Reviewers of B&R Solar Services Ltd frequently describe clear communication and polite, tidy teams, including with solar panel, battery and EV charger installations. Several reviewers report that James explained options fully and gave advice on suitable systems. One reviewer says the price was not the cheapest but the work was high quality. Another reviewer reports that a small issue with a solar app and an EV charger was resolved quickly.
James helped us investigate our totally dead inverter. He spoke to the manufacturer for us and managed to get them to send out a replacement under warranty, which he came back and installed once it had arrived. No doubt saved us a lot of money - highly recommended and we will be using them again for any solar work we have done in the future.
James and his team did an excellant job for us replacing all our solar panels and inverter along with bird proof gaurding. I would thoroughly recommend them.
Would highly recommend James and the team at B&R solar. We got solar PV installed with a Sigenergy gateway and battery system and an EV charger. The pricing is competitive and the system has been running flawlessly a few weeks now and we've barely used any energy from the grid since it's been running. James was fantastic through the whole process. He explained our options fully and answered all our questions when designing the system. He replied promptly to communications throughout, and went above and beyond throughout the whole installation process. It was not a straight forward job- since our house was on a looped supply which created delays and set backs (none of which were due to to B&R) yet James and the team provided reassurance and guidance throughout to help us and get the install done. The whole team are friendly and trustworthy. All work was completed to extremely high standards, with lots of care for the house too. Overall we are so pleased we decided to go with B&R solar and would definitely use them again in future.
Explained all the work involved in getting our solar system back up and running. communication throughout was excellent. The team were polite respectful and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.
Professional from initial quotation through to completion of the installation. Punctual, informative and outstanding service. Would have no hesitation to recommend James and his team. Thank you all so much
We pleased to say that we engaged the services of B&R Solar Services Ltd who installed 12 Solar PV panels, a Tesla Powerwall 3 and Tesla battery. A faultless service and installation which is now delivering far beyond our expectations.
Fitted my charger while I was at work, no need for anyone to be home. Great service.
A fantastic team who completed our solar install. Property assessment was good and they listened well. Recommendations were very fair and unpressured. Presence onsite was exemplary, working well on some of the hottest days of the year. Very pleased with their communications and work.
From coming out to give advice and information on what was the best system for my needs James and team have been nothing short of first class. Excellent knowledge of best fit for your home and very clean and tidy workers. Everything was done super quickly and left really tidy and communication was fantastic throughout. Would recommend highly
The team were really helpful with all aspects of our installation. From application to National Grid, to the removal of the old EV charger and installation of the new one. The team who did the installation were really polite, tidy and answered any questions I had. Would recommend to everyone. Thanks a lot
James and the B&R team provided a superb service for the installation of Tesla Battery and Solar panels - working around our requirements for location of the equipment and cable routing. What is never obvious is that Octopus will only offer a standard non tailored solution - whereas James came out - reviewed our requirements, assisted with the scaffolding implementation, included the all important anti bird protection, provided guidance on the panels allowing us to increase the count whilst on site and also add the Tesla Expansion pack. This was all completed in 5 days from start to finish - including returning the site back to normal and scaffolding removed. I couldn't ask for more.
James and the team at B&R Solar Services are superb. James was instrumental in helping us when we chose to add Solar panels to our office office. From the moment we pushed the button James and his team worked effectively in a live office environment and the installation was to a very high standard. After care and advice has always been dealt with in a timely manner. I would recommend James and his team to anyone.
Efficient and reliable company from day of quoting to day of installation. Can't recommend them highly enough, so helpful guiding us through the process from planning to installation and setting up the app to make things work and guidance with energy tariffs to make the most of the solar power and battery storage.
Had a large array installed on a complicated site, including ecological considerations. Team were friendly and efficient, always happy to discuss options and explain. Unexpected issues were worked through, with the team even investigating better solutions overnight. The site was kept tidy and organised throughout the work. Will happily use again for any future works.
