SolarGrid Perth

Solar Grid builds loyalty through direct, personal service. Multiple reviewers name Liz and Tony as owners who stay involved, staff like Freddie and Jordan by role, and consistently deliver clear explanations of financing, rebates, and product choices. The app for live solar monitoring and prompt follow-up after install (checking in after two months, fixing issues quickly) stand out. One missed appointment and a last-minute reschedule mark a rare scar on an otherwise reliable track record. The business handles complex jobs: system upgrades, battery retrofits, panel relocation for renovations, and pool solar integration. Reviewers felt genuinely heard on cost concerns and specific needs rather than upsold. Staff cleaned sites, disposed of old equipment, and explained future upgrade paths. The consistency of praise across admin, quoting, installation, and aftercare suggests a team culture that extends beyond one or two standouts.

Green Engineering Pty Ltd

1.0(4)

All four Google reviews are one-star, spanning nine years. Customers report being unable to contact the company after purchase, warranty claims ignored despite 25-year guarantees on panels, court orders left unexecuted, illegal installation work, deposits retained without refund or service, price increases imposed mid-contract, and faulty equipment installed without disclosure. Evidence of court involvement and Consumer Protection intervention is substantial and consistent.

Alinta Energy

2.1(225)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Alinta Energy operates as a residential energy provider across multiple states; review evidence on solar services is absent. The 2.1-star rating (225 reviews) reflects severe frustration. Multiple customers report a completely broken online login system where reset codes and links fail to arrive, leaving accounts locked indefinitely. Payment and disconnection handling has caused real hardship: gas cut off mid-winter with no warning, families with children left without heat or cooking capability, and reconnection delayed or refused despite vulnerability. Call centre staff occasionally go above and beyond, yet systematic failures in account management, billing transparency, and state-specific support overwhelm these bright spots. WA customers face repeated barriers: app exclusion, account number format mismatches, forced transfers to East Coast teams, and service denials in areas where Alinta claims to operate. Misleading sign-up offers (removals deals that never materialise, hidden fees), weak follow-up on critical issues, and dismissive responses to safety concerns compound the distrust. Reviewers consistently name rivals like Kleenheat as faster to switch to.
