All the team at Glowsolar have been professional, knowledgeable, approachable, punctual, friendly and tidy workers. We have had solar panels and batteries installed and I would not hesitate to recommend Glowsolar. I believe in supporting local companies especially when they are good! The panels and batteries have been game changers especially as we have an ASHP.
I would have no hesitation in recommending the team at Glowsolar. From Keir who came and listened and explained what was possible without ever pressurising me, to Alice's patience, knowledge and efficiency in the office, to the installation team who were professional and helpful throughout, everyone was first class. It's early days, but I am delighted with my solar panels and batteries. Thank you to you all!
I cannot adequately express how good this company is. It is a daunting task looking into which company to go for and what set up is right for you. Keir knows his stuff and listened to what i wanted and suggested the right system for us. All summer long we have been running on pure sunshine. There is so much misinformation out there and so many out of date views from people who even work in the industry! I'm so glad i got a quote from this company. It wasn't the cheapest quote I got, but if you pay peanuts you get...your house potentially burning down from shoddy installation. Highly recommend. Don't look anywhere else!
Excellent service from Kier, Alice and staff. Very happy that I chose Glowsolar. Recommend if you want a quality job from a reliable local company.
Small well-established focused team. Excellent.
Could not recommend glow more highly. Everyone we dealt with was professional, thoughtful and helpful. They helped me work out exactly what was right for me, and they did a superb job installing it all.
We had great service from Alice and Kier. Great communication from Alice and rapid fitting by Kier and his team. Would highly recommend GlowSolar. They really know their stuff!
Great experience with Glow Solar! I’ve been meaning to leave a review for Keir and Alice at Glow Solar because they were both brilliant throughout our solar and battery install. Keir was really helpful at the start and didn't give us any of the usual sales talk, just honest advice on what would actually work for our house. Alice was also a massive help behind the scenes. She kept us updated on all the dates and sorted the paperwork so we didn't have to worry about it. The guys who did the fitting were quick and tidy, and the battery has been a total game changer for our bills already. If you're looking for a decent solar company that actually does what they say they're going to do, definitely give them a shout.
Excellent company and excellent service. Alice and Keir were great, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and responsive - nothing was too much trouble. Very happy to recommend.
Exemplary service all the way through. Keir was very clear in his explanation of the system and the communication from Alice, behind the scenes, was excellent. All the team arrived exactly when they said they would and we were delighted with everything, from the scaffolding team to Keith and Medi who installed the panels and to Dan who undertook all of the electrics. Their work was excellent throughout and they all took great care to ensure that everything was done to the highest possible standard. It was great to use a local company and we cannot recommend Glowsolar highly enough. They were a pleasure to do business with. All we need now is more sunshine!
Five star customer service from start to finish, comprehensive (yet understandable) explanation of how it would all work from Keir, excellent service from Alice providing concise information and rapid and helpful responses to emails. The fitting team of Dan, Medi & Alex were not only professional and hard working but also a really neat and tidy workforce. It was a pleasure to have them on site and great to see the care they took with their work and with our property. Enjoying the peace of mind it gives having our own electricity source from solar. Glowsolar really is an outstanding company and cannot recommend them highly enough.
The best company I have ever worked with in any capacity and any industry. They were informative, professional, respectful, and a joy to work with. Alice was exceptional in answering all my varied enquiries quickly and thoroughly. Keir and his team were thoughtful and respectful on site and completed all work just when they said they would. Very happy!
Outstanding company, cannot recommend highly enough. Professional, hard working, excellent communication - we knew exactly what was happening, when, time and dates. Tidy, neat job with the solar panels, bird proofing and electrics- Tesla battery etc in garage. This company take pride in their work, local business, no subcontractors. We had great team from Alice behind the scenes, emailing what we wanted, they even price matched one of the national companies, which we were so happy with, as we wanted to use local company. Scaffolding up on our bungalow when they booked for, seamless service throughout, even when Alice on holiday. Our fabulous team were Dan, Keith, Alex and Keir. Respectful to us and our property. No more worrying about power cuts, loving the solar it generates. Would give more stars if could! Thank-you so much Glowsolar.
