Great service
We really appreciated the personal service. They answered all our questions. The installation went smoothly and they have sorted out the connection with our electricity provider.02 February 2024
Fantastic customer service and installer. Highly recommend Wildman Solar!
Wildman Solar was one of the installers I received through Solarquotes. Dom was very professional, understood what I was looking for and answered all my questions. After a few conversations, Wildman Solar just felt like the right people to go with.Zac and the crew were ontime and even a bit of rain didn't stop them from getting the job done. They were polite and accommodating to were I want the inverter installed. Place was tidy after install was done.
Customer service has been great from start to finish! Danielle has been getting back to me even after install was done. Wildman Solar also help organise the grid connection, solar installation was done just before the Xmas and New Year break. They followed up with my vendor after the New Year when they notice there was still no confirmation response.
All in all, Wildman Solar have been Fantastic and my experience have been great.

Great experience
I reached out to Wildman Solar through Solar quotes and they were great to deal with. Helped me understand the whole process. Answered my questions patiently. Understood my future needs and recommended a premium system at an affordable price. On the day of installation they arrived promptly and did the whole job very professionally. I really liked the fact that they have their own installation team unlike others who outsource the job which sometimes leads to quality issues. Really happy with them and would highly recommend them to everyone.Inverter rating: 5/5

Outstanding communication, professionalism, installation, patience and attention to detail!
Dom from Wildman Solar is a knowledgeable and respectful professional who provides outstanding customer service and attention to detail. Throughout the quotation process, we contacted multiple solar companies over the course of a month and due to Dom's customer service and quality product, we decided to engage Wildman Solar.The installation process was flawless, Zac and his team were outstanding. They were punctual, polite, tidy and the quality of the work speaks volumes of the quality and integrity of their company.
We could not be happier with our Wildman Solar panels and accompanying system, the entire process was fantastic and I could not endorse their company more highly as they are exceptional.

Right from the start I felt comfortable dealing with Joshua. He made 3 recommendations and suggested the cheaper of the 3. Not connected up yet for reimbursement, but tracking the systems performance,
Joshua rang me to say he was running a bit late. Joshua explained everything about the systems on offer and answered all my questions to my satisfaction. My follow up phone calls with questions were answered promptly.Panel rating: 5/5

Wildman Solar Highly recommended
The process from initial contact through to installation was seamless. Josh was polite and factual in his explanation of the system, potential savings versus cost and at no time did we feel pressured. The installation was brilliant, the guys were friendly and diligent, punctual and hard working. Would not hesitate in recommending Wildman Solar.16 January 2024
Highly recommend Wildman Solar
From the first quote to the end of the process Wildman Solar were clear and helpful. They took care to make sure I knew what I needed to know. They didn't push one product on me, but talked through the pros and cons of different approaches. They got to know all my preferences and wishes and came up with a solution that worked best. At multiple points they went the extra mile to make sure I got the best possible solution, rather than just 'close enough'. At the install itself they took as much care as possible to make it neat and tidy and organised. the crew on site were polite and friendly and even happy to chat with my kids.04 January 2024
Excellent Job from Sales to Installation
It was great dealing with Wildman Solar with special mention to Dom from the Sales/Quoting team. Dom was great and has been patient in answering all my questions without hard selling. Pricing is reasonable knowing that i will get quality service and products including the materials used in their installation giving me peace of mind. The installers are well experienced as the whole installation process went smoothly and they are nice too. Great team!01 January 2024
Fantastic work
The team at Wildman solar gave me a couple of options to choose from with the benefits outlined. This made the narrowing down the best choice easier.21 December 2023
Acacia Place
The pre-sales, system design and on site install was great. The equipment has been working well smashing our power bills.The post sales service, response to questions and options to tune the installation was very poor.
Direct support from Fronius was very poor.
12 December 2023
Professional Installation and Excellent Customer Service
Dom gave me a comprehensive initial quote and followed up with a revised quote to include some alternative components I had requested. We had existing pool solar heating panels and piping that had to be removed to allow installation of the new solar panels and this was no problem for Dom to include for in his quotation (unlike some other installers).I had cheaper quotes from other installers but based on Dom's quote, together with his answers to quite a few questions I had, I decided to go with Wildman Solar and have had no regrets on my decision.
Installation of the solar system was done on the days Wildman Solar originally advised and was very tidy and complete.
After installation they organized for grid connection and hopefully this will not take too long to happen.
All the Wildman Solar crew from sales to installation were very polite and professional.
So far, a great company who I would highly recommend to anyone considering Solar.

