Our story
Why Solar Care?
Our business began in exterior cleaning and maintenance, where we developed an understanding of the unique conditions created by different surfaces and microclimates within our service area. Through this experience, we came to understand that no solar system is the same, with every installation affected by variables such as humidity, roof pitch, surrounding tree species, salt air, dust, and overall system design.
Our aim is to use that experience to provide honest, quality service that helps keep solar systems performing at their best, while empowering people through education about their energy system.
While the solar industry is heavily focused on the installation and sale of new solar systems and emerging technology, the systems already installed across Australia remain in operation for decades. We have experienced first-hand the lack of awareness around solar system maintenance. The industry narrative of “set and forget” has led many people to believe their systems require little to no ongoing attention, despite being exposed to harsh Australian conditions year after year.
Australia is now one of the world leaders in rooftop solar adoption, with more than 4 million homes and businesses already running solar systems nationwide. Rooftop solar now contributes a significant share of Australia’s daytime electricity generation, and the number of installed systems continues to grow every year.
That is exactly why services like Solar Care are becoming increasingly important. Our goal is to help homeowners and businesses maintain system performance, identify issues early, and protect the long-term value, reliability, and safety of their solar investment through honest, professional maintenance and inspections.