We recently had solar panels installed by Glowsolar and I have to say it was a very pleasant experience. They were professional and quick and everyone was very friendly and helpful, would definitely recommend them
Glowsolar fitted 10 integrated solar panels on each side of my roof. The project included scaffolding, replacing the gable ends barge boards, and new tiling around the panels. Alice did a great job of coordinating the whole project. Keir was very good to deal with, and he and his team did a great job with the panel installation. Glowsolar provide all documentation, and helped me to set up an export tariff with Octopus. I am exporting to the grid at currently 15p/unit, and import when necessary at currently 26.5 p/unit. Quite apart from the environmental benefits, it's a financial no-brainer to include integrated panels when replacing a roof, due to VAT and tile savings.
Excellent. At the enquiry stage, extremely helpful in making good choices regarding what options there were. Always felt like their aim was to get the best choice, rather than trying up-sell. Installation team were great and did a top job. System seems to be doing everything expect and promised and more. Thanks!
Delighted with Glowsolar. We found all aspects of this company excellent. They talked us through each procedure and we’re very patient with our elderly understanding and comprehension of the procedures. The installation went smoothly with the personnel being very professional. We feel we have got excellent value for money.I would highly recommend this company.
Glowsolar deserve their '5 star' rating. Having been 'burnt' with a solar company before, we were jaded. Keir from Glowsolar presented at a local seminar. Without any hard sell, he did a site survey of our current system, and then advised on how we could be expand it to best effect. We now have 19kw system and a 28kw Tesla 3 powerwall battery setup - and the whole process has been seamless. Great communication throughout - be that from Keir, his team, or Alice in the office. A top example of proper quality - workmanship and service at a really pragmatic and realistic price. If you want solar and work or live in Cumbria/ Lancs/ North Yorkshire, then just go straight to Glowsolar; you wont be disappointed.
Great service from Glowsolar. Friendly professional staff and a really neat installation in our limited space. It is early days yet but it is already producing worthwhile amounts of electricity (in November- which I didn't expect). Cant wait to see what it does in summer (if we get one).
An excellent company to deal with. No hard sell, professional, great communication, willing to work round other trades & unfazed by putting a system in, in a remote location. We highly recommend this company.
Would recommend. Great comms from Alice and excellent professional advice and installation. System works well and has surpassed my expectations.
A glowing reference!
GlowSolar were fantastic from start to finish! Thanks Keir and the team for all your hard work!
We wanted batteries fitted to enhance an existing solar installation. GlowSolar were very helpful, with appointments quickly set up and kept to and good advice. The battery availability allowed the work to be carried out more quickly than we hoped and all work has been carried out, in a friendly and efficient manner, exactly as scheduled with great communication from Alice keeping the process smooth. We are delighted with the end result.
Highly recommended. I had been considering solar for some time and unsure of the best solution. After talking through with Keir it was easy to understand what system set-up I wanted to have. The design was fine tuned working with Alice, adding more panels and the pricing was competitive so the system was ordered. The complete Install was carried out very smoothly and the whole team are so easy to work with. The finished system was neatly done and up and running very quickly and I am really happy with the performance of the system. Thank you Glowsolar.
Totally satisfied with everything. Good advice, no pushy sales tactics, prompt communication and installation, pleasant and tidy staff, and a great product. Would highly recommend. (Oops - Just realised I posted this on my work account - it was actually a private installation on my house)
Outstanding service from start to finish. After having months of issues with my original installer trying to sort a repair/replacement under my original extended warranty with them only to have them go into administration right before they were due to replace/repair my faulty inverter I was in need of a new installer to get me up and running again. Found Glowsolar were within an hour of my location and looked to have excellent reviews so asked for a quote for appropriate replacement inverter and install costs. Alice answered all my questions same working day on the Monday and was able to fit me in for install that week. Keir turned up Thursday same week and had the faulty inverter gone and new inverter up and running in under an hour, and hearing what a nightmare I'd had with my original installer trying to get the warranty fix done was kind enough to upgrade my new inverter warranty to 10 years for free in sympathy for the issues I'd had. Can only give 5 stars but it's definitely a 5 star+ service that's been given, would highly recommend.
A superb service by a brilliant team. We had solar panels and a Telsa Powerwall 2 with a gateway installed and a really happy with the performance of the system.
Did a great job, on time and to agreed specification. Very knowledgeable, helpful people.
Even though i've not used the service of this company, this review is based on them taking the time to talk me through some options which didn't involve them earning revenue from it. They are very helpful, professional and gave me some food for thought on ways to improve my current system. Whatever i do decide, i'll certainly consider using Glow Solar. Thank you
We were so happy with the service from Glowsolar. Alice was amazing at keeping us informed and all the key dates on the timeline were hit. The installation, including the scaffolding, were all professionally carried out and the teams were helpful, courteous and hardworking. Felt very confident in the level of experience and knowledge. We have 11 panels, two batteries , water heating and an EV charger fitted and the pricing was competitive. Glowsolar actually reduced our quote when savings on panels flowed through. Couldn't fault the experience.
