Avoid SAE Tweed/Kingscliff at all costs. SAE installed reverse cycle air-conditioning units throughout my house. They used brackets that rusted shortly after leaving rust stains running down the walls... See more

The Team from SAE were prompt and efficient and easy to deal with. They telephoned to ensure that everything through the installation was running smoothly to provide updates.

Our whole experience with SAE to have our solar panels installed was wonderful. Mark provided us with expert, honest advice about our solar needs for the most reasonable price around. Catriona and Daryelle arranged all aspects of the installation for us at a time that suited us and Luke and team installed the panels in a matter of hours and didn’t leave til they checked it was all working! After sales service has been great too with SAE following up and ensuring our connection has been recognised by our electricity supplier. Couldn’t be happier and the panels look great too- thanks so much!

Efficient, professional and polite from receptionist, sales rep and installer. Shown great patience and knowledge when a solar newbie like me asked way too many questions.

Have been trying for months for them to finalize a quote for me - just because it is different to what they are used to - which means they seem to be only salesman and NOT TRUE SOLAR INSTALLERS !!
Keep getting messages - will get back to you in a few days, Matt is out of the office and will get back to you, we have all the info we need so will finalize the quote - still one month later NOTHING !!!

We had a great experience with SAE from the initial quote right through to handover of the system.
All of the team were professional, courteous and explained everything to us.
We are hoping to eventually buy a battery down the track and will be using SAE for this also.
Highly recommend.

SAE exceeded our expectations. Every contact we had with them was professional, helpful and delivered in a timely manner. They welcomed and dealt with all our queries to our satisfaction, from obtaining the initial quote to installation. Nothing was too much trouble. Office staff and contract installer were a pleasure to deal with.

I had solar panels installed in my house with SAE Group and the experience was great.
All my interactions with the company have been good, from the salesperson, support, financial and installation. The information given to me was clear and ultimately they delivered on what it was presented to me by the salesperson.

Just had SAE install a Tesla battery for us to accompany our 2 year old solar panel system. Damien was amazing from the very start- all my questions answered in layman’s terms & different options explained until I had a firm understanding. Updates on installation process were constant by the team which was appreciated The installers, Tim & Harry were fantastic. Tidy, efficient, and again happy to spend time walking me through it. I couldn’t be happier with my experience with SAE & highly recommend them to anyone going down the solar road.

SAE recently installed our 8.8kw solar system (24 panels) with a 6kw inverter and a12.6kw battery. SAE provided the best of 3 quotes for the job and were helpful throughout the process of deciding what system we wanted. After ordering they appointed a liaison person which made follow up easy and quick. The installation team were great. Installation was 9 weeks after deposit was paid (we were expecting 5-6 weeks) but this delay is understandable given supply chain shortages and the constant wet weather in recent times.
We started out with very little knowledge of solar and were unsure about what system to install and who to use. We are pleased we chose SAE.

Great experience from SAE for installing my 6.6KW Sungrow Hybrid inverter system with Sunpower panels, Damian McMahon helped me to choose the right system for me and he followed up from start to finish. The quality of the materials used, installation and workmanship of the electricians are highly commendable. Overall, great value for money compared to cheap solar players in the industry.

This is the third time that I have done business with SAE Group - solar panels, A/C and now the Tesla Powerwall. They are a great company to deal with, always polite, professional and efficient. The installers were excellent, as always.

From the first phone call to the follow up call after installation SAE Group's service was excellent. They kept in constant contact and kept me up to date with what was happening with each step. They explained it at a level I could understand as I am not overly tech minded. The customer service was first rate and the staff whom I spoke to were very polite and helpful. The installation team were on site for two days and very friendly, professional and got the job done without any fuss or problems. Cleaned up afterwards the whole experience was very pleasant. Would recommend them to anyone who wishes to have solar put on the resident.

I would like to be able to give 10 stars, but 5 is the limit. Everything was above my expectations.
Exactly what I expected from a professional well established solar company. Quote process was simple, installation was within 2 weeks and accompanied by a professional job. My experience with this company was terrific.

Reply from SAE Group
From sales (John) to installation and following up circuitry for the backup (Corey and Matt) the whole process was efficient and professional with market leading value.
We installed the best 13.2KW Sunpower panels and Sungrow Hybrid Inverter for blackout protection and seamless battery integration down the track.
Give John a call and you won’t be disappointed.

We can't recommend SAE Solar highly enough! Our experience from start to finish was surprisingly smooth .... exceptional customer service from every member of the team who kept us fully informed throughout particularly when the install was interrupted midway due to the recent flooding which was very much appreciated. Really professional company to deal with!

We recently had SAE Group install solar, ducted air conditioning and replaced an existing split system. From the quoting through to delivery, their service was brilliant. The quotes were competitive, the staff kept us informed through the entire process and the installers were friendly, polite and efficient. A great experience all around!
