Solar, DB board upgrades and certificates of compliance for Fourways homes, estates and businesses.
Fourways is one of the most estate-dense parts of northern Johannesburg, and that changes how a solar installation actually gets done.
If you live in Cedar Lakes, Dainfern Ridge or Fourways Gardens, your solar installation doesn't start with the electrician, it starts with the HOA. Most of these estates have architectural or aesthetics committees that need to sign off on panel placement, inverter positioning and even the colour of visible conduit before any work begins. We've been through this process often enough in Fourways to know what each committee typically wants to see: roof-plane diagrams, panel layout that stays below the roofline where possible, and battery/inverter enclosures screened from the street.
We prepare the submission pack for you rather than leaving you to figure out estate paperwork on your own. That includes a site plan, product spec sheets, and where needed, a written motivation for panel visibility. It typically adds a week or two to the timeline versus a freestanding property outside an estate, so we build that into the quote upfront rather than surprising you halfway through.
Beyond the estates, Fourways has grown into a genuine commercial node. The area around Fourways Mall, Leaping Frog Centre and the Monte Casino precinct carries a lot of small business and retail load, and we do commercial electrical work and solar for shops, offices and restaurants in that corridor, not just homes. Commercial jobs come with their own compliance requirements, particularly around three-phase supply and load calculations for larger inverter setups.
New developments are also a constant in Fourways. If you've bought into a new-build estate or a recently completed cluster development, you'll need a full electrical certificate of compliance before transfer or before the municipality will connect supply. We handle new-build wiring inspections and COC issuing for developers and individual buyers across the Fourways area, and we know which developments tend to have recurring snags from the original electrical contractor.
Fourways properties tend to be larger than in central Sandton, with bigger roof areas and higher household consumption to match.
Estate and freestanding homes in Fourways commonly have the roof space to support 16-24 panel arrays, which is why 8-12kW inverter systems are the most common configuration we quote here.
Bigger gardens mean pool pumps, borehole pumps and irrigation systems drawing power around the clock. We size battery backup to keep these running through outages, not just lights and Wi-Fi.
Many Fourways homes split circuits across two distribution boards. We account for this in solar wiring and in COC inspections, since it affects earthing and circuit labelling requirements.
Solar, general electrical work and compliance certificates, all covered by one team. See full service details on the main site.
Solar & backup power: panel and inverter installation sized for estate and freestanding homes, battery backup, and generator changeover switches for properties that already run a generator through load shedding.
General electrical: DB board upgrades, fault finding, geyser and stove circuits, outdoor and pool area wiring, and rewiring for older sections of estate homes.
Certificate of compliance: we issue an electrical certificate of compliance for property sales, new solar installations, and insurance requirements across Fourways, Cedar Lakes, Dainfern Ridge and Fourways Gardens.
