Direct Market Solutions Limited T/A Blue Electrics is described as friendly and professional, with good communication throughout many solar, battery and EV charger jobs. Reviewers often mention prompt, helpful replies and strong aftercare, including help with apps, tariffs and paperwork. Several note neat, tidy workmanship and careful installation, and a few say the company was competitive or fairly priced. One reviewer says it was possibly not the cheapest option but felt confident in the skills, while another reports problems from a previous installer and says Blue Electrics fixed them and found at least one issue that was reducing the available battery power.
Start to finish excellent communication. Non standard install. An upgrade to another companies work. Shopped around and was lucky to find genuine customer focussed team. If you don't have a good experience with this team it's probably your fault. No fuss, delivered as agreed, polite and respectful installers. No stress happy customer.
Brilliant!! We had a solar and battery set up. Blue electrics were really well informed, helped us to put together an excellent package for us and the installation was so smooth. The aftercare has been great, with extremely quick replies to queries. We would absolutely recommend Blue electrics - and have done to friends already
Friendly and professional local business. They are very communicative, and very knowledgeable about solar power and batteries. The roofers were careful and did an excellent job installing our panels, and the electrical team seemed very competent. Possibly not the cheapest option, but we felt confident in their skills, and were very happy with the outcome.
After getting numerous quotes from different companies, I decided to purchase a Tesla Powerwall 3 through Blue Electrics. Ultimately, the decision came down to price,and blue electrics where the most competitive, I honestly can’t fault the communication and customer service from Rich. He was always on hand to answer all my questions, no matter the time of day, which gave me confidence that I was making the right choice. Everything that was agreed was delivered on time and on budget, with fantastic customer service throughout the whole process. An absolute pleasure to do business with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Blue Electrics to anyone considering a Powerwall or battery installation.
From design to installation and completion fantastic, highly recommend for both their expertise and workmanship.
Blue Electrics recently installed a solar and battery combination at the home of a charity I am involved with and their efficiency and workmanship was excellent throughout. The installers went the extra mile to make sure the installation was neat and streamlined. I was so impressed that I contracted them to install a battery at my home, which was also completed quickly and very neatly. The aftercare is also excellent with extra help to set everything up with the electricty supplier.
Blue electric installed a DC Sigenergy EV charger to my existing system. Very pleased with the install, and emails always responded to promptly. Would recommend.
Blue Electrics were extremely helpful from design to install. Great information up front and install of panels, batteries and inverter was smooth and completed quickly. L Also great post install service with a couple of minor queries. Very friendly service from all the guys involved ! System is working great ! Very happy customers ! Highly recommend !!!
Great Service, Rich was amazing at helping understand the system we have in place, and all the need to know information. Thank you
Solar and battery install. Good communication both pre, during and post work. Quality products and work done. Thanks to all involved
Having Rich and the team at Blue Electrics instal solar PV and battery was the right choice ⚡ From start to finish they've been friendly, personable, and helped educate us. And we're loving the system! 🔋 We had a lot of back and forth over an extended period of time (over design, cost, timescales of other work). But the communication was always prompt, enthusiastic, and patient. The finish and quality has been great. They also helped future proof our home by running an additional cable for future EV charging. Save having the wiring challenge again! The commissioning and finalisation process went well. And it's been brilliantly timed with plenty of sunshine ☀️ Thank you all.