Solar installation
Following sourcing a number of quotations on my own, I came across Wildman Solar through Solar Quotes, and obtained their quotation, which as it turned out was more cost effective than the other quotations, while using better quality materials - including the Fronius Inverter.From the outset, the customer service I received was nothing short of outstanding with Dom and Danielle handling my multitude of enquiries in the office, phone calls were returned, and further communication by both sms and emails made sure that I was well informed along every step of the way during the entire process from day one up to and AFTER the installation,
The installers turned up on time, worked without fuss, completed the job, helped me set up up the Fronius App , and made sure that I was happy with the system and its workings.
All in all, from my own experience, I cannot speak highly enough of the Wildman staff and installers, they were a credit to their company, and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.

Great installers from start to finish
From the first phone call to the installation everything went very smoothly. Josh, Zac and their team were knowledgeable, polite, tidy and their attention to detail was outstanding. Any questions we asked were answered and Danielle in the office nothing was a problem. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Wildman Solar.07 August 2023
Wildman Solar
Wildman Solar are a very professional company from Dom the sales representative who on multiple times answered all my queries in regards to different options and Zach and his team of installers that guided me through every step of the process, including dealing with my energy retailer in the replacement of my meter including the follow-up on the systems operation which then Zach pinpointed an issue and carried out the necessary adjustments to the system. The level of detail from this company is second to none, and is very hard to find these days and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Wildman Solar.Inverter rating: 5/5

Total Attention to Detail
The process from start to finish was easy with the team from Wildman Solar. The whole crew were polite, respectful, tidy and had total attention to detail during the entire install process. They were knowledgeable about every aspect and always happy to answer any questions. I can't imagine there would be any other installer who could do better than Joshua & Zechariah and their team.20 July 2023
Fantastic product knowledge, customer service and installers. I cannot recommend Wilman Solar highly enough!
From the first phone call to the installation, every member of the Wildman Solar team were polite, helpful and professional. They supplied quotes for two systems (micro inverter and string inverter) so we could easily compare them and we happy to answer all our questions. I was pleasantly surprised how tidy the installers were - they didn't leave any rubbish behind.Inverter rating: 5/5

Game changer
From the moment I was contacted by Wildman till now the customer service has been amazing. Dom was very knowlegable and helpful - solar can seem like a mine field and Dom was so good at providing the information.Their pricing was competive - but it was the customer service that won me over.
The install arrived as agreed and were very professional and were able to make a few tweaks to the plan to give me the best solar outcome.
I'm so happy with Wildman Solar that they will be installing for my daughter and I would hesitate in recommending the team.

Great service and communication
The team at Wildman were great. They listened to my needs and were punctual and professional. Thanks to Dom and the team.16 May 2023
An amazing customer-centric experience.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Taylor Binns from Wildman Solar. The experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment I spoke with Taylor over the phone, his dedication to providing top-notch customer service and the best solution, was evident.Taylor's approach was refreshingly customer-centric. He was very comfortable to talk to, right off the bat. His knowledge and expertise in the solar industry were impressive, and he freely provided me with comprehensive information and guidance without the guarantee of a sale. He never criticised the competition (unlike other companies I engaged for quotes) and in fact, gave credit where credit was due to Wildman Solar's competition. That showed me the confidences he had in Wildman Solar's service.
Throughout the entire process, Taylor ensured that I felt confident and informed, addressing any questions or uncertainties I had. His professionalism and responsiveness were exemplary, making the entire journey smooth and stress-free.
On the day of the installation, Taylor and his team demonstrated utmost care and skill. The entire process was impeccably executed. Not only did they complete the installation fast and efficiently, but they also left my property spotless; as if they were never here. It was a testament to their commitment to providing a white-glove experience. The only negative I can think of is I wish I was asked about the location of the Enphase board installation.
Wildman Solar tried to do the leg work for upgrading our meter but our provider would not let them needing me to do it. I appreciate the effort though.
The performance of our system has been great. Our total spend since install would have been $659.67 but instead, it is $289.42 (56% reduction in our bill). See attached screenshot. The Enphase interface into the system (both phone app and desktop web) is very good, giving both a great high level and detailed view.
I can strongly recommend Taylor Binns and Wildman Solar for their outstanding service. Taylor's dedication, expertise, and genuine care make him a true professional in his field. If you are looking for a solar solution with exceptional customer service and an installation executed flawlessly, look no further than Taylor and the team at Wildman Solar. They're the best.
Thank you, Taylor, for going above and beyond to ensure my satisfaction. I am thrilled with the outcome and grateful for the exceptional service you and the team provided.

