The problem

Solar shopping is a part-time job nobody asked for.

Getting solar in North Queensland shouldn't take weeks. But between juggling sales reps, decoding jargon-filled quotes and second-guessing every brand name, most homeowners burn out before they even sign.

1.

The door-knocker / phone-caller

WHAT THEY DO

"One-time deal — but only if you sign today." Their commission expires if you take 24 hours to think.


WHAT I DO

I get you comparable quotes without a single sales call. No deadlines, no doorstep pressure — take your time and pick.

2.

The oversized system

WHAT THEY DO

"You need a 13kW system for this house." Bigger system = bigger commission, not bigger value.


WHAT I DO

My installers know you'll be comparing quotes side-by-side. Oversizing stands out. They sharpen up.

3.

The missed rebates

WHAT THEY DO

Claim the obvious STCs, skip the rest. Harder-to-claim rebates get left off the quote.


WHAT I DO

My installers compete to claim every rebate that applies –– side-by-side comparison forces it. Whoever maxes rebates wins your job.

4.

The dodgy installer

WHAT THEY DO

Subbed-out installs, missed warranty paperwork, ghosted after install.


WHAT I DO

I only deal with quality solar installers who've been around for decades. The cowboys don't make it onto my list –– and the ones still standing in NQ got there by doing the work properly.

5.

The fine-print contract

WHAT THEY DO

7-year maintenance plans you didn't notice. Auto-renewing finance, cancellation fees buried in clause 14.


WHAT I DO

When my installers know the comparison is live, hidden fees lose them the job. They don't bother –– the quote you see is the quote you pay.

6.

Whatever panels are in the warehouse

WHAT THEY DO

Sell whatever the wholesaler stocks. You don't know if you're getting tier-1 or budget panels.


WHAT I DO

My installers compete on spec side-by-side. You can see exactly which panels each is offering –– brand, warranty, price.

Solar made simple, the NQ way.

Built to last

Only the good ones make our list.

North Queensland is brutal on solar. Cyclones, salt air, 35°C summers — cheap systems don't survive. That's why we only work with installers who've proven themselves over decades, with the warranties and local support to back it up.

20+ years of installs, minimum

Every installer we partner with has been operating in North Queensland for over two decades. They've seen the cyclones come and go — and so have their systems.

Real after-install support

Solar doesn't end at switch-on. Our partners actually answer the phone five years later — for monitoring, warranty claims and panel cleans alike.

Tier-1 panels & top inverters only

We won't put a budget-brand panel on your roof to win on price. Quality components, properly sized, properly installed — that's the bar.

Cyclone-rated mounting & wiring

From Mackay to the Tip, every install meets cyclone-region standards. No shortcuts, no rust-magnet brackets, no "she'll be right" wiring.

Townsville local.
Here to help NQ families.

I'm on a mission to help North Queensland families get the best value solar. I don't install, I don't sell — I just do the hard work of shopping your job around quality solar installers who've been around for decades. You save time, save money, and end up with the best solar setup for your house.

Got a quote you're not sure about? Or thinking about solar but don't know where to start? Either way — let me do the running around.

Common questions

The honest answers to what you're wondering.

Nothing. It's 100% free to you. We're paid a referral fee by the installer you eventually pick — same fee no matter which one — so we've got no reason to favour one over another.
The installer you choose pays us a referral fee for sending you their way — same way a mortgage broker is paid by the lender. The fee comes out of their margin, not your price. They don't inflate the quote to cover it, because they know they're competing side-by-side with the others.
Not at all. No contract, no obligation, no pressure. You walk away if nothing stacks up — and if you come back later when you're ready, we'll still be here.
Our installer partners stick around for the long haul — warranty claims, monitoring, panel cleans, the lot. If anything goes sideways, we're still available to help you sort it.
Yep. Most of our installers handle batteries and EV chargers alongside the solar install — just flag it on your enquiry and we'll get the quotes scoped to include them.
They've been around for decades, they install tier-1 panels and top inverters, they meet cyclone-region standards, and they answer the phone five years after install. We don't add cowboys to the list, no matter what they offer in commission.
Forward it through anyway. We use it as the floor our installers have to beat — and if no one beats it, you've at least confirmed your existing quote stacks up. Worst case, you've cost yourself five minutes.
All of it. From Mackay to the Tip — Townsville, Cairns, Bowen, Ayr, Charters Towers, Innisfail, Atherton, Magnetic Island and everywhere in between. If your installer can drive to you, we'll find them.
Within 48 hours, comparable quotes back in your inbox. Often faster. No high-pressure follow-ups, no chasing — just the quotes laid out side-by-side.
