I highly recommend Halcol for solar. From the salesman to the admin team to the installation team they were all very well informed, answered any questions we had in a very timely manner. After they installed the system they happily explained how everything worked and even explained what I had to do with my electric company. Very good team.

One of the problems I faced when researching for Solar was trying to find someone I trusted. Halcol having been around for a long time felt like the right choice.
I initially spoke with Tony and the whole process from start to finish was fantastic. The service, the professionalism and the response times were very, very good.
If you are thinking about getting solar installed Halcol is the team you should choose. Thanks guys.

We recently had Solar installed at our home. The staff were extremely informative and gave us several options to choose from especially to suit our individual living needs with competitive prices to.
Reliable, efficient and professional at all times. Even a few weeks after installation we had a few questions as it was our first time having Solar & the staff were quick to respond & very helpful without any hesitation.
I would highly recommend and we will most certainly use the Halcol team for our future properties. Also if you have any enquiries about Tesla - Halcol are very much up to date on the product. Thanks Again Andrew

Price and installation was great. Unfortunately it took over 5 weeks to address a leak in the roof after the installation. Twice they failed to turn up on the days they were supposed to.

Seems a good quality product at a fair price. Most important to me was that there was no pressure applied for the sale- very relaxed approach which is what I like before making any big purchases. Fit out crew turned up on time, completed the job neatly and cleaned up well. No hassles with paperwork etc either. Overal very happy a few months after purchase!

Halcol quoted with 48 hrs then installed with 1 week of our local utility approval. Very neat wiring installation and the installation team took the time to ask where we wanted the panels so as there aren't visible from the entrance which was highly appreciated. Very efficient install team.
Highly recommended.

We had a door knocker from another company do the hard sell on us offering a golden egg laying goose. Halcol took the time to give a realistic assessment and explain varying scenarios for return on my investment. Install crew were fast, friendly, professional and left no mess. Nice job!

Halcol provided a quote within 2 hours and fitted my replacement solar inverter within 2 days. Administration staff were very helpful. Installation crew attended on time and competed the install in a timely manner. They were very thorough and helpful with the operating procedures of both the inverter and the app.

We have used Halcol to install Solar at Bribie Island and again when we moved to Deception Bay. We also used them to add additional panels at Deception Bay. On all occasions, we found them to be extremely informative and easy to deal with from the first call to Installation.
I recently had a problem with an Inverter and decided to call Halcol and got the same friendly service. The guys were here prompt at 7:00 am, they were helpful, extremely efficient in replacing the Inverter, checking the panels on the roof and running through the Inverter with me all within an hour.
I highly recommend talking to Halcol for Solar Installations; they get the job done and excellent after-sales service.
Thank you guys!

Happy with the whole process. We had a meeting for a quote that was very thorough and the installation went smoothly. We had to contact them when we changed ISP to get the monitoring sorted out and they promptly send instruction. Good service experience.

I was keen to engage with a company that appeared professional and had more than just a brief history on the Sunny Coast. That is what I found from Simon Todd in sales through to their installation crew led by Luke. Any concerns I may have had evaporated with a swift response in product advice and fit out. I would be happy to use their services again and also happily encourage any of my friends and family to follow my lead, thank you Halcol, pleasure dealing with all you guys.

We are based in Brisbane and I’m an extremely happy customer and have no hesitation is recommending Halcol. I’m a big believer in you get what you pay for and I’m happy with the price considering the quality parts used.
Our sales Consultant Tony presented us with a couple of different options and didn’t do the hard sell or pressure us to sign up while he was there.
When the install team turned up on time and were friendly and polite. I’m one of those annoying customers who like to ask lots of questions only because I like to understand how things work and the install team were more than happy to answer my questions. The Installation was extremely very neat and the best part is they cleaned up after themselves.

From the initial meeting to the completion of our installation, everything was hassle free. Very satisfied with our solar. Has reduced our 6 person household usage significantly and seeing even bigger figures generated by our system coming into summer. 41kw/day on some days and it’s only November. Wouldn’t use anyone else.

Thank you for getting my existing Solar system back up and running in record time. The service Halcol provided was the best I have experienced in 20 years living on The Sunshine Coast. I was back earning Solar credits 24 hours before the big name company I originally purchased the system from even bothered to return my call. A big thanks to Eve and to Alex for the professional install

07:55 19 Feb 20
A great big thank you to Halcol Energy on the Sunshine Coast. After an introduction through Solar Quotes, Halcol dropped by, gave an overview of the installation, provided a competitive quote using top quality Canadian panels (20 x 3.3 kW panels) with a Sofar 5kW inverter. After accepting the quote, we got a very speedy install (due to a cancellation). The guys were super good on site installing panels on a 32 degree day, installing the inverter with a lot of wiring work on the switchboards. Instantly generating solar power - it’s a good feeling - and good savings after a very short 2.5 years pay back period.
Highly recommend Halcol and the equipment they use and Solar Quotes who gave great information at the start.
Cheers
Darryl and Steph
