Customers report that Solar Simplicity Limited installed solar panels, batteries and battery upgrades, with several saying the work was quick, professional and left clean and tidy. Many describe Curtis as knowledgeable, easy to talk to and willing to explain the system and options, and some mention his team as polite and helpful. One reviewer said an annual review felt more like a sales push for a battery, though they also reported the water booster was fixed after new batteries were fitted. A few reviewers mention minor problems or delays during installation, with most saying these were put right.
Had a fantastic experience using Solar Simplicity for my solar panels and batteries installation; went really smoothly, and customer service was excellent.
Solar Simplicity installed our system back in May. From the start it was easy.They explained how it would all be installed,where it would be installed and the timescale.All the workmen were polite and knowledgable.The job was done on time and without any problems. As a tradesman myself you often come across a problem,but i wasnt aware of any as the team just got on with everything. The panels are working great and at a very reasonable cost. Highly Recommend Phillip from Billericay May 26
Highly recommend solar simplicity fantastic service from start to finish from CURTIS and TEAM if you require solar check the company out installation done and sorted to high standard clean and tidy happy to recommend 10/10
Curtis recently upgraded our solar panels. Curtis was very engaging with us throughout the whole process.He was also extremely helpful when we had to deal with our FIT provider about the transition. Installation was very efficient and, although early days, seems to be a big improvement on the revenue generated.
I contacted Solar Simplicity Limited originally in regards to my Solax battery storage system which had been nothing but trouble from almost the day it was installed. Curtis came to see me and went through everything he could to see if a fix was possible, we agreed I would probably be better off having a new system installed. After inspecting the site Curtis worked out my needs from a battery storage system and quoted me a price including removing my old system. After discussions with my wife we decided to go ahead and a date was arranged for the work to be carried out. This was all done quickly and efficiently by Curtis and his team and the system is up and running perfectly, we did have a couple of teething problems but these were quickly rectified. So far we are delighted with our new Hanchu system and the fact we can add extra batteries if we need to and the twelve year warranty is fantastic. For a very competitive price and quality of work you can't go wrong by putting your trust in Solar Simplicity Limited
Had some interest in Solar Panels. Curtis contacted me and over long period of time he asked my thoughts but it was never hard sale. Eventually I went with it. The price was good. He took time to explain how the process worked and eventually job completed in time scale promised and my only regret is I didnt act much sooner. Easy to speak to, very efficient, so I would have no hesitation in recommending this company's services.
Had 21 solar panels installed very quick and professionally done it’s cut my bills in half very happy with solar simplicity highly recommend
Really pleased with my solar system and install from Solar Simplicity. Curtis was very knowledgeable and helped me get the best system for my house. The install was quick and very professional which was good as Octopus had said the property was too complicated for their installers and couldn’t proceed. In the current hot weather we are now paying nothing for electricity and sending up to 25kwh/day back to the grid which is amazing considering we have a dog grooming salon in the garden! Great price and service.
Got solar panels installed. Best decision ever using this company. Huge savings seeing all the benefits of selling back to the grid. Got 10 panels and the best inverter and battery kit. Super quick and professional. Thanks!
Came to do a annual review of my system, but felt only interested in selling me a battery, Curtis had a look at my system briefly, I mention that the water booster was not working, it turn out batteries needed, after changing the batteries it was working fine, so a positive for me.
Grate service very friendly and professional highly recommended
Earlier in the year (2026) I was contacted by Solar Simplicity, as I was interested in an Inspection and Maintenance report of my established solar thermal and solar PV system. In a speedy response, I was contacted/visited by Curtis (manager/owner of the company), who gave me a comprehensive view of their services, including costings. In due course, this assessment was followed up with a written quotation for the work I had requested. In addition to the Inspection service, I also took advantage of the competitive costing for enhancing my solar battery storage. Soon after agreeing the project work, Curtis quickly arranged the scaffolding requirement and the date for battery installation and solar system inspection. On the day, all the work was conducted in an efficient and professional way. Within the following week, separate, comprehensive reports were received relating to my solar PV system and my solar thermal system. I was very pleased with these outcomes. In due course, I received the formal registration documents for the enlarged battery storage. In summary, my experience of Solar Simplicity, as a company and the personnel involved, has been very positive and I have no reservations in recommending their services to others wanting a modern solar system.
Finally found a company who could supply me with extra battery storage and was very impressed with the whole reasonably priced process. The service attitude was excellent. Highly recommended.
I was looking for a local installer of solar panels and found solar simplicity. I am so pleased I chose this company as the whole system has proved invaluable. It was reasonably priced and the service was excellent. I am also happy to say that the after care service is very reliable. Its easy to get hold of someone . Also the online monitor used is very easy to understand. I would recommend this company.
