Great team at Brightworks
What a pleasure to deal with a professional business. They came highly recommended, and we could not be happier with their high level of genuine service and care. From quote to installation Anthony and Alexandra proactively communicated clearly, in language we understood, every part of the entire process so that there were no surprises. Very happy with our choice of system and indeed Brightworks. Highly recommend them.Panel rating: 5/5

Great service!
I had a fantastic experience with Brightworks Solar. Alex, Anthony and the team were highly professional and made the process so easy! Anthony provided a thorough, in-person quote, and Alex kept me informed every step of the way. They use high quality inverters and panels and the installation went really smoothly. Great service from a local family business—I highly recommend them!Panel rating: 5/5

Great Installer
The process sales/quoting process was fast and efficient with a couple of phone calls with a profesional and experianced sales person, they came to visit the site in the same week to make sure there wern't going to be any extras or difficulties.They arrived when they said they would, were able to complete the 30 panel and AC car charger install in around 8 hours, the double brick walls were a challange but they still achived a very neat install.
Customer service was excellent with the grid connection all sorted in the days before install and a follow up call the day after.
Will use them again if we need to upgrade or add a battery.

Highly recommend Brightworks for your solar install. Alex was great to deal with from the start, explained everything very well and not pushy at all.

Seamless Process
My experience with Brightworks Solar was was really first rate.After my initial approach through SolarQuotes, Alex was straight back to me with an initial quote, followed very promptly by a site visit by Anthony who actually climbed on the roof with me and went through options and the process in detail.
Alex was amazing with her prompt replies and updates leading up to our install.
Anthony and the team on the day were really professional and took time to answer all my annoying questions.
I have no hesitation in recommending Brightworks solar for a truly professional and seamless solar installation and look forward to using them again for a potential battery upgrade.

These guys go above and beyond - would definitely recommend!
Brightworks were great to deal with and I'd definitely recommend.Alex went above and beyond through the whole process but particularly when dealing with the council. Our house had heritage overlay and we required a permit for street facing panels. This whole process was not straightforward (and if left to me possibly never gets done) and Alex handled it all on our behalf. No extra charge for submitting forms / time on phone to council etc. All part of their excellent service.
The team were punctual and courteous on the install day and Anthony hung around until I was home from work to run through it all with me.
Post install checking in and ensuring everything working as expected also greatly appreciated. Alex ensured the grid connection happened as quickly as possible lodging everything on our behalf.

Very good
Alex and Anthony were both very helpful and professional and we are very happy with our solar panel installation.11 April 2025
Can't recommend enough, thanks Brightworks!
We just had the solar panels and an EV charger installed by Brightworks. The chief electrician, Anthony, and his wife Alexandra are the best and nicest people to deal with. Even though we did get a cheaper quote from another installer, I’ve had absolutely no regret going with Brightworks due to their superb customer service and professional workmanship.When Anthony came to inspect the site (noting that not all installers will bother to check the site before they give you a quote) he was so patient in the way he explained how the different components would work together and what our options were based on the house layout and our expectations. Alexandra was reliably responsive to all my questions and requests for different quotes. On the day of the installation, the team that came to our house (headed by Anthony himself) were courteous, quiet and wasted no time to have the entire system installed before mid afternoon, and left no mess for me to clean up whatsoever. I can’t say enough good things about this company and would highly recommend them to anyone.

Anthony is fantastic, thanks Brightworks!
We are happy to recommend Brightworks Solar. We went through an exhaustive process to identify a contractor to install and upgrade our solar system. We landed on Brightworks because of their thorough quoting process undertaken by Anthony. We were impressed with their business model compared to several others who quoted for our work. Brightworks did not let us down and demonstrated thoroughness, great communication, prompt attention and flexibility. Their price and the equipment that they recommended and installed was very competitive. The team arrived on time, were thorough and professional, cleaned up and diligently explained the operation. They set us up with the App to monitor the performance of our system. You can be confident to get them to do your work.Panel rating: 5/5

Good value for money installation
Discussing our solar needs with several companies enabled us to settle on the size and brand of panels and battery. Then quotes led us to Brightworks Solar and the best value for money installation and guidance to obtain the government loans. Overall an efficient and satisfying process with good communication all the way.Panel rating: 4/5

Excellent experience from a professional company
Alex & Anthony are extremely helpful & honest & they guided me to the best possible solar solution for my needs. After showing me several excellent options I decided to go with the 9.6 kWh Jinko all black solar panels coupled with an 8kw Sigenergy inverter, battery & gateway. The installation was absolutely top shelf & Anthony spent time showing me exactly how the system works, setup the MySigen app for me & showed me how to use it. Would happily recommend them to my friends & family. Looking at getting them back again once I buy an EV so they can setup a bi-directional DC charger to take full advantage of V2G technology.Panel rating: 5/5

