Having moved to a new home in Cornwall without mains gas in we were shocked by the very high and rapidly rising cost of electricity.  Sharp action was needed to mitigate costs and, having little previous knowledge about solar, I initially contacted two national companies to enquire about solar installation.  However, few things in life are a bigger “no-brainer” than our decision to eventually run with a totally friendly, reliable and well managed local firm, MW Solar based in Helston.  Mark Warden couldn't have been easier to deal with or more professional.   He explained everything very clearly, giving various options both in terms of how much solar we needed and how much battery power we could have.  Eventually we decided to install 14 solar panels, a Solis 3.6kW Inverter and 2 x 4.8kWh Pylon batteries.   The price quote was competitive and the MW Solar team is made up of experts who really care about their clients.  The panels were mounted quickly using durable components and methods of anchoring, all properly wired to code, and the ongoing follow up once installed is invaluable.
We now easily monitor our solar system via a mobile phone app that tells us every day how much electricity we have generated and consumed.  Added advantage and savings are made during ever darkening days by charging our batteries overnight (4 hours) using off-peak electricity, which is a savings bonus keeping costs down.
The entire process has been smooth, seamless, and convenient from initial meeting with Mark who explained the entire process, to installation and commissioning.  We now have a great solar system provided by very professional people who completed the job efficiently, effectively and from start to finish to follow up they have been excellent.  Without hesitation we strongly recommend MW Solar to anybody who is considering solar power.

Mark and his team recently replaced our inverter and added a new battery to our existing solar system. They were very professional and efficient throughout the installation.

Everything works brilliantly, and we immediately noticed the benefits of having a battery on our electricity bill, and this has continued through the summer and into autumn.

I would highly recommend this local company for its expertise as well as value for money.

From the moment, Mark from MW solar, was recommended to us by good friends. We have not looked back, the service that we received was second to none. We recommended them to our daughter and son-in-law and they also have had fantastic service. Well done Mark and your fantastic team.
All the very best for the future .

Solar panels and batteries fitted by Mark Warden, MW Solar Ltd.  The whole instillation from scaffold going up to the commissioning of the system was exceptional. Mark and his team were efficient, polite and professional. I would have no hesitation in recommending MW Solar Ltd to anyone wishing to install solar panels.

MW Solar overall provided excellent service, with an honest consultation about likely performance figures, which meant we could work out expected savings. We decided to get the maximum number of panels on the roof as possible.   The install was done in a timely manner, and completed within 3 days, with all aspects completed in a competent and tidy fashion.  The system has been performing great with no issues, we are very happy that we decided to commit to a solar installation from MW Solar and would be happy to recommend to anybody.

Mark & his team were recommended to us, and I’m really pleased they were! We already had solar panels installed when we built our home 3yrs ago. However we were building to a strict budget and couldn’t stretch to battery storage at that time. Now we can and Mark came out, explained our options in such a way even I followed what we were being advised! We placed an order the next day and were told it should arrive in approximately 2 weeks time. In reality, Mark fitted us in 11 days later. Ben & Tim did an awesome job, very tidy and professional. The overall cost was less than some people were quoting for just the batteries! I’d highly recommend MW Solar every day of the week. To get tradespeople who actually do what they say and on time is so rare these days. Absolutely brilliant, thanks guys 👍.

Faultless from start to finish..  From the quote to installation took 3 weeks which far exceeded my expectations.. The install itself took 3 days in the most horrible weather. I asked for the wiring to stay exposed so that I could box them in myself which was done. Bingo... I was producing power, much more than I wanted and that's the reason I had 2 banks of batteries that see's me overnight and most of the morning before the sun hits the panels.
The whole experience was as smooth as it gets, Mark gave me a few pointers on the inverter after the install and I have contacted him several times for advise and has answered after hours so I will give his customer service 10/10.
So in a nut shell MW Solar gets the 10/10 award for the following:- Communication, Customer Service, Cleanliness, Trustworthiness (I left the keys for the house while at work), Goes above and beyond, Value for money...  You get where I'm going with this..
I don't know if there are cheaper out there, I did have 3 quotes, MW Solar were cheaper but the reason I went with Mark was the positive verbal reviews I had from my own customers that I see in the plumbing trade.
Just a pointer my last 3 electric bills have all been under £30. Yes Solar is expensive £11.5k for my set up but the way I look at it is that it has probably put £5k on the value of the house so with my calculations at today's climate it will take 5-6 years to pay itself off.
Keep up the excellent work Mark, Jess and the whole team.

Having shopped around for a solar panel system and not knowing enough about solar storage, I struggled to commit to investing a considerable amount of money in solar energy until I came across MW Solar.
I arranged a meeting with Mark Warden of MW Solar and he explained all I needed to know about the various options I could purchase,  including the one we agreed to. He quoted a very competitive price using quality materials and I accepted the quote after some research with confidence having every aspect explained and a fitting date was agreed.
The team carried out the work effectively and efficiently in a very neat and tidy way.
I was extremely impressed with the whole experience and the system is now living up to my expectations, it was certainly the right decision for me .
Having a local company has the advantage of backing up the work effectively in the shortest possible time.
Several of my friends have purchased a similar system to mine, supplied/installed by MW Solar and have all been equally delighted with the results.
It is with ease that I can make a recommendation based on my own experience with MW Solar.

My experience with MW Solar Ltd was very positive, Mark carried out a survey and suggested the system which would best fit my requirements.
His team carried out the installation with efficiency and humour.

Over the period of this summer I have been generating on average 20KWH each day which more than meets my requirements.

I am now going to be signing up with a supplier who will pay me for the surplus energy which is exported to the grid once my batteries are full.

I strongly recommend using MW Solar to install your system.
