I highly recommend Ecocetera
Ecocetera have been brilliant throughout. They have explained everything clearly from the planning stage through to installation and getting started. Installation of 16 solar panels and an accompanying battery took just two days and after I was guided through the software so as to make the most of the import/export from battery and solar panel system to the national grid. I am confident I am in good hands and will get back up help should I hit a problem. I highly recommend Ecocetera.
We had a fantastic experience with Ecocetera. They replaced our outdated and broken solar power diverter quickly, skilfully and at a good price. Fantastic communication, super friendly and did all they could to help. I couldn't recommend them more highly.
We had solar panels and a battery installed by ECOCETERA and couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. They originally came out and quoted for us, and although it was almost a year later before we decided to go ahead, the communication throughout was absolutely fantastic. Any query or question we had was responded to very quickly, both before and after installation. The installation itself was carried out during extremely hot weather, but the team still turned up, worked incredibly hard, and remained professional throughout. They were courteous, respectful of our property, and did a fantastic job. They started on time, finished on time, and cleaned up so well you’d never have known they’d been here. After the system was installed, we had a couple of questions, and phoning up was never an issue — nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Our questions were answered promptly, help was always given, and they even carried out site visits to make sure we were completely happy with the system. We cannot recommend this company highly enough. A fantastic local firm: incredibly professional, competitive on price, and delivering a brilliant service from start to finish.
Ecocetera did an outstanding job from the initial on site meeting through to completion. They took the time to understand my requirements and provided advice on a range of products that would meet my needs. They organised everything perfectly, starting work when they said they would and completing everything in just a couple of days with all work undertaken to a very high standard. Following the installation they checked all was working as it should and took the time to help register the system and set up the on line monitoring app. Ecocetra were very competitively priced and provided excellent value for money. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
Top class quality service
The upgrade to our solar system was conducted with a high degree of professionalism bearing in mind, this was a complex process in this case. Everyone was very helpful and pleasant. It was a pleasure to work with these people. The work was completed to schedule and project was good value for money. We would highly recommend this company.
You have probably found this review because, like me, you check every review before committing a significant sum to a high-tech project that could go well or badly. I had also had a personal recommendation for Ecocetera, so I commissioned them, rather than others, to add a battery and gateway to an existing solar panel installation. They were utterly professional throughout the entire job, and unfailingly polite and helpful with my many questions; and this has continued even after the invoice was paid! I unhesitatingly recommend Conrad, Jeannie and their team.
Honest, reliable, competent and courteous
Ecocetera recently added a battery and gateway to my existing solar panel system, which had been installed in 2014 by another company. Others may be capable of doing a good job, but Ecocetera has stood out for me as utterly competent and professional in all aspects of the job, from first tentative contact, through discussion of options, quotation, installation and post-completion support. Perfection isn't given to Man, but Ecocetera are the next best thing.
From the initial inquiry to the installation everything went very smoothly. The site team were very professional and the installation was very neat and tidy. The office team always answered the phone and dealt with any queries quickly. We would highly recommend Ecocetera to anyone considering solar panels.
Would highly recommend.
A brilliant and positive experience overall. Right from the initial survey, where Conrad explained what our options were for our installation. He was polite, informative and not pushy at all. Then Jeannie helped with quotes for different options that were right for us, rather than the company. The installation went very smoothly, the installers were again, polite and very helpful, going through what would go where. They completed on time, with a very professional job. Overall I really recommend ecocetera for Solar panels. They were a pleasure to work with. I had heard so many bad reports about other Solar companies, it was so nice to work with such a good local company that really did care that we got the best solution that was right for us. And now, we are generating free electricity, which is a great feeling ! Thank you ecocetera.
Ecocetera are an outstanding company - they have previously installed panels and battery for us, and recently added a second battery. From initial consultation to switch-on, they were completely professional, and happy to explain every detail, without any pressure. We were given updates on progress of the order, when scaffolding would arrive, etc. The installation itself was a masterclass in efficiency and precision. The team was punctual and worked with impressive speed and care, minimising disruption and - importantly - making sure we were happy with things like cable routes before they started drilling holes. What sets them apart in my view is their attention to detail; the wiring is neat and tidy, and the entire setup looks clean and professional. Even after the job was done, they checked on performance and were happy to answer additional questions. We recommend Ecocetera without any hesitation.

A very knowledgeable & professional…
A very knowledgeable & professional company who outlined the benefits of a PV system in full & then met those expectations with the service & system they provided. A highly professional installation followed, well ahead of the schedule provided. I was kept fully informed throughout and am completely satisfied with all aspects of their service, product, and installation.
