Seth was contracted to put in my ground mount solar installation. The installation was a disaster from day one. they did not survey before digging resulting in a severed internet line that was just left for me to fix. This happened repeatedly as the line was actually cut 6 times on multiple days. He does not know how to properly dig a trench and dig not dig to proper depth. this resulted in a second trench having to be dug to finish the installation to contract. Seth then skipped out on the second trench dig and never completed it blaming the solar management company. He lies directly to your face and over the phone about time schedules and what he promises and is contracted to do. Highly do not recommend!!! His quality of work was horrendous. my back yard was unfinished and he still managed to leave the site destroyed and much worse then it was when he arrived.
