From our customers
Reviews & Completed Work
"Excellent service and actually went out of their way. Installers actually took off caps that had not been removed from roof vents when my house was built 9 years ago. Even cleaned out my gutters. Highly recommend this company for excellent customer service."
"We had our solar electric system installed last April. Kristi was very professional, friendly and answered all of our questions. The install crew was conscientious, efficient and very friendly. We are very happy with their follow up and with our system as a whole."
"I would recommend Troy and his company any day of the week. He made the process very easy and was responsive to any questions or calls. Even after the final paperwork was signed I could still call Troy with questions. I am very happy with the quality of the installation and even more so with my new electric bills."
