Adding solar panels is one of the safest and smartest investments you can make for your home! Top solar panel manufacturers give you even more peace of mind by offering solar performance guarantees and warranties. Solar panels, and the parts that make up the rest of the system, are designed to last for decades.
Here at Main Street Solar, we're honored when our customers take the time to send us a note after we've installed solar at their place. Below are three of our favorite notes. Michelle and I want to thank Ben and his team for their hard work installing the solar panels on our home last week. They were professionally installed and they even went so far as to adjust the panel arrangement in order to maximize the solar generating capability.
Why go solar? Paying the electric company is not a pleasant experience when the cost only grows over time. Don't waste your hard earned money on electricity when you can cut that expense now and generate your own clean free energy! Most utilities force heavy electricity consumers to pay at a higher rate than "baseline" consumers.
Net metering allows utility customers to generate their own electricity cleanly and efficiently. During the day, most solar customers produce more electricity than they consume; net metering allows them to export that power to the grid for credits and reduce their future electric bills. Net metering is a billing mechanism that credits solar energy system owners for the electricity they add to the grid.
Along with net metering, the Federal solar tax credit is the main incentive available for homeowners who get solar in Virginia. The solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is a 30 percent tax credit for solar systems on residential and commercial eligible properties which have commenced construction through 2019.

Called and emailed for the estimate. I was a serious solar customer. Gave me runaround for a month for on-ground installation. Never respond without my email asking for the response. I am glad that I found this attitude before hiring. Imagine what would have happened after the installation. Really bad customer service. They should have told me in the beginning that they had no interest.

Main Street solar installed solar panels on my roof almost 4 years ago. My electric bill for my house has averaged $9.50 a month since the installation. I’ve been very pleased with my experience with Main Street Solar. The installation was very smooth and if I remember correctly took about 2 days. The installation crew was very knowledgeable and very efficient.
The county building inspector okayed their work and had no criticism at all. Appalachian Power’s inspector also was pleased with the installation.
I’m looking forward to talking to Main Street Solar in the near future when battery

I met with the crew of Main Street Solar in mid October 2016. I explained my desire to go solar. They listened to all my questions and concerns, and addressed each one. They even gave me some helpful suggestions on where I can improve on my idea. Our plan was to produce an estimated 98% of energy required to run my home. With some changes on their end, they were able to add an extra solar panel on my home and get me a little over the 100% mark with no increase in cost! The installers were polite and professional. The inspector could not get over how well the installation looked. Very professional
