Top 5 Things to Look for in a Solar Installer

Your guide to choosing the right solar panel installer in South Yorkshire and North Nottinghamshire

Choosing the right solar installer can make all the difference when it comes to getting the most from your solar investment. With energy bills continuing to rise and sustainability now a key priority for many UK households and businesses, it’s crucial you choose a provider who combines technical expertise with trusted local service.

At Wright Renewables, we believe in empowering customers with the right information — so here are the top 5 things to look for in a solar panel installer:

Solar Panel Systems Installed on a worksop home including batteries

1. Experience and Accreditation

Look for an installer with proven experience and appropriate certifications. Any reputable company should be MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) certified and work with RECC (Renewable Energy Consumer Code).

"Our team is fully MCS-certified and has installed solar PV systems for both domestic and commercial clients across the region since 2020."— Lee Rolfe, Director, Wright Renewables

Avoid vague or suspiciously low quotes. A quality installer will provide a detailed, transparent breakdown of costs including equipment, labour, and aftercare.

We believe in being reassuringly expensive, focusing on high quality workmanship over cut corners.

Your solar system is a long-term investment. Choose an installer that offers ongoing support and servicing.

Online reviews and local word of mouth are essential. Look for real case studies, testimonials and review scores on platforms like Google or Trustpilot.
