I recently had a solar system installed by Solbase and couldn’t be happier with the experience from start to finish. The pre-sales process was outstanding. Max took the time to understand my requirements, explain the various options available, and clearly outline the pros and cons of each solution. His transparency, honesty, and willingness to… Read more

answer questions gave me confidence that I was making the right decision. There was never any pressure—just genuine advice, a very competitive price, and excellent customer service. Max also stayed engaged throughout the installation process, ensuring everything progressed smoothly and following through on every commitment.

A special mention also goes to Hamza, who led the installation. His knowledge, experience, and attention to detail were evident throughout the project. He took the time to explain the system, answered all my questions, and completed the installation to a very high standard. It’s clear that he takes great pride in his work and has extensive expertise in solar systems and inverters.

The entire Solbase team was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. From initial consultation through to installation and handover, the experience exceeded my expectations.

I highly recommend Solbase to anyone considering solar. If you’re looking for a team that combines technical expertise, transparency, competitive pricing, and outstanding customer service, Solbase is an excellent choice.

We had Solbase quote and install 13kw of solar panels with a 16kw battery using Sigenergy components. The whole process went smoothly except for the issue of the NSW Gov removing the battery rebate due to the Federal Gov battery rebate but we came to an agreement on this. The system is working really well and I highly recommend Solbase to anyone looking for a solar system. Show details

We previously installed our 10kw solar PV system with Solbase in 2021 and were very happy with the experience and performance of the system. Recently we got proposals and quotes for a 10kwh battery installation from several companies and decided to… Read more

go again with Solbase on its own independent merits for this installation based on price, system and sales experience. Their sales consultant Felix was excellent, prompt and informative in advice. Managed to answer all my complex questions. Once ordered, the project scheduler and coordinator Shirin was proactive with updates and managed to expedite installation ahead of schedule even though I was aware of backorders for solar batteries in Australia. The installer Hamzah came a few days before to inspect and plan with me, and on the day of installation was very consultative, communicative, expedient and neat. He did a great job and explained everything as we progressed. Shirin even showed up in person to see how things were going. System was installed, configured and even after the installation Shirin continued to communicate with me to support any clarifications. Although newer to the AU market, the EsySunHome HM6-10 system equipped with 6kwh inverter and 10.24 kwh storage was stylish and neat. We will monitor the performance against specs. The app easy to use, understand with many control features and functions. Overall, very happy again with the second experience with Solbase and their team. I highly recommend them if you are considering your solar or battery installations.

 Follow-up  · With the aggressive government subsidies, go for a step up capacity. The ESYsunhome battery has operated to expectation and the app is easy to use and comprehensive. I like the ability to control charge and discharge configurations.

Great team with engineering skills – I have been referred to Solbase by a friend last year. Before signing, i did a thorough research and chosen to go with their recommendation. Ricky was very detailed and answered all my questions and he arranged a site visit and the installer explained the overall process . The overall process was very smooth from start to finish. 7 months after… Read more

Customer - Focused Business – I intentionally wrote this review just now in relation to my solar systems that was installed in December 2022. With the advancement in solar system technologies, I decided that it was time to get one installed. I did my research and already had preferences for solar panels and solar inverter brands. I chose 3 system installers that had good… Read more ·  1

reviews and years of experience to submit their quotations.

There were very good answers and reasoning to the many technical questions I had and in particular the differences on their quoted solar system costs.

I chose Solbase Solar initially because Dan has given me that customer-centric values in acknowledging what I want and what I value. He listened actively and tailored the solar system to meet my specific needs and preferences. This was also evident when the Solbase installation team provided quality and timely service.

Lastly, without a doubt I am happy with the performance of my solar system to date and Solbase Solar's customer centric business approach.

An excellent purchase and customer experience from start to job completion – This was a more substantial solar installation which we had considered previously but not pursued because of inadequate information and concerns expressed surrounding the difficulty of the installation. My discussions with Solbase had been completely different. It has been delightful dealing with Felix, Sherin and Hamza. Not only did I get answers… Read more ·  1

to all the queries that I had, I was also very reassured by their careful planning and the care and respect that they demonstrated during the installation process. The installation was top class. Solbase have my highest recommendation.

Pretty happy with end result! – This is day after installation review for my 10.45kw solar. I give 4.5 stars! I initially went searching for few quotes on solarquotes.com.au and Solbase was one of the companies who called. The initial stages of enquiry was easy and I got Steve who was persistant with follow ups but really lovely, any questions I had he had all the answers. It… Read more ·  1

took me over few months which company I’d go with and also getting finances ready. Steve was patient and I chose Solbase based on the service level I was getting, quick call backs and emails and nonetheless they are the cheapest in the market for Solar! My best friend does Solar and still couldn’t match on price and products I was after! I had jinko panels and sungrow inverter.

