"We had a large solar system installed a year ago by a local solar company. After a year the system melted down due to some faulty wiring. It took a month before the system was functional again, but our battery was also taken out in the melt down. We were told it would take a few weeks to get the paperwork through the system to warranty out our battery. After waiting three months we decided to contact Green Ridge Solar to see if they could help with our problem. To say they were life savers is an understatement. They answered the phone immediately, understood the problem and sent out a very experienced electrician in a very timely manner. They were able to warranty out our existing battery and we decided to order an additional battery through their company. The new battery was only half the cost from the first one that was installed by the original company. They were fast, friendly and professional. I would hire them again in a heart beat."

"In preparation for a super hot summer, I decided it would be a good move to get my heat pump serviced early. Tasha made the entire process SO easy! She was very pleasant to work with and took the time to answer all of my questions about the service visit. Corey was great too when he came out. He was very professional and super informative about how to care for the unit so it lasts many years to come. Overall this was a great experience and I feel more confidant as a new homeowner!"

"From his report : Cut open sheetrock in garage to expose section of burst CPVC. Replaced frost free sillcock/ hosebib and section of CPVC with PEX pipe, and put insulation on. Checked for leaks, none.
My comments: I thought they would have some fancy equipment to find the exact location of the leak. Actually, he had me turn the water supply on slowly while he looked around for water. It took a while for the water to come out so he was having a hard time tracking the leak down. This resulted in us unnecessarily moving out some additional shelving further back in the garage. Finally, he had me open the water supply up more and the water started coming out below the faucet at the front of the house. He did a good job of cutting the holes in the sheetrock in the right places. He then had to cut through another pressboard panel to reach inside the column and get at the back of the hosebib. The CPVC pipe was badly shattered right behind the hosebib. He asked me if the old hosebib was leaking or hard to turn at all, and if I wanted to replace it. It was working fine but since it was 17 years old I had him put on a new one. The PEX pipe with insulation and a new hosebib were quickly installed. We talked about the holes and I decided to use one of his plastic spring-fit covers over one of them, and I will likely re-sheetrock the other one. He cleaned up his work area well including taking away the old plumbing. Everything was finished in about an hour. I did not ask them for any quote in advance, and he just charged me for a flat rate hosebib replacement which is $235 plus tax. This is a little more than I was expecting after looking at costs for similar work on Angies list but the price does seem reasonable.

"They did a very good job, and they were careful not to damage siding or surrounding landscaping.   Cleaned up the work area each day, and upon completion left the area looking better than before the work started.   The best part -- no more leaking water in our basement.   I waited to write this review until we had been through a couple period of heavy rain.   Thanks Q!

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install solar panels is around $27,000, with most homeowners paying between $4,500 and $54,000. These prices don’t consider the federal investment tax credit (ITC), which can reduce costs by up to 30%. The final price depends on several factors, including the size of the system needed to offset your energy consumption, the amount of sunlight your home receives, your geographical location, the type and brand of panels, labor costs, and any add-on products like solar batteries or electric vehicle (EV) chargers. It is recommended to get price quotes from at least three solar companies in your area to find the best deal.

Solar panels have a life span between 10 and 40 years, depending on the type of panel. For example, monocrystalline panels can last up to 40 years, while thin-film ones only last between 10 and 20 years. The longevity also comes down to keeping up with solar panel repairs and their related costs .

Homeowners replace their solar panels after 25 years. That said, you don’t necessarily need to replace them at the 25-year mark. You’ll notice a declining ability to produce electricity over time. Most homeowners spring for a replacement when they notice their energy bills creeping up to regular levels or when solar panel repairs are extensive, frequent, and no longer economical.

Solar shingles typically last between 20 and 30 years, a lifespan comparable to that of traditional solar panels and standard asphalt shingles. The exact duration depends on the manufacturer and the quality of the installation. Because solar shingles are a newer technology, there is limited data on their actual long-term performance. Factors that can impact their durability and longevity include weather conditions, roof ventilation, and regular maintenance. To extend the life of your solar shingles, you should conduct regular inspections and cleaning, and make any necessary repairs as quickly as possible.

You can install solar panels on a metal roof, but it will require some additional thought and care versus a traditional asphalt shingle roof. That’s because heat dissipates off a metal roof differently than asphalt or wood, so you may need to space the panels further from the roof. However, a pro can help you with the details and provide a safe and effective installation.
