Frequently Asked Questions

Hiring solar installers

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.

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.

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.