These guys genuinely want to do a good job. Curtis has been trading a few years now and he is trying his utmost to provide fair pricing with a level good service. Couple of teething problems with the install but the main thing is he was able to get it rectified and made sure it was fully functional with the correct paper work issued soon after completion. I believe the company should be around for many years to come if he keeps up with this approach.
I had my solar system installed some time ago and was looking for a company to set it up as an uninterrupted power supply. Curtis and his team at Solar Simplicity were the most comprehensive, positive and very reasonably priced responder so we went for it. Thorough site visit to ascertain the project scope, parts ordered and goal achieved by one of their more Northern experts, Ilja. Curtis is not only the CEO but a very hands on and comfortingly capable gent that I had many conversations with over the course of our project, I can whole heartedly recommend him and his team for your solar needs, particularly, as I'm my case, for something a little bespoke that larger nationals couldn't be bothered to entertain. Hope to work with them again and get that beer we discussed. 🍻😉
I'm sorry wrong company
We spent a long time researching who to use for our solar installer. We are really pleased we chose Solar simplicity. Curtis was quick to respond, very professional and delivered on time. We would recommend Solar simplicity to our friends and family
Very good experience with these guys. Curtis was very well organised and we got a great installation at a really good price. Highly recommended.
Curtis and his team were fantastic from the start. Still in contact and hoping to get some more additions to the solar array from them down the line.
Just had a new Huawei battery system fitted to my 4kw solar system by Solarsimplicity. Jimmy the electrician who installed the new system is very knowledgeable on theses systems. Can also say that the back up service from the software team is also very good ,would fully recommend this company.
I have evaluated several companies for assistance with my solar project, and ultimately, I chose to collaborate with Curtis and Solar Simplicity. Curtis conducted an on-site survey without any upfront costs, providing us with an attractive quote based on the maximum capacity our roof could accommodate. His proposal suggested the highest number of panels compared to other companies that provided quotes, and he offered a very competitive price. I am extremely satisfied with the service Curtis provided. He is highly responsive and consistently answered my questions promptly throughout the process. Our installation took place in early June, and we received MCS approval in mid-September. Even after the installation, Curtis remained responsive to my inquiries. For example, he assisted me in reconfiguring the inverter to maximize the benefits of battery charging during off-peak hours. Based on my experience, I wholeheartedly recommend Curtis to anyone considering the installation of solar panels. His expertise, responsiveness, and commitment to customer satisfaction make him an excellent choice for such projects.
Wonderful service from Curtis and his team in solving a problem nobody else wanted to touch!
Solar Simplicity done a very good job of putting panels on my garage, adding them to the ones on the house roof and connecting to the inverter. I would use Solar Simplicity again.
After looking at several options and quotes I decided to go with Solar Simplicity for my ground solar panels. The date for the installation was quickly organised and Curtis arrived on time. A discussion ensued about what the plan of work was. It turned out to take longer than expected but everyone remained in good spirits and I was kept informed all the time. I would recommend Curtis and his Team. They were courteous and friendly and got the job done. I am delighted with how it all turned out.
If you are planning to get Solar panels with a battery system or just as a stand alone, will highly recommend Solar simplicity. Curtis is a dedicated individual who will take all the time you need to go through the system, answer all your questions and explain things without making it sound too complicated. All the options were detailed out to me, I went back with some mods which was added into the system and nothing was ever a big bother for Curtis and his team. The install date was set, scaffolding went up as planned, small hitch on the install day, but it was quickly sorted and 2 days later we were powering the house with free electrons from the sun. Had a problem with the roof where a tile got moved, rather than botch it up as we had already paid by then, he arranged for a roofer to come round who did a good repair and also some other remedial work which needed doing! I have gone back to Curtis to add another battery for which he has again given me a loyalty discount which is highly commendable. So if you are in Essex and looking for solar panel installation, go ahead and contact Curtis- he will look after you.
After looking at over 4 Solar companies with both online and face to face discussions we chose to go with Curtis and his Solar Simplicity team based on his enthusiasm for Solar Power, the value of his product and his willingness to discuss various options to meet our requirements. We have not been disappointed and even during the shorter late December and early January days we have seen benefits from our Solar Panels. I have no hesitation in recommending Curtis if you are considering having Solar Panels installed.
Excellent service, Curtis designed a large battery system to compensate for our small roof space. All round professional install with the batteries & inverter in their own cabinets. Would definitely recommend the company.
Having had panels installed by another company who were unable to add a battery to the system, Solar Simplicity were able to take on the task quickly and efficiently, adapting and adding to the original system, so that it is now complete. The engineers were professional and completed all work to a very high standard (A special mention for Owen's excellent ducting) in a house which made the task more complex than perhaps they were expecting. Curtis was always clear and concise in his communications and kept me informed as to the progress of the job. I'm very happy with the system I now have and am glad to have found Solar Simplicity to complete it.
