Project Solar Experiences?

Hi All,


This is my first post, so bear with me. I've had Project Solar come to visit me to give me a quote for solar panels.


I was wondering if anyone has had any previous experience with this company? Everything seems on the up and up but I've had my fingers burned in the past.


With the rising energy prices, I feel as though solar panels are a no brainer and I'm future proofing myself.


I look forward to your feedback.

    Hi devo18uk,

    Welcome to the board - if you post details of their quotation and price, then you will get some great feedback on here.

    I am also in the Midlands and will send you the details of my installer as it always helps to have a couple of quotes to compare.

    Might want to try the green and ethical section, lots of PV info there.

    Thanks PW22 for the info. I'll post the question on the other thread as well to see if anyone has experience of Project Solar.

    Just curious PW22 how much did it cost you for how many panels?

    My complete system including VAT and fitting was just under £5,800 but prices have dropped slightly as that was over a year ago. I think the same company (who I sent you details via PM) are installing systems for between £5k - £5.5k on average
