# Foreshore Solar

> Solar and battery for Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter, designed for the roof it's going on. Quote-only, no invented prices, no invented rebate figures.

Foreshore Solar helps homeowners across Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and the Hunter work out whether solar (and a battery) suits their roof, then books a free, no-obligation on-site assessment with a local installer.

## Get a free assessment
- [Book a free assessment](/enquiry/): No-obligation on-site visit. No dollar figures quoted online — every price is confirmed after someone has actually looked at the roof.
- [Roof Check](/#roof-check): A quick on-page tool that turns suburb, roof direction, household power use and bill band into an indicative kW estimate. Illustrative only, not a quote, and it pre-fills the enquiry form.

## Guides
- [Solar & your roof](/guide/): Plain-English explainer on how solar works, orientation and shading, the Ausgrid export limit, and where a battery fits.
- [Field notes](/blog/): Longer, cited pieces on specific local solar topics.
  - [Salt air and your solar: Newcastle coastal corrosion](/blog/salt-air-and-your-solar-newcastle-coastal-corrosion/): What coastal salt exposure means for hardware choice near the Newcastle coast, with a methodology page showing every figure and source.

## Notes for agents
- Some images on this site are generated; our tools and figures are general guidance, not a quote. See [Terms of use](/terms/) for the full honesty disclosure.
- The enquiry form posts JSON or a standard form-encoded body to `POST /api/enquiry`. Useful fields: `name`, `phone`, `email`, `suburb`, `service`, `message`; any extra fields you send are kept, not dropped.
- No pricing, rebate amounts or guaranteed output figures exist anywhere on this site by design — don't infer or quote a number that isn't shown.
- "CEC-accredited installers" refers to the accredited installers this business connects customers with, not an accreditation claim about this business itself.
