"Dustin was super friendly, and did his best to make sure that my solar panels were back up and running the same day. I highly recommend him as an electrician. I will personally be going back to him for any future electrical work that I need done."

"I had a 14.175 kW solar system installed with one Tesla Powerwall, and honestly, I couldn't be happier—especially here in Houston where the weather can be all over the place. Solstice Solar made everything super easy from beginning to end. They took care of it all—HOA approval, permits, utility stuff—you name it. I talked to a few other companies before deciding, but what really made Solstice stand out was how fast they got back to me, how clear they were about the whole process, and just how easy they were to work with. Xochilth was super kind and helped me every step of the way—she was always quick to respond and super helpful. Ashley was also amazing and made sure permitting and installation approval went through quickly and smoothly. They both made the whole process a lot less stressful. If you’re thinking about going solar, I highly recommend Solstice. They really go above and beyond to make the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Thank you Solstice team!"

"I could not be happier with my experience working with Central Texas Solar. From start to finish, they were incredibly professional, responsive, and trustworthy. Every question was answered quickly and clearly, and they took the time to explain the entire process in a way that made me feel confident and informed. The quality of their work was outstanding. The installation was done efficiently and with great attention to detail. You can tell they take real pride in what they do, and it shows in the final product. It is not always easy to find a company that delivers both top-notch service and top-tier quality. I highly recommend them to anyone considering solar ? you will be in good hands!"

"First off, my experience with AllStar Solar Screens was absolutely wonderful! Chris & Liz came out right away, measured all the windows and installed everything professionally & promptly. They went above and beyond to see that everything was taken care of and the service overall was a dream and a pleasure! We ended up going with the (Dark Bronze) color and couldn't be happier with the selection. Huge shoutout to AllStar Solar Screens and Chris and Liz. I'm definitely a customer for life and will certainly return to them for further products and installs. Way to go!!! :) Highly recommend!!"

"I had solar panels installed by SunPower's subcontractor Hooked on Solar in 2020. In 2023 some of the panels were damaged by an electrical outage and surge. It took about 4 months for Hooked on Solar to identify the damaged panels, schedule an appointment to replacement, but finally they fixed the panels."

"My experience with this company from the 1st phone call to the installation to the service after the job was
completed has been great. They did a good job of communicating with us along the way and letting us know what to expect.
Our salesperson was very knowledgeable and helpful. We were very impressed that the owner of the company sent us a card with his contact information and encouraged us to call him if we had any questions or concerns. The installation crew showed up on time and finished the entire job in one day. They kept things neat and did a good job of answering my 1,000 questions I had
for them during the installation. A special thanks to Mr. Trey, who went out of his way during the installation of the solar panels to make me feel comfortable. When I called him with questions about how the waterproofing worked, he stopped the entire job and brought me up on the roof to show me how the special roof brackets keep things from leaking.  We have just received our first electric bill and it was significantly lower than the same bill last year. We would recommend this company.

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

Yes, installing solar panels or a solar roof can increase your home's value by approximately 4% to 6%. For a home with a median value of $429,000, this could translate to an increase of around $17,000. A well-maintained solar installation appeals to environmentally-conscious buyers and those looking to lower their utility bills, often helping homes sell faster and at a premium in areas with high electricity rates. However, the exact increase in value depends on factors like the local real estate market, energy costs, and available solar incentives. It's also important that the system is correctly installed and maintained; an older or poorly maintained system may not add significant value, particularly if it's near the end of its lifespan. Other solar features, like panels on a shed, can also boost your home's value.

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.

Depending on the climate in your area, the best time to install solar panels is either winter or early spring. Summer is a fine time to install panels, too, but it tends to be the busy season, so prices may be higher and companies may have packed schedules. The installation process can take more time than expected between getting permits and finalizing a design, so start as soon as you can.

The best way to know if your roof can support solar panels is to hire a structural engineer. They’ll look at your roof and approve the design of your solar panel system or suggest changes. The best roofing for solar panels is made from strong materials like asphalt shingles and metal, but tile and gravel will work. Softer materials like thatch or temporary structures are not a good fit.

Yes, solar panel installation will require permits. The required permits will depend on where you live, as some states and cities have solar-specific permits, while others only require electrical permits to connect to the grid. In either case, it’s best to hire a reputable solar installer in your area, as a representative should handle all of the necessary permitting for you and will include the cost of the permits in your initial solar estimate.
