Happy so far with a system that's doing what its meant to
I really appreciated all the technical stuff being taken care of by Solarworx on top of the quoting, advice, installation and problem solving. I would happily recommend Solarworx be considered by others.13 December 2021
Airport Over 50s 10Kw Solar Installation
We are extremely pleased with the Solar installation at our Club and would recommend Solaworx to others.We had 36 additional panels installed for a 10Kw system extension.and found Solaworx to be professional, clear, helpful, effecient and good value for money.
Their attention to detail was highly commendable as was their willingness to work around our activity schedule.
We would definitely use them again for any further extensions required.

Knowledgeable contractor.
Solaworx came up to the detailed challenge that I presented them with. They came up with the right solution for my application after working closely with me.19 September 2021
Great system from a great business.
I was really nervous about getting solar panels, especially given the investment required to get a top quality one. Mark from Solaworx took all the stress away. He explained all the ins and outs of various systems in a way I could understand. He also future proofed the system for my later requirements. Installation was prompt and the installers were extremely professional and friendly and made no mess whatsoever.Mark and the guys took me through the system and showed me how it all worked, how to monitor it etc.
Even now, Mark is at the end of the phone if I have any questions. After sales service and monitoring is exceptional.

My Solar
After reviewing quotes from your suggested providers I found SOLARWORX to be the cheapest of 2 quotes using the same product , But also replaced old meter box in the quote, which made a total saving of about $2000.The installation was done 2 weeks after contract signed, It took 3 Hrs to install and now to wait and see my next Account

Aldinga Bay Bowling Club
Mark was great from day one. Being a local he understood our needs and addressed everything accordingly. As this was a solar installation that was being paid for by Members and on a Council property he went above and beyond to assist us.The installation guys were 10/10, polite, tidy and punctual, we could not have asked for better they were very professional.
Highly recommend and happy for potential customers to drive past the Aldinga Bay Bowling Club, Port Road at Aldinga Beach and check out our pride and joy :-)

Highly experienced, motivated and interested customer needs
Quoting was competitive and readily adapted to my particular needs once I knew what I wanted. Not the cheapest in terms of price, but still best value in terms of service, expertise and the complete package.Installation was punctual, polite, and very efficient.

Thorough Everything…
Thoroughtec provided honest advice and an adequate system within budget. Prompt installation, site cleanliness and good follow up. Grid connection several weeks to arrange but overall very happy. Recommend.08 July 2021
Easy to deal with. Quick installation
From start to finish, Mark was great to deal with. No pressure, all of the relevant information was provided so we could make the decision that was best for us.After deciding the system we wanted, we were able to have it installed within a couple of weeks.
Everything has been working as expected.
Would definitely recommend Mark and Solaworx!

All around a great experience
We had very specific requirements for the system we wanted to buy. After talking to many different suppliers we met up with Mark from Solarworx and had the feeling that he really knew what he was talking about. He listened to us and came up with a system we thought was right. The installation by Brandon was very professional he made always time for us to explain all the questions we had. It was a great experience from start to finish.Thank you Mark and Brandon

Fantastic service
Fantastic explanation on different systems. Comprehensive report post installation. No hidden extras. Efficient installation and billing.30 May 2021
Friendly and professional
SolaWorx from the start of the quoting process to the finish of the installation they were friendly very knowledgeable and punctual, my roof and the installation was a little on the difficult side with panel orientation but Mark from SolaWorx was able to explain to me just how this would all work, the trade guys that come to my house was friendly and answered any questions I had, one of the things that stood out for me was they knew all about products they were selling and installing so all in all it was a positive experience and made possible by Finn Peacock and solar quotes.Inverter rating: 5/5

Exceeded all expectations. Perfect
The whole quoting process was very simple. Mark made everything clear via calls and email with personal service. Very good value for money, unbeatable price. Installation started just 2 days after selecting Solaworx.The install process was great. Brandon did an amazing job. Perfect positioning of the panels/inverter. Very professional. He cleaned everything up after him and explained how everything worked. Couldn't be happier with the whole process. Highly reccomended.

