Pricing guide
Costs vary mainly with the inverter type and how many units are being replaced. Hybrid or battery-capable inverters and per-panel microinverter jobs generally increase materials and labour because they need extra commissioning and more roof work. Timing (for example after-hours attendance) and any required switchboard upgrades or registration work can also affect the final cost.
Inverter type and specification
Higher-spec or battery-capable inverters typically add material costs and require more commissioning time than standard units.
Number of units to replace
Microinverter replacements scale per panel, so total materials and labour rise proportionally with unit count.
Timing and after-hours attendance
Attendance outside standard hours or urgent call-outs generally attracts higher labour or call-out rates than routine daytime work.
Estimated range
$3,455 – $15,575
