Going solar in Clayfield
Brisbane's northside ranges from the grand old homes of Ascot, Hamilton and Clayfield to family suburbs like Aspley, Chermside and Bracken Ridge and the bayside villages of Sandgate and Shorncliffe.
Brisbane covers everything from Queenslanders with tin roofs and tight inner-city lots to big brick homes in the southern and western suburbs. Every roof is different, which is why we measure and design each one on site.
Clayfield is on the Energex network. Most homes can export up to 5kW per phase on a standard connection, and newer dynamic connections allow more. We size your inverter to get the most from those limits and lodge the Energex application for you.
- Many Clayfield homes are character Queenslanders and older workers cottages with corrugated iron roofs. Tin roofs are quick to mount on, and we keep conduit runs neat and out of sight on heritage-style facades.

Clayfield: history and local area
Fine white-grey clay dug in Albion fed brickworks near Sandgate Road, and that clay gave Clayfield its name. A Baptist church opened in 1874, and estates like Sefton, Isleton and Noble were auctioned from 1885 to 1888. The state school opened in 1895 and became Eagle Junction State School in 1901. St Agatha's, St Rita's College and Clayfield College all opened between 1925 and 1931.
Roughly 7.4 kilometres by road north-east of the city, Clayfield takes in the Eagle Junction area and runs up to Kalinga Park. Heritage-listed homes are plentiful, including Federation, interwar and California bungalow styles alongside classic Queenslanders. Trains stop at both Clayfield and Eagle Junction, and four schools sit within the suburb, making it a busy spot at drop-off time.
California bungalows and Federation homes often have hipped roofs with several faces, which suits splitting panels east and west to spread generation across the day for families home after school.
