Three steps to free power

We handle the hard part — finding, comparing and vetting solar installers so you don't have to.

📋

Tell us about your home

Fill in our quick questionnaire — your address, power bill, roof type and what you're looking for. No obligation, no sales calls. Just the info we need to match you perfectly.

02

We find your best match

We send your job to our network of vetted local solar installers. They compete for your business on the same specification — driving down your price without compromising quality.

03
☀️

Compare, choose & save

Review three clear comparable quotes side by side. Pick your installer with confidence and start generating free power from the Southern Lakes sunshine.

Why Solvy

Every installer is licensed, insured, and reviewed by real homeowners. No cowboys, ever.

⚖️

Truly comparable quotes

Every installer quotes the exact same specification. Honest, clear comparison every time.

🛡️

Legal

Terms & Conditions

1. About Solvy

Solvy NZ ("Solvy", "we", "us") operates the solvy.co.nz website and provides an independent solar marketplace service connecting homeowners ("Customers") with vetted solar installation companies ("Installers"). By submitting an enquiry through our website you agree to these Terms of Service.

2. Our Service

Solvy is an independent marketplace. We are not a solar installation company and do not perform physical installation work. Our service includes:

  • Receiving and processing your solar quote request
  • Matching your requirements with suitable vetted Installers
  • Coordinating comparable quotes from multiple Installers
  • Presenting quotes in a clear, comparable format
  • Facilitating communication between you and your chosen Installer
  • Coordinating optional post-installation quality inspections

3. Free Service for Customers

Solvy's service is completely free for homeowners. We are funded by Installers in our network who pay fees to access qualified leads. You will never be charged for receiving quotes through Solvy.

4. Installation Contract

The legal contract for solar installation work is between you and your chosen Installer directly. Solvy facilitates the introduction and quoting process but is not a party to the installation contract. You should review all quotes carefully and satisfy yourself as to the terms before proceeding.

5. Installer Vetting

All Installers in the Solvy network are vetted to confirm they hold:

  • Current public liability insurance of no less than $2,000,000
  • All relevant NZ electrical certifications and licensing
  • A minimum workmanship warranty of 2 years on all installations

While we take reasonable steps to vet Installers, Solvy cannot guarantee the quality of physical installation work and accepts no liability for workmanship defects. Installers carry their own warranties and public liability insurance.

6. Payments

Where Solvy collects payment on behalf of a transaction:

  • A deposit of no more than 20% of the total job value is payable upon booking confirmation
  • The remaining balance is payable upon satisfactory completion of installation
  • Solvy reserves the right to withhold final payment to an Installer where there is a legitimate unresolved customer complaint

7. Cancellation

You may cancel your quote request at any time before confirming an Installer at no cost. Where a deposit has been paid and you cancel after an Installer has been confirmed, cancellation terms are governed by the installation contract between you and the Installer.

8. Quality Assurance

An optional independent post-installation inspection is available at a fee of $299 (incl. GST) for Solvy customers. This inspection is conducted by an independent licensed electrician and covers workmanship quality against NZ standards and manufacturer specifications. Solvy's liability in respect of any quality inspection report is limited to $500.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by NZ law, Solvy's total liability for any claim arising from use of our service is limited to $500. Nothing in these terms affects your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or the Fair Trading Act 1986.

10. Disputes

In the first instance, please contact Solvy at hello@solvy.co.nz to raise any concerns. Where a dispute cannot be resolved, disputes may be referred to the Disputes Tribunal of New Zealand.

11. Changes to Terms

Solvy reserves the right to update these terms at any time. Continued use of our service after notification of changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

12. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand. Last updated: May 2026.
