    Just by chance I met Mark, Gecko Solar manager, while while on a bushwalk in Inverloch, VIC. I shared with him my concern that so far I was not able to secure a quote for solar installation at our place in Fitzroy. Mark showed an interest, and sure enough, we closed a deal for 4.6KW installation. Now, the installation proved a challenge. The address is in a heritage area, so there was only a limited space on the roof for the panels. As the roof is pitched and on the second floor, there was a challenge to safely perform the installation, especially with the wintry wet and windy conditions. Excellent service was provided by Mark and his team in spite of all these issues. We now enjoy a significant relief in our dependence on grid electricity. I highly recommend Gecko Solar as a professional supplier.

    Gecko supplied a great system, had an excellent team of installers and were very easy to deal with. I would certainly recommend them to anyone who is looking to buy a solar system.

    Dealing with Gecko was great and no pressure was applied. The installation was completed in a very professional and timely manner. Would recommend Gecko to anyone considering installing solar.

    The system was installed according to the requirements I had laid out and is generating power as expected. Both Mark and the installers were lovely and very easy to deal with!

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.