I couldn’t be happier with the solar and battery installation from James at B&R Solar. From the very beginning, their professionalism stood out—they provided clear, detailed figures upfront, so I knew exactly what to expect before any work even started. That level of transparency made the whole process feel smooth and stress-free. The installation itself was flawless. The team worked efficiently, paid attention to every detail, and left everything incredibly clean and tidy—honestly, you’d hardly know they’d been there apart from the fantastic new system in place. If you’re considering solar, I’d highly recommend B&R Solar. Reliable, precise, and genuinely committed to delivering top-quality work.
Attended as agreed and sorted my issues quickly and with no fuss. James is very knowledgeable about all things solar and I would not hesitate to recommend James and B&R solar.
Fantastic company! Great communication from initial contact through to completion. Hard working team who cracked on with no complaints (even during some terrible weather). Very much recommended!!
I received excellent advice, presented in a friendly and upbeat manner, every step of the way. I would happily give this experience a full 5-star rating from start to finish!
Great install and great price really happy
B&R Solar Services were punctual and polite. They did an excellent job of installing a consumer unit, and they checked all electrical systems throughout the house. I would highly recommend this company.
After having shopped around and had various advise and different quotes, I found James' honesty and integrity to be paramount in my making a decision to go with B&R. James is an expert in his field and gives guidance which clearly is the best thing for his customer. B&R initially installed an EV charger. The installers were respectful and tidy and very efficient. They spent time carefully considering the cleanest cable runs meaning they were not visible through the house. Disruption and post install patching was left to a minimum. The EV charger was configured and works well. I also had B&R come back to fit solar panels. Since this day we have had no need to draw electricity from the grid. James advice and knowledge is clearly demonstrated by this. Again, the install was relatively disruption free, and the cable runs were well thought out so as to be as tidy as possible. Other than a few boxes, which I'd expect, there was no mess The hardware is great and works exactly how i would expect, with simple monitoring via mobile apps. James installed a LAN patch panel in my wall to link the invertor to my internet. Again a clean finish, and a reduction of potential issues caused by transmitting data over a wi-fi network. James came back and fully integrated by EV charger to the panels, which works flawlessly. It was a brand new model EV charger but James was super efficient getting all working despite having never configured one before. Really happy with the service overall, and would recommend to friends/family in the future
Brilliant work done again thank you so much well recommended Mr carlisle
I contact James at B&R solar services as we had solar fitted 10 years ago and didn't realise how it worked in respect to receiving payments from the National grid. James was amazing and could not help enough. He serviced the system and contacted the national grid as it was not connected. All i can say is "wow". He went above and beyond and at a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend this company. Faultless throughout the whole process.
Very good experience the job was quite fluid from my perspective, as I was not exactly sure what was possible and what equipment was needed. The guys who did the job could not have been more helpful with both advice and options. The job exceeded my expectations!
James was very comprehensive when exploring the equipment options before the works. We shopped around and found that the kit and installation price quoted by BR Solar was very reasonable for the kit we selected. During the installation they were very professional and thorough, even going out of their way of replacing any broken tiles on our roof before installing the panels on top of it. Overall very satisfied.
Replaced our Solar Panel Inverter and main consumer unit. Professional job and really friendly team. I would recommend them. Thanks!
After moving into an 80yo bungalow we found our electrics needed some serious attention. The lads at B&R Solar sorted us out in no time. Upgrading the consumer unit, adding in extra sockets, running power for an electric shower, upgraded lighting circuits and certification on everything we're now on the right track to get everything updated. Very reasonably priced and hard workers. It's a great team and I'll use them again and again.
James’s team were quick and efficient. They explained all the works really well and would highly recommend.
This is the third time I have used B&R Solar Services for my electrical work, I can’t recommend them highly enough, the staff are all very professional and the price is very competitive. My mum recently had a flood and electrical work was required for her to be able to return home, I contacted James and he responded very quickly and arranged for someone to go out to carry out a full inspection of her house, he sent me a quote of the work required and a date to carry out this work was booked, on the day the work was completed without any problems. The whole process from start to finish was very professional and hassle free, I would definitely recommend this company.
