Our Services
Solar is our specialty, but we cover everything that keeps your property powered.
Whether you're installing solar for the first time, expanding an existing system, dealing with an inverter fault, or just need reliable electrical work done properly, we handle it. Every service is delivered to the same standard, with the same rigour.
Solar Panel Installation
Installing a solar system is one of the most significant upgrades you can make to your property, and it has to be done right. We design and install complete rooftop solar systems for Cape Town homes and businesses, from single-phase residential setups to larger commercial arrays.
Every installation starts with a proper site assessment. We look at your roof orientation, available shading-free space, structural load capacity, and current energy consumption before recommending anything. The system we design is built for your specific property, not a package off a price list.
We supply, install, and commission the full system, and we're there for you after installation too.
What's included
- Site assessment and custom system design
- Supply of solar panels, inverter, and mounting hardware
- Professional installation by certified electricians
- All electrical wiring and connections
- Electrical compliance certificate (CoC)
- System commissioning and testing
- Client handover and usage training
- Post-installation support
System Upgrades & Expansion
Many Cape Town homeowners already have solar but find their system isn't keeping up, either because it was undersized from the start or because energy needs have changed. We assess existing systems carefully and only recommend upgrades that will make a real difference.
We won't upsell you on capacity you don't need. If your system just needs a configuration adjustment, we'll say so. If it needs a meaningful upgrade to meet your goals, we'll explain exactly why and show you the numbers before you commit.
Why it matters: A well-designed upgrade can dramatically improve what you get from your existing investment: more coverage during load shedding, better off-grid capability, or a more reliable system overall.
What we can upgrade
- Panel capacity: adding more panels to increase generation
- Battery storage: adding or expanding battery banks
- Inverter replacement or upgrade
- System monitoring and optimisation
- Wiring, switchgear, and DB board improvements
- Converting from grid-tied to hybrid or off-grid
Power Inverter Services
The inverter is the heart of your solar system. It converts the DC power your panels generate into the AC power your home or business runs on. When it fails, your system stops working. We supply, install, fault-find, and repair inverters across all major brands used in South Africa.
Whether your inverter is tripping under load, throwing error codes, simply not performing the way it should, or you need a new one installed, we can diagnose the problem and get you back up and running with minimal disruption.

Off-Grid Solutions
For homes and businesses that want true energy independence, we design and install complete off-grid systems. These sever the connection to Eskom entirely, or reduce it to near zero. This is more than adding panels. It requires careful system design, correctly sized battery storage, the right inverter/charger combination, and planning for extended cloudy periods and high-demand days.
We design every off-grid system from scratch, based on your actual energy profile: what you use, when you use it, and what you're not willing to go without. The result is a system built to handle real Cape Town conditions, not just ideal-case scenarios.
Since Muktech installed our system, we've been running at 99% off-grid. No more load shedding interruptions — the house just keeps going.

Electrical Work
Our electrical work covers the full range of general electrical installations and repairs, carried out to the same standard we apply to all our solar work. We're certified electricians, not just solar installers, which means we can handle whatever your property needs.
There's no split standard here. A DB board upgrade gets the same care and attention as a full solar installation. We work neatly, we do it right, and we issue a certificate of compliance on completion.
If you need electrical work done alongside a solar installation, or just as a standalone job, we're the same team. Same quality, same accountability.
Services include
- Distribution board (DB) upgrades and repairs
- Electrical fault finding and repairs
- Certificate of Compliance (COC) issuing
- Geyser installations and replacements
- Pre-purchase electrical inspections
- General residential and commercial electrical work
