Started with Louis, the sale Rep. very respectful and explained. The installation was very professional and Dustin Holloman and Billy and the rest of the crew did a fantastic job. They are nice and professional and will give you their honest opinion.

We bought this house last year and this year we had the kitchen redone. In the process the electrician noticed that the dryer vent wasnt connected. I looked up who installed the roof and found that Covenant did it in 2017. I called them and found them very welling to help. A tech came out, found the wrong vent had been installed and came back and installed the correct one.

Worked with Chris as a rep and Alexis and both were great and responsive.Im giving two stars as I feel I was a bit deceived by the lack of mention of the energy credits resetting on June 1st. The sales pitch was you have banked energy credits with Duke for the hot summer months, but Im still getting $75 energy bills. Its a state law, so not necessarily Covenants fault it exists, but there was definitely no mention of it.

Had a great experience using Covenant Solar for installation of a Tesla Wall Charger and additional exterior outlet. Work was done on schedule with field crew being very personable. Would work with them again.

They are very professional and helpful all the way from signing contract to helping federal rebate and Duke rebate process. I would definitely recommend them. Very reasonable pricing and they understand your needs and suggest whats best for your home.

We recently had Sun Dollar install a fairly large system on our home. From start to finish it was painless and I am 100% satisfied with everything. Dan the owner is a professional and has fantastic customer service. The crews that did the job were polite, prompt, and worked hard to minimize the impact on my schedule. My neighbor ended up choosing Sun Dollar after seeing my install and hearing nothing but positive compliments from me.

We were approached by Sun Dollar Energy LLC (company which may have turned into Covenant Solar Tech or a partner- I still didnt get information about this). All that was advertised by the rep sounded amazing. Our family decided to jump on the opportunity in December 2020. From that point, I sensed and have been feeling a disconnect between the sales rep and what he originally advertised.Panel installation was delayed.Duke Rebate is not guaranteed and a tedious process. We went to 2 phases of being added to the waitlist.Emails are not answered in a timely fashion.Lastly, we referred 1 particular individual. They got their referral money and here we are several months later waiting on our referral money. I have contacted Alexis on several occasions about this and there has not been any follow up.The original rep who sold us the system has stopped responding. Thats been a point of frustration. Alexis has not responded either.Im still patient but these interactions have left me unimpressed. Hoping future customers do not have to deal with this frustration.

I had an awesome experience with Covenant Solar. They installed a ChargePoint EV charger in my garage. They took time to listen to my needs and installed the charger in the best place for my goals. They cleaned up afterwards and were highly professional.

I was blessed to work at Sun Dollar Energy for the last 5+ years. Dan was a phenomenal owner that truly cared about every employee that worked for him. The entire Sun Dollar team is well trained and experienced with a variety of products. While working with Sun Dollar I sold several different brands of panels, inverters, and battery back up systems.A few weeks ago I had the team install a new solar system for me and my family. After many years working in the industry it felt good to be able to make the investment and go solar! The team handled everything for me: permits, electrical plan, inspections, and of course turnkey installation.After many months of planning I decided to follow dreams to start a new business. Though this business is in a different industry I will always be thankful for what I’ve learned in the solar industry.Thank you Sun Dollar team for my installation! And future customers who might be reading this... Stop thinking about it and go solar!!!

We had solar panels installed last year, and couldnt be happier with sun dollar. It was clear they were very good at what they do, and also felt very strongly about the importance of alternative energy. It felt less like dealing with a company, and more like dealing with a family dedicated to providing exceptional service and helping the environment. Everyone was courteous and efficient.

SunDollarEnergy was the 3rd company I’ve talked about solar panels. Everybody were trying to sell the system fast, Micha made me want to buy the system from them! No pressure what so ever. Signed the contract in late October2017, but HOA communications were very slow, Micha did a good job communicating with them, I’ve collected the signatures from 10 neighbors, and when they finally approved, guys were here in 2 days and have completed the project in 3days. Duke-energy has installed the bi-meter today, so I will have to add to this review when I get the full picture in 3-6 month.No money out of pocket, different finance options available to meet your budget.Got 7.5kw system with 25 panels on my roofLocated here in Raleigh, NC on BUSTED ROCK TRL, if anybody would like to check it out, please stop by!

