People who used Skylar Solar describe friendly, helpful staff and a neat, tidy installation, with several saying the panels and batteries are working well and that their questions were answered clearly. Several also report that the team dealt with surveys, scaffolding, installation and paperwork, and that aftercare support was helpful. One person said a salesperson tried to discredit another installer and quoted several thousand pounds more; others described rude or pushy sales calls, with one saying communication dropped after a deposit and another saying they were ghosted. One person said a recalled inverter was left switched off, causing lost production, and that Skylar Solar refused compensation; another said warranty faults were not fixed and an installation was left messy. One person said scaffolding was removed in two visits; another reported litter and cable offcuts, an unsealed hole and damage to a windowsill or vent, and others mention minor mess left after scaffolding.

I spent a long time researching for the best companies to do the Solar and battery storage on our property, After shortlisting 3 Skylar for me was the standout and they didn’t disappoint, we had one major Unforeseen obstacle during the installation but it never phased them at all they just got on with it, also, I must say all the guys were a pleasure to have around, So I can 100% recommend Skylar to anyone Looking to have Solar and batteries installed, they really know their stuff.

Everything went like clockwork… scaffold up, parts delivered, electrician and installers arrived, all done in 2 days, scaffold back down … such friendly guys, they enjoyed our two maltipoo puppies !

Fantastic service from start to finish! They were also very responsive and happy to answer all my questions no matter how trivial it was. I am grateful that I found them via Gary Does Solar on Youtube. Full install was finished in a day and within 3 days I had my export MPAN. Thank you Skylar Solar!

I recently had an installation of solar and battery completed by Skylar. I’d got quite a few quotes before I was willing to take the plunge and in the end I went for Skylar because they were a local brand, had been really helpful with talking through the pros and cons of different options, and seemed upfront with the challenges I might have with trying to get as many panels on as possible. Sure they were selling me a system but I felt like they were frank with me when it wasn’t going to work. Barrie was brilliant from their sales team, and Harry and James who came around to fit the system were lovely guys who did everything they could to make sure the installation went well. We did have a hiccup with the initial survey where we were told our Gateway could be fitted somewhere it couldn’t which was obviously annoying on install day. That being said, Harry was really professional and sorted this out for us, turning into a landscaper for an extra half a day to lay armoured cable under our front path. Likewise, James made sure to keep us updated about any problems roofing-wise and was really efficient with how he installed the panels. I do think communication with the admin team and the scaffolders could be improved as we ended up with the scaffolding being removed in 2 separate sessions. This seemed to mostly be down to the delays from our DNO awarding our G99 application, which meant that our original install date was cancelled and then rebooked at the last minute when the form did come through. As a result our date for the scaffolding to come down wasn’t rebooked. This was a minor inconvenience but it was an annoying in an otherwise great installation experience. I’d go with Skylar again if I needed this kind of work doing again. It was high quality and is already saving me money and electricity.

The whole team from Skylar were brilliant, from the initial planning with Harry, arranging installation dates including paperwork with Tia & Payton and getting the system installed by James, Rob, Ant & Eric who were thorough, very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had.
