GREAT SERVICE

The team surpassed my expectations! They arrived early, worked quickly to get everything set up, and were incredibly professional and friendly. I worked primarily with Joe during the day. He answered any and all questions I had, made sure I was informed of progress, clearly communicated the work to be done and next steps, and allowed me to be a little nosey throughout the whole process. I would (and have already) happily recommend Everlight Solar to anyone interested in upgrading their home.

This is the only retail place I have seen where installers and individuals can get what they need for solar electric or solar hot water projects from knowledgeable staff.

Busy store, but ample room in the aisles to move around. Very large selection of dairy, cheese & meat sections. Extensive delicious & fresh fruit, veggies & salad choices.

Quality company that was able to fit our installation into their very busy schedule. Happy with the work done and great to deal with a local business.

Very pleasant experience overall. Was able to lay on the glass panes without damaging the underlying solar cells. I downgraded to 4 star because I had to get off when my skin caught fire but otherwise I would recommend this

When you want someone who cares as much about your project as you do then Solar Energy Living is the way to go! Had my system up and running in a timely manner and everything looked professional. Clear communication, a passion for the work and a professional job sets these guys apart!

I can’t say enough good things about SEM! I appreciated each person with whom we interacted, and their overall approach. After initial inquiry, a Residential Energy Specialist (Randy) prepares a detailed proposal based on solar modeling and current home energy usage. There’s no pressure for unnecessary items (additional panels beyond what we needed for net metering, batteries we weren’t yet ready for.) The communication was clear all along the way, from our project manager (Sarah) coordinating everything and providing regular updates. The on-site technical assessment provided additional details, and the install crew was professional, and flexible in working around weather curveballs. Our project was finished ahead of schedule. We are 100% satisfied. (And with the 30% tax liability refund, we should probably say 130% satisfied!) Definitely would recommend. They provide exactly what they say they will, and do it well.

We have been waiting 2 1/4 years post install to write this review. We felt it important to say that we've worked with the NCSN team post install, to speak with them over the phone or email with questions or concerns, before writing a NC Solar Now review. A PV system was a long term bucket list project for us for years. We took years researching local and coastal solar companies to determine who to work with. Our south facing home was situated well for this project. We wanted a reliable, stable solar company with a long track record of PV installs who would stand behind their work for 20+ years, used quality products, didn't cut corners at any time, and be a company with a customer oriented approach to listening to the customer's project objectives and professionally installing and being able to service our PV needs long term. We chose NC Solar Now. To us, our decision on who we chose as a PV vendor was one of the most important decisions of the project. Our project requirements were to create a PV system with battery backup that would serve as a whole house power generation system, in case of power loss; power loss and power stability are issues where we live. We first updated our home to be as green as we could first (LED lighting conversion, new appliances, etc.) and with 2 AC units with combined 5 tons cooling capacity, we were using 50 kWh average daily consumption based on yearly usage numbers. Our home is all electric. I expressed that we wanted to achieve around 70-80% net yearly energy savings and get our ROI under 10 years, post rebate. I wanted our installer to handle all home and utility permitting and rebating processes. As a home owner I am picky about how things look when it comes to our home, so a clean laid out install on the exterior as well as the interior was a requirement. They delivered on this. This is a new subdivision, and I was the first to get a PV system. It was my requirement that the PV panels be all black finish on the cell panel and the panel framing itself (no panel cell lines connections or stripping) against our black shingles. The panels themselves and the panel layout had to look great from the street. We had an HOA to please and I didn't want anyone to say it did not look good. NC Solar Now provided our HOA with technical information to help make the HOA decision process easier. A technician with a drone came out on 9/25 to survey the roof to determine panel placement and roof pitch. We signed a contract 10/1 for install of 2 Tesla Powerwall's paired with 26 Solaria PowerXT®-360R-PD panels with 1 SolarEdge SE10000H-US inverter, for a rated system output of 9.36 DC kW. HOA approval came 12/21. The install was broken into two dates. NCSN installed roof panels on 02/26 on a challenging 6/12 pitched high roof. On install day, 3 install trucks arrived plus 1 equipment delivery truck, 7 installers, it was a well orchestrated team effort. I was impressed by their professionalism and manners, how well they collaborated and worked together, how well and thought out the install was done and cleanup. On 3/3, 3 more install trucks, 1 equipment delivery truck, with 5 electrician installers showed up to complete the install of the Teslas and do all the outside box placement and inside electrical interconnections. They came prepared both days with all the equipment and staff they needed to do the install. Inspections happened a few days later and I was up and running. Any date give, from contract signing to project completion that was promised, was delivered on. They were proactive in their communications. I've included 3 completion pics to this review. Given my experiences with the company, and the results obtained, I would still choose NC Solar Now as my PV vendor. They are good people, who care about their customers after the sale - I can't stress how important that is.

These guys are great. And tucked away in Apex. So convenient for Fuquay-Varina, Holly Springs, Apex, and Cary.

I got my solar panels through Solar Panther. I talked to many companies before I heard anything about them. You feel part of the family the moment you meet them. They make the process easy, great at communicating, always pleasant and always easy to get a hold of somebody. You’re a fool to go elsewhere. You won’t be disappointed!!!

The staff in the Tire Center went above and beyond in fixing a tire emergency on our way home. We can't say enough on what they did for us. They proved that people are still willing to help each other. Thank you.