The installers on the day were all great and on time, respectful of property. Few bits of rubbish left behind but nothing major. And I had negotiated black railings and ended up with silver but as long as system is working fine long term that’s the main thing!

The sungrow inverter and app is really simple and great to use. Today is day one so will see how much I can save on next bill!

I highly recommend solbase so far and my experience dealing with the company!

Very competitive prices and informative along the way – We got quite a few quotes from different businesses when we were organising our solar panel installation. Solbase was very affordable and flexible, giving us quotes for different brands of panels and inverters and providing expected returns for each of these quotes. The panels and inverters were installed above our expectations, they look… Read more ·  1

incredible and made sure to leave enough space around our evaporative air-conditioner for servicing needs. We would highly recommend contacting SolBase if you're in the market for solar panels.

Fantastic experience! I highly recommend them! – Fantastic experience! Solbase made my solar installation a seamless experience. Their team showed outstanding professionalism from start to finish. I want to extend a special thank you for their patience and detailed responses to all our questions, which helped us grasp each step of the solar process. We particularly valued their willingness to provide guidance without pressuring us to make quick decisions. I highly recommend them!

Do not use this company – We had solar panels installed over a year ago June 2023 which were not installed to initial layout and I wasn't informed that it would be changed to this, I found out by looking on the roof. Then found out they hadn't been connected at all. I have been chasing them since May for this and finally connected July 2024. Now there wanting to reimburse… Read more

based from my first bill connected in August so low sun. I have been talking to [Name Removed] who decided to laugh at my lack of understanding then continuously talk over me to try and back out of it. To say I'm an frustrated is an understatement. I've spent a lot of money and time on this when it should have been well sorted by now. Then offered $134 as compensation for the hours of chasing and sitting on hold. Seams like it's not even worth having them.

Solbase are rubbish – Additional panels ordered with inverter to add to existing system with the battery to be also installed to the existing system. The system was installed as an independent system and has not run correctly since. PNI Pty Ltd t/as Solbase are refusing to correct their faulty workmanship. They knew the additional panels and inverter were to be added… Read more

to the existing system but still they installed it as a separate system. They know that an SEM-E component was to be installed so that the inverters run in parallel and the battery modules were to be in one stack of 6 but they first said that Growatt did not have the software, then they said Growatt did not stock the SEM-E component and now they don't even answer the emails sent to them. Anyone out there looking to install solar panels stay away from Solbase and the installers they use. A formal complaint was made to Fair Trading whereby they made an offer to correct the installation. The offer was made in or around October 2023, it is now January 2024 and they have done absolutely nothing to correct the installation. There has been no contact. STAY AWAY FROM THIS LOT THEY ARE FLY BY NIGHTERS.

Great job, well done! – From the very start, the team at Solbase were very helpful and efficient. Felix communicated in a timely manner, and answered all my questions. The team that installed our system arrived promptly, were able to act on our request to rearrange the panels slightly, and had the job done efficiently and with skill. Everything was explained well before… Read more ·  1

Great product, price and service – I was referred to Solbase by a friend. They were easy to deal with and fast to answer my questions.

Fantastic, glad I chose it but a couple of pointers for others – I recommend this company but a couple of pointers: Make certain that the plans for the panels are agreed upon. In the plans that I was given I questioned the panels on a southern roofline and was told that it would be sorted on-site. As this was a beach house I wasn’t present but a neighbour said that they started to put the panels on the southern… Read more

side before they realised their error. Not a problem really except for all the holes left in the roof. Second, I can’t get the data to link with my phone. This isn’t a big issue really and it will be sorted over time but it is slightly frustrating. All in all, excellent, honest service.

Great experience using Solbase – Honestly found the solar market very hard to navigate with quotes for a 9kw system ranging from $12k to $30k. There were so many solar cells, inverters and other items to select with seemingly vastly different pricing for the same product. I’m the end the team at Solbase came through with a great price and offered multiple options to choose… Read more ·  1

from. With a little research I settled on Solbase for the job and after some short delays in obtaining an inverter due to covid issue the team installed the system.

Since then the power bill have all have a credit on the account so ultimately very happy with the product and Install service Solbase provided. It’s been 9 months since they completed the install and haven’t had any issues. Very happy and would highly recommend.

Solar panel & Zappi charger – The electrician/technician (Wilson) and his team that did the install was fantastic.

Clean and efficient solar power – The 16 x 415W panels are almost invisible on the roof. They give 6.6kW to fully cover our daytime usage with some power to spare. Highly recommend the installers, they did the full install of all panels, inverter, connection to main switchboard, meter, and tested all in the one day. Show details
