Andrew and the team are awesome and highly recommended. I was very skeptical about the solar industry and was cautious with who I chose to assure I would be getting the best service and product from someone that will be around in years to come to assist and warrant any issues that may occur. Andrew went above and beyond to assist me quickly and the process was smooth with a better and quicker result then expected. Can't recommend him highly enough. Thank you again!read more

When I was reviewing quotes, I was surprised how wide the price range was, some more than double others. However I was looking for a quality inverter and panels that will maximize the power generation trouble free. Similarly, the installation quality was equally important considering the equipment will be on the roof for 20yrs or more. Andrew presented good information and you are doing well if you can keep up with his knowledge on the matter. Andrew was also personally involved with the installation on the day and lead the project. He was also the only one that encouraged me so using a smart meter that will allow you to educate your household on your generation versus useage at any given time to the exact kilowattSo for me it made sense not to follow the lowest price, but obtain quality equipment, installation piece of mind and knowledge.read more

Andrew, just want to say thank you for an excellent experience. I did my homework by talking to three friends who I didn't know had you install their Solar systems and they all spoke very highly of your workmanship. It's evident solar as much a passion as it is your business. I've had very few folks do work on my house that have been as straightforward and honest! Thanks again.read more

Great Service experience: Solar Bank installed a system about 18 months ago. Very happy. Recently some electrical work was carried out on our pool filter/ pump. What ever they did not only blew up all my pool electrics but I also noticed they somehow stuffed up our solar system. As a result I called SolarBank to see if they could help. The next morning a technician came out to see what the problem was. They replaced the breaker which did not solve the problem. They then placed a call with Fronius for a replacement unit. Replacement arrived a few days later. Technician returned the next morning to install. All up a working in less then a week. All under warranty. A follow-up call to make sure everything was working. Solarbank stepped up to help when something when wrong. A great support experience. (The pool / filter still not working and they will not come out for another week.) Well Done SolarBank team.read more

I don't usually do reviews but this time I wish to record Solarbank's and Andrew's exceptional perfromance in the installation of a 12.5 KW system which included micro inverters.After choosing three possible suppliers for quotes from the CEC list of approved installers, I settled on Solarbank as the most professional of the group.Andrew gave me an installation date at least 5 weeks prior to the day which he kept to. His team were spot on and left the premises as clean as when they arrived. Andrew's follow up and document handling has also been first class.Needless to say I am a happy customer..read more

After a bit of research in this industry, its pretty apparent there are some dodgy operators out there. Andrew at Solarbank was very professional and gave sound advice on the best system for our home and the type of energy plan we should look at following installation. Installers were friendly and respectful. Not the cheapest but from what I read re solar systems, you get what you pay for in this business.read more

Totally recommend! I was originally looking at a cheaper system but I am so glad that I went with Solar Bank and their quality approach. I can vouch that these guys know what they are talking about and they were totally professional.

Andrew and his team were fantastic! Reliable, professional and quality workmanship sums up Solarbank. We have a complicated site and I am electro-magnetic sensitive. Andrew took the time to assess what we really needed, answered all my questions and recommended a great solution which ended up being better and more cost effective (both up-front and in the long run) than what we initially looked at with other companies. The installation was timely, smooth and neatly completed in a day. Andrew came back to do further adjustments (at no extra cost) upon my request without any hesitation and he was a pleasure to work with. Andrew really cares about his customer’s needs, unlike other companies which are more focused on the sale. We highly recommend Solarbank to anyone looking to install a solar power system.read more

We're extremely pleased with our overall experience with Solarbank.From the first site visit, through the quotation process and the installation itself, Andrew was always accessible and thoroughly professional.A 17kw system with a tight install window, in the lead-up to Christmas, with threatening weather all around us, Andrew's installation team was super focussed, hard working and well organised.Also, considering the amount of gear needed to install the system, they left our place looking spotless.Andrew has also been helpful with our post installation questions .Recommend this company!read more

I would give 6 stars if I could.Andrew helped me understand the benefits of solar, how it all works in layman terms (not as simple as you think!) answered all of my many questions, and guided us through the process.His installation team were just as professional, courteous, and extremely efficient.They even went out of their way to source and colour match 2nd hand roof tiles (mine are no long produced and available to buy new), to replace the previously cracked tiles on my roof which we were unknowingly living with prior to the install, without any hesitation. What fantastic service!Thank you Solarbank team!read more

Andrew and his SolarBank team recently completed a residential install for us. Andrew provided us with a detailed quote and then spent the time to go through the quote, compare options and guide me through what the process was for installation. On the day of installation they arrived on time, were very friendly, professional and polite. The job was done quickly and efficiently even though the team had to deal with my toddler stealing their tools and asking "questions" about everything. I would HIGHLY recommend Solarbank for your solar solutions as the quality and professionalism is worth every cent! Great work guys, and thanks!read more

Abysmal service and attitude. Do not pay the deposit of $550 up front before you see the documentation which is what the pushy salesman Stuart did to me.

Solarbank installed a 15.6kW system for us, with 40 panels spread across multiple aspects of our roof and our granny flat roof too! This needed two inverters and optimisers for every panel! Andrew's knowledge of the technological options was outstanding and honest which gave us lots of confidence in the Solarbank team. The job was even more complex as our roof has curved european terracotta tiles which needed extra attention to get the brackets installed. Would highly recommend the Solarbank team to anyone wanting a professional and high quality job!read more

Andrew and his Solarbank team provided exceptional quality and service with my first venture into solar power. He was able to answer all my questions, include the very basic ones, with clarity using a “language” that was easy to understand. His team (some of who need singing lessons) arrived on time, we’re open, friendly and completed the job on time (one day) leaving a clean work site. The benefits of solar are already being realised…. and it’s winter! Highly recommend Solarbank for all solar requirements…read more

Solar Bank installed a 10.34 kw system (27 panels) to our house. The boys that installed the system were very polite and efficient in installing the system. Andrew was extremely professional in his sales approach (no hard sell). He is very knowledgeable and was able to communicate the setup and workings of the system effectively. A small adjustment was necessary after completion. This occurred very quickly within a few days. We highly recommend Solar Bank at Cromer, and we couldn’t be happier with the system.Kevin and Julieread more

Andrew at Solarbank was professional and informative. He walked me through the options and advised on the best set up for us. He was accommodating when the scheduled install was delayed due to COVID lock down and always available when I had follow up requests. In an industry that has a bad reputation for shonky operators in to make a quick buck, I would recommend Andrew for a hassle free experience from start to finish.read more
