Best Solar Solutions

Hi Everyone,

Best Solar Solutions are two brothers, James and Michael, who have 15+ years experience in the solar industry, with 1000s of systems installed.

We specialise in all aspects of rooftop solar, including residential and commercial systems, battery storage and off-grid standalone systems.

Our aim is to provide quality, tailor made solutions for your specific needs, to ensure you get the best system design.

Over the years we’ve found that people investing in a solar system are often left in the dark about the condition of there roofs. Many companies employ installers that are only worried about completing jobs, and not taking care to protect one of the most important aspects of the home, the roof.

So often we are contacted by people who have leaking issues after they have solar installed. Damage by installers, and incorrect installation are often the cause. Sometimes the issue is that the roof is in need of significant repairs.

At Best Solar Solutions we provide a comprehensive roof report with all of our solar quotations, obligation free, to give you the information you need to make a decision on what is best for your home.

These pictures show a recent job we completed. The owner had significant roof leaks due to the incorrect installation of waterproofing and flashing. We worked with the customer to determine a replacement roof in corrugated steel would be the best solution before installation of solar panels.

Please feel free to visit our page where you can find our contact details and to see some of our recent installations.

This was a tough job, which many other installers turned down. The combination of steep pitch and terracotta tiles made this difficult. We were able to get this installed and make the customers day

This was a 20 kW system we installed on a two story new build in Freshwater. We loved working with the owner and builder on this job to provide another unique and high quality system.

This was a one of a kind build that the owner and builder conceived together using premium materials and traditional building techniques that aren’t seen much in modern houses. The most striking aspect of this house was the mix of Australian hardwood cladding that was used on the exterior.

One of the big challenges we faced was that the builder didn’t want any roof pe*******ons for our cabling! He and the owner spent a lot of time focusing on waterproofing, and as such he was offended that we want to drill holes in his nice new colour bond roof. While it is virtually impossible to not pe*****te the roof when installing solar without running conduit all over the exterior (something that you definitely don’t want on a beautiful new build with Australian hardwood cladding), we stood around and scratched our heads for a while until inspiration hit!

We were able to find a section of the tin roof over an eve that ran outside of the main water proofing of the house and enter the interior through the wall section that was protected by the overhead eve. This single pe*******on was a compromise that the builder and owner thanked us for, and we were happy to oblige on such a beautiful build!
