"Washington Energy Services put a new water heater in our home almost 15 years ago. It was the weekend after we moved in. We were pleased with their service back then, so we called them again when our water heater leaked everywhere. They were able to come out the very next day and put our new water heater in. They took care of necessary permits and made that part so easy. They understood the urgency of our need and were kind and helpful. We would recommend them for any of their services."

"We had a new service panel installed as we have a very old house and were planning for a future remodel but we needed some other work to be completed first.  Mike and his crew gave us a good estimate, fit us into their busy schedule, got the job done on time, and were very professional.  They answered all our questions, kept the lights off for a minimum amount of time while installing the new service.  Mike patched the hole in the roof (while it was raining) where the old service supply came into the house and did a great job.  We were happy and would quickly recommend them to anybody looking for a skilled crew of electricians.  Only downside is they're busy so be patient.

"We were all set to spend close to $1000 on a new water heater. Told him that's what we needed.  This amazing guy came to our home. Said; 'you don't need a new water heater, just a new heat element' Gave us a year guarantee on his work and parts. He said'I don't like to charge people for work they don't need'
Who does that now a days? An honest man, I tell you. Thank you for being an honest person and a person with integrity. You've restored my faith in humanity. 
We gave him a dozen homemade organic chocolate chip cookies in our gratitude. 
HIRE this guy. you will be glad you did.

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts
  • 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.

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.

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.

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.

In most cases, solar panels are covered by homeowners insurance because they are considered a permanently attached part of the home, and you may not need additional coverage. However, it is essential to read the fine print of your specific policy to understand the extent of the coverage, as some policies might only cover certain types of damage, such as hail. Always check with your insurance provider before installing solar panels to ensure your policy provides adequate coverage for your investment.
