Zach Mahoney on Southern Solar

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Southern Solar, and especially with Matt Burrier. From the very beginning, Matt went well above and beyond what I expected from a solar installer. He provided a clear and realistic installation timeframe and then worked nights and weekends to make sure everything stayed on track.

Matt personally ensured my insulation work was completed on time so the system could be installed before the federal tax rebate deadline, which made a significant financial difference for my family. That level of commitment is rare and speaks volumes about how seriously he takes his customers.

What really set Matt and Southern Solar apart was the attention to detail and advocacy throughout the entire process. Matt handled all of the paperwork flawlessly and made sure the system was designed to maximize capacity so it could fully support my home’s electrical needs. This includes running air conditioning during peak summer months and charging three electric vehicles without issue.

It is hard to find someone who combines technical expertise, work ethic, and genuine customer advocacy the way Matt does. If you are considering solar and want a company that will treat your project like it is their own and ensure nothing is left on the table, I highly recommend Southern Solar and Matt Burrier.

Frank on Southern Solar

I couldn't be happier with my install by Southern Solar. Korab did an excellent job of educating me on solar, and many different facets including SRECs, pros and cons of battery storage, and net metering. Garfield and the installation team were incredibly professional, and even discovered a rodent issue when doing the electrical work, which they brought to my prompt attention.

Best experience we have ever had with a building contractor. Korab was a highly informative salesman, explained everything from first to last, and everything he told us has proven out so far in the company's work and its final product.
