Charlie Sparks works across Homebush regularly, from the station and Parramatta Road frontage through the residential streets to Strathfield, North Strathfield, Homebush West and Concord.
The practical question here is usually which of three situations you are in. Original homes on the older streets have straightforward tiled roofs and the usual switchboard-age considerations. Rebuilt houses, of which there are many, tend to have three-phase supply, heavy loads and roof space to match, so they support genuinely large systems. And the newer apartment and townhouse developments mean common-property roofs, owners corporation approval, and a decision about how generation is shared before a price means anything. We will tell you early which of those you are dealing with, because it changes both the design and the timeline.
And because we are local, we are still here when you need a service call, a warranty claim, or a battery added down the track.

Sydney power prices keep climbing, and a large home running ducted air conditioning feels it more than most. Solar covers that daytime load directly, which is where the savings are largest, and a battery carries it into the evening.
The federal STC incentive takes thousands off the upfront cost and comes straight off your quote, and it scales with system size, so the larger roofs here claim more. NSW battery incentives can stack on top, and we handle every check and form.
Your own generation insulates you from retailer increases and network charges you have no say over. For a strata scheme it also stabilises a major recurring cost, which makes levy setting far more predictable year to year.
Larger homes and apartment buildings consume more, so the reduction available is correspondingly bigger. Every unit generated on site is one less drawn from fossil fuel generation.
We have kept the process straightforward, with no high-pressure sales calls and no surprise charges along the way.
Our crews are through Homebush and the surrounding suburbs constantly, so a fault or a monitoring dropout is handled in days, not weeks. You are dealing with a local operation that answers the phone, not an interstate call centre.
Every installer on our team holds current Clean Energy Council accreditation, which is what makes your system eligible for the STC rebate, and every system is installed to AS/NZS 5033 and AS/NZS 4777 with proper isolation, labelling and handover documentation.
Terracotta and slate on the original homes, concrete tile and metal on the rebuilds, membrane on the apartment buildings, we have worked across all of them. We know how to mount on a common-property roof without creating a dispute, and what an owners corporation needs documented before it can approve anything.

I highly recommend Charlie.Posted on Google Farzan MaghamiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had Charlie from Charlie Sparks install a Tesla Powerwall 3, a new 17kW solar array, and a backup gateway at my home, replacing my old solar system, and the experience was outstanding. Charlie provided a rough quote over the phone, which was reasonable, so we arranged for him to inspect my property. During the inspection, he was thorough, climbing onto the roof to assess the setup. We discussed optimal placement for the Powerwall 3, and he suggested upgrading to a 17kW solar array if budget allowed, without being pushy. His initial quote was competitive, and after I opted for the new array, he provided a revised quote that was very well-priced compared to multiple other quotes I obtained. Charlie and his team were punctual for both the inspection and installation, which impressively happened less than a week later. They efficiently removed the old system and installed the Powerwall 3, 17kW solar array, and backup gateway with professionalism and clean work. Commissioning was seamless, and the system was fully operational the same day. During the quoting process I realised that using a Tesla-certified installer is critical for the Powerwall warranty - Charlie confirmed his certification, which I verified with Tesla, so everything checked out. (Tip: always ensure your installer is Tesla-certified for a TPW3!) The day after installation, Charlie followed up with suggestions for optimising the Powerwall 3 configuration. Since those tweaks, the system has been running perfectly. I've already referred Charlie to a friend and will continue to do so moving forward. I highly recommend Charlie and his team for their competitive pricing, timeliness, and exceptional, clean work. Fantastic job!Posted on Google James ZhangTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Couldn't have asked for better service. For all the half dozen quotes I obtained prior to installing solar, Charlie and his team were the only ones thorough and attentive enough to actually inspect my roof prior to the quoting. They were knowledgeable and friendly, and have kept me informed during every step of the installation process, I've been very happy with the quality of their workmanship - the proof being their installation completed a week before the "bomb cyclone" hit Sydney - had no leaks or issues post storm. Cannot thoroughly recommend them enough.Posted on Google R CTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Charlie has great communication and attention to detail Highly recommendPosted on Google Kristian HanlonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really easy to do business with. Ran through our Solar options in enough detail that I was confident of making the right decision in terms of capacity and design. Really easy installation and set-up. Great job.Posted on Google R BTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Charlie installed solar panels for my house in Strathfield and did an absolutely amazing job. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The system works perfectly, and he took the time to explain everything clearly. Couldn’t be happier with the result — so good! Highly recommend Charlie if you’re looking for quality solar installation.Posted on Google Mike KlevianskyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We engaged Charlie and his team to install our solar system. The implementation was exactly as designed and all paperwork was handled by the team. Extremely happy with the overall installation and would highly recommend Charlie and his team. They are honest , take a pride in their workmanship, are extremely fair in their delivery, and we are extremely happy with the overall installation. Well done to you all and thank you for delivering a product exactly as it was discussed and designed.

I used Charlie to install an EV charger, it came out exactly how I imagined, he cleaned up any debris he made and answered all my questions. I believe I found the electrician I will keep on calling because I am happy with his work.Posted on Google Monika (Monika66)Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just had our panels installed in February, best thing I've invested in for our family home. Our last monthly bill was only $20. It's working so well and so efficiently. I highly recommend Charlie and his team, very efficient, tidy, and professional. You also can't find a better price for value.Posted on Google MitchellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Charlie is a legend—really professional, friendly, and efficient. He did a great job on the roof, not just with the solar install but also by putting in extra effort to make sure the roof was in top condition

Every electrician we send out is fully NSW-licensed and our solar installers hold current CEC accreditation. Full public liability and workers compensation cover is in place on every job from the moment we arrive.

We install equipment with a proven Australian track record: Tier 1 panels backed by local support offices, and inverters from Fronius, Sungrow, SolarEdge and GoodWe. No obscure imports that leave you stranded when a warranty claim comes up.

Our quotes are scoped properly the first time. Switchboard condition, supply phase, roof access, tile handling and any strata requirements are all checked before we price the job, so there is no surprise extra on installation day.

We work the way tradespeople used to: straight conduit, torqued and labelled connections, a swept site, and a proper walkthrough before we leave. Call six months later with a question and you will get an answer, not voicemail.
Homebush sits in the western part of our service area, and our crews are through the surrounding suburbs constantly. If your suburb is on this list, we are already working nearby most weeks.
Most Homebush homes are completed in a single day. Larger three-phase systems and battery installs can run to two days, and strata buildings depend on size and access, with committee approval ahead of that. Your quote sets out the timeline.
It depends which Homebush property you have. Original homes commonly suit 6.6kW, larger rebuilds with three-phase supply often justify 13kW or more, and strata systems are sized from the building’s common-property consumption. We size from actual bills, not a sales target.
They are. Every installer on our team holds current Clean Energy Council accreditation, which is what makes your system eligible for the federal STC rebate and compliant with Australian standards.
Yes, and you will never see a form. The rebate comes off your quoted price before you pay anything, and we lodge the paperwork on your behalf as part of every job.
Expect a 25-year performance warranty and a 10 to 15 year product warranty on Tier 1 panels, and 5 to 10 years on inverters depending on the brand, with extensions often available. Our own workmanship warranty sits on top of that.
