Excellent company and service
Excellent company and service from the back office staff through to the survey and install teams. Communicative and helpful with no question unanswered. There was a slight hiccup during install but the measure when these things happen isn't usually the mistake itself but how it is dealt with and on that front I couldn't have been happier. Should anyone be wondering if these guys are right for them I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them and have already done so.

A very happy customer!
We had a visit from a technical guy before signing up. He was very knowledgeable and helped us make the decision to go ahead with the solar panels.
Everything was organised exceptionally well
Scaffolding erected a couple of days before the installation. Installation took a day and after that we were up and running!

Thank you for your fantastic review. We're delighted to hear that your experience was such a positive one from start to finish.
It's great to know that our technical survey helped give you the confidence and information you needed to make the decision to go solar. We believe that providing clear, knowledgeable advice is an important part of the process, so we're pleased that this stood out to you.
We're also happy to hear that the installation was well organised and ran smoothly, from the scaffolding being erected ahead of time to the system being installed and commissioned in just a day. Our team works hard to ensure every project is completed efficiently while maintaining high standards of workmanship.
Thank you for choosing us for your solar installation. We appreciate your trust and hope you enjoy the benefits of your new solar system for many years to come.
Efficient, good workmanship, thanks Cam and team!
Very happy with my recent solar install. Smooth process from start to finish. Good workmanship with tidy cabling and full clean at the end. There was an issue with one of the panels but the team returned next day with a replacement. Particular shoutout to Cam the electrician who we felt went above and beyond with the installation, and ensured everything was left neat and tidy.

Battery installation
Ewan completed our battery installation. He contacted us early in the day to advise us when we should expect him so that we didn't have to hang around all day. The installation went smoothly and the property was left clean and tidy. He guided us through use of the app going forward. I would recommend this company.

Excellent from start to finish!
From start to finish - our whole experience has been excellent. From Stephanie in the office to Brad (today’s electrician) we cannot fault the service we have received. Today in particular, Brad worked non stop in the heat of our loft and the 27’ outdoor heat, retained his sense of humour throughout, despite starting at 6am at the depot, arriving in Cambridge at 8:30 and not leaving our property until after 6pm. The standard of his work was excellent! Thank you!

The whole experience was excellent
The whole experience was excellent. the fitters of the scaffold arrived on time and did a very efficient job.
The Engineers Coming to fit the solar panels and all the electrical components arrived on time and did a very good job, they set up the app' on my mobile phone and showed me how to use the basic controls, the system is working very well, better than I expected.
All in all an excellent experience.
I would thoroughly recommend South East Solar and Electrical. Thank you.

Excellent Service & Quality Work
The whole solar experience with South East Solar & Electrical from first quote to initial survey, when I changed my requirements on a couple of occasions, to install was first class. Every time I rang, the office staff were polite and dealt promptly with my questions, with good email communication. I highly recommend them, so pleased with my solar & battery set up all working well.

Top notch
It was so refreshing to deal with a company like SESE. Excellent communication throughout the process - clear and prompt. Everything was explained and questions answered.
Installation happened yesterday and went very smoothly. Really appreciated the suggestions from them on the different ways to run the cables and how to make it look as good as possible. Delighted with the results.
This may sound like an AI-written review but it’s really not. If every company was as easy to deal with as SESE, life would be a lot less complicated! Thank you!

Very good overall experience
Very good overall experience with South East Solar & Electrical.
They were flexible during the design phase and very helpful when I changed my mind about the solar setup. The installation went well and I’m happy with the finished system.
There were a couple of small issues afterwards, but they returned promptly to sort them out. When I raised one workmanship concern, they took it seriously, apologised, and confirmed that further training had been given where needed.
Overall, a responsive, professional company and I’m very pleased with the service.
