This company is proof that solar can, will, and has stood the test of time. Michael Shonka has been there and done that for 35 years, and I have yet to even meet another person who's spent that much time harnessing sunlight. Every person I know in the NE/IA region gets a strong recommendation to go solar with this company putting it on your property. Quality work at transparent, affordable pricing. Can't say enough praise