Beyond my expectations!!
Forget about getting quotes, Wildman Solar are your go to team.Wildman solar were brilliant from the start. Very informative and direct about their products. They offered a range of products that helped me narrow down my choices, which I found not many solar companies do. I dealt with Zach all the way through to installation and beyond, and he helped me answer any questions I had (even till now) without hesitation and delay. The Wildman Solar team were very polite, efficient and tidy during the entire process and the final product blew me away. I highly recommend the Wildman Solar team for any solar project.

Good mad and tidy installation
I was getting quote for Solar from various solar installers including solar quotes referred platinum installers, however they all don’t want to listen what I say and they enforce things which easy for them, example cut 3 x exhaust pipe(stink pipe) on my roof and told me there is no other way to install 20 sun power maxeon 6 panels of 8.4 KW in 3 roof space of my 2 storey home.However finally I found Zech from Wildman solar, his quote was very competitive and also he listened what I wanted and gave me quote to install 20 sun power maxeon panels in 3 x roof space plus lower level too without cutting/trimming exhaust pipes on roof.
He was very polite, honest and prompt on communicative when delay in panel supply. He answer all my doubts without any hesitant too.
Zech and his team came in late October 2022 and neatly installed panels and installed an envoy box inside the fence as I requested and no cables visible on roof space too. They took around 6 hours to install and clean up all rubbish all
Well done Zech and team keep up the good work, wishing them and Wildman Solar to expand the business to other states as well.

Great service and great product
Of the three providers offered by Solar Quotes, Wildman Solar was the only one that provided a quote. They were on to it straight away. They offered a Fronius Wattpilot. We have had a Fronius inverter with our solar PV panels for about seven years without any problems. So, it seemed like a no-brainer to get the Wattpilot, as it integrates with our existing system and offers great features. After a few minutes learning how to use the app, I’m now running my EV on only sunshine. Zach and Rogers came on time, did the job and were very pleasant and generous with their time and knowledge. It took them more than four hours to complete the install and it was much more complex than I had imagined. I was going to get the very good electrician to do the installation, but I noted Finn’s very good advice to get the equipment from the specialist installer. I recommend Wildman Solar without any reservation.Inverter rating: 5/5

Amazing team, would recommend to friends and family
How was the sales/quoting process?Very detailed and straight to the point, helped explain pros and cons of technologies and was open to recommendations and alternatives
How did the installation go? Polite? Tidy? Punctual?
Smooth, fast and efficient.
How was the customer service? e.g. did they help organise the grid connection after the install?
Absolutely amazing, they handled everything and had full trust on what they were doing.

Excellent solar install
From initial quote through to final installation I found this company to be highly professional and personable. They politely and patiently answered all my concerns throughout the whole process. On the day of installation they were very punctual (given the distance they had to travel), performed all aspects required to mount the solar panels properly and securely on my roof and secured the inverter and all electrical components to a very high standard. I was extremely impressed with the entire process and would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone interested.

So lovely to deal with, and so honest.

Excellent experience
The work carried out by Wildman Solar team to install a solar system in my property was phenomenal. The team indicated a timeslot to arrive at the property, duration of work to be performed, turn off power to connect the solar system well in advance. I was initially told that the power will be shut off for an hour but it turns out that the power was only turned off for 10 mins, causing minimal disruption. The Wildman team had everything planned and lined up well and executed with minimal impact which is a great achievement. The team at Wildman Solar had always kept me updated during the entire process starting from generating the initial quote for solar system to organizing all the paper work to connect to the grid. I am very happy with Wildman Solar.03 March 2023
Fantastic Solar installation
Such a professional team. The team came to our property to inspect the site and discuss suitable solar options both AC and DC . We received the quotes on the same day as the inspection. The guys were extremely patient with us as we worked through obtaining a green loan from the commonwealth bank. Wildman Solar ticked all the boxes for accreditation.Installation was hassle free, the team was always polite,tidy and punctual.
The supply, installation,testing and commissioning as well as arranging grid connection was seamless.
We had the system 8.8kw AC solar system installed in September 22 and it has far exceeded our expectations reaching higher outputs than what was envisaged within the quotes.
We consider Wildman Solar a tier one solar company and recommend them to all those considering a solar system.
Thank you Wildman Solar for providing a solar system that is second to none.