five star review cause google doesn't let you give six. I recently had a full solar and electrical overhaul by Blue Electrics, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They handled the design and planning for 14 solar panels, a battery storage system, a new consumer unit for the entire house, and an EV charging port. From the initial survey, their attention to detail gave me total confidence. They used a drone to take aerial photos and precise measurements of the roof, and even went into the attic to ensure the structure was in good repair, They took photos of my roof tiles to ensure they could source exact matches if any broke during the install. I had four spares ready, but their team was so careful that not a single one was damaged. we discussed exactly where the battery would sit and mapped out the cable run for the EV charger on the opposite side of the house so there were no surprises. What stood out the most: Communication: They answered all my questions (several times!) and kept me fully updated on the process before they even arrived. Professionalism: The team turned up exactly on the week they promised. Each day, they briefed me on the progress and what to expect next. Expertise: They are knowledgeable, professional, and kept the site incredibly clean. Before leaving, they double-checked every single component to ensure the system was 100% operational. After-Sales Support: The service didn't stop once the installation was finished. Their after-sales support has been excellent; they ensured I understood how to monitor the system and confirmed everything was working perfectly, I feel confident I am able to contact them with any more questions I have It is refreshing to have work done by a company that is this thorough. I would definitely have Blue Electrics back for any future projects and wouldn't hesitate in recommending to anyone. Thank you guys.
Very professional and excellent company. My solar was fitted last October by Blue Electrics and it all went very well. Really pleased now the sun is shining at last! One of the big pluses of the team is that they are so responsive and helpful in answering questions and queries. They are local and much better than the big multinationals I approached. Thank you.
Absolutely amazing service. Had an electric car charger installed and they went above and beyond. Very neat and tidy!!
Paul expertly fitted our EV charger and did a brilliant, neat and timely job. Real professional - would recommend
Recently had a solar and battery system installed by the team. From initial quote through to project completion everyone has been fantastic. Communication at all stages was clear and they were always happy to answer any supplementary questions. Install proceeded as planned, and again the team were friendly and happy to adapt to some of the quirks of my property without a grumble to be heard. Can't recommend Blue Electrics enough.
Great company. Lovely people. Would recommend.
Recently had solar and battery install, from the start of my journey to the completion of the install the communication from Rich at Blue Electrics has been very good with helpful and clear guidance as well as answering all my questions straight away. On day of installation the electrician Paul talked me through the installation, we also discussed best way to reduce how much cabling going to be visible. I would recommend Blue Electrics and after the install Rich has continued to make sure I am happy with the system and answer to any follow up questions I might have.
Blue Electrics installed our 16kw Sigenergy battery storage along with a 12kw inverter and Gateway back in April. Due to building work that was about to take place, we have only now been able to have the 8 445w JA solar panels fitted. From initial enquiries all the way through to handover, the staff at Blue Electrics have been first class. I look forward to dealing with them again when I need more storage or solar in the future. I would highly recommend this first class company.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A truly outstanding experience from start to finish! Blue Energy have been nothing short of exceptional. From the very first call, Rich was superb – guiding me clearly through the whole process, explaining how to get the very best from the battery system, and always quick to respond to any question. Ahead of installation we were kept fully informed on timings and exactly who would be attending, which was a refreshing change from most contractors. On the day, Paul led the install with absolute precision. The workmanship, cabling and overall finish were meticulous – clearly a team that takes pride in what they do. Since commissioning, the system has run flawlessly from day one. Rich still checks in regularly, monitoring our setup and even liaising with the Grid on an over‑voltage issue (completely unrelated to Blue Energy’s work) to make sure everything stays optimised. It’s rare to deal with a company that delivers this level of care, expertise and follow‑through. I would recommend Blue Energy without hesitation – a fantastic outfit and an absolute pleasure to work with.
Blue Electrics installed Sigenergy batteries and an inverter for us last month. Had to wire up new garage and find solutions to the challenges of connecting system to our old house whilst also future proofing it for solar at a later date. Professional and knowledgeable from initial consultation, installation to first usage and beyond! Very happy with their involvement and would fully recommend. Grateful thanks to Richard and Paul for a fantastic job.
Blue Electrics are a model company for quality customer service. Having taken the decision to explore the installation of solar panels and battery we approached a number of companies. Blue Electrics were recommended by a number people living locally who had had solar solutions installed by the them. The company took the time to really understand our needs before providing a detailed proposal. We discussed a number of scenarios which modified the initial proposal, without feeling pressure to make a decision. A detailed quote recorded our final decision. The installation team were totally professional . The installation was quality assured following commissioning. All in all we are highly satisfied with Blue Electrics and would be happy to recommend them.
