Solar Panel Repairs and Replacement
While solar panels are incredibly durable, they are not indestructible. Damage from storms, hail, water ingress, or internal faults can compromise your entire system.
Our solar panel repair services include:
- Testing individual panels for performance issues, such as microcracks and hot spots.
- Replacing defective or damaged panels with compatible, high-quality replacements.
- Checking and securing all rooftop wiring and connections.
- Addressing problems with bird or pest damage under your array.
- Investigating water leaks associated with panel mounting systems.
Solar Inverter Repairs & Replacement
The solar inverter is the heart of your system, converting the DC power from your panels into the AC power your home uses. It’s often the first component to show signs of failure.
Signs you need an inverter repair specialist:
- The inverter won’t turn on or has no lights.
- A persistent red or orange fault light is displayed.
- The screen is blank, faded, or showing an error code.
- The system is producing significantly less power than usual.
- Strange buzzing or humming noises are coming from the unit.
As your trusted Gold Coast solar electrician, we’re here to help you quickly identify what’s going wrong. Often, it’s a simple fix, but if your inverter has failed, no worries, we can provide and install a top-notch replacement from leading brands, complete with a new manufacturer’s warranty. We’re more than happy to guide you in selecting the best option that fits your budget and system size, making the process easy and stress-free.

Frequently Asked Questions - Solar Electrician on the Gold Coast
Q: Why has my electricity bill suddenly gone up, even though I have solar?
A: This is the most common sign of a solar system fault. It could be caused by a failed inverter, damaged panels, faulty wiring, or even increased shading that has built up over time. Our diagnostic service is designed to identify the exact cause and resolve it.
Q: My inverter has a red light on. What should I do?
A red light indicates a fault. First, try a simple system shutdown and restart (we can guide you over the phone). If the light stays red, it’s crucial to call a licenced solar electrician. Do not attempt to open the inverter yourself. Note down any error codes on the screen, as this helps us diagnose the problem more quickly.
Q: How often should I get my solar system serviced?
A: The Clean Energy Council and most manufacturers recommend a professional inspection and service at least once every two years. Given the Gold Coast’s coastal environment, an annual check-up is a wise investment to ensure safety and catch potential issues early.
Q: Is Solarcell accredited by the Clean Energy Council (CEC)?
Yes, all our solar electricians are fully licenced and CEC accredited for design and installation, guaranteeing safe, compliant, high-quality work.
Q: My solar panels look dirty. Does that really affect performance?
A: Yes, it can notably decrease your system’s output. A build-up of dirt, dust, salt spray, and bird droppings can block sunlight. Our professional solar panel cleaning service can restore your system’s efficiency, often increasing output by 10-25%.
Q: Can you fix my solar system if it was installed by another company?
Of course. We specialise in solar repairs and maintenance, regardless of the original installer, often helping homeowners whose initial installer is no longer in business.
Q: What is the cost of a solar system inspection on the Gold Coast?
A: The charge for a standard diagnostic call-out is very competitive. This fee covers our travel time and the thorough testing needed to accurately identify the fault. We will always let you know this cost upfront when you make a booking. After diagnosing the issue, we will provide a firm quote for the repair itself.
Q: Is it worth repairing an old solar inverter?
It depends on the age and fault. For older units outside warranty, replacing with a new, efficient model with a 5 or 10-year warranty is often more cost-effective. We provide honest recommendations based on your situation.
Q: Do you offer emergency solar repair services?
A: Yes. If you suspect a serious safety problem with your system, such as sparking, burning smells, or water damage, turn it off immediately (if you know how safely to do so) and contact us. We prioritise emergency calls to protect your home and family.
