A great team from start to finish

A great team from start to finish. Great communicators who listen and react punctually. The fitting of solar panels, inverter & battery was done to a very high standard. I have no reservations in highly recommending

Hurstwood Homes…

As residents of a Hurstwood Homes property, my family and I have been extremely impressed with the support provided by P4 Solar as we settled into our new home at the Cotton Meadows development. From the very beginning, P4 Solar has ensured we are seamlessly connected to a more sustainable way of living, providing ongoing guidance and support that have enabled us to enjoy the benefits of renewable energy while embracing the comfort and luxury of our new home.
The partnership between Hurstwood Homes and P4 Solar is an excellent initiative, ensuring that every homeowner experiences a smooth and stress-free transition into their new property. Through expert advice and assistance before and after moving in, P4 Solar ensures that homeowners have their solar PV systems and battery storage fully operational from day one, allowing them to maximise the benefits of their state-of-the-art, energy-efficient homes.
We found Justin's visit particularly valuable, as he took the time to clearly explain how the high-quality solar PV system and battery storage work together to power our home. His knowledge, professionalism, and approachable manner gave us the confidence to make the most of the technology and fully appreciate the long-term financial and environmental benefits it offers. I would like to say Thanks to Justin. Chris

Excellent service from a highly professional business

From initial engagement to system sign-off, the P4 Solar team were professional, courteous and efficient. The solar/battery system was installed quickly, with minimal disruption and the lads were extremely neat and tidy (despite the variable weather). We did have a couple of minor issues (not P4 Solar's fault), but these were dealt with quickly and efficiently - hence the 5* review.

First class service

From the first meeting with Fred to the final install the whole process has been fantastic. We chose P4 for our installation as their advice and guidance was first class. The installation team were awesome and consulted with us all day about where and how they were going to install all of the equipment. There work is very neat and super tidy. I've already recommended P4 to friends who are considering solar/battery.

Highly Recommend !

Fred Maddocks at P4 Solar came highly recommended to us by two different people, and I can honestly say he has not let us down.
From the very beginning, P4 Solar offered a personable, small family-business feel, while still delivering a highly professional service. Communication throughout has been excellent—always prompt, clear, and helpful. They handled all the paperwork required and guided us through the entire process, making everything as straightforward as possible.
We experienced some delays at our end due to a house renovation and the many moving parts involved. None of these issues were P4 Solar's fault, yet they were incredibly flexible and worked around other trades on site to keep things moving.
What really stood out was the level of customer care. During a house rewire, our system went offline because we had no power. Fred noticed this and even contacted us while he was on holiday to make sure everything was okay. That level of service truly goes above and beyond.
At no point did we feel pressured to make a purchase after receiving the quote. Fred took the time to understand our needs and recommended the most suitable battery setup for us. Rather than trying to sell us additional equipment, he advised us to start with one battery and explained that a second could easily be added later if required.
We couldn't be happier with the service we've received and would highly recommend Fred and the team at P4 Solar to anyone considering solar installation. A genuine, trustworthy company that puts its customers first.

An almost enjoyable experience.

While the lads arrived a little late, it didn't matter as they got on with the job and completed it well within the expected time allocation despite the 32 degrees of heat!! They were all very friendly and pleasant, helpful and respectful. Everything was explained in detail afterwards and everything was cleaned up afterwards. No complaints at all. An almost enjoyable experience.

not experts in the field, tech support disappears

I'm disappointed to rate P4solar a 1 against their other reviews, but them saying "at P4 we are strictly a supply-and-installation company" pretty much sums it up, I wanted a battery install to best arbitrage electricity prices and was sold a Hanchu system despite enquiring about a different system. Turns out Hanchu really is behind the curve compared to their competitors, so my system is not fit for purpose. Sadly emails to p4Solar tech support 3 months after install go unanswered. Attempts to engage with Directors do not get results. Beware!

Hello Simon,

We are extremely disappointed to receive this review, particularly given the level of engagement and support we have provided throughout your project.

When we explained that we are a supply and installation company, we were referring to the fact that we are not able to develop or modify manufacturer software. Following your installation, you advised that you wished to integrate Home Assistant via API with your Hanchu ESS system. In response, we addressed your queries and facilitated direct communication between yourself and Hanchu ESS so you could raise questions and request potential software enhancements directly with the manufacturer.

Whilst we are always happy to assist wherever possible, software development and updates remain outside of our control. We would note, however, that establishing direct contact with the manufacturer is not something available to all customers, and we made this effort specifically to ensure you could raise your concerns with those best positioned to implement any changes.

