Dave was amazing to work with. He walked me through everything. Answered all my questions. They keep you updated every step of the way. From beginning to end. Don’t hesitate to give him a call if you’re thinking of going solar.

I am very pleased with the work that Unlimited Solar completed on installing my new solar panels. Dave and Dan were very knowledgeable and were there to assist throughout the process and still available even afterwards. Great company…Great Service!

I'm sure that over the past few years, we have all seen different solar panel providers coming to our doors to try and get us to go solar. That happened with me. The first one that came out was from Ion Solar, but I wasn't as thrilled about them. They were too pushy, and they are also a national company, so they won't necessarily be tied to our area for years to come.

Fast forward a little over a year later. One afternoon, I had two salespeople come to my door asking about my interest in solar. I had been interested at that time, so I talked with them. They were from Unlimited Solar. I did hear them out, and even though I was interested, the cost estimate was a bit of a shock, so I didn’t pull the trigger on the project at that time. They asked if I was willing to have a sit down with them to go over more of the details, and I took them up on it, and it was scheduled for the following day. They didn’t come the following day, but instead, the VP of Sales, Ray Kindley came instead. We had a great conversation that day, and in the end, I decided to go ahead and pull the trigger on going solar (this was around the end of April 2022). They work with GoodLeap for financing, and I was able to get a very low rate of 1.99%. When I asked about the power bank, he said it would add an additional 3 to 6 months for the approval process. Instead, he offered me a gas/propane generator instead at no added cost.

It takes a while once the process gets started. The first step is that they have an inspection of the electrical panel, roof, and such to make sure it can be supported. Then, a site survey is conducted, so they use that to get plans drawn up to be approved by the city. The next steps are the longest parts of the process, as it comes to getting all the various approvals to do the solar install (city, electric company, and so on). During this process, Ray and his staff at Unlimited Solar kept me in the loop on the progression through the process.

As the fall season came, it was finally time to have the solar panels installed. The installation occurred on August 16, 2022. They were very thorough throughout the installation. They were aware of keeping things safe as they worked on it. There were a few times I had to go out for something, and they were really good about making sure everyone was safe when coming or going. The installation itself only took the one day. They did come back a few weeks later to take care of a few other things before the final inspections would take place. After that was completed, it was just a waiting game again for those final approvals from the city and Dominion Energy (including a meter change to track energy in and energy back out to the grid). At the beginning of October, the panels were turned on, but not sent to the grid until a week or so later when the final approval from Dominion Energy came through.

I know a big question for everyone is how has going solar affected my electric bill. I wanted to share what it would have been like December through February (meteorological winter) since that is the time for the least amount of sunlight. Setting the same usage from 2022 and applying it to 2021 to give an apples-to-apples comparison. On average, if Dec 2021 – Feb 2022 had the same energy usage as Dec 2022 – Feb 2023, the average monthly costs were $86.75 and $44.14 respectively, which equates to an average of a 49% decrease in the electric bill.

Overall, I am glad that I went solar. I am already seeing the returns in the sense that the electric bill is much lower now, and that when I pay the monthly financing payment along with that electric bill, the total amount is still lower than what I was paying for electricity before going solar. If you are thinking about or looking into doing solar on your home, I would totally take that a serious consideration. They are very open and transparent. If you do, make sure to reach out to Ray Kindley and Unlimited Solar as I highly recommend them. It’s great to be able to work with a company that is local.

Amazing local company. My installation was done ahead of schedule, and each step of the install was well communicated to me. Very clean installation and exceeded my expectations. From the owner to the installers, everyone was very professional and curtious. Even after the installation, the company continues to ensure we are happy and well taken care of.

Dave and his team did a great job of explaining how our solar energy system would be installed and what to expect once it was operational. The installation team took very good care of our home and property. As of this review our system has been producing electricity for seven months, and over that term we are nearing the “net-zero” mark for usage. Because it was installed in late summer, we knew it would take a while before our electricity usage was consistently less than panel array output. Over the past four weeks the system’s output has exceeded our usage by nearly 125 kWh per week, a pace consistent with moderate temperatures and increased daylight hours. I was somewhat skeptical of solar energy prior to meeting with Dave, but he did a super job of explaining the benefits and I’m now convinced it was a good move. If you’re considering a solar panel installation, I would recommend Unlimited Solar.