Sun Dollar Energy installed a 32 panel, 10 kw solar system on my house. From the first meeting with the salesperson (Micah), the office coordinator (Alexis), the site review (Brandon), the engineer that designed the system (Greg) and the owner (Dan)...All have been friendly, helpful, professional and knowledgeable. They have helped me through the early days while I was getting used to the system, answering questions, responding to my texts and phone calls (even on the weekends). Outstanding customer service! Very professional installation! Excellent follow-up! The passion for their customers shows in all they do! If you want to explore solar, there is only one company that I would recommend and that is Sun Dollar Energy.

Sun Dollar not only has great customer service and professional installation, but they have high quality products for a reasonable price. They were very honest every step of the process, and did not try to make it sound better than it actually is. And it is GREAT. Well done Sun Dollar!

The previous owners of our house had solar panels installed by Sun Dollar Energy. The panels have worked great the past few years and continue to provide enough energy to the grid to nearly zero out our electricity bill most months. Dan and his team have been professional, responsive, and courteous in all aspects of the services theyve provided us, from helping with the initial interconnect request to providing service checks when necessary. Theyve also been fair and reasonable in pricing.

We chose Sun Dollar after getting three quotes and speaking with 3 salesmen. Aside from being a couple thousand dollars cheaper, what impressed me was the salesman was the owner, Dan Lezama. This wouldnt be a case of a salesman promising one thing and then an anonymous crew delivering another. The other two guys seemed to know their stuff, but theres nothing like dealing with the owner to guarantee performance. I knew the buck would stop with Dan. After doing some due diligence, I knew Sun Dollar would do the job for us. Solar is no small undertaking. There are permits, interconnect agreements, insurance requirements, etc. Dan made it simple. He handled all of the paperwork and scheduled all of the inspections. Dans crew was awesome. They were on time, clean and efficient. More often than not, Dan was onsite supervising everything. When we ran into surprises (no neutral wire in attic sub-panel?!), Dan explained the options and we made an appropriate decision. 39 panels later, were now a power producer. We did not opt for an off-grid system (another ~$20K) but may look at that in the future. Teslas Powerwall 2.0 is interesting, but too new to seriously consider unless there are new incentives or Mr. Musk is looking for evaluation sites. Were expecting the system to pay for itself in roughly 10 years, but from what Ive read, it should have already added roughly the cost of the system to the value of the home. Would highly recommend Sun Dollar and would definitely use them again.

Dan asked me to give a review, here goes. Just a word about me, I have been an advocate for Green Energy since the early 70s. I wrote papers on it in high school and college. I have worked construction for more than 40 years. We went with Sun Dollar because we wanted a family environment not a business thing. Turns out that was a huge plus. We started running into little hiccups right away, mostly my fault. Dan contacted me immediately and calmed me down and thats how the process went. Towards the end of the project it was a running joke between Billy and I, wont want it to be easy now. The crew. I think at one point or the other I met all the installers, everyone was a pleasure to work with. I would have been glad to have any of them work for me over the years. Crew leader Billy was a blessing, had the answers to all my questions and his attention to detail was great. He could run a crew for me anytime. Two of them graduated from APP State with degrees in Sustainable Energy so it was fun to see them get there hands dirty. Im sure that Greg is tickled to death to have this job done and me off his back. Always enjoyed talking with Alexis, thanks for all the updates. From start to finish the ATTENTION TO DETAIL was amazing. We are currently producing at least 75% of all the power we are using and with the battery backup system we know we can weather any storm. We are so grateful for everyone we worked with at Sun Dollar that thanks doesnt even come close. Thanks. Could not be happier. Pat and Regena.

Sun Dollar Energy installed a 10kW system on my home. The sales guy Micha was patient and didn’t try to over sell us. The crew was very courteous and cleaned up after themselves. The owner came out and answered all of my questions. I love the way the system looks! Our electric bill last month was only $15! We are very satisfied and would highly recommend Sun Dollar!