Wildman Installation in Bathurst
Wildman installed the solar system of solar panels (Qcells) and an inverter (Fronius) at our home. The job was carried out to a high standard and they upgraded the inverter for nothing. Fully recommend this company and the employees.11 January 2023

We recently had a solar system installed at our home in Bilpin by Wildman Solar. Taylor and the team are the best bunch of people around. Polite, professional and hard working. They just got on with the job and obviously know what they are doing, We had a small problem with the power supply into the property and Taylor quickly had that sorted and attended to within 24 hours.We would highly recommend Wildman Solar.

Outstanding installation!
Right from the get go, Taylor was very happy to answer any question i had for him. He had also called me on a Friday afternoon, and as i was heading to work, asked him if he would be able to give me a call on Saturday morning to organise a quote. He said that it wouldn't be a problem and called me at 10am Saturday.The quote he gave me was very competitive and we decided to go with Wildman. This was the best decision we could have made as other installers continually rubbished each other trying to scare me into going with them. Taylor never once asked me what other quotes I got or tried to rubbish other installers who had given me a quote. Taylor just focused on what they could offer and put my mind at ease with any question that I had for him.
As tradesmen, Taylor, Zech, and Josh are some of the best tradesmen that I've ever had to deal with. Polite and super respectful not to damage anything on my property and of course fantastic installers. The job they did was flawless. When I look at other houses in my street and the dodgy jobs other installers have done compared to mine, it puts my mind at ease that this was money well spent. Things like rails cut to perfection and the inverter installed without running wires down conduit but instead internally routed down my wall to the inverter.
I will most certainly be using Wildman for any electrical job I need around the house as they are truly legendary sparkys and cannot recommend them enough. Ive attached some photos of the outstanding job they did installing my solar.

Knowledge and understanding
As at writing this review, our installation date is still a few weeks off.I always expected the process of setting requirements and negotiating the required system was going to be fraught due primarily to the fact that I knew very little about solar photovoltaic systems.
I found that Wildman Solar took the time to: understand, question, and advise; on the system. It was very helpful that the salesman was also an electrician, and was able to explain to me what expectations I should have from the system, particularly when the grid went down and I was only on battery power. He went to great lengths to explain what the limitations of the battery would be, and what electrical systems I could run when the grid was down and why.

Quality Installers
I was looking to replace my 1.5Kw system with a 6.6kw system. I elected to only have two quotes through SolarQuotes and received both quotes promptly. I decided to go locally and used Wildman Solar. Naturally I did some checks, by reading some reviews and checking out their ABN. This team of young men have only been in business for a little over 18 months, but don't let that put you off, as everybody has to start somewhere. This team of young men know the products,present well, are very polite, very accommodating with design and answering any questions I had for them.
Their workmanship is second to none and I have no hesitations in recommending them.
If you are thinking of getting a solar system make sure one of your quotes is from Wildman Solar, and if you decide to use them, I am sure you will be like me, a very happy customer.

Very Happy Wildman Customer
I would like to thank Taylor and his entire team, who ensured that the process to install Solar was smooth from start to finish.They were able to answer and satisfy all my questions before I made a decision while being super friendly, courteous and not at all pushy.
Installation went ahead as planned. Taylor's team were punctual, polite, professional and very tidy with their work.
Grid connection all sorted on their end with no problems experienced.
I would not hesitate to recommend Wildman Solar for anyone wanting to get their first Solar System installed.

Wildman Solar were very professional and thorough.
The quoting process with Wildman Solar was very easy and informative. Their pricing on a quality solar system was realistic and very competitive. They arrived on time and as planned. Each tradesman introduced themselves and were very polite and courteous. I was very impressed with their safe manor of work. Advising me of the installation process before doing their safety checks and requirements of placing safety barriers around the job site.The installation of my quality Solar system went very smoothly. I'm extremely happy with my new solar system from Wildman Solar and the great service I received. Wildman Solar were very professional in all aspects and I would highly recommend them.

High Quality Installation
I went with Wildman Solar because of how engaging Taylor was from the outset, he provided me two quotes for my house and as I learned more about solar he did a third quote to include a hot water relay in the system. I made it clear to Taylor I wanted something that performed well and looked the part on my roof and on the day of the installation it was clear I made a great choice. My panels are perfectly centred on my roof, evenly distributed and perfectly aligned. All wiring from panels to circuit board were run in the wall cavities with not a single piece of conduit to be seen. After sales support as also been top notch from both Taylor and Zech who have helped me understand the system monitoring.I have already recommended Wildman Solar to a couple of my colleagues, two great guys for sure!
