"My furnace went out on a Sunday and Service Today made it there in a matter of a few hours. Steven has to come back with a part the next day and got it running great! I was away during the “polar vortex” and when I came home my house was warm and cozy!!!"

"When I turned the water on to an outside faucet on Memorial Day, I discovered that the pipe had burst over the winter, causing a small flood in a wood-paneled room in my basement. I called Randy Lane & Sons the next day and they were able to get someone out that week. They called ahead to let me know they were on the way, then arrived promptly. We reviewed the miscellaneous plumbing issues (things I wasn't going to have someone come out and look at by themselves, but since they were there), then Ron got started on pulling paneling off the wall to get at the burst pipe, while his assistant worked on the bathroom sink drain. Everything on the list was completed, and the price was lower than I thought it would be."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

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.

Solar well pumps range from needing 200 watts of power to as much as 12,000 watts for heavy-duty pumps. Since the most common and cost-friendly solar panels are 100-watt panels, you’ll need between two and 12 panels. The average is between two and eight panels for standard pumps. Based on the average cost of solar panels ($1 to $1.50 per watt), you’d pay between $200 and $1,800 for your well pump solar panels—not including installation.

Not all homes are suited for solar panel systems. Older roofs or those in poor condition may need repairs or replacement before solar panels can be installed. Some other factors to consider are the amount of sunlight your roof receives, the roof’s orientation and pitch, and any shading from nearby trees or buildings.

Solar batteries can be a great investment to help maximize your solar savings and make your system and home more valuable, but they’re most beneficial to customers who don’t have access to net metering. If your state or energy provider doesn’t provide net metering, batteries can be a great way to offset consumption even when your panels aren’t producing power. They also come with the added benefit of providing electricity through blackouts, so they’re valuable in areas prone to severe weather that could cause frequent blackouts. Your installer can help you decide if batteries are worthwhile.

Yes, it is possible to install solar panels on a tar and gravel roof, but it is not the ideal roofing material for a solar installation. The process requires roof penetrations to install the solar racking system. While installers will seal these penetrations, they still increase the risk of leaks. This risk is higher on tar and gravel roofs, which are often flat. Flat roofs are more prone to leaks than sloped roofs because they can pool water during heavy rain and hold snow for longer periods, exposing the roof to more moisture.
