Im extremely happy with the solar installation at my home! From start to finish, the work was done professionally, efficiently, and with great attention to detail. Everything was explained clearly, and the system has been working perfectly since it was installed. I truly appreciate the excellent job and the dedication put into making sure everything was done right. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality solar work and great customer service!

At long last a knowledgeable & patient gentleman!!!!!!!!!I called DO IT RIGHT SOLAR after reading his reviews as my past experience with looking into solar had been a nightmare .. No one took the time to give options or explain the process. I found I was more confused after they left than before they arrived . Whereas Leon actually took the time to explain my options .He was most thorough in his explanations which helped me to make the right decision for my situation . Without a doubt I would recommend this company to everyone and anyone who is looking into solar.I must add he even took the time to call RIE to clarify my usage as they were many errors and irregularities on the bills sent from RIEWho does that in this day and age . Not one of the other solar companies who came to give an estimate even noted a problem. All I can say is he is the .Most professional and through gentleman I have ever had the pleasure or experience to work withCall with confidence,!!!!!!!you will be so pleasantly surprised by Leon's knowledge & integrity .A million thanks Leon for what I feel was clearly going beyond the call of duty

I contacted Leon from Do It Right Solar on May 26th. Received an estimate quickly. But the estimate is only a small part of this process. Start to finish I was told would be 2 months. There are several steps to this process that take time. It couldnt have been more spot on as far as timeline. Along the way any questions I had were answered almost in real time. The communication is incredible. Today is August 5th and all the panels and electrical were installed. Now we only need the electric company to switch the meter and we will be up and rolling! We have a 2600 sq ft colonial. Just my husband and I. In the dead of winter while not using AC or having our pool on the bill was $400. These bills are crazy!! These bills will never go down. Now the peace of mind I have knowing my monthly payment to own is $238 all in and there wont be an electric bill. We did put a brand new roof on just prior to getting the solar estimate. Roof was paid in cash.I cannot recommend DO IT RIGHT SOLAR ENOUGH!!! Please dont waste your time or money with another company.
