    ‼️Redshift Solar has Gavin’s steady and reliable hand on its helm. He’ll upgrade your aging, off-grid solar system (as I needed), and replace it with the newest technology, latest batteries and auto connect to the back up generator. Add wi-fi monitoring and control and one has off-grid, off-property, peace of mind. A shout out to Redshift’s Rory - a very polite, keen and smart apprentice.

    Gavin and the team at Redshift Solar are the ultimate professionals. Gavin went out of his way to explain the various options available before we decided on a system. The installation phase was trouble free and nothing was too much trouble, Gavin's attention to detail is second to none and his after Sales Service is great. If you are after a good honest and trustworthy solar installer, you can't go past Gavin and the Redshift team, Highly Recommended.

    The most professional tradesman we've ever had! We have used Gavin's services on a number of occasions and for a few years now. We had Redshift Solar install a state of the art solar power system with battery. Gavin provided invaluable guidance and advice on the type and size of the system and helped us make the right choice for our usage and needs. 4 months on and the performance of the system continues to exceed our expectations. Gavin is extremely knowledgeable, patient and respectful to his clients and their property. He takes pride in delivering the best possible outcome for his clients, his work was immaculate with minimal disruption to the home. We cannot recommend the company enough!

    What a great company. This is our second review for Redshift, we had Redshift install a solar monitoring system for us, and Gavin truly went above and beyond, even inspecting the existing solar system (installed by another company) free of charge and providing us with a comprehensive email containing pictures and detailed descriptions of the defects found. Not only did Gavin keep us informed every step of the way, but he offered a great price and performed excellent quality work. Very highly recommended. Will be using Redshift now for all our future work. Ten stars!

    If you would like solid, trustworthy advice, with Solar and any electrical work for that matter, talk to Gavin. With plenty of cowboys in the solar game, it could be a minefield of conflicting information out there - Gavin has the patience to make all aspects clear and ensure you have all the facts before committing. Zero pressure. His attention to detail is second to none, hence he might be spending quite a number of days on installations to ensure everything is perfect - unlike those companies that tries to install everything in one day and then move on to the next job.

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.
Does Redshift Solar have a verified ABN?
Yes. Redshift Solar has completed ABN verification on SureQuote.