Awesome service, follow up and quality workmanship
5 stars for Brightworks Solar run by husband and wife team Anthony & Alex. If looking for solar, or a solar & battery system, you should speak to the Brightworks team. Awesome service/follow up, great pricing & quality workmanship.After being lucky enough to have received 66 cents per kW with our old system & basically never having to pay an electricity bill; that ride all finished in November with the program coming to an end. With the unhappy prospect of having to pay for power again, I started looking at new solar & battery systems.
After speaking & getting quotes on different system types from a number of installers I settled on Brightworks. Mainly due to Alex’s great customer service.
As a result the Brightworks team have just replaced my 15 year old 4kW system with 5kW inverter, to a brand new system consisting of 24 x Jinko Tiger Neo 440w panels (10.56kW), a brand new to Australia Tesla Powerwall 3 with 13.5kWh of battery and a Tesla Backup Gateway 2. The Tesla Powerwall 3 is so new to Australia, that I think it was Brightwork’s first install.
Solar system is great, however we have one problem which is nothing to do with the system itself, but with the power authority. For all new installs the power authority restricts the amount of power that you can export to the grid to a maximum of 1kW. Once they’re happy with the systems operations, they’ll lift the export capacity to 5kW’s. No longer will we receive the 66 cents for exported power that we used to get, but will now get 6 cents, guess that’s better than nothing. With such low payments for exported power, its all now about power stored (the battery).
The Tesla app is awesome, you can see exactly how much power the solar system is generating, battery level & charging status, how much power is being exported to the grid & how much power is being used by the house. There’s also many app configuration options to control how your system works.
We’re now addicted to only trying use power from our solar & battery system & trying to not to use any authority power and aiming for a $0 power usage bill.
Thanks Brightworks Solar team :-)

reliable and professional
We had a great experience with Brightworks. Anthony upgraded our switchboard, all of our GPOs and installed a hot water heater pump. The whole process was super straightforward and it was refreshing to work with a reliable professional. Alex was also fantastic in coordinating everything and putting the customer first. We look forward to having them back to set us up with solar panels in the future.28 March 2025
Good old fashioned service
What a truly professional and dedicated team Anthony and Alexandra are.Right from day one they were on. Alexandra’s extra efforts do not go unnoticed. And Anthony quoted the job in person, making sure we understood everything.
Very reasonable rates, but you can’t buy friendly good old fashioned service.

Great installer
It was our first time looking into solar and batteries. We ended with Anthony (and 4-5 person team) because he was the only installer who took the time to come and inspect our metal roof and to discuss the best spots for the battery. We lost faith in the other suppliers because we feel they arbitrarily provided quotes without onsite inspection - and we also suspected they'll sub the work to other contractors.As a bonus, Anthony even managed to tunnel the cables behind our brick wall as opposed to, via easiest route, run unsightly exterior down pipe-like cables around the façade of the house.

Brilliant Experience with Brightworks Solar – Would Choose Them Again!
We decided to upgrade our solar system - add more panels, a battery and car charger. We had a fantastic experience with Brightworks Solar and couldn’t be happier with our decision!From the very first enquiry, their sales and quoting process was excellent—super responsive, knowledgeable, and clear in their communication. They took the time to explore our needs and made thoughtful suggestions to ensure we got the best system for our home. Everything was explained clearly, making the process smooth and stress-free.
The installation team was just as impressive—punctual, polite, and incredibly hardworking. They got everything set up efficiently, and their attention to detail was top-notch.
Customer service has been amazing throughout. Any questions we had were answered quickly, and they took care of all the post-installation documentation seamlessly. We did run into a small issue with the app, but this was followed up with Sigenergy straight away, and it was resolved in no time.
They were an absolute pleasure to deal with—friendly, enthusiastic, and always willing to go the extra mile.

Miles ahead of the rest
Interacting with Alex and Anthony from the first call was so easy, they are so genuine and know solar inside and out. The team on install day was thorough and did a beautiful job installing our system, it looks great. Alex's customer service is out of this world and she made things so easy for us, they took care of everything. Anthony was a great support after install learning how to read the numbers on our monitoring app. We installed with them last year and it has cut our bills so much that I am actually surprised. Brightworks are trustworthy and clear experts in solar, 5 stars.Panel rating: 5/5

Brightworks was a pleasure to work with
We had the pleasure of having Alexandra and Anthony completing our recent solar and hot water heat pump install.Alexandra's communication was 2nd to none throughout the entirety of the process and was always flexible to accommodate all of our requests and considerations. Anthony was the only quote we had who took the time to get on the roof and assess our heavily shaded rooftop and accommodate accordingly.
Anthony and his installation team were timely, professional and very respectful during their time on our property. They took time and care at all stages and ensured everything was explained clearly and concisely.
Could not recommend Brightworks Solar more highly for anyone wanting a professional and respectful company. Thanks guys.

