Frequently Asked Questions - Solar Panel Repairs Brisbane
Q: How much do solar panel repairs cost in Brisbane?
A: Solar panel repair costs vary by fault. Replacing a faulty isolator costs a few hundred dollars, while replacing a premium inverter or multiple panels costs more. Solarcell offers diagnostics and upfront quotes for transparency.
Q: Can all solar panels be repaired?
A: It depends on the extent of the damage. Minor issues or connection faults can usually be fixed. However, physical damage such as cracks, shattered glass, or significant water ingress means the panel cannot be repaired and needs to be replaced. We will always aim to provide the most cost-effective and safe solution.
Q: My solar system is old. Is it worth repairing?
In many cases, yes. If a single component like the inverter is faulty, replacing it can extend your system’s life cheaply. We can assess your entire system and advise whether repair or full upgrade is better for long-term value.
Q: How do I know if my solar panels need cleaning?
A visual inspection can reveal dirt, dust, or bird droppings, but a noticeable drop in energy on sunny days is more reliable. Professional cleaning can boost performance by 5-20%.
Q: Do you offer a warranty on your repairs?
A: Absolutely. We stand by the quality of our work. We offer a comprehensive warranty on our workmanship, and any new parts we install, such as inverters or panels, come with a full manufacturer’s warranty.
Q: Is my solar inverter covered under warranty?
A: Most solar inverters come with a 5 or 10-year warranty. If your system is still within this period, a fault might be covered. We can assist you with the warranty claim process with the manufacturer, taking care of the paperwork and replacement for you.
