Independent.
By design.

Alex doesn't take brokerage commissions. He doesn't sell you the panels a manufacturer paid him to recommend. He runs the numbers, picks the hardware that matches your roof, and stands behind every install.

Alex helped me replace my roof with a top-of-the-line GAF HDZ system, new siding, and solar — managed permits, scheduling, and inspections start to finish. The workmanship is excellent and the system has already lowered my bill.

Alex helped me go solar in Brentwood. I don't worry about my PSEG bill going up anymore. I was scared to go solar — Alex and his team made it make sense.

Alex helped me go solar back in 2021, and he's still a phone call or text away whenever I have a question. Three years in and I'm still happy with the work — that's rare.

Six steps.
From zip code to PTO.

  2. 02

    Site visit

    45-minute walkthrough using satellite-based mapping software — roof orientation, panel scope, electrical run. No drone required.

  3. 03

    Custom design

    System layout + production estimate + financing options + all applicable incentives modeled, side-by-side.

  4. 04

    Permits + interconnect

    We pull permits, file interconnection, handle the engineering stamps. Town of Hempstead and Oyster Bay typically under 60 days.

  5. 05

    Install

    One day on the roof for most systems. Bundle projects run roof day one, solar day two. Electrical panel upgrades may extend the schedule if utility involvement is needed.

  6. 06

    PTO + monitoring

    Final inspection, utility PTO, production monitoring via Enphase Enlighten or Tesla app — on your phone the same day.

FAQ

The questions
we keep getting.

What does it cost up front?

$0 down with our standard financing (650+ credit). Current state, utility, and financing incentives are modeled on your proposal before you sign anything. Most homeowners with an $80+ monthly bill can review a cash-flow path before committing.

Will my roof need to be replaced first?

If your shingles have 5+ years left, panels go up directly. If not, we replace the roof first — usually with the GAF HDZ — and bundle the labor so you only pay the differential. For flat roofs, we need 10+ years of roof life remaining.

How long until panels are producing?

Typical timeline from signed agreement to permission-to-operate is 6–10 weeks. Bottleneck is utility interconnection (PSEG / Con Edison), not us. We file early and chase weekly.

What incentives stack in New York?

Residential incentives now need to be verified by install date, utility, property type, and tax eligibility. EnergiSense models applicable New York credits, utility net-metering rules, and any borough-specific programs on your proposal before you sign.

What happens if a panel fails?

25-year production warranty (92% at year 25), 12-year product warranty, 12-year inverter warranty, 10-year workmanship warranty. Alex is a phone call or text away if anything goes wrong.

Will you sell my data?

No. We are not a lead aggregator. Your information goes to Alex, period. No third-party CRM passes, no resold data, no aggressive call campaigns.

Which solar panels do you install?

Premium tier-1 only — Q-Cell, REC, Trina, Hyundai, SEG, and Canadian Solar. Every panel is 430–445W all-black mono-PERC. Pairs with Enphase microinverters or a Tesla Powerwall 3 (battery + inverter combo). For storage we install Tesla Powerwall 3 or Enphase IQ Battery 5P (battery is not available on NYC borough installs). We don't carry a value tier — only equipment that's still producing 92% at year 25.
