Solar repairs and inverter replacement in North Lakes
Health checks, fault finding and inverter replacements for any brand of solar system in North Lakes, including ones we did not install.
Repairs & upgrades for North Lakes, 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 North Lakes 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 North Lakes to nearby Dakabin and Mango Hill, we quote every job in person so the price you sign is the price you pay.
- Newer homes in North Lakes usually have clean, unshaded roofs and modern switchboards, which keeps installs quick. Estate covenants rarely restrict solar, but we check before we quote.

Getting to know North Lakes
Before the estate, this land bred police horses from 1891, then became a dairy, a pineapple farm and finally slash pine plantations. Lend Lease flagged a master planned community in 1995, and work began on a 1,000 hectare site in April 1999. Stockland took over Lensworth's share in 2004, and North Lakes was gazetted as its own suburb, separate from Mango Hill, in February 2006.

Repairs & upgrades in North Lakes: 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 North Lakes 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 North Lakes 4509 and nearby suburbs?
Yes. North Lakes is part of our North Brisbane & Moreton Bay service area in the City of Moreton Bay area, and we regularly work in Dakabin, Mango Hill, Kallangur, Kurwongbah. Call 0449 942 735 or request a quote online and we will reply within 24 hours.
