    Geoff and his team at BetterVolt, have provided excellent advice and solar solutions to Susan and myself for many years. Geoff has over a decade of design experience and has in the few last years set up his company BetterVolt to better service the solar requirements of this region, reflect his enthusiasm and allow him to implement his vision for renewables. I've recommended BetterVolt to the people in this area looking for a solar solution and everyone has been very satisfied with their outcome.

    Geoff is very knowledgeable and up to date with the latest developments in solar energy solutions. Bettervolt has installed my solar system and then at a later date, my battery. The process was smooth and efficient. I have no hesitation in recommending Geoff and Bettervolt to anyone considering installing or upgrading a solar energy system.

    Geoff Tosio from Better Volt designed and installed our solar system and we couldn't be happier. He took lots of time to understand our current and future power needs and designed a system we can easily add EV charging. It's been a great investment and has reduced our power costs to such a small amount. Geoff provides excellent follow up support and is always available for advice & information. Batteries next for us and of course, we'll use Better Volt.

    I recently had BetterVolt install a solar system with batteries for my home in Urunga. Geoff Tosio and his team are extremely knowledgeable and competent, and the equipment and technology they promote are of very high quality. I had done a lot of research on what I wanted and Geoff took onboard my wishes, particularly with panel selection and also future requirements such as EV changing. On top of that, I felt a genuine honesty and passion for solar technology that gave me confidence to make decisions. Even now, during the shortest days of the year, my system keeps me off the grid for about 12 hours. I consider that a great investment. And Geoff continues to provide follow up, ensuring that my system is operating to a high standard. I highly recommend BetterVolt for your solar installation.

Frequently asked questions

How much do solar installers typically charge?
Solar costs vary widely depending on system size, equipment choices, roof access and whether additional electrical upgrades or battery work are required. Simple panel adds or routine maintenance are typically much less involved than full system installs or battery integrations. This page shows live pricing to help compare current rates alongside the specific scope of your job.
Do solar installers charge call-out fees?
Yes — call-out fees are common for solar installers and are often charged to cover attendance and an initial assessment. Call-outs are usually separate from hourly labour and materials, and after-hours or emergency visits typically attract higher rates. Confirm whether a call-out fee is included or listed separately when comparing quotes.
Do solar installers need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Solar installation work is required to be carried out by a licensed installer in every Australian state and territory, and in NSW installers are licensed through NSW Fair Trading. Many installers also hold industry credentials such as Clean Energy Council accreditation and may display a valid state electrical contractor licence on quotes, as well as public liability insurance. These credentials can help indicate the installer has relevant training and compliance practices.
