Original Review on 07-07-2020:
A Very Customer-Focussed Company
From the moment Magic Solar made contact with me until the completion of installation, I found that the company was totally customer-focussed. They responded on numerous occasions to my very detailed queries and kept me informed on progress after I placed the order. They were also very responsive in their ability to provide a number of different options covering a range of different products. Being our first ever dip into the solar market, they removed the fear of the unknown from our concerns and gave us the confidence to proceed with them. That trust was well founded through their very professional installation and commissioning stage with the site left in an extremely tidy state. They handled all the approvals process efficiently and kept us informed throughout the whole process. We are very happy with the end product.Panel rating: 5/5

After 8 months, we are averaging about double what I assumed when I did my original benefit : cost analysis.It was one of the best decisions I ever made to go solar and once you understand how the benefits and costs work, it becomes a no-brainer that it's an excellent investment decision, with the added benefit of helping with reducing our environmental impact.

Performance
All quoted retailers provided informative information, however Magic Solar pipped the others with with price and and speed of installation of very similar products. After one month the system appears to be performing well, but need to see a couple of power bills to assess.Panel rating: 5/5

Currently we are very happy with our system though we might have reconsidered having the system facing north and east instead of all north, as we then would have had some power generation earlier in the morning when we wake up. But then all is ‘horses for courses’.31 October 2020

Installers were on time and delivered on my expectations.
Happy with the process. Old system removed and the new one installed in a timely manner. Roof and site left clean and tidy. A few issues delivering excess power to the system but that is more to do with the State’s network. The company is working to resolve it and have not yet expected full payment of the solar system until it has been resolved.Inverter rating: 4/5

Ron is awesome, the only person that came to give me a quote.
Ron was fantastic, no pressure, lots of knowledge, I actually took about 6 weeks to decide on which products I wanted, I did a lot of research, then when it came to installation day it was really easy, I would highly recommend Magic Electrical Services....very happy customer ......Thank you :)09 October 2020

After a talk to determine what i required i was recommended 4 alternatives based on price and suitable to a very difficult roof, The installation was excellent and trouble free. The customer service from Ron was great nothing was to much trouble and he set everything up .and is always on call.I can totally recommend Magic in all respects.
And thank you Solarquotes for all your information and help.

Magic Electrical Services Really Live up to Their Name!
Magic made the whole process very easy. Ron was great, came round to ensure everything was suitable for solar. Very up front with anything I needed to know.From signing up, to installation was extremely fast. Ron took care of everything that needed tonbe done, I just received all the emails informing me of progress/sign-ups.
I can't praise these guy's enough. Highly recommended. Just very professional, friendly and helpful.

Excellent pricing, installation and service
Very happy with the professional service provided by this company. Their quote was very good (20% better than the next best); Ron promptly came around to have a chat and check the proposed siting. He was able to answer all the questions I had about the different panel and inverter types. His comprehensive quote was provided that same day.The installaion was undertaken by Marc and Davide who were both very professional and approachable.
When Ron came to check in after the installation I raised a minor installation issue relating the the positioning of one of the panels. He quickly organised with Marc and Davide and had the panel re-located.
The system has only been in for just over one month, but has performed even better than I expected.
I highly recommend this company for solar installations.

A no BS installer
Simple and efficient install. Sales quoting was honest, not "flashy" like some other companies. Presented/confirmed information already found on SolarQuotes. Measured up, designed the system (for 3 phase) and presented pricing promptly. Grid connect applications were handled in a day or so by email, no problems. Pricing was very competitive to other local installers for similar/same components. Additional promotional discount clinched the deal and made it a no brainer decision.Installers arrived on time and quickly put the system in. Runs very well and I wish I had done sooner.
A little confusion in setting up inverter passwords for commissioning was the only misstep. SMA make this way too complicated (passwords for WIFI, Installer, User, Internet Portal). Don't lose/mixup the various inverter passwords or you'll have to pay SMA for a personal unlocking key (PUK).

Great company, highly recommended
Ron gave me some really good quotes for good quality systems, i had done some research so I also asked him for a quote for the panels and system that I really wanted. I was expecting to be talked out of it or given a ridiculous price like other company's had but Ron went out his way to get me what I wanted and for a good price. Was installed within the month, the owner of the company and another guy did the install which was quick, no mess and no problems. Has only been installed for a couple of weeks but so far so good

Original Review on 02-08-2018:
I was quite surprised when I received our quotes that all suppliers quoted on 275W Jinko panels and Fronius inverter as the base line product. There was other upgrades that offered features that we considered not beneficial. The choices were reduced to purely financial. We chose a smaller more nimble (and much cheaper) supplier and are delighted with the result, so far. As Marc from Magic Electrical said whilst connecting the inverter “I’ll turn this on in a moment, then you can start watching the numbersâ€. I have been since and have been pleasantly surprised with the results. I am a little worried about becoming a meter junkie though.Thank you for your blogs and reviews I do find interesting reading and gain relevant knowledge from them.
Kind regards Rob Vanderspil.

Not a fan of the word "fantastic" as it is somewhat over used depleting its relevance... however, the installation was exactly on time, extremely well organised and efficient. Being a Builder, I have had some experience in order to make that assessment.Have not had any opportunity to test "customer service" since nothing has gone wrong......yet!
As for product quality...well.. like anyone, I can only answer that in 10 years.

Excellent company to deal with
Ron was a wealth of information right from the start and initiated the process to replace the meter before we had even decided to proceed with solar. Marc and David were excellent tradesman and did a fantastic job of installing our system. Very efficient and competent tradies, that really do know their work. A highly recommended company.