Ecocetera - another excellent installation
Having used Ecocetera for several projects in the past, we were very pleased to find their services continued to be of the highest standard when we contracted them to instal a domestic battery and a further eight PV panels. They discussed options with us, including the idea of using the latest panels which could provide high output even on our north east facing roof. Their quote was easy to understand, the price was competitive, and they offered installation dates that were convenient for us. They arranged for scaffolding to be erected in advance of installation, and this was done efficiently and without any problems. The actual installation of the PV panels, inverter, and all new cabling were done in two days by experienced Ecocetera staff. They were polite, tidy, informative, trustworthy and helpful at all times. We were delighted with the quality of the work. Having used them several times in the past, we knew how good they were, and on this latest work, they came up to all our expectations. Well done.
We chose Ecocetera as they are local to us and are able to provide European brands of solar panels (Eurener) and Givenergy's newest 10kW high voltage inverter with the 20.4kWh battery stack. The actual installation was fast, and the installation quality is high with attention to detail. Would use their services again and refer them to friends for solar PV systems.

Ecocetera did a great job installing my battery
I can highly recommend Ecocetera for solar PV and battery installation. Ecocetera installed our solar PV about 12 years ago and last week they installed a battery system to conplement the solar panels. What a great company. Everything has gone as smoothly as it possibly could from the first contact. They are lovely people both in the office and on site.
Excellent Ecocetera 🙏🏽
Thanks Ecocetera 🙏🏽. Wonderful service from initial email to site visit to installation. Professional, attentive, knowledgeable and responsive. Highly recommended to anyone seeking any of their services. Top class 👏🏽
Ecocetera have just completed a solar PV installation for us in Thornbury. They did a great job, arrived and completed as planned. They adjusted their installation schedule to fit around another contractor who was providing scaffolding. A great service.
Satisfied of Kingswood
From start to completion we were very happy with all aspects of the service we received, we were kept informed every step of the way in a clear and very friendly manner. The installation team on the day we`re also very friendly and helpful, keeping us informed with their progress, we fully recommend Ecocetra to anyone thinking of going Solar !!
Exemplary workmanship and friendly…
Exemplary workmanship and friendly team. Happy to recommend Ecocetera for your solar PV system.
Superb service
Superb service! Charming, highly knowledgeable and extremely efficient. Thank you so much.
We chose Ecocetera because they are a local, family-run company that we had heard good things about and we were not disappointed. From the beginning of the quoting process we felt listened to and included in decisions around the size of the system and how we wanted it to work for us. Upon accepting the quote, the work was carried out promptly, as discussed, with the scaffolding appearing on the day promised and being taken away just over a week after completion of the job. Each of the workers involved took the time to introduce themselves and all were respectful of our property and how they stored tools and materials on the overnight periods between work. They turned up at the agreed time and always made sure to leave work areas clean and tidy after use. When it was necessary to switch off the power, we had advance warning and it was only for a brief period of time so it didn’t disrupt any working from home days. Communication was via email and all queries were promptly resolved, usually on the same day. Even when we decided to add an extra solar panel in mid-job, this was easily accommodated. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ecocetera to anyone looking for a good quality solar system for their property.

Excellent experience from start to finish.
We found Ecocetera to be a very easy company to communicate with. All of our initial questions were answered quickly and thoroughly before we proceeded to a survey. We accepted the quote and the company were then very flexible about the installation date. The install team where super polite, efficient and tidy. They made sure to explain how things worked before leaving site. I would definitely recommend Ecocetera to anyone considering solar panels.
Solar installation - chew valley
Ecocetera were recommended to us. We telephoned them and they soon provided an estimate by email with various options. After talking through pros and cons when they visited our house, we decided on solar cells with the ability to expand with a battery system later on. The installation was efficient and their team were brilliant. I thoroughly recommend this family business for the quality of their work and overall standard of care and service. A top-rate company.
Ecocetera installed a 5.66kW solar PV array in February 2024. Everything went smoothly, the installers were friendly and efficient, and the finished product neat and tidy. I was so impressed I asked them to install a 10kW SolarEdge battery in May! I have been almost completely self-sufficient ever since, and would not hesitate to recommend Ecocetera to any prospective customer
Excellent !! Just had my solar and battery installation completed by Ecocetera Ltd and could not recommend them highly enough. Conrad & the team (James, Will, Dave & Tom) doing the installation take real pride in the work they do everything installed is very neat and tidy and they leave the place spotless. I had an awkward roof which faced different directions but Conrad & Jeannie came up with a suitable design to make the most of the space available and gave options for different battery storage to various budgets so it was great to have a choice. Conrad uses ASM scaffolding, they were also excellent, my scaffolding has been down for ages and my neighbour (who used someone else) still has their scaffolding up even though his went up before mine. Once again thanks Conrad, Jeannie and team for an excellent job.
