We highly recommend Orange solar if you are looking into solar. Justin answered all my questions and listened to exactly what we wanted. We had several other solar companies give us bids but none of them really wanted to build a ground mount, which was my preference. The install timeline and build were fast and we were informed through the entire process.

Wonderful, wonderful! Justin was patient & kind answering all of my questions. Also Orange Solar did half of my panels on a ground mount and the other half on the roof which is what I wanted. Orange Solar's work was completed in a timely manner. Again I can't say enough how helpful Justin has been. Thank you!