Not just a sales company, Brightworks are real tradesman. Very impressed!
Had the boys from Brightworks out to do my solar and I couldn’t be happier. They made the whole process easy, no BS. Solid crew who know their stuff, they rocked up on time and got straight into it, finished off the install with no stress. Anthony ran me through the system app after and made sure I knew how to read all the numbers properly. The panels and inverter are top quality and look great on the house. Alex in the office was amazing from our first call. She made me feel at ease from the start. If you’re on the fence about who to go with, just give it to these legends, they absolutely did not disappoint, we are wrapped with our experience.

Terrific experience with Brightworks
Absolutely thrilled with our solar and battery installation from Brightworks Solar last November. The team was professional, efficient, and so knowledgeable. Everything was handled seamlessly by Alexandra, from the initial consultation to the follow up calls after installation.

Knowledgeable, Efficient, On Time Installation Company
Quotation: Anthony came and inspected the roof by actually climbing on it. Quote was then prepared and the 11.44Kw system being accepted. Siting on both the west and north facing rooves and taking into account the potential shadowing by a chimney were deciding factors. Other companies just looked from the ground but the fact that a proper assessment was important.Installation - Solar Panels: The team arrived 7.30am with all necessary equipment. Installation was done without fuss with the physical work being done separately to the preparation for electrical connection such as control box and links to existing power box. Of note was the cleanliness at all times and neat conduit placement.
Installation-EV Charger: The Zappi EV Charger was selected from a choice provided by Brightworks. A 2 week lead time was provided to enable a cable trench to be dug. The team arrived on time and, rather than taking an easy unsightly route for the cable, a more time consuming installation hiding most of the conduit was used. Again, cleanup was excellent.
Followup: In both cases Alex called within 24 hours to check our satisfaction with both the installation and tidiness. We could not have asked for a better provider!

Helpful team committed to customer happiness!
I recently had Brightworks Solar install a solar system at my home. Alex and Anthony were a pleasure to work with as they patiently worked through designing my system to give me the best possible outcome whilst working around the existing pool heating and aesthetic requirements of the system. Anthony was always happy to drop in to re visit my roof while I changed my mind about where the panels would go and how big the system would be. Alex was very helpful with getting quotes from other trades they know well, such as landscaping and pool heat pump etc. The system was up and running on the afternoon of the install and I am very happy with the massive reduction to our power consumption.Panel rating: 5/5

Fantastic from start to finish
Thank you Alex and Anthony for the installation of my solar panels. From the very start of the process Brightworks have done a great job, the only company that came out to do a site inspection before providing a quote. I've had other companies provide a quote without an inspecting only to turn up and tell me they couldn't do the job that was quoted.

Alexandra was super helpful and patient in regards to any questions we had in regards to both technical and financial.
The installation team was also a 5/5
Anthony and his team of electricians Brad and Robert were super friendly and did an excellent job and installed my 13.2 kwh system installed in a day. If you had any questions ranging from technical to electrical, Anthony was great in explaining what went into it.

Solar upgrade and battery
Anthony made recommendations based on-site visit. Alex was happy to make adjustments based on my feedback. The final solution is probably in excess of my needs, but I would rather too much than too little. The installers arrived when they said they would and cleaned up afterwards.27 February 2025
Great from Brightworks
From the initial quote visit to shaking Anthony’s hand after a successful two day installation, we were highly satisfied with Brightworks.The quote was well explained and competitive.
Anthony is a calm, respectful and efficient professional. He had a good team who all knew what they were doing. No radios or rough talk. They were punctual, quiet, calm, polite and tidy.
The communication was consistently excellent which was very important to us because it was our introduction to solar.
Alexandra in the office provided a lot of excellent assistance to us and managed the communication with the power company for grid connection and with other organisations. She kept us updated throughout and even after the installation regarding power company progress in making connections to our solar system.
Highly recommended.

They make the whole process easy. Alex’s communication is second to none!
Alex took care everything that is needed and kept me updated throughout the process. With Anthony’s expertise, he inspected our roof (which is quite complicated!) and provided a solution that works well with our roof set up.

Great experience with Brightworks Solar
I had a super experience with this company. They installed my solar panels and then a few months later the heat pump. The operator is Anthony and he knows his stuff and you can feel confident about what he is doing. And he is well backed up by Alexandra who simply wants to make sure the customer is happy. They were both terrific in how they helped as well as being nice people.I had a problem on a Sunday after the heat pump was installed because of existing building works at my home. Anthony was at my home that morning, fixed it and was not fussed about having to make the effort on his day off.
First class customer treatment. Could not have asked for better treatment from them. Highly endorsed.

Brightworks was great!
I found Brightworks Solar through Solar Quotes and was very happy with the service I received from both Anthony and Alexandra.I sought out several companies going through the tender process for solar for my home and Brightworks Solar was the only company that came out to do a sight inspection which gave me a lot of confidence rather than having people just do a Google maps inspection over the phone. Anthony was very patient and professional, including the workers he had on site and even made a follow up visit on a Saturday when I was having some internet issues with connecting to the inverter.
Alex has very responsive to messages and emails and the paperwork process from start to finish was seamless and easy to do and everything was laid out properly. Brightworks is a newer company and I would not hesitate to recommend them.