We recently purchased an EV and it made perfect sense to then purchase a Givenergy all in one system to make the most of our providers cheap rate night tariffs. I contacted Solar simplified and Curtis and the team made the whole possess painless. The installation team arrived on the agreed date and were very professional in the installation and the commissioning of our system. I would like to thank the team for all there help through this process and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them on.
Found Curtis to be very knowledgeable in regards to solar energy equipment and installations and his pricing to be very competitive. He was very quick to respond to any queries and potential issues I had. Equipment installation was done by profession installers and was completed on schedule. I have no hesitation in recommending Solar Simplicity.
I wanted to add additional panels to my system and after calling around, Curtis was able to fit me into his schedule under short notice. The team came around and installed my panels. They were very professional and the job and place was left neat and tidy. I highly recommend their service and would gladly use them again. Thank you Curtis for such a wonderful installation process and great banter.
Great team of installers who removed my old panels, replaced with the latest panels and also added the wiring so I could use my old panels as well. Fantastic neat installation in the garage. The addition of batteries has taken my system to the next level. Thanks to all at Solar Simplicity.
A even good service from the company and good people thank you 😊
We did the proper multiple quotes thing and the crucial differences for me were the clear itemised quote, in person survey, and good communication. Really pleased with the choice we made, Curtis took the time to understand our pattern of use and future plans rather than just a cookie cutter approach. Really happy with the install speed and quality, the guys were excellent. Scaffolding was up only as long as needed, panels and cabling neatly fitted and working, made sure we had the app set up and connected. Couldn’t ask for better, would definitely recommend. We’re not the easiest house (1903 Edwardian semi) so solid walls etc. but the team took it in their stride. Excellent.
Curtis and team was respectful of the house when working inside, if I asked Curtis for something to be done a particular way (Like cable runs) it was never a problem. Pleased with the way the system is working.
Absolutely excellent. 20kwh Battery storage added to our existing Solar array setup. Reasonably priced, fastest installation time & professional all the way. Installed earlier than forecast & to a very tidy standard. Working 100% to expectations & delighted with the result.
Excellent service, 20kwh battery storage added to our existing solar array setup. Curtis gave a good quote & managed to supply & fit faster than any other company I could find in Kent. System delivering exactly as I hoped & a good clean/neat install. Very easy from start through to completion. Highly recommended
Curtis and his team provided an excellent service at a competitive price. The solar system is good quality kit and performs as advertised. We had a few unavoidable snags along the way, but still 5 stars due to the customer service provided to resolve. Would recommend.
Efficient, professional install from Curtis and his team. Highly recommended.
Hi all. Curtis completed my solar panels installation in my home over 6 months ago. So far so good 🙂. The most important question is if it works and if it actually save the money. The answer is YES YES YES. I really recommend Panels and Battery together. It will help save even more money.
Customer service was good, delivery team even helped me tidy up the garage
We wanted 16 panels installed ground mounted in our garden, and lots of companies wouldn’t take the job, but after a call with Curtis, he got us booked in and the customer service couldn’t have been better.
Installed and commissioned on time, engineers seemed experienced and competent. Good job, would highly recommend.
Installation: Full domestic solar + battery. Had three quotes from different companies, and I initially discounted SS because I didn't hear back from them for a few days. But then Curtis sent down a detailed comprehensive 28 page quote, so I thought " OK, back in the running". Long story short - rejected other quotes, one too expensive, one quote duration ridiculously short. After some delays for procurement, ( no fault of SS), scaffolding/installation went extremely smoothly, really happy with system - no hesitation recommending Curtis and SS; pleasure to deal with.
Sorted out solar for my campervan curtis was spot on
Called solar simplicity this Wednesday as my Nan needed a loft conversion done they took the panels down today and are now storing them. Great affordable service and they was very easy to deal with.
Curtis was honest and straightforward to deal with from the start. There were minor delays with the installation due to equipment shortages but we now have a fully functioning system that is exceeding our expectations. The installation team were neat and efficient and the scaffold came down promptly. We're delighted and I'm pleased I put my faith in this company.
The team installed new pylon tech cell. Was an excellent service and process. My mind was at ease with the information given to me. Would definitely recommend them.
I had sola panels fitted with this company , they were nothing but helpful from start to finish , very happy and I highly recommend
Great company good reliable service couldnt ask for better
Great team and great customer service, Would highly recommend the Solar Simplicity limited team as left me a very happy customer indeed - Very informative, polite and hard working with the highest quality.
Solar simplicity were great, the installers didn't leave any mess and were polite on the day of installation. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family. My mum is next to get an estimate. Thank you
