Great Quotes and Installation

The sale person was really informative and helpful during the initial talk. They answered all my questions and gave me several suggestions regarding my situation. They gave me 3 options varies on quality and price to choose.

The installation was done smoothly and they followed my preference for putting the inverter inside the garage. Although they could not finished all the same day, but that is due to the rain on that day. The installers also guided me how to monitor the solar system.

As for the customer service, overall they are good. They are friendly and quickly in setting up the dates for installation. They also helped with the grid connection after the install.

Angaston Bowling Club goes Solar

We were very happy with the pricing.
The installation was done very well. It was done at the times we were quoted and finished on time.
The site was left clean tidy and the only evidence they had been there was the system on the roof.
Michael did the handover to myself and that was well explained.

A Polished Service

From start to finish the service provided by DQ Electrical was Polished and Professional. We opted to install a 6.6kw System (No Battery) and were incredibly satisfied with the service provided = from both an administrative and installation perspective. The pricing aspect of DQ was very competitive in comparison to the other options we considered. We explained our initial budget and Luke worked around it to produce a good quality system to suit our needs.

The initial sales / phone consultation was smooth sailing, Luke was polite, likable and knowledgeable as opposed to your run of the mill salespeople who can come across as fake/pushy. He was understanding of our preferences for the system and gave us with all the tools we needed to make a final decision. As well as this, he was very accommodating with our time restraints and worked with us to come out for a site visit early in the morning. Luke also showed up exactly on time and was very informative and helpful on the day.

The Installers (Caleb & Josh) were also exceptional. They showed up on a Friday morning with a forecast of 39 degrees so big props to them for keeping our schedule and going ahead with the installation. They arrived on time and clearly explained what the plan was for the day. Within 4-5 hours everything was up and running and we are incredibly happy with how everything has turned out.

From the operational / admin perspective I am also very impressed with how the team @ DQ were able to streamline everything and make it extremely accessible. The interactive quotes are a very nice touch and make everything simple to understand. All the contractual / Documentation side of things was done electronically and being able to jump on and provide quick digital signatures made the process flow very nicely.

Overall DQ Electrical's service is a firm 10/10 from me and I would highly encourage anyone interested in Solar installations to consider them.

Thanks!

Faultless experience

The team at DQ gave me a lot of confidence from the initial home inspection through to installation. One of the biggest things that set them apart was they designed my system *after* the initial inspection, not before. I was kept well informed of progress leading up to the installation day, given satisfactory answers to my multiple questions, and the final design suited my situation perfectly. The installation itself was incredibly smooth - the guys were very polite, efficient, made sure to confirm the locations of the panels and inverter before starting, gave me a detailed walkthrough of the system once they'd finished, and made sure to leave everything, if anything, tidier than when they'd arrived. Callum even came out to check everything was operating correctly once my meter had been upgraded.

Very professional service, communication, installation and follow up.

What I can say is that high quality products were used and that time will tell if the quality of my product installed will match their apparent high quality.

Exceptional overall installation from DQ Electrical.
At all times through the sales and quoting process, DQ Electrical were available to answer all my questions and put my mind at ease on any concerns. They clearly communicated the forthcoming installation times which made preparation for the day very smooth. They were also flexible on which day to install that was compatible with our household.

The installation went seamlessly and staff communicated the whole process very well. I understand they were one staff member short for the most part of the installation but it never seemed that way. Josh and his team worked well and this was greatly appreciated considering the very hot weather on the day. We made our facilities available to them so they could remain well hydrated.

Toward the latter end of the day another staff member arrived from another job to assist with completion and we were very pleased with the service on completion of the installation. All functions were fully explained and also what would occur on total blackout. In addition to this they assisted us with they installation and use of the 'app' on our mobile phone so we could track performance.

The system appears to be functioning exceptionally well and after tracking our usage, it has been noted so far that our usage charges should be reduced by at least 90%, possibly more. The service charge however, will always still remain.

Thank you to all staff at DQ Electrical. We were very impressed with the whole process.

Highly Professional Installation

The installation of solar on our home was excellent from start to finish and we are delighted with the finished product. The team, led by Josh, was impressive throughout the process. They were punctual, considerate and tidy. They kept us informed and responded to all questions in a polite, helpful manner. Similarly, all other interactions with the company, including quoting, the initial site visit and follow-up phone conversations have been handled professionally. DQ Electrical was recommended to us by several people, including a satisfied customer nearby, and we are delighted that we settled on them as our installer.

Fantastic Solar Provider

We were very happy from start to finish. Don was very helpful with everything, he answered all our questions in detail and addressed our concerns with minimal effort. He listened to what we needed and designed a system that was suitable for us. Nothing was a bother for him or his office staff. The installers were punctual, tidy and polite. Everything was explained when finished. We would highly recommend them for Solar and any Electrical needs.