Solar Power a New Experience
Mark is genial, knowledgeable and helpful. When he first visited the site he discussed other options that had been tendered and gave me enough information to guide me to the most suitable choice for our home. The installers from Thoroughtec arrived on time and were professional, friendly and willing to answer any of my questions.As part of a major renovation the Solar Installation was one of the last things we had done. A considerable investment but immediately we were able to see that it was a sound and sensible use of our budget. Very happy with the entire process

One Very Happy Duckie
Mark from Solaworx has done me proud. I'm over the moon. My house now rocks an excellent high quality 12.58kw system, that should stand me in good stead for my impending retirement. From initial meeting, to one highly detailed and itemised quote, to completion - took 3 weeks. !!! A huge testament to Marks overall management. Amazing. Installation was completed with the same level of excellence. Brandon, Adrian, and Andre from Thoroughtec attended to every detail. They were so generous with their time and explanations around what I needed to know as the proud new owner.But the real Hero in all of this is Finn Peacock. Finn, you have no idea how valuable your service has been. I attended your free info session about 18months ago at Aldinga Library, and bought your book. Then went on to request 3 Quotes. You are instrumental to my sorting the wheat from the chaff, in this potentially overwhelming industry. I got exactly the system I wanted, after reading your book twice and perusing your website. You've empowered me, and I thankyou.

Thanks Guys!

Very prompt installer, great communication and accessibility throughout
The quoting process was fast and clear, with a site visit to finalise the details and discuss the options.Andrea and his team arrived on time and worked efficiently, tidying the site when they were done and the installers were polite throughout and ensured that we were happy with the install along the way. Their customer service was great, always available to discuss concerns from asking for the quote onwards.

Great Solar package
Solaworx came recommended by a neighbour, and we are very grateful for the recommendation. This was our first time with solar installation and it was great to talk with Mark face to face to work out what we needed. Mark and the team of installers were very professional and knowledgeable. Installation occurred during a major renovation, and any minor issues that arose were dealt with quickly and without fuss. Andre, Adrian and the team installed the system quickly and efficiently and were very professional with their work and on site discussions. System is working beautifully and would highly recommend Solaworx to anyone who wants to install solar.Panel rating: 5/5

Have highly recommended to friends
Very prompt response from installer after submitting enquiry on SolarQuotes. Painless process of on paper then on site quotes. Elected for a "top end" system: 10 kW total (Trina solar panels and Enphase microinverters) with 5 kW export limiter for single-phase supply. Minimal delay from placing order and reasonable deposit to scheduled installation day. Needed old solar water heater taken off roof which they performed for a reasonable excess cost.Only minor issues with installation: ended up requiring two days and asked for partial payment prior to job completion, and electrician needed to return again a few days later as a component was installed backwards (incorrect power production readings on monitor).
I've now had the system for nearly two months and it has functioned as advertised and without fault.
Very happy customer and have recommended solar and this installer in particular to my friends.

1st time experience
This was our first experience with Solar installation and was very pleased we chose to go with Solaworx. Mark and his team of installers were very professional and knowledgeable, any minor issues that arose were dealt with quickly and without fuss. Andre and his team installed the system quickly and efficiently and were very professional and clean with their work. System is working beautifully and would highly recommend Solaworx to anyone who wants to install solar.27 November 2020
Easy process and great results!
The guys at Solarworx were awesome to work with. Very knowledgeable and helpful. They were patient when we were looking through various quotes but quick and easy to deal with when we decided to go with them. They guided us though the process and proved very wise and trustworthy.The installers (Thoroughtec) were very quick and neat in their work. Highly recommend them. The electrician noticed an error in our air-conditioning isolation switch (or lack of one) and was able to fix it for a very decent price, saving the cost of a new house because of an electrical fire. So cant say good enough things about them! A great bunch of people all round and the ideal tradesmen.

