5.0

Rowantree Homes Limited fits and maintains solar panels, batteries, inverters and car chargers. Several customers describe Les and his team as professional, friendly and good at explaining the work, with jobs carried out in a neat and tidy way. Prompt responses to faults and after-sales support are reported, including help with a router change and a system that needed parts ordered over Christmas. A few customers mention a clear quote with no pressure selling and paperwork handled for them, and one describes a complex installation on a listed church that went smoothly. One reviewer reports a pigeon problem under panels fitted without bird mesh; Les cleared the nests, sanitised the roof, cleaned the panels and fitted mesh over a long day.

We had 13 solar panels installed on our 3-storey house in 2011. Back then, we didn’t realise that by not having bird mesh fitted, those panels might as well have been billboards offering an ‘open invitation’ to any passing pigeons to set up home. When the first pair arrived this summer, we thought that they were quite cute. However, within a few of months they had produced a colony with at least thirteen nests! We couldn’t step out of our front door without encountering masses of pigeon poo, feathers and splatted eggs on our front path, and also on windows and windowsills. With the hosepipe ban, preventing me from using a pressure washer, I just had to do my best to clear up the mess with a brush and a bucket every morning. Not a pleasant task! I was given Cal’s contact number by someone I trusted in the trade. When I called him, he asked me to send photos of the two rooves on which we had the panels installed. He had a look at them, decided that he could do the job without the added expense of needing scaffolding, gave us a quote which wasn’t cheap but was what I had expected. He explained that it would include lifting panels, clearing out all the nests, checking for damage to any of the electrical components and replacing as required, sanitising the roof, and cleaning the panels thoroughly before fitting the bird mesh. He arrived at the time he’d said’ introduced himself, set up and secured his ladders, assessed the extent of the problem and showed me the photos he had taken before proceeding. He filled a black rubble sack with the nests and a further two with the feathers and muck which had filled the entire length of one of the gutters on the higher roof, before scraping and sanitising the roof, and using a hose to flush out the gutters. Once he’d cleaned and sanitised the panels he cut and fitted the bird mesh and then cleared up the mess below on the path, windows and sills. Cal worked steadily throughout the day working right through until he’d completed the job at 8 pm, to the very high standard he had set for himself. I found him to be personable and professional in everything he did. Thank you so much Cal. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Rowantree Homes Ltd. I would also advise anyone with solar panels who doesn’t have bird mesh fitted to do so as soon as possible, because prevention is far less messy than cure!

Quick and prompt, I req an inverter fitting under warranty. Spoke to Les and true to his word they came out in time and did the job. He also registered the new inverter for me. Great job, thankyou.

We were in the dark about why our panels although working were not giving us metered feedback. Les being very knowledgeable checked out everything finding that the inverter on our system we have had for 11 years, had in fact given up which after reading reports online is one of the most repeated problems, work carried out in one day by his very competent fitter, and all is well. I would highly recommend this firm
