About LCP Solar
What We Do
LCP Solar, in accordance with legislation, is a registered electrical contractor.
We make no secret of the fact that LCP Solar does not install “cheap and nasty” and off-the-shelf solutions. We undertake a detailed analysis of our client’s requirements and design bespoke systems according to their needs.
Our design considerations and installations mostly exceed national standards.
Installation workmanship is warranted for 5 years – that says a lot.