This is about a solar and battery installation. We had lots of companies visit us and discuss our options. We had a number of quotes for various systems. We chose Blue Electrics for a number of reasons. Our installation turned out to be quite complicated and required us to install a three phase system first. Rich at Blue Electrics helped with this process long before we actually engaged the company for the solar/battery installation. He is very knowledgeable . He listened to what we needed to do. He did not try to bamboozle us with technical terms and complex information..We were confident in what we were being told. We had a competitive quote for a great system (sigenergy). All questions promptly dealt with. They are fairly local to us.The guys that did the installation were great and knew their stuff. Highly recommend this team.
Well what an amazing Team at Blue Electrics!! Check out our film on Solar Homing Adventures channel on You Tube!! We had an existing 3kw system of solar panels on our house when we bought it new in 2017 and have loved the renewable energy in our all electric house. We acquired an EV in 2021 and being all electric have seen prices rise to crazy levels in the last 4 years. After our existing old 3kw inverter, based in our loft, gave up in December 2024 we decided to replace it with a larger inverter, more solar panels and 32kws of house batteries to capture more solar power and benefit from cheaper off peak tariffs - after a switch to Octopus Intelligent Go. We obtained 5 quotes and Blue Electrics were well ahead of the pack!! The whole Blue Electrics Team have been outstanding from start to finish and are extremely knowledgeable about all things solar, battery, home power storage and beyond. The installation Team were great to have at our house and were keen to ensure every step of the installation was done to our satisfaction and in line with our expectations. Top work!! A special mention for Richard who led the whole quotation process for Blue Electrics, and who answered my many and varied questions promptly and efficiently. As an initial point of contact for Blue Electrics, Richard has been an integral part of the project and undoubtedly a significant contributor to our decision to choose the Blue Electrics Team for our installation. Huge thanks from us and a huge recommendation for others to use this excellent company!!
Blue Electrics were excellent from start to finish conducting maintenance at rental property on a solar array followed by upgrading work and battery fit at my home address. They answered all my questions and offered a cheaper solution to my request. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a solar and battery home solution. Definitely a 5 star rating!
Excellent service from start to finish! Rich was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain the best options for replacing our broken inverter and choosing the right battery storage solution. His advice was clear and helpful, giving us real confidence in the decisions we made. Paul and Johnny arrived on time and worked efficiently, carefully planning the cable layout to ensure it was as convenient and discreet as possible for us. The installation was carried out neatly and professionally, with the battery placed exactly where we requested. Rich also popped by during the job to check on progress and advise us on the best energy tariff options—something we really appreciated. Johnny was fantastic in setting up the app and walking us through how it all works, including what to monitor going forward. The quote was fair, the work was tidy, and the customer service was excellent throughout. We’re very happy and looking forward to seeing a reduction in our electricity bills! Highly recommend.
Fantastic company to deal with. Excellent advice, a great price and a great installation. They fitted solar panels, an inverter and new battery system at Banwen Allotment and also did a great repair job at the St Patrick's monument in the village of Banwen. Richard and the whole team are friendly, approachable and happy to discuss your requirements. We would wholeheartedly recommend them.
