Business Information
DS Solar Maintenance Ltd is a family run renewable energy installer based in Ipswich, with more than fourteen years in the industry. We fit solar PV, battery storage and EV charge points, and we look after systems once they are up with panel cleaning, nano coating, bird protection and gutter clearing, so a system carries on earning rather than quietly losing output.
We are MCS certified and NAPIT registered, and we hold HIES consumer protection. We own our own access equipment, which means a job does not always need expensive scaffolding hired in, and an installation can be on the roof in as little as three weeks. We will also talk you through the Smart Export Guarantee, so the power you do not use is sold back to the grid rather than given away. We cover Ipswich, Suffolk, Norfolk, Essex and London, roughly seventy miles from our base.

I’ve had solar panels on my roof for almost two years now, and honestly, it’s one of the better decisions I’ve made. DS solar was recommended to us by our neighbour. Company was very efficient, tidy, clean with respect for my home and the job in hand. They helped me to register system with my supplier. Excellent from the first contact to completing the transaction.

Great service and very good value for money after going through numerous quotes. The system has been working excellently. Support was offered at every stage of the process from MPAN to exporting. I have an Ev now and given home charging and savings I am confident I will be in profit after 3.5 years.

We recently used this company to install our solar panels. We did a lot of research; there were slightly cheaper but a lot more expensive firms out there but this one we liked mainly because they were associated with another company that we knew of and had been trading for a long time so knew they must be good.
From the first interaction with Joe who came round to chat to us about the Solar Panels there was a lot of information provided but he did dumb it down for us quite a lot but ultimately the whole experience was positive and they were quick to provide a quote and even did a bit of bartering as well when we found some cheaper options.
They quickly provided us with a date of installation and they were prompt to turn up on the day.
The communication was excellent.
The install was seamless and the whole team were amazing. Now you probably think after Installation is done that you’d hardly hear from them if you have questions but I can tell you now that they’re after sales communication was excellent – lots of questions, lots of queries and I probably frustrated them a lot with all the questions and re-asking of questions as well but they were always quick to reply, always happy to provide the information and have even offered to come out and help me with the app that you download for the fox system just to make sure there’s no other questions that we have.
Overall, as said, a fantastic experience, a very professional company and I would highly recommend speaking to them if you want to get solar panels installed.