Excellent service from the offset, Alice very polite and helpfull, Daniel very knowledgeable and professional in everything he did, cant recommend highly enough. Thanks
Incredibly pleased with the whole planning and install process. Alice quickly got back with a very competitive quote and within weeks we had scaffolding up and the panels and battery were installed in just 3 days by a very professional team. The quality of the install is very neat indeed. Everything has been working flawlessly so far and we're enjoying having the house fully solar powered 😎
Clear, straightforward and efficient installation, many thanks to Alice, Keir and the team. We're enjoying seeing the sunlight stream into the car's battery!
We would highly recommend Glowsolar! The whole team is professional, efficient and friendly. We were really impressed - they even passed on a saving on costs to us following a reduction in component costs - which was a lovely surprise! We were so pleased when they managed to get a cable from the front to the back of the house with NO damage to our floor coverings!
Glowsolar are a family run solar company in Levens and I recently had the pleasure of using them to install 27 panels at my property. I asked quite a lot of them because I had a very short deadline and they were very efficient and professional. I would not hesitate in recommending them and every member of the team is excellent to deal with. Thank you!
Alice and Keir were professional and easy to deal with from the start to the finish and always happy to answer a multitude of questions and provided clear visuals of likely PV performance etc. We are extremely pleased with GlowSolars pre-work, quote, installation through to going live - they have a great team, with a reliable and flexible approach which made it all very easy and straightforward.
Top solar panel company! Alice was friendly and helpful, kept us informed start to after completion and made sure we had the best value for money within our budget. Keir and his team were efficient and professional, all went smooth. I couldn't recommend them enough. Many thanks to all at Glowsolar from all at Manna House!
Glow solar are the real deal - Kier, Alice and Dan were brilliant throughout the whole process of quoting, installing and ongoing support. The work was extremely tidy, efficient and professional. Super pleased the solar and battery system they installed on our roof - would highly recommend.
Keir & his team came highly recommended and I wouldn't hesitate to do the same. Alice, Keir, Mehdi & Dan all worked to a high standard. They managed our expectations well both before and during installation and I would use words like honesty, integrity, accountability and quality to describe GlowSolar. How lucky we were to find such a business so local to the area.
The whole team and process were great to deal with, quick, efficient and left every where clean and tidy. Would highly recommended
Solar & battery installation- Very knowledgeable & friendly advice on solar & battery specification prior to ordering. Work carried out quickly & to spec. Also helpful after installation with a couple of questions relating to setup & running. No pushy sales & listen to what you actually want the system to do.
After some research around what might be involved in an investment in a solar system, I embarked on the rather ominous process of finding a supplier. Lucky for me that I came across Glowsolar early on in my search. This wasn’t a task that I was going to entrust in anyone. I wasn’t choosing based on price alone. I was choosing based on the skills and experience of the team involved. My early discussions with Keir and Alice left me confident that I was dealing with a ‘safe pair of hands’. They supported me efficiently through the minefield that the solar design process can be, including the application to the DNO. Their preferred regular scaffolding suppliers were courteous and careful and erected and dismantled in a timely manner. Their electrician and their panel installer were both all round decent, friendly folk who they had worked together with for many years and who clearly knew their trades. They involved me in any decisions that needed to be made ‘on the job’. I was left with a fully tested and working system, with a complete handover pack arriving soon after completion. It’s not so often these days that you find a business that’s professional, helpful, responsive, do what they say they will and do it when they promise to. I’m pleased to have found Glowsolar and, whilst I’m not someone who usually writes reviews, wanted to take the trouble to this time, in the hope that it helps someone else to make a positive step towards a greener future.
Glowsolar are simply the best. We are thrilled with the installation and totally confident in Keir’s expertise and professionalism. Not only was everything done as promised but our roof was checked and repaired BEFORE the work was undertaken Furthermore We totally trust Keir to be available and responsive, should anything be needed in future not like some of the cowboys of whom we have heard. If only Octopus could be half as efficient, responsive and caring for customers’ needs, we would be blessed. Adrian and Franny Garne
Glowsolar were recommended to me by a solar industry expert. They did a fantastic job for me, and I have now recommended them to 3 other people who are interested in solar installations. The installation was high quality and they are great to deal with.
