I agree with one of the other reviewers if I could give them 10 stars I would. From the initial visit by Damien through to the final inspection and turning on the system A&R has been great to work with. Very knowledgeable staff who were willing to go above and beyond to get our system installed in time to receive a state incentive. We feel very fortunate to have found them.<br /><br />Damien was great to work with in the beginning as we had many questions and requested a few different quotes to see how those options would work out for our finances and future home plans. He was responsive to everything we threw his way and responded quickly. Once we knew that our install date would put us well within a new incentive deadline we signed the contract. That put our file in motion and everything else was seamless, including working with the bank.<br /><br />The production guarantee really is what helped us make our final decision. Companies can tell you anything they want about what your panels and home positioning can produce. A&R guarantees that production. This means that their quote is something that you can actually rely on and factor into your overall financial plan.<br /><br />We had two other contractors come out to the house and give us quotes and both of the other companies didn't even walk around and evaluate our roof or space. They offered no guarantee for the quoted power they were giving us at almost double the cost.<br /><br />Another really great thing about A&R and this project was that we added an additional electrical request to our bid to get our shop power increased. They added it on at a great price and the work was included in our project scope and completed at the same time as the overall project with all inspections up to standards.<br /><br />One additional note about the bank we used, PSCCU, they only work with a handful of contractors in the state when it comes to solar projects. They have certain requirements in place to protect homeowners. A&R is one of their recommended contractors.
