Customer Reviews

MDB

From start to finish of our solar project Mike was always available to provide honest answers and advice - and - to act as a valuable liason with the installer. Mike kept his eye on the project the whole way. He is also a great guy. We are very happy with our decision to go solar.

The entire process from my first contact with Mike was great! He took the time to thoroughly explain things & while working with Unique Salgado made the entire process seamless. From start to finish Mike & Unique handled everything. The installation crew were wonderful & National Grid for their part worked perfectly too. I highly recommend Mike & PlugPV. ??