Had James and team install PV solar and battery recently and can 100% recommend. From survey to install attention to detail was excellent and we are very happy with the looks on roof to the efficiency of the system. 5*
Inverter replaced on solar system .Arrived on time worked efficiently as a team profesionnaly installed
We used B&R for various electrical works around our property, including kitchen rewire. I would highly recommend the team at B&R, they were timely and professional with the work completed.
Impromptu purchase of EV, never thought about charger requirement at home, never thought we would have an EV, got more and more confused by the charger options available. Messaged James who we have used before, came back with a solution pretty quickly, a few days later the new Zappi was fitted. Brilliant advice and service from James and the guys at B&R whom have been first class, for personal and our business requirements.
These guys did a great job installing solar panels on my slate roof. The price was very reasonable as others were not able to fit them to slate without extra costs. We also had two batteries neatly installed Pleasure to have them in my home.
Great communication turned up on time and work carried out tidy and excellent
Excellent service from B&R Solar Services the guys arrived on time and made a very neat job of installing an EV charger. Gave guidance on its operation and how to set up for optimum charging. The price was as quoted. I would recommend this company.
Communication before and during the appointment was helpful and professional. The electricians arrived exactly at the time they said they would and were very considerate about alerting us when the power would be off and making sure they had it turned back on when they went to lunch to have the least impact on us working from home. The quality of the work seems excellent, and we are very pleased with our new electric car charger and CU. Would highly recommend B&R.
Following a battery failure on my solar system I discovered that the company who installed it had disappeared. I contacted the equipment manufacturer (SolaX) who agreed to send a replacement unit and advised of some local SolaX system installers. I contacted B&R Solar Services who were really helpful and reassuring. They came to install the replacement battery once it had arrived and had our system back up and running very promptly. I can thoroughly recommend James and his team - they all did a great job.
I had a solar PV and battery system fitted 4 years ago by a national company. One of the batteries had developed a fault and the manufactur supplied a replacement one but left it to me to have it fitted. I found B&R Solar as a local company and I'm really pleased I did. James came to my property just two days after my initial contact. He arrived on time and carried out the swapping of the batteries and recomissioning of the system very efficiently and explained to me what he was doing. I found James and his office very professional and would have no hesitation in using B&R again for any electrical work. Highly recommend.
Best in the business would highly recommend
James and his partner do a fantastic job fitting the EV charger turned up on time, completed the job to a excellent standard left no mess can't ask for more, highly recommend, many thanks....
We had a new CU unit and EV charger fitted by B&R Solar Services Ltd. Outstanding from start to finish. Fantastic communication, next level work ethic and knowledge and very competitively priced. Would highly recommend. I will be using these for all my fore coming jobs. Brilliant ⭐️
James and the team at B&R Solar supplied and fitted a Giv Energy PV system with 14 solar panels at my property. From quote to fit they did a great job and were reasonably priced. James coordinated all the work and commissioned the system as well as relocating and supplying a new consumer unit and fitting boards lighting and smoke alarms in the loft where the solar unit was fitted. Great service great communication great price and a decent solar system which is up and running no issues. Highly recommend B&R Solar.
B&R Solar Services came out to our site and designed and created a bespoke system that would work for our cricket club. Excellent communication from them throughout and we look forward to seeing the benefits of solar power.
Not the cheapest,but a high quality job - isn't that's what's required with electrical work?
Had an EV charger installed and everything was spot on. Really quick to get me in, super tidy work, checked in with me after to make sure I was all happy with it. Really recommend if you're looking for any electrical work!
Came to help me at very short notice Tony and the young lad arrived at 8.15 and worked hard all day keeping me in touch with any changes that were needed. Tony really helped with his advice and putting things were I wanted ... great job..thank you
very professional job done by the two electritions
Solar installation is 2nd big job James and the team have for me in the last two years and I couldn’t be more delighted with the quality and professionalism delivered by B&R. Great quality work, on time and very clean and tidy, I would highly recommend James and B&R electrical.
