About ten years ago I had a concrete slab installed with plans to build a shed. Along comes a stroke and that plan put on hold. As the years passed solar power started to get a lot of attention. I began to think about utilizing this slab for some kind of solar array My adventure with SunCommon began while driving down I-89 when I decided to stop at SunCommon headquarters to get some information. No one around except for a young lady who helped me fill out form on her office space computer. The next day I received a call and a time was set to meet with the solar. home advisor. He arrived as scheduled and reviewed my situation. I love post and beam construction and a canopy solar system was designed. By luck the post and beam canopy was a perfect fit for the concrete slab. Next came the evaluation person who did the initial layout. The foundation crew had to cut the corners of the slab off to accommodate the installation of 7ft ground screws. The concrete was thicker than anticipated which turned into quite the project. All eight screws were installed into ledge which had to be drilled. This phase of the project was delayed by extreme weather , heavy rain and lightning, and the FLOOD. My road was impassable along with many roads between Waterbury and my house, but within a few days things were repaired and ways of getting here were figured out. The erection of the post and beam canopy was done on the most beautiful day imaginable. What a beautiful structure. The foundation crew came back and did trenching and electrical conduit in pouring rain. The installation of the solar panels and associated wiring and equipment took half a day. I must say that all the people and I mean all the people were very polite, respecful of my property, extremely neat. and willing to explain and answer any questions or concerns that I had. SunCommon gets a grade 10 from me. I highly recomend SunCommon. David Bertrand
