"If you need a repair or want to have your panels removed for a roofing project, expect to be calling multiple times a day just to get someone to show up. The lack of communication was matched only by the bad-faith representations. When I needed my solar panels removed for a roofing project, trying to get them to commit to a date for the removal and reinstallation turned a 1 week project into a slog lasting 2 months just because they could not commit to a date without me calling incessantly to ask when they were showing up to finish their work. I was hoping this was was not representative of their company culture and business ethic and gave them another chance when I experienced a failure with my inverter. After reporting a problem with my array I was told repeatedly that they would have someone out there quote, this week, to look at it for weeks. Then they finally told me they already had the replacement part on hand, told me it would be fixed that Thursday and then ghosted me for a few more weeks telling me they needed to RMA the part. When the new part was finally installed, it was not configured to adequately serve my system and my battery backup was suddenly useless. Instead of showing any interest in correcting the issue, they just blamed the batteries, shifted the responsibility for fixing their mistake back to me and disappeared. These folks were pleasant to talk to and laid on the apologies, but the action to make things right did not follow. I cannot recommend them unless you want to waste your time hounding someone just to get a response."

Happy Home Plumbing & Heating a family owned and operated business that focuses on residential and light commercial work. We are master plumbers in MA and NH and have over 48 years experience. We take pride in our work and always make our customers' best interest a top priority.

"Thought I’d put this out there for any of you who are deciding that you need a plumber in the Atkinson area. I would definitely NOT RECOMMEND Matt from Happy Home P&H. In my opinion he performed an incomplete job, overcharged for it and made an unprofessional comment to me. You’ll have to decide if this is the kind of plumber you want for your job. On Friday 7/13/2023 I discovered a leak in my home. Water was coming through the kitchen ceiling. I did not know what was causing this. I called Happy Home P&H. I do have to say Matt responded quickly. Matt arrived and identified the issue as the toilet tank supply line between the toilet and the wall on the second floor. He mentioned that he recently had some other jobs in my condo complex as he acknowledged that our homes are on the older side. He turned off the water to the toilet, replaced the toilet tank supply line and completed the job in less than 20 minutes. I don’t know if he took a few extra minutes to check any other plumbing parts around the leak area to ensure all was in working order...but apparently he did not. I was charged $250 because it was deemed an emergency which I gladly paid. That evening I noticed that water was still dripping from the area of “The Fix”. I called Matt at Happy Home P&H and arranged for him to come back as I felt he did not completely fix the issue I had paid him $250 for. When Matt returned, before he even looked at the leak, he said he thought it was probably a nut that needed tightning at the water shutoff as the materials were old. He completed the "tightning of the stop packing nut at toilet" in under 5 minutes. I don’t know if he took a few extra minutes to check any other plumbing parts around the leak area to ensure all was in working order... but apparently he did not. He told me the charge would be $100 for coming back to fix the leak. I suggested the fix was something he touched the day before and should be considered as included in the original fix. He did not agree. I paid Matt $100. I told him I was disappointed about having to pay a second time and would be posting my disappointment on the Atkinson Community Facebook page and passing my experience onto my Atkinson neighbors. That evening I noticed that water was still dripping from the area of “The Fix”. I notified Matt of the continued leaking. Matt said he was busy today but offered to come back the next day. However he prefaced it by saying “even though I don’t want you as a customer” I will fix my work. I have decided to not allow Matt back into my home given his unprofessional comment and the fact that after two visits there is still water leaking from my toilet. I feel uncomfortable and do not want to allow a worker into my home who quote "does not want me as a customer". This was my experience with hiring Matt of Happy Home P&H."

For over 20 years, Moonworks has operated around one core principle, that the customer deserves the very best. Over the past two decades, Moonworks has expanded the product line include quality brands like Gutter Helmet, EcoView windows & doors, Dr. Energy Saver insulation and energy saving products, Ice Defense featuring Heated Helmet and GAF Master Elite certified roofing. Though our company has expanded, our principle remains the same: provide first-class customer service and offer the very best materials combined with professional installation.

"i have been acting as an agent/advocate for my mom who is 87. she had a roof installed which has had numerous leaks. 2 in garage (now taken care of) where solar lines go through to roof panels.; 1 from improperly sealed window (also ok now) leaking into 3 season porch, causing water damage; 1 around improperly flashed chimney (paid another company $1800 to repair), and now, another one where roof meets vertical end wall of house (leaking into 2nd floor ceiling and down wall into kitchen). Have been calling company for OVER A MONTH and still have not gotten any help from them. They DO NOT RETURN PHONE CALLS!!! Customer service (Ashley and Ryan) have both "left messages for Jesse" as well as "reaching out to him personally". I now have left messages on his cell, and WILL BE FILING COMPLAINT WITH BBB, Office of Elderly Affairs, AG, and State Board of Licensing!! ****STAY AWAY*** ***READ REVIEWS*** (here AND on other sites!!)"

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

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.

  • Installing a new electrical meter box

  • Replacing your meter base

  • Replacing your service entrance cable 

The cost to install or upgrade an electrical meter box ranges from $100 to $650, including $50 to $250 for the unit. The meter base passes the power from your electric company to your panel. The cost to replace a meter base is roughly $50 to $250. 

Service entrance cables are electrical cables with multiple wires, bringing power from electrical companies to residential buildings. The cost to replace a service entrance cable ranges roughly from $1,000 to $1,500.

You can install solar panels on a flat or pitched roof, but keep in mind that they will need to rest at a 30- to 50-degree tilt for optimal sun absorption. It costs more to install solar panels on a flat roof because you will need to install a framing system and likely hire a structural engineer. If your roof has a pitch of more than 40 degrees, it may not be a good candidate for solar panels.

Yes, a solar panel can power a TV without a battery, but only if the sun is shining and the panel is generating enough energy. Your solar panel and TV must have the same voltage, and you should install a charge controller and inverter between them so power surges don’t destroy your TV. To watch TV at night, in the early morning and late afternoon, and on cloudy days, your home must be tied to the power grid.

In almost every case, solar panels need to be removed to replace roof shingles. In some cases, such as solar installations where the panels are on raised platforms above the roof surface, installers may be able to install new shingles without removing the solar installation. However, to get a quality roofing installation, panels need to come off. Most roofing contractors won’t remove or reinstall solar panels as part of a roofing project, so you’ll need to contact your solar provider.