James and his team have worked on a number of projects for my company in the last 12 months and every time done a fantastic job. Projects done flawlessly include : 6 Bed HMO, 3 Bed Bungalow, Ground floor full refurb and board change.
Top quality professional service from planning to installation. James and Amber kept me informed all the way through the process of Solar PV. The 6kw system is delivering great numbers, exceeding my expectations. Well done to James, Amber and the team.
Professional, friendly and quality service and product.
James installed full solar system with two batteries and integrated this with our existing Ev charger. Work completed to a high standard, very neat and tidy, would recommend.
Just had 18 Solar panels, inverter and two batteries installed by James and team. Communications prior to installation have been excellent with all queries answered promptly. Installation date went well with the team arriving when expected. Minimum mess made, lads polite and professional. Highly pleased so far especially as the sun has been shining making us ‘free’ electricity!
I had Solar panels and a battery pack fitted to my property, from the quote to the finished job i found the company efficient, friendly and arrived when they said they would. highly recommended.
Great service, polite and delivered on time. All apps and system explained in simple but detailed manner. Alan
I contacted B&R Solar and spoke to Amber in the office. She was very friendly and helpful. James came out and gave me some great advice and provided a detailed quote. They arrived when they said they would. Did a great job installing our panels and equipment. Left everywhere clean and tidy. We shall be using them again for our new EV charger.
Great service from James at B&R, he arrived when he arranged to, explained the process clearly and worked hard and professionally. The standard of the work was high and communication with Amber at the office was always friendly and prompt. There was a minor issue with the Solar system's 'App' and also a problem with my EV charger after the system's install, but these were resolved quickly. We are very pleased with the end result and would recommend B&R.
Had two separate rounds of jobs completed by James and Scott. Absolutely fantastic work by both of them, when my "interesting house" has fought them every step of the way. Couldn't rate these guys highly enough, really know their stuff, and it's good quality, tidy looking work they leave behind that you know will last for years to come. Happy to recommend these to friends and family that need electrical work doing.
Had a EV charger fitted, very competitively prices. Fitted within 1 week. Didn’t leave until app was up and working. Would highly recommend
James and Scott turned up expecting a fairly simple new boiler wiring setup, unfortunately as it turned out they had to run new wiring across as well as fitting a new wiring centre. Despite these hurdles, they still stayed very professional, and got the job done, tidied up after themselves. Would definitely recommend and thinking of using them for some future works I've been advised needs doing.
Really great service. Have used B and R twice for electric car charger and electrics installed in a detached garage. Great service from really nice people
James & Scott turned up on time and got to quick work. The install was done in no time and they were very professional, hoovered up the dust and got the unit set up for us. I would recommend them to anyone for an electric vehicle charger installation.
Extremely pleased with the service from this company, Amber provided excellent communications prior to the work and sorted out the OLEV grant for us. James turned up exactly on time, did a fantastic job, cleared up after themselves and were polite and professional throughout. Recommended them 100% and wouldn't hesitate to use again
Excellent service, a tidy installation and Amber talked us through the nightmare grant application. £200 cheaper than Octopus and that's before Octopus discover "additional costs"
Had these guys out to do a full inspection and test. They text me with a time,turned up when they said they would. Did what they had to do and after finding a few faults gave me a quote to remedy the situation. After agreeing on a price the turned up again when they said they would did the job for the agreed price and cleaned up and left the house in a good clean condition as if they had never been. Excellent experience would recommend them to everybody 👍
B&R Electrics installed an electric car charger at our home. The service from the beginning to end was excellent, Amber kept us updated each step of the process and James did a very neat job of the installation. We would happily recommend them. Thanks!
James came to do some work on our house. He installed two circuit boards and replaced light fittings upstairs. Very thorough, and made sure everything was clean and tidy when he left. We are having him back for more work around the house. Lovely bloke and makes sure every effort is made to make sure things are right!
