We love what we do. We design and install roof and ground mounted solar systems using state of the art software that gives you accurate projections of your energy production. All our solar equipment is Tier 1; monocrystalline 25 year solar panels, inverters, and batteries, depending on the type of solar system you want. We handle everything from start to finish, including the utility interconnection process. When we're done, you own the system and the power it produces. When it comes to roofing, we pump out our own 24 gauge, double lock standing seam panels and custom bend all our own trim. We install asphalt shingles, corrugated steel, and flat rubber (EPDM) roofing as well. We are respectful, clean, thorough, and do extremely high quality work!
"Great job, was done in 2 days, very professional."

"After contacting a couple of other electrical companies, we chose to go with Simpson Electric and I’m very glad we did. Tyler Simpson and his team were very knowledgeable, professional, well mannered, prompt and understanding in getting the work we needed completed on time! Tyler thoughtfully looked at the project and helped us save money while getting a little more than what we asked for. They cleaned up the areas they worked in and performed some troubleshooting to ensure that everything was working as it should! I trust them wholeheartedly. I would call and/or recommend Simpson Electric anytime."

The average cost to install solar panels is around $26,600, and most homeowners pay between $4,500 and $53,000. Keep in mind that these prices don’t consider the federal investment tax credit (ITC), which can effectively reduce those costs by up to 30%. The price you can expect to pay for solar panel installation depends on the size of the system, where you live, the type and brand of panels, and the labor costs. Get price quotes from at least three solar companies in your area to find the best deal.
In most states, solar installers need to be licensed and insured as solar professionals, although some states don’t have specific requirements for installers. You can use our state licensing tool to check if an installer you’re considering hiring holds the proper licensing. No matter where you live, a member of your solar panel installation company must be a certified electrician to connect your panels to your home and the electric grid.
There are a few qualifying questions you should ask a local solar panel company before hiring them:
Will you handle permits for the installation?
Does your total price include the equipment and labor?
How long do you expect the installation process to take?
What kind of workmanship warranty do you include with your installations?
Who should I contact if I have a problem with my system after installation?
Do you install the panels or outsource the work to third parties?
Will you file for solar incentives for me?
In most cases, yes, solar panels are well worth the investment. Going solar with your home’s energy is expensive, but, in most states, the panels will pay for themselves by reducing your electric bills. Solar panels don’t produce greenhouse gasses or other pollutants, meaning you can feel good about using this renewable energy source to power your home. Plus, installing solar panels can boost your home value, helping your profit off your next home sale.
Yes, solar panel installation will require permits. The required permits will depend on where you live, as some states and cities have solar-specific permits, while others only require electrical permits to connect to the grid. In either case, it’s best to hire a reputable solar installer in your area, as a representative should handle all of the necessary permitting for you and will include the cost of the permits in your initial solar estimate.
