Quality Matters
We only install equipment we trust — from brands that stand behind their products with long manufacturer guarantees and proven performance. Whether it’s solar panels, inverters, or batteries, we choose high-quality systems designed for reliability, efficiency, and peace of mind.
Below are some of the trusted manufacturers we work with — because when it comes to powering your home, quality really does matter.
How Much is a Solar & Battery Installation?
Hybrid systems combine solar panels with battery storage, giving you greater control over your energy use — whether it’s storing excess solar, reducing grid reliance, or taking advantage of off-peak tariffs.
Below are example prices for some of our most popular hybrid packages. Each one includes panels, inverter, battery, full installation, and certification — designed to give you a realistic idea of costs.
Every home is different, so when you’re ready, just hit “Free Design” and we’ll tailor the system to your property with accurate performance estimates and a safe, install-ready design.
