Top Solar Installation Companies Near Ashburn

Terrific job. Jim and his team provided us with expert advice to meet our needs for moving to solar energy. He is really knowledgeable about all the programs in Maryland that support transitioning to solar and net metering. All we had to do was provide the roof. I highly recommend Celestial Solar.

We went with Solar Solutions for installing solar panels and they were fantastic. Our sales rep, Doug, was extremely patient and knowledgeable and helped walk us through the various options - (purchase outright, purchase without getting the annual credits, or lease). The work crew installed the panels in roughly half a day and six months later everything continues to work perfectly. Would absolutely recommend Solar Solutions for anyone interested in getting solar panels.

Celestial Solar did a fabulous job installing our solar panels in the front and back of the house. Jim Reilly walked us through the options and answered our never-ending questions. Both the office and the on-the-ground crew were knowledgeable, responsive, professional, and efficient. We would highly recommend them for anyone considering solar!

Robert was great to work with on a potential solar installation. We set up an appointment quickly, he arrived promptly, and was highly professional. He provided the design and estimate quickly. This was the least expensive of the solar options we considered, with some 3 to 4 times as much. We ultimately chose a mid-range approach that used North American sourced materials and provided more power. However, I was impressed with Robert and Solar Solutions and would highly recommend you consider them for your solar project.

Hands down this is the most professional company I have dealt with in a long time. Jim and his team are top notch! Jim gave me multiple options to fit my budget, and in the first two weeks, I produced enough power to cover my electric use in December. I am excited to see how much solar power these things can bring in. They have the best solar equipment there is. You will not be disappointed. Go Solar with Celestial Solar Innovations!!

Joel Griggs, owner of American Solar, did an outstanding job of trouble shooting & repairing a water leak, with the professionalism, skill and reasonable pricing which are characteristic of the company. We have been customers for some 20 years, and American Solar continues to provide outstanding, responsive, and personal service which keeps both our solar-swimming-pool & domestic-hot-water systems functioning perfectly and most efficiently. Joel and American Solar are the best!

Prospect Solar installed 37 solar panels on our roof in December 2020. The entire process went smoothly. The customer service was superb and the price was great too. I highly recommend them to others.

“Five years and six companies later” I first considered solar in 2014. The lease option seemed to not provide much benefit to the homeowner. In 2019 I got serious about installing solar, interviewing five companies. Most of the companies were heavy on the marketing approach and a bit slow in addressing technical questions. Jim Reilly of Celestial Solar Innovations was different. No pressure to buy, but an interest in answering technical questions and discussing pros and cons. I purchased a 39-panel array rated at 12.09 kWp. Installation was completed on time with no problems. The workmen were personable and knowledgeable. NO call-backs for installation problems. Jim Reilly also put me in contact with a roofing company to install a new roof which provided a solid base for the solar installation. I am very comfortable with my decision to choose Celestial Solar Innovations for my solar installation.

Solar Energy World installed our solar system in a very timely manner with absolutely no issues. We have now been using our system for over 2 1/2 months and the estimates on electricity output have proven accurate (in fact, in November our system generated substantially more electricity than was estimated for the month). While of course electricity generation relates a lot to how many sunny vs. cloudy days there are in a month, our experience so far gives us a lot of confidence in the estimates we received from Solar Energy World. Solar Energy World also was by a good margin the least expensive contractor we contacted. So, on both price and service, we highly recommend Solar Energy World.

Solar Energy Services is, hands down, the most efficient and professional solar installer in this region. Would not even hesitate to use them 1000 more times. Do not even bother looking for anyone else.

His delivery was incredibly informative and friendly and I feel well-informed about the potential of solar in Virginia thanks to Herve. He has an incredible non-salesman approach and has a quality solar product at a competitive price.

Jim and his team were extremely easy to work with; the process unfolded exactly as he described. We considered several different options before working with Jim. Alternative installers clearly cut costs through subcontracting labor to the lowest bidder, buying lower quality panels at scale, and using older technology. No other company had the transparency and level of customer service Jim provided.