Blue Electrics and their entire team provided an absolutely amazing and seamless experience from start to finish with my new Solar and Battery system! I wholeheartedly recommend them. From my very first contact with Rich, his enthusiasm was infectious. He was incredibly knowledgeable and truly listened to my specific needs, patiently tweaking designs at my request without any pushy sales tactics. He provided detailed information, sun path diagrams, efficiency estimations and even used a drone to assess the roof suitability and sent the footage to me. I had a number of companies quoting for me, some never even visited and just provided generic quotes from using google maps, with Blue Electrics they really have the personal touch that makes the difference. The installation team was equally brilliant - fast, highly efficient, polite and exceptionally respectful of my property. Every aspect of their work was incredibly neat and tidy with all cables expertly routed and hidden. The battery and inverter installation in the garage is remarkably non-intrusive and looks fantastic, the engineers consistently checked in with me at each stage to ensure my satisfaction. Shaun and Dave deserve special mention for their incredible job with the roof & solar panels - I've never been a fan of how solar panels look but the sleek black panels truly look glorious on my roof! A thoughtful touch that really stood out was their use of a portable power station, which allowed me to stay connected and continue working from home even when the mains power was temporarily off. Furthermore, the pricing was transparent and highly competitive, with every item clearly listed. Following installation, all certificates were promptly lodged and provided and Rich even popped over to provide me with advice and help me with setting up the correct tariffs. If you're considering solar do not hesitate to choose Blue Electrics!
I recently had the pleasure of having a solar battery installed by Blue Electrics, and I can’t express how impressed I am with their service. From the very beginning, Richard took the time to discuss our needs in depth, ensuring he understood exactly what we were looking for. His expertise and dedication resulted in a perfect setup that fits our requirements flawlessly. The installation team was equally fantastic. They were not only efficient but also meticulous, making sure everything was working perfectly before they left. I truly appreciated their attention to detail and the effort they put into keeping the workspace clean and tidy throughout the installation process. Overall, the team at Blue Electrics has been absolutely amazing. Their customer service is truly out of this world, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of electrical services 👌
Installation and supply of Fogstar 16.5KW Battery. Excellent installer team, super friendly and helpful, could not fault them. Contact from management team excellent also. Early days but super pleased so far,
I was looking for a Solar and Battery installer and found Blue Electrics through an approved installer search. Richard and his team were amazing throughout and is always available to advise and answer questions. Richard visited promptly to survey the property (including drone survey of the roof), talked through the options and was able to explain and answer all the technical questions. Richard is genuinely passionate about the technology and was sure to advise on the best fit for my requirements. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience in the installs which gave me the confidence to proceed. A fully detailed quote and survey results were turned around in days. The quote was at the right and fair price. The service provided was so much more professional than another supplier I contacted. I went for the EcoFlow PowerOcean Hybrid Inverter/Battery and All Black Panels which were professionally installed by the team in 2 days. The team were fantastic at every step, such a quality installation with no issues. Honestly could not fault it and I am a very much a perfectionist. If you are looking for solar and battery then honestly do not hesitate to ask Blue Electrics. Richard and his team will not disappoint.
We have been delighted with Blue Electrics. Rich and the whole team have been super helpful, efficient and professional. We had a great experience right from the first site visit to receiving our quote, having our solar panels installed and commissioned and our feet sales care and support. Many thanks!
I almost gave up hope of having Solar panels to my Decra Stratos slate effect metal roof until I was referred to Blue Electrics . The time and trouble taken to source suitable mountings was exemplary. Richard and the team were outstanding I could not be more pleased.
We recently had 15kw solar panels an batteries installed at our farm & campsite near Brecon. Great service from the start great communication throughout. Finished on schedule. Highly recommended.
Had eco flow battery & hybrid installation wit the team from blue electrics and couldn’t fault the team at all, clean, professional and friendly team and highly recommend. Then had them back to install a hypervolt wall charger and change of consumer unit and again nothing was an issue.. the team are extremely friendly and talk you through every step of the process Thank you to Rich, Jonathan, Dylan and Paul
We had a Solar PV & Battery system installed with Blue Electrics. We are really happy with the high quality of design, installation and level of aftercare for the system. All the relevant applications were taken care of for us, in a timely manner. When we look to further expand the system, Blue Electrics will remain our no.1 choice. Highly recommended.
