"the completed job looks great totally satisfied with the end result! but just one minor complaint and as far as contractors go this is minor. when i was given the quote the guy who gave the quote was not 100% sure the size and color of materials needed was in stock at the supply house and supply house was closed that day so he could not call and ask but he said he thought they would be in stock. ended up not being in stock and they had trouble getting the materials. no one called to inform me of this situation a simple voicemail would have been nice i had to call them after the given timeline for install had passed. lucky we had an unusually warm winter so far with no snow or i would have been waiting till spring. they did a great job on the install looks great. but i had to ding them on responsiveness for not picking up a phone when the materials thing went squirrely. they were not the cheapest quote i got but they are a local company been around a long time and offered a 10 year warranty and I have no doubt they will still be around in 10 years if i need it."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

Solar shingles last between 20 and 30 years, which is about as long as solar panels and standard asphalt shingles last. Their exact life span depends on the manufacturer and the quality of installation. You can increase the longevity of your solar shingles by conducting regular inspections and maintenance and making any necessary repairs as quickly as possible.

Solar panels can pay for themselves in five to 15 years, depending on the cost of your system, how much energy it generates, whether you qualify for incentives or power buybacks, and the price of energy in your area. Solar panels pay for themselves over time as they lower electricity bills, so it will take time to recoup your initial investment. However, the longer you have your system, the more money you can save and earn.

No, you cannot turn on a new solar system before inspection. The inspector checks that the system is correctly connected to the grid and that safety components and features are in place. This process prevents problems on the electrical grid and offers protection against fire in your home. 

Your local utility company may also require inspection documentation before you can connect to the grid. An inspection can ensure solar power efficiency and determine how you might increase it.

Removing solar panels can be straightforward, but it’s not necessarily a simple process. Your contractor needs to prevent damage—not only to your panels but also to your roof and electrical system. Many systems are wired into the main electrical grid, and you’ll need to hire a licensed electrician to disconnect it.

You shouldn’t hook up a solar panel directly to a battery. That can damage the solar battery and your appliances over time. Instead, install a charge controller between your solar panel and solar battery. Charge controllers regulate voltage, prevent overcharging, and minimize the amount of electrical current to protect your battery from voltage spikes.