Great solar install

Thank you, Finn Peacock and DQ Solar. Seeking 3 recommendations from Finn and then obtaining the quotes was seamless. I didn't know where to start looking for a genuine solar company and quote, as there are a lot of cowboys out there. The quotes came in promptly. Meeting the DQ Solar senior solar sales rep at my home, made up my mind for me. The communication was clear and concise, and the quote was the best price. The two young installers were on time, safety conscious, and professional. The system starting producing power immediately when completed, which was visible through use of the app. I was very confident with my choice from the start of the process, thank you

Professional Outfit

Of the three quotes I received, DQ Electrical was the only company that said we would need 3 Tigo optimisers for the system to work at its most efficient because of the layout of the panels. The guys who installed it were all professional and did a very neat job. The sales guiy, Nathan is extremely knowledgeable and you can tell he is passionate about his work

I found that QE Electrical were polite ,gave us a quote as what I needed, booked a time for installation, they were prompt at arrival. Installed in quick time and explained how it worked. Very pleased.

A great experience!

I chose DQ Electrical to install a 10.56Kw solar system.
From the initial phone conversation, to the site visit and then installation- they couldn’t have been more obliging, informative and friendly.
The crew of 4 who did the installation were fantastic. They were all friendly, helpful, good humoured and worked so hard on a day that started at 7am and didn’t finish until 5.45pm! (And they were still smiling at the end!!)
When there was a glitch the following day with the consumption monitor connecting to my app, they were onto it right away and came and sorted it out on the same day. (it wasn’t their fault)
The admin staff on the phone were great, super helpful and very efficient.
I highly recommend DQ. At every step they were excellent :)

Very good customer experience

We were recommended to go to DQ Electrical by friends of ours. We told DQ what we were after, and they gave us advice and multiple options on the best system for us.
It was a very easy and informative process.
We decided to get a 10.5kw solar system.
We did look at other companies and DQs pricing was quite competitive.
Once we had booked in a date. They organised for SA Power networks approval and for our energy provider to set up our smart meter.
They kept us informed through every step.
Their installers came and were very professional putting everything together and showing us how it works.
We are looking and getting a battery installed in the next few years and would definitely use DQ again.

Prompt Comunication & Service

Everyone I spoke with from DQ Electric was polite, answered any questions I had and kept to arranged schedules. The installation is tidy and had all of the benefits promised while pitching the system.

Excellent

Our experience with DQ Electrical was seamless from first contact through to having some questions answered post-install. Nathan was fantastic with providing quotes, explaining the pros and cons of our various options, and doing a site visit to inspect our tiled roof before booking the install – he was quick to respond and helpful throughout. Josh and his team carried out the install with a minimum of fuss and from what I can see, did a very tidy job. They were on time, polite, and left no mess behind.

I highly recommend DQ Electrical to anyone looking to install a solar system.

DQ Electrical,great company, excellent service

introduced to DQ electrical thru a friend after getting the run around from other businesses and had a seamless operation from quoting to installation
Installers were punctual
This is a new build installation on 2 storeys on slight pitch flat roof so presume the rooftop is as neat and tidy as the inverter and electrical to switchboard. The company will come back and go thru the workings of the system once we move into the home.
The build was slow so installers had to wait a few months which was appreciated
The office staff cannot be faulted as well.

Excellent service, staff, products, install, and performance.

DQ listened to exactly what we were trying to achieve, gave excellent advice on the products and design of the solar and battery system they'd recommend, and had a good on-line quoting system that made the process really easy.

The installation happened earlier than expected, and their team were really friendly and excellent at communicating what they were planning on doing each day of install. They took the time to talk us through the best options for minimising the disturbance to the exterior of our house, and they matched the colour and style of the cable trays. This made the install process as painless as it could have been.

After install they got in touch to make sure that everything was running as expected, and the system has been producing exactly the output we expected from the initial quote.

Stella Service with a smile :-)

Steve’s quoting process was great & you could tell straight away his solar technical knowledge was good, with him being an ex-solar installer.

The team of boys who did the installation were very thorough & clear in their communication with us.

We thought we had to wait a week or 2, after the installation, before our new solar system would be live but she was up’n’running before the DQ guys left.

Great staff and service

After getting 3 quotes I chose DQ electrical. Steve was happy to come and view our home and answer all our questions. The install team arrived on time and Michael talked us through each step and was very patient explaining our options. His team cleaned up afterwards while Michael explained how the system works and showed us how to monitor with the app. I found the office staff polite and helpful. Happy to recommend.

Great service and neat installation

We were referred to DQ through our neighbour. We wanted a company whose installers are employees (not sub contracted). From the quoting process through to installation, it was a seamless install. 3 electricians from DQ worked on our site for 2 whole days. Our job was difficult given the size of the plant and second storey with lots of cabling and tight spaces. The staff were very professional and accomodating with cable layout and on-site questions etc. We could not be happier with the end product. A 13 kw SUNGROW solar system and 16kw SUNGROW battery. Well done DQ on a fantastic installation and system. The systems also included 32 amp cabling provision for an EV fast charger. We would definitely recommend DQ Electrical.

