Report
I turned to MSSI for all steps of installing a ground-mounted solar array. From beginning to end (and beyond--they are still making sure that everything is working as it should and that I'm getting the various credits that I am due), the whole team has been wonderful. I feel very fortunate to have found Colette and her colleagues. I recommend them without reservation.

I did not initiate a solar project due to current shading on my roof, but my ongoing correspondence with Emily at MSSI to determine whether anything was feasible or workable, from an economic or environmental perspective, demonstrated that MSSI is a very thoughtful and thorough company that acts with integrity and transparency - which is not always a given in this industry. From my experience, MSSI is a data-driven, fully transparent, honest, and credible company. If my roof shading one day changes (I'm never inclined to cut trees - but if I happen to lose one), I'd go with MSSI in a heartbeat

Really well. Although MSSI was more expensive than the other 3 companies from whom we received quotes, the extra money was more than worth it given their willingness to walk us through the process and respond to our many questions. Although I think I'm pretty well educated, I would highly recommend that a potential solar customer work with MSSI and pay the extra money--it'll save time and frustration in the long-run. An additional perk is that this is a woman-owned, US military veteran-owned company.

Although I did not end up going with MSSI for my solar project, I did want to leave a positive review for their customer service during the quote process. I had a lot of questions about the process and the system, and Lizzie patiently answered all of them. The visit from Colette, the owner, was very helpful as she is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced in this field. She brought up certain issues that other companies had not, and checked the structure and electrical of the house herself, which I thought was very thorough. When we asked for adjustments in the quote, MSSI was quick to provide
