The staff at Uprise Solar went above and beyond for every part of our solar panel project. They met with us personally in a low-pressure conversation to discuss all the aspects of the process. Our house is in the historic preservation zone on Capitol Hill (DC) and we were concerned about forfeiting a deposit if our permits were not approved. Uprise figured out a way to manage the financing so that we would not be out any money, and then they managed the entire permitting process which was approved without a problem. We had a few small issues that arose after the installation process and each time the staff were easy to contact and immediately responsive with solutions. My impression is that they have made responsive customer care a top priority; it makes a huge difference to deal with a company that isn't just trying to close a project but wants its customers to be happy and feel they have been treated well.

I'm writing this letter to state my official recommendation for Uprise Electrical Company for any solar needs. As a new homeowner, I've had a working relationship with Chris, Uprise’s owner, and only have praise for their business. Chris is extremely knowledgeable about solar panel installation and employs others who share their passion for increasing awareness of the benefits of installing solar on your home. Chris and the rest of the professionals at Uprise Electrical Company always complete their work well within the deadline assigned and they kept me informed throughout the project so that I was never left wondering if things were progressing as they should. I'm happy to recommend Uprise Electrical Company to any company or individual who wants to improve their property’s look or learn more about how your system will benefit you for years to come.

Working with Uprise was easy and comfortable from our first inquiry about residential rooftop solar, through the contract process and completion of the install. The Uprise team was flexible, clean, and efficient. Chris is very knowledgeable about the solar industry and installation process and thoughtfully answered our many questions. The steps were clear, the install/inspection service was punctual and after three months with solar panels on the roof, the financial and environmental benefits are palpable. We would definitely recommend working with Uprise.

The team at Uprise was great to work with! Felt like we had a really personalized experience and they kept us updated regularly as the project moved along. Proud to have the sign in our front yard and excited to see them help more DC residents go solar.
Description of Work: We had a solar array installed on our rooftop. We signed a PPA (power purchase agreement with Uprise and leased our roof to them).

Uprise is one of the best solar installers in Washington DC to put solar on your home. Not only did their team do great work installing our solar panel system earlier this year, Uprise even helped us long after the install on system maintenance and issues particular to my house. Good for environment, good for the pocketbook! They put their customers first and we highly recommend them!

We've wanted to go solar for some time because of rising energy costs and environmental concerns, but hesitated because the process seemed complicated. Finally pulled the trigger late last year after Uprise patiently walked us through every step, explained every issue, and answered all of my questions. Financially speaking: it's a no-brainer with energy cost savings AND income from selling SRECs. And can't overstate how easy Uprise made the installation, dealing with the DC govt. and the SREC broker. Finally, Uprise is a locally owned and operated company, invest in DC!
