Top of the Class

Prior to contacting Green Street we were dealing with another company. It took the other company over three months to give us the estimated cost. They did not provide the DE State portion nor did they break down the loan and how the tax credit would work. We called Green Street Solar and Russell Pfaller made an appointment to visit us two days later. His presentation was clear and broken down so we could totally understand it. Russell took the time to answer all of our questions and gave us a time line when each step would occur. We received all of our documents electronically.

So happy

We are so happy with our solar panels from Green Street Solar! Russell walked us through the whole process and made filling out the forms very easy. The panels were installed in a timely manner and work and look great. We definitely recommend going to Green Street Solar for your solar needs!

Very professional and cost-effective

We got 3 bids, and Green Street Solar was lowest, and had references to match the other bidders. Russell provided the estimate, was patient and clear in explaining the technology, pricing, and SREC (solar renewable energy credit) market, and came back for the "commissioning" of the system. He and the crew are trustworthy, take pride in their work, and get the job done quickly and well. There was a slight bowing in our array, due to the irregularity in our roof, and Russell was able to level it out so that, with the PV panels in place, the roof looks better than it did before. Haleigh is helpful in taking care of all the permitting and dealings with DEC; she also takes care of applying for the SREC auction, and the $2500 grant that's available in DE. All in all, an excellent experience - good workmanship, responsive, strong customer service ethic, good people, great value.

Fantastic experience here in RBYCC

This is my second time working with Green Street Solar to get solar panels. They installed panels on my last house and did such a great job that I knew I would work with them again if I moved. So, when I did move, they were one of my first calls. As before, they handled everything and made the process super easy. Russell and Haleigh were my two main contacts at Green Street, and they are both so professional and knowledgeable, it is a pleasure to deal with them. I have done a lot of house flips over the years, and this contractor is exceptional. I love not having an electric bill, and based on the electric savings I've experienced, the whole system will pay for itself in less than 5 years. Pro tip: Consider getting critter guards for your solar array as part of the initial installation. I had a family of pigeons nest under the panels at my first home about 3 years after installation. Made a real mess of the front of my house until I had Green Street come out again and install critter guards on that system. When I was getting the panels for this new house, I just had them put the guards on from day 1. That said, you may also want to just wait and see if you have a problem. Friends of mine had their system installed 10(?) years ago and have never had an issue. It's not an expensive add-on when you do it as part of the initial installation though.

Positive Experience

Green Street Solar was an all around, positive experience... Russell specified the system and was on the installation as well... Knowledgeable & took the time to thoroughly explain and respond to questions... They provided a straightforward, no nonsense proposal, without some of the gimmicks that other suppliers had proposed. Competitive pricing, superior installation technique, and timely installation, handling all of the paperwork with the state, as well as the utility. Nice finish work on the installation.

Excellent Solar Company

Green Street Solar took the time to walk me thru all the ins and outs of this system. I wanted to put on new shingles prior to putting on the solar panels and they worked with me on timing. As soon as the shingles were on they came about 2 days later and had the whole project completed in 2 days (42 panels). They were neat and cleaned up at the end of each day. If you didn't know to look for the panels you wouldn't notice them. They blended in perfectly. The system quality was awesome - they used the best. They explained the functioning of the system before leaving. Then they came back for a detailed explanation. I couldn't be happier with Green Street Solar. The energy savings are all they said it would be.

Our experience with our roof solar cell installation using Green

We started by getting four independent quotes from roof installers and solar cell installers. Not only was Green Street Solar the lowest quote, but they also excel in fast and timely responses to our questions. They also recommended a roofing contractor that they have worked with in the past. We asked for and got a list of their previous installs in our area, all of which we visited, and all had excellent experiences with Green Street Solar. Russell and Haleigh truly provided great services, and our solar cells were operating within a month or so in the summer, just in time catch all those solar irradiances! We recommend this company highly.

Great Job

Being long time home owner and home improvement contractor I have enough experience to know what is good and what is bad. They came out on schedule, finished the job on schedule, cleaned up all debris, and i was given great instructions on details and operation.

Extremely Pleased

We were very pleased with the concept of purchasing our system out right instead of the leasing option some companies offer. Although it does require more money upfront it is a much better deal all around. Green Street is an amazing company to work with. Russell came out and answered all our questions. He designed a system based on our needs and available space and worked with us each step of the way. The installation people were very professional as well and the job was completed very quickly. We have had the system for a little over 6 months and it's working well. We are excited to see what the summer months will produce!

Great Experience!

Before selecting my solar provider I did research and requested proposals from two companies. One a nationally known provider and the other was Green Street Solar, a local provider. Having received two proposals, I was immediately impressed with Green Street Solar. Its proposal was more understandable and addressed all the issues that had been discussed up front with the salesman. It was an easy decision to accept the Green Street proposal. Once I accepted, Green Street went out of its way to work with me on HOA approval issues, the Inspection process, and electric company contact and final Authorization to Operate. The installation itself was quick, efficient, and they went out of their way to accommodate my panel and meter locations. The job was professional, and looks and works great! After installation and approval there was a mix up with the electric company not recognizing the solar power generation for two months. Once I figured this out through the electric company billing department, and couldn't get through to its solar energy department, I contacted Haleigh at Green Street and she moved heaven and earth to get someone from the electric company to return my calls. They did so within 24 hours and resolved the operation error by going back to the date the Authorization to Operate was issued to me and correcting the billing issues with a resultant credit in my favor. Notwithstanding the glitch with the electric company, I am a very happy with being a solar energy generator, and am a satisfied Green Street Solar customer for life!

Response from Green Street Solar

Green Street Solar is definitely an impressive company and one that I look forward to working with on my home energy generation project.

No hassle, helpful and very friendly

My experience purchasing and having a 8.7kW grid tied system installed by from Green Street Solar was close to perfect! Price: Worth every penny; significantly less than big-box competition. Made it zero effort to get Delaware state grants for renewable energy, further reducing the cost. Customer service: Always friendly and always helpful. I asked them a LOT of technical questions and I always got technical answers. Documentation was provided along with each question helped tremendously in the decision making process. Focused on building the best solution for my needs. NEVER tried to upsell. Installation: Green Street Solar worked with me as I navigated challenges with my HOA review. Rescheduling the install date was a proactive discussion. Technicians were friendly and also answered all of my questions with a high level of technical detail. They did a fantastic job cleaning up my basement after installing the inverter. They cleaned up well outside, but I found a few small pieces of plastic that missed their eye, so I only gave them 4 stars in this category. Post Installation: I was provided with electronic copies of all project based documentation, from financials to hardware to solar site survey. The project manager spent an hour teaching me how to use the monitoring software and taught me how to manage configuration in the future. He also offered to help walk me through the renewable energy credit auctioning process in the following year. I've had at least one follow-up question a month after install and it was answered promptly. This level of continued support is highly valued. It's not fair to say Green Street Solar is the best because I haven't gone through the full process with all their competition, but I can say that I'm extremely satisfied with the quality of their work and attention to detail based on my experience. I definitely recommend them to anyone considering a solar install in the Delaware area. -Ryan W.

Russell Pfaller and the installation team were extremely polite and professional. The whole process was easy. I spoke with one other company, but the process was long and complicated and no one from that company ever met me in person. I was fortunate to have seen an article about solar and Green Street Solar's activity in this area was featured.

Overall, I am very happy with the products, performance, and support from Green Street Solar. It has been nearly 9 months and I will be close to a zero energy bill for the year. Russell was a class act with his professionalism and knowledge, and He was upfront with costs, answers to my expectations and performance questions, which I've found to be accurate. Great post-installation support as well. Highly recommend!
