Are you opening your power bill with one eye, worrying about what that bottom number will look like?
If so, you’re not alone. Many families are reducing their usage to manage the increasing cost of powering their homes. What does that mean for you? Perhaps your family shivers a little more in winter, hesitates before turning on the aircon in summer, or even lets the pool stay dirty for longer. The result? A noticeable dip in your quality of life.
But what if we told you it doesn’t have to be this way?
What if you could actually lower your power bill without sacrificing any comfort? Better yet, what if you could help create a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable future for us all? You can do this with Solar Power, which allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds—affordable, sun-powered energy and uncompromised comfort for your family.
All while saving you money – lots of it!

Read some of what our past clients have to say about working with Bluegum Electrical.
"They Listened To What We Wanted!"
“They listened to what we wanted! We’d received quotes before, but none were tailored to us. We were conscious when cooking and hesitated to use the heater. Now, I no longer chase my wife around to turn the lights off, and we run the heater whenever we want.”

"The Team Has Been Nothing Short Of Superb"
“I loved the expert knowledge and service! From the moment I picked up the phone to the completion of our solar installation (and other electrical needs) the team has been nothing short of superb. I loved the customer service. I was kept informed every step of the way”

"Everything They Did Screamed Quality"
“Everything they did screamed quality! They used solar panels, which were NOT made in China. And Austrian-made inverters. I’m a former cabling and comms regulatory executive (retired), and I could tell that they knew their stuff. I’m extremely pleased with Bluegum Electrical Solutions”

Bluegum’s not for everyone. If we’re not the right fit for you, all good. Your consultation is completely FREE, and there’s no obligation. You can take the valuable information we give you after the consult, and we can part as friends!
Bluegum is different. Our first goal is to help you find the right solar, and then you can choose who you get to install it. Hopefully, that’s us!
At Bluegum, we only recommend products we would put on our own homes and we’re a picky bunch so you can be confident you have quality products.
Being local, we know what works for our area and how to make the most of the sun to keep you powered even when its winter and there isn't as much sunlight per day.
How much MONEY are you sending to power companies for the energy you could have harnessed yourself from the sun? (We find most families slash their bills between 50 - 80%, some even get money back!)
How many TIMES have you felt the need to adjust your home's temperature, only to hesitate, wondering what that comfort might cost you
How much TIME are you wasting avoiding using power-hungry appliances like the dryer or dishwasher due to fear of skyrocketing power bills?
When you do “the math”, this can equal thousands of dollars a year!
Solar pays for itself. So we want you to have quality products that will preform well even on the bad days and last.
We install your solar the same way we would on our own home, with the highest attention to detail and quality.
We listen and work with you to find the RIGHT solution for your expectations, home and usage. Everyone is different.
