Specialized Solar Solar Reviews
Excellent technical knowledge, quality install, great support
Adam discussed the technical issues in detail, the quote was detailed and the cost satisfactory, installation went well and the process of handover was smooth. Show additional informationGood job, well done
Will and his team came at 7:20am and left at 5pm having worked consistently all day. Good safety procedures, pleasant people who cleared up after themselves and left everything tidy. Show additional informationRecommend Spec Solar
Awesome customer service through entire process. Knowledgeable sales, good installation and thorough follow up and connecting to grid. Had a really good experience with Specialized Solar Show additional informationGreat installer
Installers were excellent, although there was a miscommunication on the fact one part was missing and the part ( meter to go in meter box) should have been installed quickly and took another week to install.Took anther 4 days for part to be made operational. Show additional informationA fully professional job
The sales and quoting process was pure business, not a friendly chatty experience. However, this gave me confidence that I was dealing with a decent, B/S free professional outfit, maybe I annoyed the sales guy because I kept changing my mind as to what I wanted. I started at 5kW and finally settled on a 10.3kW system. The installation team arrived on time and finished as planned the next day. The guys were pleasant and efficient and left the area clean and tidy. They organised the safety inspection and grid connection for the following week (yesterday) and after one sunny day and one cloudy day of operation the system has pumped out 58kWh of clean energy; Fantastic!! Show additional informationProfessional and prompt in their dealings and a top quality installation
The salesperson was responsive and helpful and adjusted the system to suit my needs, which were a little unusual (I wanted a higher end inverter and just a few panels so it could be fit within a budget, which didn't make a lot of sense except that it was all to do with timing! anyway, I ended up spending extra to do it properly in one go, but they were helpful nonetheless Show additional informationPoor installation
Rough installation. I had cracked and broken tiles, rubbish left on my roof, penetrations through the roof not water tight, sarking tape not sealed correctly. I picked Specialized solar due to their years of experience in the trade but got rough and rushed work from their contractors. Besides the installation their sales and customer service team were great, couldn’t say a bad thing about them. Sad that poor contractors let a company down. Show additional informationFailure to site inspect
Despite my encouragement that they inspect the site before installation they chose not to. They quoted on a single storey property judged by a google map image. I corrected them that it was 2 storey. Later they indicated it was a flat roof. I again corrected them that it was a gabled roof. They turned up for the installation but left as they said they were not adequately equipped but would return another day. This has given me little confidence in this "recomended" company but to change or get new quotes is more inconvenience.I now have to wait for them to re-schedule the installation.

The sales and quoting process went well - was not over sold to, down to earth salesman. Install crew were punctual and polite.

Show additional informationGood company
All done via email. Punctual and no hassle efficient installation Very helpful with obtaining government rebate. Show additional informationPleasure to deal with - Very happy customer!
All the way through from quotes to installation Specialised Solar have been absolutely excellent to deal with.Sales team was great to work with, prompt responses via phone and email, very knowledgeable about the systems and hardware they offer, and more than happy to get into the nerdy details for those so inclined.
Installation team arrived on time, were great to talk to, and the attention to detail on the inverter and panel installation is second to none. Everything lines up, nothing crooked or rushed, and to top it off they left the garage as clean if not cleaner than before they arrived.
I would happily recommend Specialised Solar to anybody looking for great price and service on a solar installation. Show additional information

We have found in dealing with Specialized Solar that they have been very professional.
In addition, they provided excellent customer service and have an extensive knowledge in the various system configurations and panel requirements.
From the time they quoted our job, and to the final installation, they provided us with ongoing follow up phone & e-mail communications.
This made the process easier for us, as they provided clear timelines & managed the “Red Tape” associated with these type of works.
We would recommend them to anyone interested in Solar Panels
Thank you so much for leaving this very detailed review. That's great news.
I'll be sure to pass your kind words onto the Specialized Solar Solutions Team, whom you've delt with from start to finish.

I have the most pleasant experience with this solar installation. Prior to installation, Nathanael is very information and professional. He is not “pushy” but very courteous throughout the whole transaction. A great asset to the company.
Next the team behind the team is just as professional and courteous. Chelsea ( whom I have never met ) is a gem. Whenever she replies her email or answering her calls she is very understanding ,kind, courteous and will bend herself backwards to help solve ant queries or questions. She makes me feel very comfortable talking to her and she is patient. With staff like this, the company will go a long way. Personally I think she deserves a pay rise if she has not have one yet!!
The next lady named Gemma (whom I have never had any dealings with before) had just forwarded me an email explaining to me what I will be expecting post installation. In her email she is showing all the attributes of her colleagues. Keep up the good work Gemma.
With regards to the installers they were very polite, tidy, knowledgeable about their work and it’s expectations.They were also very punctual and professional in their approach.
All in all everything that is done and accomplished with this installation has been a very excellent experience and the last thing that I want to have a fantastic experience is for the solar system to work effectively and efficiently.
Finally, would I recommend this company to my relatives and friends? Yes, with no reservations of course!!!
Thank you for leaving such kind words about your experience with us.
It has been an absolute pleasure, helping you with the steps of you installation.
I will be sure to pass your kind words onto Chelsea, Jemma , Nathaniel and the Install team, I'm positive it will make their day.

Very happy with the system and the service. A little bit more communication immediately after the install, about the status of the system and how to operate it, would have made the whole experience a perfect 10! Apart from that detail, very happy.

I looked into solar for my home several years ago and found it all to hard to work through, who or what was the best solar and gave up. Something I hear common among friends. Finding SOLARQUOTES web site was the best. It broke down every thing about solar that could be easily understood and gave me a great understanding of the manufactures and models to look for. I have already told friends to use Solarquotes as a great start. Thank you

Kept getting pushed back due to weather (I get it, can't control that), however the next available installation was always weeks later. Didn't feel like I was a priority. Chelsea who was the contact was lovely though and did her best to make me feel like a valued customer. Install team didn't call before either of the visits.

Spec Solar were great to work with. Anthony Igmen was the BDM who managed the process for me, and was very knowledgeable about what they could offer, configuration, time frames, and was willing to work with me to get the price down, based on our needs, and other offers.

My experience with Specialized Solar Solutions has been positive all the way through from the initial quoting process with Anthony to installation with Joel and his team.
There has been good communication and the necessary paperwork has been processed quickly.
We're still waiting on Ausnet to do the meter but the system is working above our expectations.

Good communication, fast responses by Specialized Solar. Initial quoted panel distribution in 2 strings (16/6) not suitable for inverter, needed to be altered on installation date (12/10). Slight issue with electric installers not setting up wireless monitoring correctly, needed to contact Inverter manufacturer to resolve issue.

Specialized Solar Solutions were good to deal with and an accidentally broken skylight was replaced quickly. They listened and made good suggestions about what we could do (inverter location and panel arrangement options) when other potential suppliers didn't or wouldn't (in order to make the install easy for them).
Thank you for your positive review.
We appreciate your feedback and thank you for your understanding regarding the skylight.
As you know these things can happen but the most important thing is making sure it gets fixed asap when they do.

Charles and the team were very helpful and informative all the way through to post installation. They were always happy to answer all our questions and provide information to help us make a well informed decision. Installation was seamless and tidy.
Inspection took 4 weeks but I am led to believe that is because of our rural location. Once done paperwork was filed promptly and submitted to our power company.
So far we have halved our electricity bill and we are looking forward to receiving a further reduction to our bill once AGL get round to remotely reconfiguring our meter which can take up to 4 weeks!!