When it comes to Solar Panels, there is no such thing as one size fits all. If you attempt to do it all by yourself, you will be overwhelmed by all the choices and options. Choosing Sun Dollar Energy for our solar panel installation was the best choice Ive made all year. Micha, the salesman, is very friendly and will happily answer all your questions. Believe me, I had many and Micha was eager to answer them all. Micha wasnt just there to make the sale, like most salesmen, he continued to be very friendly and helpful even after the deal was sealed. Micha helped us to make the right choices for our needs and wants by educating us on our choices. He changed us from being Solar Stupid to Solar Smart. Thank you Micha for all the patients it took to work with us. Dan, the owner, is very knowledgeable about what he does and he will not only make sure you are nothing but happy with your Solar installation but he will also give you the best price in town. Jarod and Shea, the installers, were very friendly and they even took time to answer all my pesky questions. I was left feeling very comfortable having two installers that are very knowledgeable about solar energy and they both enjoy what they do. I was so excited to see in just two (2) business days after the installation was complete, Duke Energy installed by bi-directional meter. The whole experience with Sun Dollar Energy was great from start to finish. I would recommend that anyone interested in a PV System, not to make a choice without talking to Sun Dollar Energy first.

Dan, Micha and the team did a great turnkey job at a very competitive price!We are informed consumers and know what we want. We shopped several well-known installers and based on price point, materials, knowledge and availability Sun Dollar Energy convinced us they were the best of all vendors we surveyed. They did not let us down!First off, there is a lot of information to digest when wanting to go solar, it’s like drinking from a fire hose! However, after a consult with Micha to help us see what our options were (and a lot of follow up questions!) we felt a lot better about what we were getting into. The guys helped us understand common solar myths and things like “off grid”, “grid tied”, “net metering” etc. When we were done we had a good feel as to exactly how much we would spend and the time we will need to recover our costs.Once we signed the contract they worked with our somewhat challenging HOA. We were the 1st to request a solar roof so there was a lot of help needed to set precedent and get approval to move forward, but after wading through the HOA bureaucracy (during the Christmas holiday, too!) we were set to start.Their team quickly installed a 11.4 KWh system in less than a week that really looks great, they even replaced a faulty breaker for our air conditioner at no additional cost (Thanks Dan!). They also expedited our Duke energy rebate on our behalf!Its also important to consider after the job was done they were quick to respond to concerns and technical tweaks, we needed an additional part because we live in a 4 G dead spot, Dans team took care of it, no additional cost to us! All of my emails and request were returned within hours.Basically, it couldn’t have been an easier, Sun Dollar Energy did a super job, they handled all the details, kept us informed, dealt with our HOA, filed the Duke rebate application, everything with great speed, professionalism and all at a very competitive price point and no surprises!I highly recommend you check out Sun Dollar Energy before you start a solar project! Thanks guys!

I had a great experience with Sun Dollar Energy installing solar panels on my house. They have much better prices than the out of state, door-to-door sales companies. They were also great with takedown and re-installation when I had to get my roof replaced.

If you are considering solar power in NC, you must contact Sun Dollar Energy. They are a local company that will guide you through the entire process of solar panel installation/management. If you ever have a question, you call a NC number and talk to a knowledgeable professional, often times the owner, Dan. The quote was very competitive, and the installation a breeze. I recommend Sun Dollar to anyone interested in solar panel systems.

From Price through installation and even helping with the rebate, Sun Dollar Energy was wonderful. They were $9500 less for the exact same solar package from other providers. They came on the day of installation as they promised. They helped me get the Duke power rebate. The best part of this whole process is that I am averaging $200 less per month on my power bills. Thanks to all of the wonderful folks at Sun Dollar

Dan and his team from Sun Dollar are the best. They just installed a 20kw system at my home and it is fantastic. I have been waiting 10 years for this and they made it possible and everything so easy. The price great and the workmanship was impeccable. My wife and I will be recommending them to all of our friends. If you are in the market for solar they are the ones you should call. Thank you Dan and your team.

I decided to put solar panels on my home earlier this year. I did a lot of research and shopped around with different installers. I was very close to giving my business to another company, but Micha really sold me on why Sun Dollar was a step above the rest. Throughout the process, Micha kept me informed and made everything very smooth, particularly with the HOA approval process (if it applies to you). Dan (the owner) was also very much involved and hands on, which is not something you will find with most other companies.Ive now had the panels installed for 3 months and am very pleased with how they have been operating, and with the clean energy they have been producing for me. I experienced a slight issue with the wireless communication to my monitoring device early on, and Dan was very responsive and contacted the right people to get the issue resolved quickly.Overall, I am very pleased with my solar panels, and am glad that I chose Sun Dollar Energy to install my system. There are a lot of options out there, but I believe Sun Dollar separates themselves from the rest of the field with their attentiveness, quality of work, and personalized touch. Not only that, they are very cost competitive. I would highly recommend them for your solar project.