Original Review on 10-03-2020:
Good Job, Easy to deal with
Very easy as I had and existing system that it was connected to.The Installation was very good, the men that installed it were very helpful with questions.
Customer service was good.
8 months later we asked Rodney: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
Yes, it is very good. I find the Opal Solar panels to be very good. I already had a 1.5kw system with the approval to go to 3kw. The original 1.5kw system has 7 x 215w panels, the new system has 5 x 300w panels. The new system on most days is producing more power then the original system, and I have had 2 electricity bills with a credit since I put the new system up to increase to 3kw. I am now thinking of getting a storage battery.05 November 2020
Microinverter system
Excellent Service both from company and installers.Friendly with timely and accurate feedback on questions.
Very fast installation with little effort on my part.
17 October 2020
Good process from start to finish
After specifying my requirements, various quotes were accessible online. I could see the options of various panels and invertors(datasheets were available for download). Once I had decided, it was just a simple click to accept the quote. Invoices were received by email and was straight forward.Installation was quick and delays due to windy weather were handled professionally.
I did have some issues with the installation of the monitoring system, but now appears to be fixed after a couple of return visits.

solved all my problems.
I can't thank Mark Moody enough, I rang mark after another company installed my solar system and it was a disaster.From the start to finish in the end SA power got involved and told me my system was operating illegally and had to be fix.
So I rang Mark and within a few weeks every thing was fixed and operating as it should have in the first place.
So after a couple of months I rang Mark to have a Tesla battery installed and the guys that installed it did a lovely job
and it is fantastic.
I can not Thank Mark and his team from Solaworks enough for all there help.

Upgrade on the original Solar Edge 3.8kW 12 panel system fitted and installed by solaworx and Thoroughtec late 2017
After the original installation back in 2017 Mark suggested that I give him a ring in the future regarding upgrading the system with battery backup when the technology improved.Almost 3 years later the Solar Edge system has worked without a problem I gave Mark a ring and asked how the battery technology was coming along, he said a lot of progress has been made.
He recommended a 14kWH Tesla Powerwall 2 and we found enough room on the northern facing roof for another 8 panels bringing the total to 20 panels to throw some more rays into the battery.
Once again the Thoroughtec team Andre, Adrian and crew did a very professional installation and the whole upgraded system works faultlessly.
The system has been running now for about a month now (July 2020) so the weather is fairly unpredictable sun wise, however according to the rather clever Tesla app, on my phone the house over the last ten days for example has been running on average between 90 to 100% on solar / battery power alone and when sunny throwing some back into the grid as well.
In summary the whole process with Mark Moody and Thoroughtec has been fantastic and if we have any queries there has never been a problem in asking for advice.

Very happy
We were replacing a non-functional solar system inherited with the house we purchased. Solaworx provided a series of quotes mainly dependant on budget. After a series of phone calls, all our queries were answered in a clear and friendly manner. There was clear communication throughout the process. Installation occurred faster than we expected, and the installation team are to be highly recommend.22 April 2020

Top of Shelf Solar Product & Service.
I was looking for a good solar system. Have a semi glazed terracotta tile roof with 30 degree pitch. Some installers were not interested. Some wanted to push a particular panel and size. Many would not have an on-site inspection until I signed up for a system. Not one mentioned Micro Inverters until I met with Andrea from Solarworx. Andrea knew his stuff especially the safety of micro inverters compared to DC inverter which impressed me. After the meeting I rang Mark Moody the Principal of SOLAWORX . Mark sent me 3 quotes within the hour of different panel selection and size of the system . My choice was Rec N-Peak Black Series 315 watt panels black rails and fixings with ENPHASE IQ 7+ inverters 10 kw system .Work was completed within the next week Solarworx is an authorised installer for Rec which gives extra warranty from Rec . Instala;tion went without a hitch. Only one tile was replaced.Totally recommend. Andrea has a great team well organised.

Great work under coronavirus constraints
We had decided several weeks ago to get more solar and a battery - around 6 Kw of panels. Mark from Solarworx was very prompt and helpful in getting us the quote and clearing up our questions. To our amazement, installation was to occur within a week. Then coronavirus restrictions started to escalate and, I am sure, deliveries of components began to be delayed. However, the work was done in the expected time and to a high standard. We were impressed by the team -led by Andre and Adrian - all very helpful and courteous.I would recommend Solarworx

Solaworx, fantastic service and high quality installers
Solaworx team members helped a "solar novice" through the process, explaining he technology and the best mix for my premises. My location had difficulties due to surrounding trees and the Solaworx team helped devise a system to maximise the outcomes from a solar system.The installation was quickly and professionally completed, and the team continued their support in showing me how the components were being installed and keeping me up to date on progress. They also provided help on "the next steps" of grid connection.
should i want to upgrade, or install a new system, Solarworx would be the first people i call.
