Solar repairs and inverter replacement in Kippa-Ring
Health checks, fault finding and inverter replacements for any brand of solar system in Kippa-Ring, including ones we did not install.
Repairs & upgrades for Kippa-Ring, planned around your home
Inverters are the hardest working part of a solar system and most last 10 to 15 years. When one fails, your panels keep sitting in the sun but you get nothing from them. Many Kippa-Ring homes also have systems that were installed by companies no longer around.
We test the array, inverter, isolators and wiring, then give you a clear written report. If replacement makes more sense, we will quote a like-for-like inverter or a hybrid inverter that is ready for a battery.
North Brisbane and Moreton Bay run from Albany Creek and Strathpine through North Lakes and Narangba to Caboolture and Bribie Island, taking in the Redcliffe Peninsula and acreage around Samford and Dayboro. From Kippa-Ring to nearby Newport and Redcliffe, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.

Getting to know Kippa-Ring
The unusual name joins kippa, a Kabi word for a young uninitiated man, with ring, a nod to a bora ring. Farms and small businesses filled the area until the 1950s and 1960s. Houses then spread across it through the 1960s and 1970s, the state school opened in 1960, and the suburb was formally created in 1971. Swampy land to the north, once called Kippering Flats, became part of the Newport canals.

Repairs & upgrades in Kippa-Ring: questions
Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
Call 0449 942 735How do I know if my solar system is faulty?
Common signs are an inverter showing a red light or error code, a blank screen during the day, a power bill that jumps without a change in usage, or monitoring that shows zero output on a sunny day.
Do you fix systems you did not install?
Yes. A lot of our repair work in Kippa-Ring is on systems from companies that have since closed. We work on all mainstream brands.
Should I repair or replace my inverter?
If the inverter is under warranty, we will help you claim it. If it is over 10 years old and out of warranty, replacing it is usually better value than repairing, and it is a good moment to consider a battery-ready hybrid.
How often should solar panels be checked?
Every two to three years is a good rule, or sooner near the coast where salt air is harder on fixings and isolators.
Do you service Kippa-Ring 4021 and nearby suburbs?
Yes. Kippa-Ring is part of our North Brisbane & Moreton Bay service area in the City of Moreton Bay area, and we regularly work in Newport, Redcliffe, Clontarf, Margate. Call 0449 942 735 or request a quote online and we will reply within 24 hours.
