In Massachusetts, you have a lot of choices when it comes to solar companies. You have the big guys, which tend to be more affordable and offer good quality customer service, and you have smaller solar companies that can give you more attention. It is important to understand what you are looking for in a company.
Trinity Solar, with offices in New England, is one the largest solar companies. It is family-owned, has been in business 30 years, has installed over 80K solar systems for Northeastern U.S. residents. You can expect the same level of customer service as a family company.
Boston Solar has been installing solar power systems for over ten years. They have a strong reputation for high quality work. Five consecutive years have seen them ranked among the top Massachusetts solar contractors. However, it is important to check out the company's credentials first. Many homeowners have had problems dealing with former installation companies. They found that these installers didn't offer excellent after-sales support.
You can also find small local companies that offer high-quality, personalized services. SunBug Company for instance has two Massachusetts locations. They specialize in all aspects of solar systems.
Palmetto Solar is another company with a strong focus in customer service. Their website offers discounts up to $2,000 These offers include a Peace of Mind Protection Plan, which includes discounts on services, labor, and parts. An optional monitoring program can be added to the system. This will ensure that your appliances are always running in case of an outage.
A company that has been in business for at least five consecutive years is a better choice. Having five years of experience helps the solar installer understand the needs of their customers.
If you've made a decision to go with a solar company for your project, it's worth looking at their pricing. Massachusetts' average installation costs are $14,000-19,000. Although most major companies offer a wide range of prices it is a good idea get estimates from at least four to five companies. This way you will find the best deal.
Some smaller Massachusetts companies might not have the resources to meet your requirements. ACE Solar and other companies offer complete-service solar services. You can also get financing options through them, which will make it easier to purchase a new system.
A good solar company should be able to answer any questions you have, provide a quote, and offer a guarantee. It's a good idea to check out customer reviews and testimonials before making your final decision.
It can be difficult choosing the right solar company. The Wind Solar Alliance can help you find a reliable company in your local area to make this process easier.

How To
What is the difference between a service agreement and a contract?
A service agreement is an offer by which a provider agrees to provide services for a customer. The agreement creates an obligation for both parties. The term "service" can be used to refer to the products, information, advice, or other services offered by a company.
A contract is a legally binding document that outlines the terms and conditions of a business relationship. If you purchase a product from a retailer you have entered into a contract. This means that you are legally bound to pay the item later. When you accept employment, you are entering into a contract.
An informal service agreement doesn't require formal documentation. It is rare to use a written service contract in practice. Verbal agreements are the norm.
However, a service agreement has several advantages over a contract:
-
A service agreement can be more flexible than a contract.
-
It allows a service company to change its mind without being penalized.

-

-