My solar journey began when I got in touch with Richard at Blue Electrics after being slightly messed around by another installer. Richard had all the time in the world to discuss our needs and quickly came up with a suitable system design. I found the quote competitive and arranged a free and no obligation visit where Richard came to survey the property and make sure the proposed system would be suitable and safe (even brought a 4k drone to create footage for the roofers!). After this visit which was both informative and completely free of pressure to proceed, I was certain that Blue Electrics were the company I wanted to use for my Solar and Battery installation. DNO application was fast-tracked to ensure it was back in time for the dates that I proposed for installation and the scaffolding was erected on the first day as promised. On the second and third days the team from Blue Electrics arrived when they said they would. They were friendly, hard working and clearly care about the quality of their work. Everything was installed and up and running in the timeframe Richard had suggested and is looking smart and working as promised. The team left no mess whatsoever. Following install I have been in regular contact with Richard who has helped me switch to the best tariff for our situation and has stated that should I ever have any questions or problems they are always happy to hear from and help their customers. I am more than impressed with my experience with Blue Electrics and would very much recommend them to anyone looking into a Solar and/or battery installation. They are self confessed solar geeks and they are passionate about their field. There is no hard sell and they are very considerate of what you want and need out of your system when designing it. I will definitely be contacting Blue Electrics when the time comes to install an EV charger or increase my battery storage if usage requires. 👏 Thanks Blue Electrics you were awesome 👏
Fantastic service from a lovely local company. I contact a few companies at the last min during re-roofing my house to inquire about PV and battery installation. Explaining that I had a very tight schedule, Rich promptly visited the house and within 24 hours sent the output modelling, quote and had applied for DNO approval. A week later the installation team was on site, and the full installation was completed the following morning. Rich contacted me to set up the app, inputed all the required details. The building approval notice and MCS approval were also received shortly after. The installation could not have been better, installed to a very high standard, long guarantee provided for materials and installtion and the price was very competitive. I will be using this company for another install later in the year.
From around the end of September I have been in contact with Richard at Blue Electrics, I had a lot of questions about different types of installations, and Richard was very helpful and knowledgeable, but at no point did he give 'the hard sell'. This is what I like - no pressure selling. Anyway, fast forward to now (18th November 24) and we had finally settled on a battery storage system and inverter with no solar panels. The guys arrived promptly with all their equipment and made an immediate start. (not even a cuppa first). There were 3 lads that came, Paul, Jonathan, and Dylan, super friendly and polite, and always asking if I was happy with what they were doing and showing me what they were about to do before they did it. (Running wires, drilling holes etc). Shoes were always removed before entering and they cleaned up after them and left no mess. 👍. When the job was complete, they gave a full run through of how everything worked, and Richard helped with sorting out the Octopus Tariff. I would highly recommend these guys if you are thinking of solar panels or battery storage systems they are a great company to deal with.
There are Electricians, there are also Solar installers, THEN you have Blue Electrics. Been looking into solar batteries for a while and have had many firms giving the hard sell which tbh sends me the other way, i was recently given a heads up by another electrician about these. 1 thing led to another, and the job is done. From initial call with Richard right through to the instal with Jonny and Paul who are both so on point with their work there are not enough words to praise them with. (sorry can’t remember the other owners name) I was updated daily as to where we were with the process from G99 to instal and timescale etc just amazing. I have no hesitation other than to recommend these guys 110% and trust me I’m a fussy bloke. If you’re looking for solar and or solar batteries and are reading this, just get it done you won’t regret it. I am not paid for this review this is just honest findings from the work done. Team Blue Electrics keep doing what you’re doing many Thanks Jason Morgan
Fantastic company. Very efficient and friendly. The electricians were extremely knowledgeable and took time to talk me through the works being carried out. They installed a number of additional sockets and lights as well as changing our outdated and unsafe electric board. Minimal disruption and a fair price for the works completed. I'd recommend Blue Electrics to anyone looking for a reliable company. 5 star service!
Really helpful and very knowledgable. The staff were friendly and able to help meet all my requirements at a good price.
Excellent company, very friendly and cooperative, and always happy to answer questions and keep me informed at all stages. Electricians arrived promptly as arranged and went the extra mile to complete the job in one day. Super tidy job and all works well as expected. Would be pleased to use this company again as first choice.
