Pricing guide
Costs are driven by system type, access requirements and how much component replacement is needed. Panel‑level systems (microinverters/optimisers) typically increase labour time and parts risk, while rooftop specialist jobs often require hired lifting equipment or multi‑technician attendance. Callout fees and after‑hours attendance also typically increase the overall cost.
Panel‑level vs string systems
Systems with microinverters or optimisers usually require panel lifting and per‑module parts, increasing labour and materials risk.
Roof access and hired equipment
Steep roofs or jobs needing an EWP, crane or scaffold generally add planning, specialist crew and time.
Extent of electrical repair or replacement
Minor repairs and consumables fit a standard diagnostic visit, whereas inverter or major component replacement typically becomes a specialist job.
Number of technicians and visits
Multi‑technician attendance or return visits usually increase labour and coordination compared with a single technician visit.
Timing and callout conditions
Callout fees are normally added separately, and after‑hours attendance typically attracts a higher rate.
