Tesla & Enphase Certified Solar, Battery & EV Installers in Melbourne's West

Yes. G Gill Electricals is a registered Australian company (ABN 90 698 538 171) with two fully SAA-accredited solar and battery installers on the team. We're locally owned and based in Melbourne's west — not a fly-by-night operator. Our Google reviews come from real local customers across Tarneit, Truganina, Point Cook and Werribee, and we back every install with a written workmanship warranty.

When you choose a solar installer, you're trusting them with your home and your investment. Our accreditation, registration, customer reviews and warranty backing mean you're dealing with a real, accountable team.

Because we don't inflate them. Any savings or rebate figure we give is an estimate based on your actual power bill and roof, not a best-case number designed to close a sale. After a free site assessment we give you real numbers for your home, itemised in writing. If solar doesn't stack up for your situation, we'll tell you that too.

Melbourne-west homes vary wildly in roof space, shading, power consumption and grid connection. A honest solar installer assesses your specific situation, not selling a standard package. That's how we work.

No hidden costs. Your quote is fixed and itemised — panels, inverter, labour, permits and any switchboard upgrade are all priced upfront. On older Melbourne-west homes a switchboard upgrade is sometimes needed for safe solar; if that applies to you, we identify it during the assessment and quote it before you sign, never after we've started.

We've seen too many customers surprised by extra costs mid-job. That's not how we operate. What you see in the quote is what you pay.

It depends on your goals, and we'll be straight with you. A battery makes sense if you want blackout backup, want to use more of your own solar in the evening, or charge an EV from your own power. If you're mainly chasing a lower bill and have a reliable grid connection, solar alone may be the smarter spend. We've installed batteries (including Fox ESS systems) across the western suburbs, so we can talk you through the real trade-offs for your home — not push the biggest system.

Battery payback is longer than solar, so we only recommend them when they actually make sense for your situation.

You'll never be left guessing. From quote to grid connection is typically 3-8 weeks, and we send progress updates by text or email at every stage — assessment, design, permits, install, inspection. You deal directly with the accredited installer doing your job, so there's no call centre and no chasing for answers.

We know the install process can feel confusing. That's why we keep you in the loop every step of the way.

We use advanced 3D modelling to assess your roof's shape, sunlight exposure, tilt and shading, so the system is tailored to your home for maximum performance. We combine that 3D shading data with over 10 years of local weather data to estimate how much energy your system will generate across a typical year. Every design is created by an SAA-accredited system designer to ensure accuracy, compliance and long-term reliability.

Our installer visits the property to finalise the system details. For solar, they check roof access, cable paths, switchboard condition, Wi-Fi signal and confirm the system design. For batteries, they plan safe placement and transport and check whether any extra safety measures are needed. If anything materially changes the quote, we update it and send it to you for approval before any work goes ahead.

Our accredited installer carries out safety checks and begins the installation. Your electricity will be off for about an hour during the work. Once installed, the system is tested, and in Victoria an inspector reviews it before activation; in other states it may be switched on right after testing. Please have pets secured, and Victorian customers should have their Solar Victoria QR code ready for scanning.

Every G Gill supplied and installed solar or battery system includes two warranties. Our installation warranty covers workmanship and installation-related issues for 10 years. The product warranty covers hardware such as panels, batteries and inverters, typically 10 to 25 years depending on the product. If you ever need to make a product warranty claim, our team manages it for you, so you only need to contact us and we handle the rest.

Our installers are accredited by Solar Accreditation Australia (SAA), the national body recognised by the Clean Energy Regulator for solar and battery design and installation. They hold valid, unrestricted electrical licences (and where required, electrical contractor or business licences) for the relevant state, and design and install every system in compliance with Australian Standards, obtaining any required building or planning permits. Our onboarding and regular quality checks mean every installation is safe, compliant and built to last.