Sun Dollar Energy installed my solar summer 2019. They walked me through cost and layout of panels; the job was completed quickly and well; and the panels are functioning marvelously.They also came out to my house when I thought I had squirrels on my roof without charge, and when I later bought a squirrel guard (which I highly recommend) the employee offered to cut a few branches off a tree that was near the roof.More importantly, they have been fantastic with customer service, answering both texts and emails without delay and making sure all my questions were answered. I love that they are local, quick to respond to issues, and always willing to help.I cannot recommend them enough. Dan and his team have taken done a fantastic job on my house, and I would do business with them again.

Were very happy with our recently-installed PV system. Sun Dollar Energy was a good choice after we thoroughly researched several other options in the area. The owner Dan and his team are very hardworking and knowledgeable. They promptly addressed any questions we had and were easy and straightforward to work with throughout the process. They made everything easy, and the system is now working as promised. Id highly recommend them (and solar) to anyone in the area.

We are extremely satisfied with our experience with Sun Dollar Energy. We had estimates from 6 solar companies, and Sun Dollar came in with the best equipment and best pricing. The owner, salesman, and engineering team are all very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Most of the employees we met came out of Appalachian States Sustainable Technology program, and they really know their solar tech. The aesthetic all black panels easily passed the HOA board. It was 12 weeks from signing the contract to a 10 kW PV system that generates more energy than we use, even with both ACs running. Sun Dollar handled all the paperwork with the utility connection and county inspector, every detail was taken care of.TL;DR: Using pvwatts.nrel.gov and our prior utility bills, the forecast is an 8 year payback, including the NC utility 60 cents per Watt rebate, and the Fed 30% tax credit, its effectively 50% rebates currently.

Sun Dollar Energy is such a wonderful company to do business with! From Micah for the initial consult to Dan the owner and all of their installation crew, I say thank you for being so outstanding!!

Both Micah and Dan kept me informed and up to date every step of the way. No pressure, thorough, trustworthy and knowledgeable are words that come to mind.

We worked with Sun Dollar last Fall to get our roof top solar panels installed. It was a great experience from start to finish and we are thrilled with the outcome. From Dan the owner, to Micah our sales consultant to the installation crew, the entire team was knowledgeable, patient and pleasant to deal with. Everyone exhibited the highest integrity and attention to detail in all communications and interactions from the initial evaluation and scoping to installation and subsequent follow up. Im also thrilled to report that thanks to the federal energy credit we were able to claim for 2017 and the rebate we recently received from Duke Energy, that weve recovered approximately 50% of the total cost of the project. Dan kept the Duke rebate moving forward for us and were very grateful. With that cost recovery and the energy we are now generating ourselves, this system will pay for itself in just a few years time.

We had a great solar implementation with Dan and his team. Dan met with us to understand our objectives, then laid our a few different options for us, including pricing. There was no pressure to purchase. Dans main objective was to ensure we were making an informed decision, one way or the other.We decided to go ahead with the project and the results have been outstanding. Dan pays very close attention to detail and everything was implemented as promised in a very clean and professional manner. Dan is quite flexible and would always consult with us when he ran into situations where he could do things a few different ways. He was always very open and listened to our thoughts and ideas.Overall, we are extremely pleased with the solar implementation provided by Sun Dollar Energy. Dan delivered exactly what was promised at the quoted price. We would highly recommend that you talk to Dan and his team if you are considering a solar project within their area of coverage. You will not be disappointed with the pricing or the professional implementation.

We had a very good experience with Sun Dollar. We especially appreciated their work ensuring we obtained the Duke rebate. We interviewed four companies and they were the one we chose. If we had it to do over we would choose them again. UPDATE - we had Sun Dollar remove and reinstall our panels when we had to get our roof replaced. Not only was their work top notch, but they even moved two panels to improve our output given the minor changes in our roof. Thanks for the outstanding service - highly recommend!