Delivered on time to a good quality
Installation of 18 solar panels and a 9.5kWh battery. Ecocetera were one of 3 quotes I got for the work. Ecocetera were the only one who came to view my property before submitting a price. The quotation took slightly longer than the other companies but was within the timescales indicated during their visit. The lead time for the installation was approx. 10 weeks from the date of the quotation. I was offered a choice of installation dates and everything went exactly to the times they agreed, from the initial installation of the scaffolding to its subsequent removal. I was impressed by how smoothly the installation went, the quality of the workmanship and the appearance of the installation. Overall I am very pleased with how everything went and would definitely recommend Ecocetera to anyone considering a Solar PV installation.
I have recently had solar panels fitted by Ecocetera. The whole process was very smoothly and efficiently carried out with little inconvenience to myself. The team were highly professional, courteous and helpful, explaining everything at every stage. I thoroughly recommend the company.
We asked our new-build developer to recommend a company to install solar panels and they recommended Ecocetera, and a friend recommended them too after a recent install. Ecocetera did a great job. They were helpful exploring the different options to work out the best solution, the team were always prompt and professional for the survey and the install. The installation went really well and would recommend Ecocetera to others in the area.
I got quotes from FIVE solar installers in total, nobody really seemed to get what I wanted until I found Conrad and Jeannie at Ecocetera. Unlike others, his quote and survey of the house and checks for suitability were significantly more in depth and reassuring than any other company. This meant visiting the house, examining the roof, the loft, the electrics and working out exactly how it would be fitted. No other installer did this. In fact, no other solar company even took the time to understand what I wanted, which was basically as much solar as you could possibly squeeze on the roof! I felt he knew everything there was to know about solar and we discussed it at length until I was completely satisfied with exactly what was going to be done and exactly how it would be installed. A huge amount of discussion also took place with Jeannie via e-mail who was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process and patiently answered all kinds of things I wanted to know, clarified details, discussed the quote, and there was never anything she didn't know the answer to or didn't immediately contact someone to find out. The price was very reasonable considering the huge size of the install for a domestic house. Everything went very smoothly and it was clear that Ecocetera are one of those companies that do everything by-the-book correct. The wiring, the installation, the electricians, everything was done properly and in compliance. I put this specifically because I've had a bit of a headache recently with various tradesfolk doing a less than stellar job, but in this instance, it was completely flawless. All of installers were professional and polite. It has been a couple of months since it was set up and it is generating an absolute boatload of energy. I am well chuffed. I'm glad I got it done just after moving into my new house, because usually I'm someone that would think about it for years then kick myself for not doing it earlier. If you include these folk when you're gathering quotes I can't possibly imagine for even a second you wouldn't go with them.
Good service. Regular and easy communication. Efficient assessment of roof area before fitting the solar voltaic panels. Good relationship with the workers who installed the system. Subsequent performance of the solar electricity system highly satisfactory. I would recommend Ecocetera as a supplier of solar electricity generation.
Ecocetera were able to step up to the…
Ecocetera were able to step up to the plate by supplying and fitting battery storage for our solar panel system, which we appreciated after being let down by another firm. Office staff are helpful and friendly and were able to offer a better specification at a lower price than our earlier quote. We felt valued and that our custom was appreciated. Moreover, they were able to do a better job of analysing our energy usage in order to recommend the optimum capacity of battery storage based on our usage and budget. Punctual installer, very polite, worked quietly and carefully as is evidenced by the neatness of the wiring all done in good time with no disruption. He answered all our questions after the installation and made sure we understood how to view the battery storage data online. It's been a very good experience, and we have the confidence of knowing they're close by in the unlikely event we have issues needing attention. I have no hesitation in recommending this company
Had a recent Solar PV install on our new roof and it looks great and the process from start to finish from Jeannie and her team was excellent would highly recommend.
We had a 4.2kWh system installed in late June 2019 and it's been faultless - a rapid survey and quote followed by a quick installation. The Solar Edge app means we can monitor our production (we decided not to bother with a full monitor to see what goes back to the grid as we're not expecting there to be much). Excellent service and a great product - would gladly recommend Ecocetera.
Ecocetera were a fantastic company to deal with. Everyone was super efficient, and very pleasant at all times. Everything went precisely as planned with no hidden extras and creative thinking about where to site all the equipment. I was very happy with the price, it was much less than I expected. The solar panels are working really well and I can highly recommend this company.
So pleased with with Conrad and his team throughout on what was a rather different specification including 10 LG cells on a purpose built pergola. Excellent advice and help from Jeannie who was able to satisfy particular our needs. When we finish our refurb we will be back ofr a battery!
I had a 4kW PV System installed by Ecocetera in September. The Installation went very well and all work was very competently and neatly done. The Panels look great and are performing as expected. Conrad and Greg certainly went beyond the call of duty, not only did a first class Job installing the Panels and Inverter, but also repaired some things in the House! Jeannie was also very helpful with all my queries and was always prompt in getting back to me. I really felt that Ecocetera had my best interests at heart at all times It was a pleasure to deal with this Company and I have no hesitation in recommending Ecocetera as an extremely competent, professional Company.
