Shockingly bad workmanship SAE solar in...

Review left 10 years after system installed

Shockingly bad workmanship SAE solar installers left holes in my roof caused roofleak

Response from SAE Group

Thank you for your feedback. We take concerns like this very seriously. As your system was installed 3 years prior to any notification of a roof leak, an inspection will be necessary. We have offered to inspect the issue on-site, provided you accept our site terms. Alternatively, we are happy to review a report from a licensed roofer. Until we receive one of these, we regret that we cannot take further action.

Excellent sales process, customer service could have been better

Review left 7 years after system installed

Sales process was easy and installers were punctual, polite, explained everything and cleaned up before they left the premises. However, took nearly 6 months to convinces SAE in 2020 that something wasn't right and eventually the whole system was replaced in February 2021 at no coat to ourselves.

Response from SAE Group

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you found the sales process smooth and appreciated our team's professionalism. We apologize for the delay in resolving the issue but are happy we could replace your system at no cost. Your patience means a lot, and we’ll use your experience to improve. If you need further assistance, feel free to reach out!

System out put great until it started decreasing significantly within 3.5 years. SAE claimed there were no issues however eventually checked the system in October 202 and replaced entire system in February 2021 at no cost to ourselves. Current panels are operating as expected and lot more reliable than former panels.

No issues with the inverter and excellent data available to monitor the system output - how I managed to clearly see we had an issue in 2020.

Review left 3 years after system installed

Took longer than anticipated to install. Original discussions suggested about 6 weeks but actual was much longer. However Covid and border closures were still in effect. Installation was smooth and done efficiently and tidily. Minor mishap due to installers going to extra lengths to conceal piping and wiring which was easily rectified and end result is excellent. Haven't had the need to contact them since.

Response from SAE Group

Review left 6 years after system installed

Installation was no issue, only issue was trying to convince SAE that I had a problem 2.5 years later and it took approx 9 months for SAE to agree that an issue existed - resulting in entire system being replaced.

3 panels had to be replaced after one year and then the entire system (22 panels) had to be replaced in January 2021.

The sales process was honest and informed and the system we chose in the end was good value for good qualify. The installers were second to none. They were really knowledgeable and worked hard to meet my requirements and also to keep the install as aesthetically pleasing as possible. A+

No subcontracting, multiple options to suit our needs. Honest advice for future expansion (batteries).