Great 5 star service from B and R. They fitted additional floodlighting and PIR controlled lighting internally and externally at our warehouse. All things undertaken at a good price and very reliable. Thoroughly recommended.
Great friendly service, very clean working, good value and reliable will be using again
Exceptional service and very professional. James upgraded our old consumer unit and installed down lights throught out hallway and utility. Very high standard of work, highly recommend him for any electrical work you require carrying out. 5*.
James installed several sockets in my kitchen and also one in my bedroom. He has always done excellent work, as previously he has done most of the electrical work within my property. Through conversations with his partner, he turned up early, so I could get to work on time, he also took in a delivery, which I was very grateful for. He is extremely professional, provides great prices and I would recommend him to anyone who needed any electrical work. Thank you again and any work I need in the future, I will certainly go to James.
First class service. Amber was very helpful over the phone when I needed a quote asap, and James did a great job installing new down lights and smoke alarms, and upgrading consumer box. Very professional, clean and tidy, and Covid safe. Highly recommended.
Very happy with the work completed at my home to install new lights and replace briken sockets. Professional and responsive service from James and Amber since my initial enquiry and at a reasonable cost too ! I would recommend them and will be using them again. Thank you 😁
Amber and James have a personal and friendly approach, helping you to feel comfortable with using their service but are also professional and honest so you can feel confident in choosing them. I've had work done on two seperate occasions now and finding it to be good quality, done quickly without fuss and reasonably priced, I would definitely go back to them for future work. They work with you to get exactly what you want. If it turns out to be different from the original quote, the price is adjusted accordingly, no messing. And no extra costs you don't feel you should be paying. On one of the occasions James had to come back out to sort one small thing on work he'd already done which I thought was handled extremely well. Very satisfied with B&R Electrics!
James and Amber are a great team. Super friendly and helpful, they'll help you in any way they can and at a really good price. Very professional and top quality service.
James and his team recently carried out a full rewire and I was really impressed with the fantastic workmanship. The work was to an incredibly high standard, and James made some really good advice about where to put sockets, light switches to make it really practical. Also, for a really reasonable price. Couldn't recommend enough.
Great service and a highly competitive price.
James was very reliable, turned up on time, carried out the job quickly and effectively. I would defiantly recommend James for any electrical work.
Would highly recommend James. Completed the job quickly for a very reasonable fee. Will definitely use him again for any electrical needs.
Very quick and efficient at reasonable prices, highly recommend
Recently had James to install a new home alarm system. The job was completed to a time frame to suit me. The alarm is top notch and James even demonstrated how to use all the features and the app! Not the first time I’ve used James and won’t be the last. Can’t recommend him highly enough.
James & Hayden from B&R Electrics provided a professional and thorough service.They were knowledgable, friendly and efficient I can highly recommend them.
We are so pleased with the quality and professionalism showed by B&R I would not have any problems recommending them to anybody I know or don't. Thank you so so much and I hope within the near future to be asking assistance with regards to alarms etc.,
Excellent work start to finish,would recommend these highly
Highly recommend. Used this company for an emergency at a rented property. Came out virtually straight away and a top notch job at a very reasonable price.
Excellent, efficient and very amenable
James visited and gave invaluable advice about the work I was asking to be done. He returned promptly on the day agreed, doing an excellent job of taking power and light to our garage and wiring in a new oven, hob and oven hood. I would recommend considering him for any electrical work.
Used b&r electrics for some domestic electrical work. Couldn't have been happier with the work that was completed. I don't often leave reviews but felt that the excellent service and work undertaken provided by the company was worth the mention. Would definitely recommend and use again.
Fast, efficient service. Took pride in the quality of work undertaken. Would definitely recommend.
I used this company to carry out a full rewire in a rental property. The work was carried out promptly and efficiently with minimum disruption. Not only was the work carried out to a very high standard, but they even cleaned up after themselves. They were very accommadating working around both my commitments and those of my tennants. All in all, a first class job.
