Jim and Dan, both born and bred in Ballarat, have deep roots in the community and an unwavering commitment to provide top-notch service. “Too many solar companies focus on pushing sales, rather than genuinely helping customers,” says Jim. “I’ve worked for years as a solar installer, and very often the salesperson, who has never been on a roof in their life, makes absurd promises and unrealistic expectations just to get their commission. We don’t want headaches in the future, so we provide honest advice.”
Putting Honesty First
At AES, the focus is on giving customers realistic and transparent advice about solar systems. “We believe in educating our clients,” explains Dan. “Every property is different, and not everyone benefits from the same system. Our job is to guide them toward what works best for their situation, not just sell them the most expensive option. More often than not, we have to talk people out of getting a battery, as they simply don’t need it.”
This approach has earned them a stellar reputation across the state, where AES has been recognised as the best solar company in Melbourne.
From initial consultations to post-installation support, the team is dedicated to ensuring that every customer understands their system’s capabilities and potential savings. AES’s upfront, no-nonsense style has been a breath of fresh air for customers tired of exaggerated claims and high-pressure sales tactics.
Solar Expertise Backed by Experience
With over three decades of combined electrical experience, Jim and Dan bring unparalleled expertise to every project. “Being sparkies for so long has taught us the importance of quality workmanship,” says Jim. “We treat every job like we’re working on our own homes.”
This dedication to excellence extends to their choice of products. AES only uses trusted, high-performance solar panels and inverters designed for efficiency, and for the best return on your investment. “Unless a customer wants something specific, we recommend the same products that we’d use on our mothers, or our own home” Dan emphasises.