The good price and the partnership with the solar company made me want to go with this company. I got 4 bids for my roof replacement and Certified’s was the lowest. They had done my neighbor’s roof and I had a good recommendation from him. Plus they have a great partnership with a solar company, Solar Solution. They combine the cost of the roof with the cost of the solar panels so that both qualify for the 30% federal tax credit. Solar Solution sells the solar renewable energy certificate (SREC) so in DC you get a 20 panel solar array for $5200 ($3640) after the tax credit. And you own the solar panels (not lease). With the tax credit on both the roof and the solar panels, the solar panels pay for themselves after less than a year of electricity savings. And then you get electricity savings for the 25 yr life of the panels. They did a modified bitumen granulated white flat roof. They added blown in insulation. They removed the rotted 1 x 6 planks. I had them remove the non-rotted 1 x 6 planks as well so they could access the area to add the insulation. I really wanted insulation because my house loses a lot of heat. Then they replaced with plywood. They took pictures and video of the work. They did the flashing around the chimney and the roof caps. They replaced the gutters. I was pleased with the work. I’m also pleased that the roof comes with a 15 year workmanship warranty and 20 yr product warranty. The solar panels come with a 10 yr workmanship warranty and a 25 yr product warranty. What I had before: a black flat roof that baked in the sun with no insulation in the attic, lots of ponding, and rotted wooding supporting it. What I have now: a white flat roof that reflects the sun, has lots of insulation in the attic, no ponding, firm structure and support, and will very soon have a solar array on it that will save me $60 per month on my electric bill. Cost: $7900 for roof, $1320 for new plywood, $1300 for insulation, $800 for gutters, $5200 for 5.2kw solar array. Total $16,520. Tax credit: $4956. Total after tax credit: $11,564.

Celestial Solar Innovations installed a large solar array at my Chevy Chase MD home in 2016. I was very pleased with their attention to detail and the high quality of the installation. Jim Reilly provided excellent and professional advice from the design and selection of components through the completed installation and operation of the system. Mr. Reilly is an expert in solar installations. He was instrumental in identifying the most appropriate panels for my home. At his suggestion I used black on black LG panels which were a perfect solution for my home. I highly recommend Celestial Solar Innovations and Jim Reilly.

Ipsun Power provided straightforward analysis on the potential for our house to use solar power. In the end, it turned out that solar did not make sense for our house due to a technical difficulty. We received quotes from other companies but Ipsun always provided information and estimates to us that were supported by solid analysis and full disclosure that allowed us to make an informed decision. In the end, the technical issue prevented us from installing solar but we found Ipsun Power to be the most knowledgeable and truthful of all the companies we talked to about solar installation (the other companies ignored the issue). We strongly recommend Ipsun Power.

Solar Energy World exceeded my expectations at every step of the process. I would give A+++ if possible. Jamie the sales rep was fantastic to work with, ever patient with my million questions, and good to his word. The install crew were friendly and professional. The receptionist is always nice and even, Jeff,the computer monitoring system guy, is super helpful and friendly. There are many steps to going solar and many people that I interacted with. Every one of them demonstrates competence and professionalism. The final system performs exactly as it was designed to run. I could not be happier. Do not hesitate to go solar with Solar Energy World.

After talking with several solar panel installers, we chose Celestial Solar Innovations, represented by Jim Reilly, because they were the most responsive to our questions, gave the clearest and fullest explanation of our options, and offered the best price for the system we wanted. During installation, they performed exactly as promised in terms of schedule, clean-up, and price. The install crew were polite, quick, and tidy. The follow-up was equally thorough, with a knowledgeable technician visiting to ensure our system was working, generating power, and connected to the on-line monitoring system so we can track our energy production. Celestial Solar made things easy by doing the paperwork needed to obtain permits, manage the switch with BGE, and submit our documentation for solar energy tax credits. We are delighted with the results of our project with Celestial Solar.

Celestial Solar Innovations is a family owned and local to our area. Celestial Solar became our Solar company to work with because of Jim’s knowledge, friendliness, and personality. Jim explained my questions with facts and ensure I understood what was being created and installed. Installation was conducted on time with little disruption to the neighborhood and families. Kudos to the teams and staff in working together to get the project accomplished. POWER UP!!! and Thank you.

I’m still planning and haven’t installed anything yet but Emily at MSS has been terrific. She talked me through the entire process with an admirable combination of knowledge, patience, and candor. We discussed the pros and cons of installing panels at my place, designed a system using satellite images of my home that’s appropriately sized to offset my electricity consumption, estimated the cost of my install, reviewed federal, state, and local tax breaks along with anticipated SRECs, and determined my likely payback period. I highly recommend.

I became interested in looking into solar after my in-laws put solar on their home and were able to completely eliminate their electric bills. I decided to interview 3 different companies to get an idea of cost and recommended technology. I initially researched companies via Angie’s list and determined the best companies in the solar category. After interviewing all three companies I found the Celestial solar stood out in price, flexibility and design. Jim Reilly listened to my needs and presented a solar configuration with exactly what I was looking for. He met all of my requirements for the system and also provided the lowest price versus the competitors. Initially it made me nervous that he had such a low price, but after looking over numerous reviews and investigating the solar hardware he was providing I realized that he knew what he was doing and was not cutting corners in any way. So far the system has exceeded my expectations and produces more than what I was hoping every month. I could not be happier with Jim and his team and would recommend that anyone looking for solar in Maryland call Jim first!
