Brilliant support to get my solar battery working again. I didn’t expect help on a Saturday but Ron answered the phone, listened and sent me the information I needed to get it going, answered questions etc. A brilliant service I’d happily recommend.

Ron was brilliant. He really tried to help. He spent hours trying to fix our GivEnergy AIO and ultimately it became apparent that it needed parts to fix the BMS management system. As there appears to be no replacement parts available on the market, he gave excellent advice on what options are now available to move forward. He is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.

Mark Mayson · Jun 2026 Google

Called back within a day and gave good advice.

Ron was extremely helpful and tried his best to repair/reset our GivEnergy inverter remotely. In the event he was unsuccessful but he couldn’t have been more helpful. If you have problems with a GivEnergy system please contact him. Highly recommended

Big thanks to Ron. He was incredibly patient and helpful over the phone, taking the time to walk myself and the installer through every troubleshooting step. Through lots of testing he figured out the issue was definitely a hardware issue, which allows us to consider our next steps. Support fees are clear and they operate a “no fix no fee” policy. It is rare to find that kind of honesty combined with dedicated phone support nowadays. I highly recommend Ron, if you need help with your solar system don’t hesitate to give him a call.

A superb service from Ron who went beyond the normal service received from other Tech support companies. I live abroad and was badly let down when my givenergy system failed (and the company went bankrupt) and the local supplier ran away from the problem. Ron sorted the problem and even accessed specialist coding for the inverter that would not be available for suppliers. Ron also ran a full diagnostic to insure that all was in good working order afterwards. Without Rons support and patient assistance I doubt I would ever have got the system back up and running. Well done and thankyou and you have a customer for the future.

How charging works in practice

1
You contact us

You submit the booking form, call, or email. No charge for the conversation. We don't take payment details upfront.

2
Free remote diagnostic

We confirm same-day, schedule a 30-minute live session, run the diagnostic. Still no charge at this point.

3
Clear outcome

We identify the fault and tell you one of: we can fix it remotely (here's the charge), it needs on-site (here's the quote), it's DIY-fixable (free advice), or it's out-of-scope (free direction).

4
You decide

No pressure. You decide whether to proceed with the paid fix or not. If you decline, you pay nothing for the diagnostic.

5
Written invoice if we proceed

If we proceed, you get a written invoice covering the fix charge and any parts. Parts always quoted before purchase.

FAQ

Common pricing questions

For remote diagnostics, no — we operate no fix, no fee. If we cannot resolve your fault remotely you pay nothing. No session fee, no admin fee, no charge whatsoever. For on-site visits, the minimum visit fee always applies because we cover travel and time on site — but we always quote the on-site work in writing before we attend, so you commit before we travel.
Free advice. We tell you exactly what to do. No charge, no obligation. Many common faults (CT clamp reversed, Eco Mode reset, app misconfigured) take five minutes to walk you through. We give you the answer because it's the right thing to do — and because customers we treat fairly come back. Our Solar Health Plan is available from £10 per month if you'd like ongoing support for future issues.
No. The service fee covers our engineering labour and travel. Any parts needed — inverter, battery module, CT clamp, wiring, contactor, breaker — are quoted separately once identified. You receive an itemised written quote and approve costs before we purchase or install anything. This keeps pricing transparent and prevents surprises.
No — the remote diagnostic is free. If your free remote diagnostic identifies a fault that needs the remote fix charge, you pay only the fix charge from £75. If it needs on-site work, you pay the on-site visit fee from £245 minimum. You're not paying twice — the diagnostic itself is genuinely free either way.
All work is completed to a high standard using parts with manufacturer guarantees. Components we install carry the manufacturer warranty (typically 2–5 years depending on the part). Our labour is warrantied for 12 months from completion — if we make an error, we return to put it right at no cost. We also work to protect your existing inverter or battery manufacturer warranty throughout the repair.
Book the free diagnostic anyway. We'll review your system, your symptoms, and any quotes you've received from other engineers. If everything is fine or someone else has quoted you fairly, we tell you. If something is wrong or someone has overquoted you, we explain that too. Free either way — no obligation, no pressure to book follow-on work.
Commercial and B2B customers operate on a paid-from-the-start model — engineering time is billed regardless of fault outcome. Annual O&M contracts start from £795 per system per year. Emergency repair, system takeover, and independent audit work is priced per engagement (POA). The no-fix-no-fee policy applies only to homeowners using the free remote diagnostic.
