Report
We've been extremely pleased with the new solar energy system we had installed by Star Solar.
Mr. Nudd is professional, friendly, highly competent and consciousness.
Mr. Nudd kept us informed about the status and progress of our system and was happy to answer all of our questions. When there was a problem with two of the inverters from the supplier, Mr. Nudd was diligent about working until the problem was solved. Most importantly, the system is working as expected. We feel great about the money we will save over time, the improved value to our home and contributing to a better environment
