work, and communication has been outstanding. What sets Bloom Renewables apart is their clear passion and commitment to renewable energy solutions. We were recommended Bloom Renewables from a couple of other people which gave us the confidence to approach them when considering having solar installed.There was no 'hard sell' or overpromising instead there was a genuine desire to find the right solution for us. From the outset Rob Carney gave us the confidence to know we were in safe hands. There was a real in-depth preliminary survey of our property and location and well thought out suggestions around how to maximise harnessing solar energy from our South facing location. No questions from us have been considered too stupid and every question has been met with patience and real listening to understand the customers requirements. We felt the way we have been treated demonstrates that Bloom put the customer front and centre. The team of 5 who turned up to work on the install were communicative, friendly and helpful. Checking in with us along the way we made a few changes to routing points etc which the team accommodated without fuss or issue. We are immensely pleased with the install and the results it is giving us in terms of sun generated power already and has exceeded our own expectations in terms of its efficiency. In this day and age where companies promise you the world to sign on the dotted line Bloom Renewables is a complete breath of fresh air. The fact that as an organisation they are working on community based projects using solar demonstrates they are truly serious and committed to their purpose as a renewables company. We have just come off a handover meeting with Rob who was checking in to see if we had any further questions and that everything is functioning as planned, and its just cemented in our minds what an amazing organisation they are and that others should know what Bloom Renewables can do for you! Thank you again to the whole team at Bloom for such a professional service, we couldn't be more pleased with the end result and have already recommended you to others.
Bloom installed our solar+battery system in September 23, they were great throughout the process. There was a slight issue with the system initially (not their fault) and they were extremely proactive and professional in getting it sorted quickly. Highly recommended.
Excellent advice from Mark and top service from the team. Very happy indeed and can recommend without hesitation
Bloom renewables were so helpful and explained everything so clearly. Thank you for your time and excellent service. I will definitely be recommending your service to friends and family!
I had Bloom Renewables come out and survey my roof after another solar installer had fitted panels incorrectly. They provided me with a full report which ultimately helped me gain full compensation. I was impressed with how thorough and professional they were and my only regret was that I didn't use Bloom Renewables in the first place. If you want peace of mind and a professional service then I would highly recommend them.
My wife and I are delighted with our Bloom Renewables Solar Panel Installation and associated Tesla battery which are all working perfectly. In particular, we were most impressed with the unfailing knowledge and skills of the Bloom installation team who went the extra mile in cooperating and coordinating with a separate team of roofers who were contemporaneously installing a new slate roof. Having now linked the Tesla system to my mobile via the Tesla App provided (also connected to my supplier "Octopus") I can now monitor and control the system from anywhere in the world. Additionally, I was very impressed with Bloom Renewable's rapid, positive and helpful response to a subsequent roof issue (which turned out to have been pre-existing). Based on my experience I have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending Bloom Renewables to anyone requiring a Solar Panel system.
The Apricot Centre is delighted with it's 60 PV Panels installed by Bloom Renewables last year. This has helped us to weather the challenging increases in energy charges as a business, and made us more resilient to some of the present difficulties faced by so many small businesses. 2 years ago we had 10 PV panels from Bloom Renewables. This was a complex installation as the panels were put on a frame in a field about 100 yards from the house. It has been a very successful installation. Thankyou
Thrilled with our new solar set up. Team have been great from start to finish, clean and tidy and communicated throughout. Enjoying the last of the summer sunshine and free energy!
Excellent experience. Easy to deal with Bloom - nice people, efficient and effective. Sound advice with sensible options. Prompt response to questions. Good service with minimum fuss. What more could you want?
System: 12x420W panels & Tesla Powerwall. The team at Blooms are clearly passionate about bringing renewables into the mainstream. Rob's flexibility during the quoting process was excellent and Dave's workmanship on the final install was exemplary. The options presented to me and the use of OpenSolar to explain the system design and execution was great. Had a few issues with final delivery but Mark and the team sorted these out quickly and to a high standard. Would use again. Quoted price was mid-range and in keeping with competitors of similar size.
2 months now since Bloom Renewables installed 16 panels with GivEnergy 5KW inverter and 2 x 9.5KW batteries. Having been recommended by a neighbour, my experience with Bloom has been 1st class. Every interaction with everyone of the team, has been excellent, from pre-sales, survey, fitting, commissioning, admin & payments, and a few follow-up questions. Bloom also arranged for the scaffolding to stay up another 2 weeks, so I' was able to paint the chimney, clean moss off the roof, fix a gutter, and fit a SunTube too. I was especially re-assured by the T&C's of the contract and also the handover process and all the documentation I received. The service was so good, that the only feedback I had was in relation to vacuuming up the dust from the holes drilled for fitting the components to the garage wall. Thank-you Bloom Renewables, you're all great.
Bloom Renewables are excellent - a very personalised approach which allows for discussion of the project beforehand. We were kept updated throughout, and the work was done carefully and considerately. Highly recommend these guys. Top quality and highly skilled.
Couldn’t recommend them more highly. The Bloom team are highly skilled, and very thoughtful in all that they do. They delivered what was needed rather than “sold” to us and drew on their considerable depth of knowledge to work out the right system for us. It was a pleasure to work with them from beginning to end and we are delighted with our solar and battery system.
Highly professional service.
Excellent customer service, incredibly personable, reliable and excellent quality of work. They also believe passionately in what they do which was important for us. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bloom Renewables.
