Nick is an excellent gas engineer and a genuinely great guy. He has helped us out by installing several boilers across our buildings, and his service has been outstanding from start to finish. He’s been extremely responsive, quick to provide quotes, and swift at getting the work booked in, especially during the recent cold spell, which we really appreciated. His pricing is very competitive, and the quality of his work is exceptional. Friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful, couldn’t recommend him more.

I have been looking into the potential to getting solar for the past year. Originally went to my supplier octopus to be told only 4 panels could be fit on my roof space. I looked locally and found life's Energy. Darren came round for the initial check and chat during the summer and wasn't long before the panels were up. The experience of getting this all sorted has been really professional and would definitely recommend the guys to friends and family.

We had solar panels and battery installed by Life's Energy 6 months ago - seem to be working well so far. Thorough and tidy electrical work by Bill Stephenson as always. However, the scaffolders left bits behind and broke some kerbs in our garden, which we have been promised will be sorted, but despite many chases, via Life's Energy who contracted them, never has been, and I've given up. Also, the panel layout was changed on the day because it turned out more fitted on the south-facing side, but if we'd known in advance (which should have been possible if measured accurately?) we might have gone for a different setup/number, but it was too late by then.

We had Life's Energy come and install our solar panels a few years back, and we've never had a minute's bother with them so it made sense to ask them back for a quote to upgrade the system with battery storage. Well, you've only got to look at utility prices and how they've risen, it made a lot of sense. Not only was their price competitive, they were super fast (ONE DAY) no mess, no disruption and as before, Darren took care of all our paperwork and registration so we didn't have to do a thing. Except keep Bill supplied with tea. Well, you have to keep the workers happy ;) I would recommend Darren and the team to anyone. A First Class Service.

We have PV's fitted by Life's Energy, that stopped working can I get Life's Energy to sort it out? Yes someone came told us the problem got quotes, it was done in an hour at a great price beat a "never bettered " on price too. Life's Energy got the job done and put life back in our PV's I think it fit and will help to get a good job done quickly and at good price.

Practical non-pushy advice given from the sales team, competitive price, neat and professional installation, and good follow up communication. I would recommend Life's Energy

Lifes Energy installed a PV system at my last house in 2012 and at my current home in June 2022. The new system has solar panels, 7.2kw battery and an I boost for taking excess power once the batteries are fully charged to run the hot water immersion heater. Both systems exceeded the expected power generation, are reliable and as installers Lifes Energy were very efficient, quick and easy to work with. I would highly recommend them!

I have spoken to the company many years after having a bio mass boiler installed as i had a technical query. They could not have been more helpful and its this level of aftersales service define this company as being great to deal with and very reputable

I had my solar panels installed yesterday by the guys from Life's Energy. Their quote was significantly better than a like for like quote I had received from a national company so I was delighted to be able to support a local Scarborough company. Throughout the process communication was good and on the day of the installation the guys were professional, polite and tidy. I would highly recommend this company.

The quote for our solar panels was competitive. Communication with the company through the ordering and fitting was excellent. The installation was very fast and with absolutely no mess or disruption. Throughout the quote and fitting all the staff were extremely knowledgeable. They ensured we knew how to get the best out of the system.

Very happy with the installation of my solar panels, which was all carried out in a timely, tidy, fashion. Very friendly, local company who answered any questions I had and fully explained the workings of the system purchased.

I decided to have solar panels installed because the rising energy costs made then more worthwhile. I chose LIfe's Energy as my supplier mainly because the are a local company. I've read blogs where customers had trouble getting suppliers to come back when things went wrong. After researching suppliers I found them to be equally competitive on price with other reputable suppliers. The installation was completed professionally to a high standard of workmanship. I was shown how the system works and was helped with installing an app on my phone to check the energy flow. I also had help with the documentation for exporting my excess energy. A good company, well recommended.

We have had our solar panels and battery storage for 5 months now. We had a quote from Darren which I was happy with for the size of system we have. From start to finish it was done very professionally and everyone was very helpful. The system has surprised us how efficient it is as I've pretty much hardly used the grid since mid Feb. Just got out of a fixed tariff so can now sell it back, as we have let them have it for free until now. Would definitely recommend life's energy

Life’s Energy quoted for and fit my solar panels and battery storage units. They offered the most competitive quote for the work. Darren turned up to inspect the site when promised, and was professional and polite. Quotes were given for smaller and larger systems, with full costings and benefit analysis provided. The fitting was preceded by the electrician doing the preparation work. He worked quietly and extremely neatly, making a superb job of it. The panel installation took less than a day and, again, was professional and extremely neatly done. The fitter gave site-specific advice re the absolute best place on the roof for the panels, to maximise efficiency. There are no wires to be seen on the house outside or inside, apart from inside the cupboard where the batteries are kept. Full instructions were given to me, plus all the required paperwork. The certificates and guarantees were soon sent, once they had been logged with the proper authorities. I opted for a big system and am not regretting it, when I see the impact on my usage. I’d recommend this company without reservation to anyone contemplating a solar panel-based system.