Very satisfied from planning of works, carrying out the works and answering questions afterwards. Staff very pleasant to deal with and would recommend to anyone. Very conscious of health and safety at all times.
Don't let their small size deter you - this is a great team. Thoughtful, helpful, and clear straightforward and competitive pricing. And when we had equipment problems after installation (not their fault but the equipment itself) they were on the case and sorted it with no quibbles or discussion. I can't recommend them too highly!
The service and support from Glowsolar was excellent. Both Kier and Alice were professional and very helpful, I would definitely recommend them and I will be using them again.
Kier, Alice and the team made, what seemed quite complicated, seamless and easy with excellent communication, being there when they said they would and producing a service second to none. They did what was stated on the tin. Thank you. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
Glowsolar provided great advice and service. Good communication and explanation of how to use the app to pensioners!
Solar panels, battery - all bells and whistles. Good communication and good advice - very patient with questions etc. Came when they promised and finished in time. Clean tidy and quiet working with a good handover. Highly recommended.
I did extensive research locally and further afield! Came down to Glowsolar and a nationwide company! Kier was professional and honest in his assessment of our needs setting out this clearly and not overselling! Also amenable to helping when I asked for extra stuff like independent power switches for blackouts! The National company was a nightmare trying to oversell and pressured demands to sighn on the dotted line! Kier’s reputation proceeds him and I was happy to wait for him to install and so glad I did! Huge array 18 panels all done and dusted in three days! Also great team behind him with electrical expertise and a right hand man on the job keeping it on schedule! 5star!!!
Fantastic team. They finished an install that my supplier was unable to. They were great at communicating dates and then sticking to those dates. They were very knowledgeable and I cannot recommend them highly enough. I will be using there services again in the future when I expand my system. A top rate service.
The service we got from Glow Solar has been great. They helped solve a problem that our previous installer left us with. Keir, Alice and Mauro couldn't have been more helpful. Would highly recommend. Mike and Melanie
Our large installation was completed with care and expertise. Everything was thoroughly explained. The team is friendly and the service was excellent, many thanks.
Highly professional proactive outfit across all stages from enquiry, quotation, supply management, administration, communication and installation. Recommend unreservedly.
Glowsolar were brilliant. Not only did they work to the highest of standards with top quality professionals, but were also friendly, informative, and worked with honesty, integrity and empathy. From start to finish we were completely reassured by their commitment to customer satisfaction. Thank you Keir and all the team.
Excellent personal service. Good timekeeping. High quality installation
Glowsolar has done an outstanding job in installing our solar panels. We recommend them very highly. They managed supply issues effectively, were on time and efficient with installation, and have always been available for support. The system they designed for us is working brilliantly.
A great team who delivered a superb install. Nothing was an issue and the quote was competitive in a difficult market for both clients and installers. Highly recommend for a quality install and great communication with the office too.
As other reviewers mentioned we cannot recommended this company highly enough. From initial contact, preparation, installation and administration they have done an excellent job. We had the panels set into the roof and it looks brilliant, a bit more expensive but well worth the money. If you are thinking of getting solar panels give Glowsolar a call.
We would not hesitate to recommend this company. A first class installation from start to finish. Keir and his team are knowledgeable, efficient and trustworthy. Communication was excellent and we know we can contact them with any queries in the future.
Brilliant work by Keir and the lads. Lots of info to decide the right system for us from the start and no pushy sales.
When it came to making a decision on the supplier for our solar panels and associated system (batteries etc) using Glow Solar and Keir was virtually uncontested. Helpful, informative, patient with a layman like myself Keir also provided itemised quotations based on what we needed rather than what I perceived we wanted. Not the cheapest ,but a long way from being the most expensive and I knew exactly what I was getting. The work was started and finished on time and without fuss or mess it was completed with minimum disruption. Afterwards a complete explanation of the system and what to expect and what not to expect was received along with a promise of continued support should we need it. (The reviews suggest this to a firm offer rather than hollow promise.) I would be more than happy to recommend Glow Solar I cannot praise Keir and his company highly enough.
Very pleased with our experience of GlowSolar. We had a challenging brief combining hydroelectric turbines, solar PV and battery systems. Kier was hugely helpful and enthusiastic in designing and installing a fully integrated grid tied system, with remote access through a web /iPhone interface. The 16kw GivEnergy battery bank works brilliantly with Octopus agile, meaning we can top up the batteries when energy prices (and carbon emissions) drop and sell clean energy back to the grid when prices/carbon are high (currently peaking at~19-24p/KWh). Early days but looks like we’ll be bill free and break even in 3-4 years.
