    Excellent service, highly recommend these guys! I emailed the team 3 weeks ago and our solar panels are already installed, checked and ready to go! Christopher offered the best deal we could find and signing was a very easy process online. Cathy in admin was always prompt to answer our questions, and Thomas and the guys who installed everything very efficient and professional. The inspector who checked the install said it was a very well done very neat job. Thank you Solar 1 Electrical!

    The team at Solar 1 provided me with excellent service from the get-go. I would highly recommend them for their workmanship and friendly demeanor and the timely manner in which they provided the solar panels. Locally owned is also important in supporting Bendigo's economy and it's great to see excellent local tradesmen providing A1 service

    Solar1 is a great business to deal with. Very responsive. Took the time to explain it all to me. I didn't qualify for the grants unfortunately as l am on a embedded system, but they still worked with me to get a system installed that was both affordable and effective. Installation was quick and the installers made sure l understood how the inverter worked before they left. I look forward to many years of savings. You can't go wrong with Peter and the team.

    The staff has been great. I upgraded my system from the original quote and staff has been responsive every step of the way. The installation went smoothly and even the inspector said that he’s inspected their work before and that Solar1 knows what they are doing. It’s also peace of mind because I know this company is not fly by night and they use components that are reliable with a good reputation. They were also responsive to my schedule when I said I needed to repair a leak in the roof before I could get them to install the system. I read the free book on Solarquotes and knew what to watch out for and Solar 1 ticked all the boxes. I dealt with Leah, Cathy and Andrew. First rate service.

    Solar1 Electrical was great all throughout the process. Leah came to my property and talked me through the solar system, what she thought would be best and answered all my questions. Very informative. Cathy kept in contact throughout payment and scheduling for the job and was open to further questions on the government rebate, and the install was done smoothly by Shane on the day in very hot weather! There were some initial problems getting the solar export meter configuration sorted due to the new backstop regulations, but this was looked into and resolved quickly. Everything is working as expected from here, really happy with how it all went!

    Frankly without Leah at Solar 1 Electrical I would still be floundering around in the solar sphere. I had tried a couple of times with other companies who were keen to sell me something, only to back away when they realised it wasn't going to be a straight forward install, (and couldn't be bothered to really explain why). I'd started to wonder if solar was going to possible for me. I decided to give Solar Quotes a try and Leah was very prompt at getting in touch, she listened to my story and then came back to me with a couple of options. Solar 1 pricing was comparable to other quotes but it was Leah's willingness to spend the time going through my options, answering my questions and guiding me through the rebate process, that really stood out. Nothing was too much trouble and it was the same with everyone I dealt with from Cathy in admin through to the installation team. I couldn't be happier with my decision to go with Solar 1!

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.
