"We purchased an older home and the living room was without a ceiling fan. I also noticed some other electrical issues that weren't right so ultimately I hired Dwayne to remedy a number of issues. I took Dwayne around the property and we discussed what needed to be done. Project included a ceiling fan in the living room, an exhaust fan in the bathroom, reducing the load on circuit breakers to name a few. I also wanted an electrical panel in the garage for a 220 hookup. Dwayne discussed it all and made recommendations. Later that day he provided an estimate. I thought it seemed reasonable but had nothing to compare it to. Ultimately I feel I got my money's worth. Dwayne is a big guy and he had to go up in the attic to run wiring for the fans. My attic has blown in insulation and a very low roof line. He had very little room to maneuver and had to lay on his belly with his nose inches above the insulation, but he got to work done in record time. Everything went smoothly until the garage. Nothing about the garage wiring was correct. In the end Dwayne hat to run new wiring under concrete to get power to the garage which was fraught with complications and took a day and a half longer than anticipated. My bill remained the same as his estimated which is why I decided a got my money's worth. The only extra was a ice cold beer which he highly deserved. I would not hesitate to recommend Dwayne Olney to anyone wanting any type of electical done."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

In most cases, solar panels are covered by homeowners insurance because they are considered a permanently attached part of the home, and you may not need additional coverage. However, it is essential to read the fine print of your specific policy to understand the extent of the coverage, as some policies might only cover certain types of damage, such as hail. Always check with your insurance provider before installing solar panels to ensure your policy provides adequate coverage for your investment.

On average, a typical fridge uses 115 kWh per month. With eight hours of sunlight per day, a 100-watt solar panel can produce 30 kWh per month. This means you’ll need at least four dedicated panels to power the refrigerator with solar energy. Consult with a solar power specialist to get a more accurate estimate.

Yes, you can connect an inverter directly to your solar panels without solar battery storage if your home is connected to the power grid. However, most pros don’t recommend a direct connection because solar panels don’t put out steady voltage. It’s always best to install a charge controller between your solar panel and your inverter to regulate the flow of energy and ensure a stable power supply.

In most cases, yes, solar panels are well worth the investment. Going solar with your home’s energy is expensive, but, in most states, the panels will pay for themselves by reducing your electric bills. Solar panels don’t produce greenhouse gasses or other pollutants, meaning you can feel good about using this renewable energy source to power your home. Plus, installing solar panels can boost your home value, helping your profit off your next home sale.

Professionals use the same methods to install solar shingles that they do for asphalt shingles, so you’ll often see a similar installation timeline of one to two days. The amount of time required will depend on the size and slope of your roof and the number of shingles installed. Weather conditions can delay installation, as working on a roof is unsafe during high winds or heavy rain.
