"Generally well. They caused some unnecessary roof damage when relocating some panels, but they paid for my preferred roofer to fix it with no trouble. Generally great people to work with and a bargain compared to their competitors."

"My original installer went bankrupt. My solar panels stopped working due to the inverter failing. GenX was a pleasure to deal with. They were very good communicating with me. They got my solar system working again for a very reasonable price. I decided that it was a good idea to hire them for yearly maintenance on the system. GenX did a great job even though it was 0 degrees Fahrenheit outside."

Customers say: Quality work

"YellowLite installed my solar system (36 panels, 91% of my energy requirements) in mid-Feb 2020. I have not paid a utility bill since then, and still have a $500 credit on my net metering. Not bad for an all-electric tri-level home, where I keep the AC set on 72F all summer..... I used the EnergySage website to gather quotes and do my research. Of the four quotes (one outside of EnergySage), YellowLite was the best system in terms of energy generation, as well as least expensive by a wide (about 20K) margin. The installation crew were very efficient and professional, as were all the folks who were involved in the project planning, surveys and service initiation. Communication was a bit spotty before project installation, but things really took off from there and I honesty cannot recommend YellowLite highly enough. Installation took less than one day. The SolarEdge app lets you see exactly what your system is generating every hour of every day. It's so wonderful to wake up every day and know I did something wonderful for Mother Earth, and it's paying me personal dividends as well. Even on an overcast November day, my system is producing SOLAR ENERGY. And if you do your research, you will likely find that if you need financing to go solar, your monthly loan payments will be about the same as you are currently paying to your energy provider; the difference is when your loan payments are completed, you will have FREE ENERGY for years to come. If you are thinking of a solar system, DON'T WAIT!! Your free electricity and your solar energy tax credit (22% in 2021) are waiting!!"

"Green Rack was excellent to work with to get my solar panel system specced out and installed. From sales process to install, all questions and concerns were handled quickly and promptly. I had the install done in Oct 2024, and the system is running great 6+ months later. Green Rack handled all the paperwork when I needed HOA approval as well as they took care of the interconnection with our utility company as well. I can easily recommend Green Rack to anyone looking to install a solar setup on your house. The layout was designed with aesthetics in mind and all wiring and conduit was cleanly routed to avoid any unsightly lines with the house's overall aesthetic."

"Joe Sabo was the representative that I worked with for this project. He was very attentive to our needs; he was prompt at all meetings and getting the job done on time. He kept us informed on all aspects of the job. The crew was courteous and friendly and their performance exceeded our expectations. We also had our gutters replaced. I recommend Bradford Xteriors without reservation."

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

As long as your solar panels are properly installed without damage to your roof, they will not shorten the roof’s life span. Solar panels can act as a cover or barrier to your roof and help block external elements, such as debris, heat, and UV rays. Reduced exposure to the weather can extend your roof’s life.

Insurance companies aren’t against solar panels, but they may have concerns about the risks and costs of insuring solar. The type of policy, where you live, and the insurance company itself matter. Extreme weather can damage solar panels, and faulty installation or electrical malfunctions pose a fire risk—this, in turn, can increase insurance company liability and payouts. However, you’re likely to keep coverage as long as you have a pro install the solar system, keep it maintained, can pass a solar panel inspection, and update your homeowners policy to include solar.

The actual time it takes to construct the solar farm is relatively short, taking between 2 and 4 months on average. That timeline is dependent on site conditions, crew size, and the overall size of the solar farm.

However, the time it takes to get the ball rolling is significantly longer, ranging from 3 to 5 years. With a project of this scale, you’ll need to obtain all of the proper permits and approvals to start breaking ground, and depending on your location, that could be an extended process.

Yes, you should tell your home insurance company about your solar panels. Even if you believe they’re covered by your existing policy, installing a solar panel system is a significant change to your home. This can affect coverage and premiums. By discussing your new solar panel installation with your insurance provider, you can be sure you have enough coverage and that the policy completely covers the panels against damage.

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.