We were recommended by a friend to use Glowsolar after they had used them successfully. I found Keir to be helpful and informative. We had solar panels, battery and an energy management system installed. All work was carried out promptly and efficiently. Keir explained how the system worked and was available should a problem arise.
Highly recommended. Professional domestic installation from start to finish.
Glow Solar is probably the most professional Solar company in the north west! They did an install on my commercial property and even came back to help with warranty issues when we had a broken inverter. Great service, great attitude and great product!
I would highly recommend this excellent. company. Friendly, efficient, informative and very helpful at every stage of the installation.
Great company very quick and cleaned all mess up behind them would recommend to my friends
I cannot recommend this company enough. From first contact through installation to sign of and beyond Keir and his staff have been informative helpful and extremely professional. A 4.8kw intigrated east and west system on a sea front property not only looks fantastic and performs fantastic but also aliviates any worrýs of bird nesting or wind damage. An excellent service by and excellent company. Thank you.
Incredible service from Glowsolar when my inverter failed. Reassurance, helpful advice and constant monitoring of the problem throughout. Solar pv has one major problem at the moment and that is that most of the installers have gone out of business since the rush to install a few years ago. Keir at Glowsolar even managed to track down the extended warranty and therefore there is no cost for replacement of the inverter; I would never have produced this outcome without his help! I cannot recommend this company too highly and will certainly use them for all my energy service and management.
Keir gave us a quote for solar panels with immersion heater link which was reasonable and full of detail. We appreciated his advice and helpful suggestions. Due to time constraints we accepted another quote but would have no hesitation in recommending him.
Keir is passionate about what he does, and made particular effort to understand the current and future needs of my property. Efficient install of a 4.8kWp PV array with 7.2kWh of battery storage. The system has been working well for 3 months now, and I look forward to using Glowsolar for future projects!
Excellent, good workmanship and good advice on a replacement inverter. Arrived bang on time and completed the job quickly
If I could give six stars I would. Extremely helpful, prompt and professional both in providing advice and in executing our commission - an excellent service.
A great pleasure to have someone who knows how to explain things and helps you. Would happily recommend.
Really excellent service! I am delighted at what Keir and his team have set up for me with super flexible switching between different power needs. I couldn't be happier. The work was also carried out very quickly and straightforwardly, with all mess cleared up afterwards. Thank you so much!
Had a problem with our PV inverter, and SMA ( manufacturer of inverter) gave us a link to a site listing local installers. We contacted three of them for an estimate to fit new Sunny Boy inverter and a solar immersion heater. Keir of Glowsolar arrived promptly and submitted his estimate within 24 hours. We waited over two weeks for the other two companies to quote, and had to chase them. No contest really. Glowsolar's quote was competitive, Keir was eager to do the job - in fact he fitted us in a week earlier than first arranged. Both Keir and his electrician were clean, tidy workers. I would recommend them.
Unfortunately for my inverter broke down after 4 years. The original installer like many went under. Lucky for me I found Keir and Glowsolar. I received 2 quotes for the inverter replacement from 2 different manufacturers. The quotes came with the cost and all the details about reliability, efficiency and after service, everything you need to know to have peace of mind. The installation went smoothly and on time as promised. If you have a problem or want an installation I would 110% recommend giving them a ring. Excellent all round service.
Keir did a wonderful job kitting me out with a PV system on my house and spent the time to explain how to go about setting up my feed in tariff. He did the install whilst I was away on holiday so was literally no hassle; you wouldn't even have known there'd been anyone in the house! He even sorted out my TV aerial whilst he was up on the roof. Thanks Keir!
Discovered we had problems with our Solar Inverter box. Found Glowsolar on the internet. As it is local to us I rang the number and spoke to Keir who was very helpful. He advised me what to do to try and sort out the problem but had to come to visit. He discovered that there had been an electrical fire as the box was sooted and one of the cables into the Inverter had just been fitted using electrical tape and stuck up. I feel very lucky that the fire did not set the house alight. We had to have a new Inverter which Keir fitted the following day. He was extremely knowledgeable and explained stuff that we were not aware of. We inherited this problem and it has taken 2 years to surface, the people we bought the house off were into doing "deals" so it just goes to show employing "cowboys" to do a job does not pay in the long run. Thankyou Keir for sorting this out, splendid job.
