Case studies

"When we moved into the property last year we wanted to put in some form of renewable energy to replace the existing oil boiler. The main reason for this is because we want to be as environmentally friendly as possible.

We discovered Capture when enquiring whether it would be possible for Dave Eastman to do some building work for us. Mr. Eastman had done some work for us before and his reputation is second to none, so we were excited at the prospect of Capture providing us with a renewable energy solution.

We were provided with a comprehensive report on the feasibility of all renewable technologies and accepted Capture's proposal of a wood burning stove and a solar water heating system as best suited to our own needs.

The cylinder had to be fitted into a very confined space and we were extremely impressed with the way the installation team managed to work around this.

We have been very pleased with the amount of hot water the solar system has provided us with over the autumn and winter and would certainly recommend Capture to anyone else."

"I had always intended to install a solar water heating system when I replaced my boiler, as I'm concerned about the environment and want to save as much money as I can on my bills.

I spoke to Cornwall Sustainable Energy Partnership, who gave me a list of local installers. I contacted several of them for quotes.I ended up choosing Capture because I was impressed by the advice they gave, their promptness in getting back to me and also found their quote to be very competitive.

I had previously had work done by Dave Eastman of Tolvaddon Building Services (Capture's Construction Director) and so had great faith that the work would be carried out to a high standard and that Capture would be there in future should anything go wrong."

“I decided to install a solar energy system as I have been keen on the idea of renewable energy for some time. I like the idea of being independent of the “big, wide world” and also see energy prices increasing dramatically in the next ten years. 

I looked into various renewable options and eventually decided that solar thermal would be the most cost-effective  option for my family’s property. I received a quote from a national company, but was put off by the “double glazing type sales spiel”. I was impressed by how knowledgeable Capture were, the quality of the advice I was given and their straightforward “no nonsense” sales approach.

Capture took complete care of my planning application. The installation process was extremely efficient and I found the installation team to be co-operative, clean and unobtrusive. From a financial point of view, I believe that the savings I am receiving on my energy bills represent a better return on my capital than I would have achieved from leaving my money in the bank.   I would have no hesitation in recommending Capture”
