We were approached by another solar company who promised us free solar and a new roof at no cost,…read morewhich sounded too good to be true. After talking with friends we reached out to Valley Solar and they explained that there isn't such a thing as 'free solar and roof replacement'. While I think we knew this it was good to hear from the experts. The team walked us through the federal, state and utility incentives and explain in detail how the technology works. We are so glad to have found an honest local company. We have almost a dozen friends, neighbors and family members that have used Valley Solar and all sang their praises - now we know why!

It is unprofessional to speak so badly and make false claims against a competitor. Here's an…read moreexact quote from one rep, Martin. I am omitting the name of the competitor. Up to you if you want to use a company who speaks falsely of other companies. They claim they are the best company in the valley. According to the reviews though, they are not. And BTW, this company never even did a site visit while 2 others did. "We all are scratching our heads as to how XXXXXXX could come up with the inflated production numbers they are showing you on paper. It is known in the industry that their estimates are typically higher than ours or PV2 but this is an exceptionally high estimate given the tree coverage on the property. I understand the allure to proceed with a company showing you the highest production on paper but ultimately if you have 2 other companies telling you you'd need more panels to get close to where Northeast is promising it should be a good sign that it is not our data but theirs that is off. We are sad to see a local company over promising this much to win deals. It is public data (and I am passionate on saving folks from being taken advantage of), so I will share - XXXXXXXX's business is down ~40% this year, perhaps they are desperate to win projects and are resorting to unethical tactics. Valley Solar has grown by 8% this year, one of the only solar companies in the state to grow during the past year which saw a down turnover in solar installations statewide. This system is priced at just $2.96/watt - our average installation cost is $3.84/watt. This is an amazing opportunity to get Valley Solar as your long term solar provider at less than $3/watt! We did not sub out equipment for cheaper options either, you are receiving best in class REC solar panels! On top of this, your system will be monitored by our in-house performance monitoring system 'SunAlert.' I hope you can respect my openness and honesty. I know you will thank us for years to come! I hope to get to work with you on this project. Please let me know if you have any questions and or if you are ready to get rockin' and rollin' with the project.

Very easy to do business with. I spoke to Andrew , the mini-split manager, who organized every detail for us. Our installer was Max. Max did a fantastic job. Max is detailed oriented and meticulous in his manner of installation. Other companies wanted to install the compressor the easy way and set the compressor in a cart on the ground. I didn't want that. Max fastened my compressor to the house foundation on a stainless steel bracket off the ground. I am an auto mechanic by trade and can really appreciate the finished look of a quality installation. I would highly recommend Northeast Solar to anyone that is considering mini-splits. Bob T.

Northeast Solar handled our solar installation this fall. When I first spoke with Justin it was…read morealready mid-August, and the end-of-year deadline for the tax credit meant they had a very tight fall schedule. I appreciated Justin's transparency regarding the time crunch, and the generous 10% discount he offered if the work couldn't be completed in time. As it turned out, the crew had everything installed and interconnected by early November. From permitting to working with the credit union to the final switch flip, they were calm, professional, and efficient. We were well informed every step of the way, and the installation process itself was remarkably chill in terms of commotion and time. Northeast Solar also installed my in-laws system several years ago, and we've all been very pleased with their work.

I have been trying to have someone just come and explain this whole thing again to me. Just to let you know, you will get 2 bills.

The communation from this company is the worst I have ever encountered. The Holyoke Office said they would call me back ASAP, that was March 4th. 3 months now, with absolutely now call backs.

And now that they've started the install I can't cancel. It is going to be a minimum of 1.5 years from signing the paperwork to getting it turned on, and if history is any indication it is probably going to be more like 2 years. This company operates in bad faith, and you should not get mixed up with them for any reason.

Here is a timeline of why I would AVOID this business (most recent clarification re: their higjly inaccurate Houzz website response): *Am extremely dismayed that Steve Silverman has posted on the Houzz website that it was "another Steve" that we had dealt with, hence the lack of professionalism. Nope,, we definitely, 100% dealt w/ Mr. Silverman, he even gave us hos business card after the one visit we had with him on 9/18/2017 (which he claims was never in their system). Speaks volumes that they have to make up an excuse to explain being ghosted, after multiple promises of a followup. Please do your research and consider other more trustworthy and upfront businesses before going to VHI. Very SHADY & UNTRUSTWORTHY. I shall cooy/paste their Houzz reply. *Houzz Reply from VHI*- " Hi there - I sincerely apologize we weren't able to connect with you. I believe the Steve you met with (another Steve, we have 3) is no longer with the company - which is why you haven't heard back. We double checked the system, and no information was added from Sept 18th forward." *Original Google Review* Met w/ Steve on Sept. 18th for a condo reno project. We explained how we waited years to finally be able to start, and we discussed our budget, etc. Never heard back from Steve, weeks, then months after oir initial meeting. I touched base a few times, always in a pleasant manner, to inquire if an intial estimate/timeline could be discussed. Steve had one excuse after another-the most recent (recent being about a month ago) that he was going to a trade show, and would have the info within a week. I still haven't received a phone call. I completely understand things get hectic, and my husbamd and I are extremely patient, friendly, and flexible. However, to completelty blow off a client, is unacceptable and frankly, rude. My rating=Proceed With Caution!
