Why It Matters

What Checkatrade verifies before approving a trade

A Checkatrade score is not like a Google review where anyone can type anything. Every review is confirmed. Every business is checked. Here's what passing that check requires.

🪪

Identity Verification

Business owners and key personnel are identity-checked before the listing is approved. You know exactly who is coming to your home.

✓ Solar4Good Verified
🛡️

Insurance Confirmation

Public liability insurance of at least £2 million must be confirmed and kept current. Any lapse triggers listing suspension.

✓ Solar4Good Verified
🏅

MCS Certification

For solar installers, MCS certification is mandatory. Without it, installations cannot access government incentives or export payments.

✓ MCS: NAP/72775/25/4
⚖️

CCJ Check

A County Court Judgement check is run on the business. Outstanding CCJs prevent listing approval — a meaningful financial integrity filter.

✓ Solar4Good Clear
📋

Qualifications Review

Relevant trade qualifications must be confirmed. For solar: NAPIT registration and MCS-mandated installer training are required.

✓ NAPIT Registered
🔍

Review Authentication

Before any review is published, Checkatrade contacts the customer directly to confirm the work was done. No anonymous reviews.

✓ All 168 Confirmed

★★★★★
Solar + Battery

"I recently had my solar system installed and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience! From the first consultation to the final switch-on, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly easy to work with. They answered all my questions, kept me updated at every stage, and made the whole process stress-free

Solar Panels

"Great service. Good communication, professional and knowledgeable team who came to install panels and battery. Were very helpful to try and make the route of wiring work for us too. The installation looks exactly as I hoped it would."

Solar Panels

"The installation itself was clean and efficient, and the system looks great on my roof. I've already started seeing the benefits on my energy usage. If you're considering going solar, I highly recommend Solar4Good. Manan was outstanding from first call to final switch-on."

Commercial Solar

"Professional, transparent, and reliable from start to finish. Florence Care Homes had 56 panels installed. The system now generates between 24,000–26,000 kWh annually, covering 35–40% of our energy needs. ROI is on track for under 6 years. Highly recommended."

The Pattern

How Solar4Good earns 9.7/10 consistently

Looking across 168 reviews, five things come up again and again. These are not corporate talking points — they're the words real customers used.

01

Clean, professional installation teams

Reviewers repeatedly comment on tidy workmanship, respect for the property, and efficient single-day completions. Named installer Jamie is mentioned across dozens of reviews. The crew leaves the site as they found it.

02

Honest, knowledgeable advisors

Director Manan Shah is named across all product categories. Reviewers note he answers questions clearly and doesn't pressurise. George, Tristan, Frederick, and Faisal also appear frequently by name.

03

Communication at every stage

From first enquiry to post-installation, customers say they were kept informed. Multiple reviews specifically mention same-day or next-day responses to queries — unusual in the solar sector.

04

Transparent, competitive pricing

Several reviews mention Solar4Good offered the best price of multiple quotes obtained, with no hidden costs discovered. The price-match guarantee gives buyers confidence before they commit.

05

Aftercare that actually exists

Reviews mention follow-up calls, help setting up monitoring apps, and quick responses to post-installation questions. In a sector where aftercare is often weak, this is mentioned as a genuine differentiator.

06

No subcontractors

Solar4Good uses its own employed installation teams — not subcontracted labour. This means the people who surveyed your roof are the same people who install on it. Continuity and accountability.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Solar4Good is a verified and approved member of Checkatrade under the profile 'solar4gooduklimited'. Checkatrade verifies business credentials, insurance, and MCS certification before approving any listing, and all 168 reviews are confirmed before publication. You can view the full profile directly at checkatrade.com/trades/solar4gooduklimited.
When a customer submits a review, Checkatrade contacts them directly to confirm the work was carried out. The review is only published once this verification is completed. This process prevents fake reviews — making Checkatrade more reliable than platforms where anyone can post anonymously without having used the business.
Checkatrade scores are calculated from verified customer ratings across multiple service categories: quality of work, reliability, tidiness, courtesy, and customer service. A 9.7 from 168 reviews is a consistently strong score — not the result of a small sample or a single great job. It reflects years of consistent performance across hundreds of different homes, buildings, and installation types.
Across 168 Checkatrade reviews, the vast majority are maximum score. On Trustpilot (657+ reviews), there is one 1-star review relating to a battery configuration issue. Solar4Good responded in full, describing the specific resolution steps taken. How a company handles problems is often more revealing than the problems themselves — and Solar4Good's response demonstrates exactly the kind of aftercare that the positive reviews also describe.
Both platforms are reliable but in different ways. Trustpilot allows customers to submit reviews freely, which means higher volume but less individual verification. Checkatrade verifies each reviewer's identity and confirms the work was done before publishing. For trades work specifically, Checkatrade's verification process is particularly valuable because it confirms the work actually happened and was completed by that company.
Yes — click the "Get Your Free Survey" button below. You can choose to book a call, request a video survey, or schedule a site visit. The survey is completely free and there is no obligation to proceed. Solar4Good covers all of the UK, and most surveys are scheduled within 5–7 working days.
