Randomly searching for a solar company and I came across this company which isn't too far from my town. Wanted to get a quote and idea what solar/battery would cost and what else I needed to get, if any. I didn't expect an in person 1 on 1 quote and them driving out their way to go over panels and battery with such great details. I've used the energysage site and got quotes from other places but only one meeting and that was via video chat type platform but that company gave me options but was trying to up sale and get me to get the more expensive stuff. The person that saw me was a gentleman named Paul was very informative and didn't peer pressure me like a quick lube place or what a salesman pitch would do. While talking with Paul, only thing I needed to do different to get the most out of my solar was the removal of many many trees that would shade my roof. This was something I did on my own. He gave me options and even suggested things that cost less and still would be a great option. I elected to go with the panels I wanted and battery. I went with some Phono Solar 400 Watt panels and the Tesla Powerwall 3. When the time came for the installation of panels and battery. I got to meet the workers and interact with them. The days they were working, it did start to drizzle and rain some but the workers kept on doing what they could until they couldn't anymore safely. They have some of the hardest working people I've ever seen! After the install was complete. It wasn't long, for me, for the county inspector to come out and pass my system. What took the longest was Duke approving, but that's normal cause of paperwork and getting things changed. I don't fault them for that. When I was able to flip the switch and turn things on. It was like a kid in a candy store, I was excited and wanted to see what my system was capable of. I'll find out on my next bill. The company actually notified me that there was something that needed to be addressed and sent someone out to address some reading issue for my system. They are on top of their game of taking care of their customers. From Paul to Taylor to August to the workers. They spoke to me like a person and not a number. All professional to me. SN- I've been stat tracking my electrical use, solar, and charging on the Tesla app and the Enphase app. It's addictive to me.