Great job. Great customer service.

Nothing was too much trouble. Nathan attended to every detail and he was always very timely with getting back to us and responding to all the questions we had. We got thermal hot water too which is working like a dream.
Installation is a complex process with coordination between electricity suppliers and installers etc but thankfully that all went according to plan too.
Follow up has been great too.
Really glad we found DQ Electrical and I hope they do well.

Leabrook

The quote at the time was done within my expected time frame. The installation was done with a lot of care. The guys were very careful with everything and were exceptionally clean. They took photos of the roof before the installation and told me about some cracked tiles which I had no idea about. They really went the extra mile in service.

First class service. High quality product.

Every step of our solar panel and battery installation met or exceeded our expectations. The initial quoting process was detailed, informative and several options were presented; most importantly the salesperson took the time to visit our home to accurately assess our needs and to determine the most workable installation options. Installation was scheduled promptly and each of the 4 installers were pleasant, polite and professional. Excellent service and communication have been key features of our experience with DQ Electrical thus far.

Absolutely fantastic

DQ were brilliant, they took the time to explain the system and answered many questions in the process, that was before sign up!!! Once we signed up they were very helpful in explaining the steps involved before installation. The quoting was great along with the quote was extensive information which we appreciated. The two guys that installed the system were brilliant young guys who were prompt, polite, helpful and very hard workers. They very patiently explained the system and we couldn’t be happier. We highly recommend DQ to anyone looking to install solar.

Solar Experience

Sales representative Brian explained the possible systems that would suit our needs without pushing for the expensive model and allowed us time to settle on the system that would be most beneficial for us.
The install team were excellent, very polite, explained the install and the app which monitored the inverter extremely helpful.
As the install was happening I was receiving the various emails for our STC scheme form, energy provider reconfiguration and earlier the approved Embedded Generation application approval, we didn't have to do anything DQ Electrical completed all necessary paperwork for us.

Exceeded expectations all the way!

Re-reading this review, it seems too positive to be true, but I honestly can't think of a bad thing to say.
At every point, from initial contacting response to our enquiry through Solar Quotes, through to negotiating the choice of components and providing background information, arranging installation dates, prior site inspection, installation and handover, DQ Electrical was thoroughly professional.
Brian was unfailingly responsive, patient and well-informed, and there was no hard sell involved.
Front office follow-up from Tara and Abigail was courteous and reliable.
Ben was clear and courteous in his initial contact regarding installation, and the assurance that everything would be checked with us before proceeding gave confidence.
Michael, Josh, Harrison and Patrick worked like a well-oiled machine to carry out the installation, the clean-up was exemplary, grid connection was done, and we were briefed properly at the handover point.

All communications were courteous and patient, and we appreciate the fact that we are invited to contact DQ at any time if we have questions or problems.

The 6.5 kW panel and 9.5k Battery system was installed yesterday, switched on at 4pm, and the battery was almost fully charged by the end of the day (mid -October). Today we are already feeding into the grid.

While it is too early to comment on the reliability of the system, all our contact so far gives us confidence that we are dealing with a professional and trustworthy company, whom we would recommend without hesitation.

Excellent Service and Product

Sales/Quoting process - Explained exatly what I would need to achieve the desired goals and offered multiple products and pricing for the budget I specified. The company went above and beyond giving me all the technical data and information I requested in a very timely manner.

Installation - Accommodated for when we wanted the install to happen team was very flexible as I had other trades working on the roof. Communication was excellent and installation seamless and hassle free. Barely noticed they were up there!

Customer Service - From start to finish I couldn't recommend a better company for a solar install. I spoke to other Solar companies for quotes and DQ ELECTRICAL PTY LTD was unmatched in professionalism and knowledge not to mention they weren't pushy and forceful with their product.

Great Service and Expereicne

I am absolutely thrilled with the outstanding service provided by DQ Electrical. From the moment I inquired about their services to the final installation, every step of the process was seamless and professional.

The team demonstrated an impressive level of expertise and knowledge about solar energy. They took the time to thoroughly explain the benefits of solar power and customized a system that perfectly suited my needs and budget.

The installation crew was punctual, efficient, and super friendly. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was set up correctly and took the time to educate me on how to monitor and maximize the system's performance.

Since the installation, my energy bills have significantly decreased, and I'm proud to be contributing to a more sustainable future. The quality of the solar panels and equipment used is top-notch, and I have full confidence in their durability and longevity.

I would recommend DQ Electrical to anyone considering a solar energy system. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly unmatched. Thank you for providing an exceptional experience and helping me take a significant step towards a greener tomorrow!