Highly recommend this company. Very professional and efficient. Can't praise them enough.
I chose Blue Electric to install our Solar panels after a very professional presentation and quote at the front end, which flowed seamlessly through the installation process until completion. The whole thing was a pleasure and I would recommend Blue Electric to any potential investors. This is looking like one of our best ROI's to date. Michael J, Couser. Formagrind Ltd.
Fabulous service. Really responsive, friendly and very helpful. Got our solar inverter data connection up and running when it seemed no one else could help. Would definitely recommend! Thank you
I was looking for an EV charger installer in my area, I had a few quotes from some bigger well known brands and then I tried Blue Electrics. very good services and a competitive quote. Initial site visit was comprehensive and the install went without a hitch, despite the awful weather. I would not hesitate to recommend them. Keep up the good work.
Very happy with the service I received. A quick and polite site visit, followed by a clear, itemized quote and a prompt start date. Paul was on time, efficient and super tidy - I've not found any pvc cuts or mess, the guys even hoovered and wiped up after themselves. This was a single phase to 3-phase board upgrade, new 16mm SWA garage feed, sub-board and lights/sockets plus 6mm EV ultra charger cable all buried under patio drive blocks. Through no fault of their own the board upgrade caused problems that resulted in the guys staying until 2:30am to finish and make safe! Amazing service!!
Installation of EV charger. Brilliant communication, efficient and very competitive price. Absolutely outstanding service - would recommend without hesitation
Fantastic service. Rich and the team really looked after us, explained everything in great detail and reassured us throughout. They were extremely helpful and insightful when helping us choose the panels and inverter. Paul (who did the installation) was also faultless and the aftercare we have received was superb and we have been constantly kept informed and supported.
The best solar company in Swansea and west wales area. They have fitted our solar panels with professionalism and recently advised on a smart electricity tariff which is saving us a lot of money. They are without doubt a top class company , very knowledgable and I highly recommend their work.
The advice, support and service I received from Blue Electrics for my solar panel and battery installation was second to none. Richard was very knowledgeable and communication was superb be it via phone or email. The site assessment with Paul was very thorough where the design was adjusted slightly. After this I knew I was in safe hands. Post install Paul ran me through the whole system so I understood it and the required paperwork from Richard followed swiftly as did his help with changing my tariffs and getting an export MPAN number - this saved weeks of waiting! It’s been a month or so now and everything has run like clockwork and even on wet overcast days I’m surprised how much is being produced. Blue Electrics are a class leading example of how a market provider should operate - I cannot recommend highly enough!
Fantastic company! Recommended to me by my neighbour. I have had battery storage and additional solar panels installed. Richard and his team offer so much support with information and getting the very best of your installation. I had solar panels installed in 2015 with a different company and had very little information after installation and no support.Blue Electrics helped me with obtaining that additional information to get the very best of how my original panels installed are performing. I highly recommend Blue Electrics to anyone thinking of having solar installation. Thank you Blue Electrics!
We'd had a local solar installer who had not done the job they verbally quoted for (I wanted, and was promised, a system that would keep my power running in the event of a power cut), so I contacted Blue Electrics to ask if they would be able to fix this. Not only were they able to, but they are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about solar, and understand the SunSynk system thoroughly. Paul did a fantastic job, in the process of which he found problems with the work of the previous installer, at least one of which was effectively reducing the power available from the batteries we had. I got Blue Electrics to install another battery at the same time, and now I've got a system I can depend on to keep me self-sufficient (even without the grid if it drops out) for most of the year. Their work ethic is exemplary; they really believe in what they do and work hard to achieve it. If you're anywhere in the southern half of Wales these are THE people to go for, for solar. Don't even think about others. I wish I'd gone to Blue in the first place. Now you don't have to make the mistake I did.
Solar install was efficient from start to finish. Great job overall.
I totally recommend this company. They offer a very professional service, and are totally responsive to suggestions and queries. I would use them again without hesitation.
