TESTIMONIALS

Real Townsville Bay locals, real reviews

We installed an EV Charger, a couple of month ago. The complete experience was really good. From the site inspection to the installation, everything went smooth, without any hiccup and on time.
Three months after the installation, there was a minor technical issue, and a prompt service was only one phone call away.
A service as it should be. Definitely an excellent recommendation.

Excellent service from the whole team. Well mannered and very professional from start to finish. I do not hesitate to recommend this company for any electrical or solar work.

Ross G. -

Really impressive electrician. Didn't try and sell me anything, even though my system is at that point where it really needs replacing. He just made suggestions about price v quality, explained the likely lifespan of any new system and then left me to make a decision with zero pressure to buy from O'Brien's. Guess what....I'll be using O'Brien's if for nothing else than the complete lack of pressure.

MJ J. -

Had a great experience with our solar installation! The installers were fantastic—professional, friendly, and efficient. Communication was clear and consistent from start to finish, and everything was left neat and tidy. Installers provided a thorough run down of the system after the install was completed. Highly recommend!

10 out of 10!! Excellent company to have install our Solar. They provided a large team who worked really well together, each knowing their role to play. I couldn’t fault their professionalism and workmanship, This was a great experience from Day 1, with individualised explanation of how the solar rebates work. Thanks O’brien Electrical and Solar, you guys rock!