Had Home Assistant integration been identified as a key requirement at the outset, we would have explored alternative systems with you. Your original specification, however, was for an inverter and battery solution compatible with the Octopus Agile tariff for energy arbitrage. The Hanchu ESS system fully meets that requirement.

You also mentioned an alternative system, specifically a Fox ESS quotation you had received and simply just the price of that system. Based on your original requirement for energy arbitrage, this option did not present any additional benefit. In fact, the charge and discharge rates of the Fox ESS batteries would have been lower than those of the Hanchu ESS system, resulting in reduced performance for your stated objective. Without prior knowledge of a requirement for API integration, there was no clear advantage in recommending an alternative product.

We appreciate that this situation is frustrating, and we have continued to support you by liaising with both yourself and Hanchu to seek answers to your requests. P4 Solar Support remains on hand to assist; however, as previously explained, we are unable to implement the immediate updates you are requesting, as these are under the control of the manufacturer, Hanchu ESS.

We are committed to supporting our customers wherever possible and hope this response provides helpful context for anyone reading your review.

Outstanding company

We recently had solar panels installed and couldn’t be happier with the service we received. The company and installers were brilliant from start to finish. Declan, Dylan, and Jackson were the roofers, and they were professional, friendly, and left everything clean and tidy when the job was done.

A special thank you to Fred, who has been amazing throughout the whole process. He is always available on the phone, happy to help, and willing to offer advice whenever needed.

We couldn’t recommend this company highly enough and are so grateful for the excellent service we received.

I recently had a solar and battery system installed at my home by P4.
They were very professional, helpful and supportive throughout the entire process, from the initial visit to measure up, through the quotation stage, installation and after sales service, including the arrangement of all the necessary registration documentation I needed in order to become an energy exporter.
A1 service from an A1 company and very competitively.priced. Thank you P4, I can't praise you highly enough.
And a special shout out to Oli, who gave me solid, practical advice throughout and is a credit to P4.

I highly recommend P4Solar. Excellent!

We are really very impressed with the excellent service we have received from P4 Solar. From proposal to quote to instalment and aftercare we have been kept well informed. The installers have been friendly and good at communicating with us, and they have worked hard and effectively. The system is up and running completed quickly and efficiently. We needed the roof refelting too and Solar were able to recommend a roofer who has done an excellent job. They too have kept us well informed about what is being done and when.
The instalment is a big undertaking I have been comfortable throughout that I could trust Solar 4 to do everything right.
All round excellent. I highly recommend p4 Solar.

Seamless process from start to finish with P4 Solar. Very professional, contact and updates provided of process throughout of the installation of an EV charger. Nothing was too much trouble and very efficient team from my initial enquiry to booking the installation of an EV charger through to completion. Thank you to Rachel and all the team for sorting all the paperwork and set up of my installation. Very happy customer and wouldn't hesitate to recommend you all.

Service that was second to none from start to finish.

My installation was actually more of a modification to my existing solar PV and battery system which P4 Solar hadn't previously been involved in.
Although, if I understood correctly, it was not the sort of commission which P4 would undertake as a rule as they prefer to carry out complete supply and fix works I was treated as a valuable customer and everything from start to finish was carried out with courtesy and as promised.
I think it was less than a week from making the initial contact with them to having the initial survey carried out followed by the retrospective alterations to my systems a couple of weeks later.
Everyone turned up exactly as planned on the date and time previously agreed. The alterations were carried out very efficiently and the final handover was completed on the same day.
P4 kept me fully informed of appoinments with follow up reminders and confirmations by email, text and phone calls to ensure that I knew exactly what to expect and when.
Once the work was completed the follow up from P4 was superb checking that I was happy with everything and this was then followed up a few days later by all the relevant information about guarantees, completion certification and updates on my application to feed into the national grid.
I cannot praise the whole team enough for their conscientious approach to the job.
Considering that I had initially engaged another installer to look at the work and after 8 months nothing had happened the service from P4 was absolutely first rate. I think it was less than 8 weeks from initial contact to completion and I couldn't be happier with the service and quality of work that I received.
Many thanks to the whole team.

This comany are exceptional

This comany are exceptional. I decided to have solar panels fitted and first dealt with Fred - an excellent leader of the team. The details about the panels being fitted etc. were exceptional and the price was excellent. I didn't go for another quote, I was already impressed. Yesterday the panels were fitted. All 4 members of the team involved in fitting the panels and the electrics were exceptional and extremely professional and friendly. I have also had two occasions to speak to the support staff at the office, who have also been exceptional. I have not come across a more organised, professional and exceptional company as P4Solar for a long time. Many companies that I deal with regularly could learn much from the way this company operates. Thank you to the company.