Review №43

Dan and his crew were fantastic! They were extremely professional and very knowledgeable. I started researching solar panels for my house a few years before I actually had them installed. Every year, I talked with Dan about them but ultimately couldnt quite work them into the budget. Every year, Dan totally understood my situation and was patient and professional. When I finally was able to work it in the budget, Dan came out to my house personally to help me measure and figure out what could fit. My roof wasnt the easiest canvas on which to fit a continuous array of panels, but we came up with a good layout which allowed me to utilize as much roof as possible for the best production.On the installation days, the crew was fantastic! They worked hard and were extremely pleasant and polite. They definitely knew what they were doing! Dan even came out to do a bit of work where he needed as well. They were a well-oiled machine.Im still waiting for (and looking forward to) my first full bill with the bi-directional meter, but so far I love the panels. Theyre producing a lot of electricity and they look great! Thank you Dan, and thank you to the crew for a great experience!-John

I got 4 different estimates on the solar installation I was interested in. I had done a lot of research before having anyone come in as this was a pretty complicated venture for me. What panels should I go with and why? What kind of system should I get, pros and cons of them? Will I get my money back on my investment?Dan was, by far, the most knowledgeable and professional of the 4. He is the owner and has such a vested interest in making sure you know everything before making that important decision.Dan may have a smaller company but its been a long time since Ive seen such attention to detail, professionalism, and thought for the customer as I did with this project.He took care of everything and kept me informed all the way. Even between steps as we were waiting for permits or inspections, Dan would call or email me to make sure I was informed on where the project was at.I couldnt be more pleased with the with the results and how we got there. When completed, Dan came by with a project binder that had every document involved in the project, every letter of correspondence, and detailed pictures of the installation and finished product. I have never, never seen that from any contractor before. VERY impressed.I got all of that and the best price to boot. I can see doing a lot more business with Dan in the future on other solar projects. He feels more like a partner the a contractor.

Working with Dan was a pleasure. He was the first contractor in the triangle area (or even in NC) that offered Dow Powerhouse solar shingles. He was very detail oriented, walked us through all the steps of the project, accepted some modifications, and made sure we were satisfied with the end result. He is business owner who works along with his guys. After the project was completed we got complete very well organized documentation with printed picture documentation.

Every person from this company was informative, professional as well asconsiderate during installation. The panels look great and everything is working well and is state of the art. There was no hidden cost, and the original estimate was exactly what I paid. They passed inspection and when they saw something on our roof that needed attention they fixed it as a courtesy. I have not gone a month to discover the reduction in my electric bill yet, but I watched the meter reverse within 5 minutes of being turned on. That was a big thrill to know we are contributing energy to the grid and doing something good for our earth.

Sun Dollar Energy was great. After we signed our contract we ended up doing some other construction around the house, and they were very patient while we completed that scope to avoid any potential safety hazards. Once that scope was completed they jumped into action. They took care of the rebate paperwork, and the panel array looks fantastic. Most people dont even notice its there until I point it out to them. Thanks to Dan and Sun Dollar Energy!

Sun Dollar is a fantastic local company. I worked closely with Greg Resch, who guided me though the process of installing a solar panel system on the roof of my residence in Carrboro. Greg knows his stuff, and I was impressed by the competence of the entire team. The install process was quick - 2 days - and my wife and I feel that the installation is performing really well. Greg helped us to handle technical issues that arose after the install, related to WiFi monitoring. Sun Dollar is a company that continues to work with you after installation. Greg and Dan also helped us to deal with the Duke Energy rebate situation, where Dukes website/server was overloaded on the application day. Thanks to Sun Dollars persistence, I will be receiving the rebate. I love this company - they are local, hardworking, and smart.

Now that I have been able to fully see the impact of Sun Dollars work - from initial sales and information sharing to installation to comparing the savings to predicted savings I can echo the many other very positive comments on this page. The staff was great at every stage and the product fully met expectations!!I highly recommend going solar if your situation is feasible and Sun Dollar Energy is a great company to help you make the right decision and to build the system right for you.

I would recommend Sun Dollar Energy to anyone who wants to go solar. They charge reasonable price and give professional services from start to end. They finished my solar system in 2 month (in the first month, we just waited for my HOA for the architecture approval). Ive received the confirmation from Duke-energy that my solar rebate will be sent out in 4 weeks. These guys are so great and very helpful. If they can put a tutorial online to help the customer understand and read the new net metering, it would be more helpful. But anyway, their installation is great.

Ive never written a review for anyone, but these guys are just that good. They are honest, responsible, and diligent. We got everything we were promised, from the installation process to the production of the equipment. Highly recommended!

Like many others who have contracted Sun Dollar Energy, we were very satisfied with the level of service they provided. They installed the solar array on our roof in a short amount of time. They were able to get us on the schedule months in advance and actually finished the installation a couple weeks ahead of schedule. Dan is very personable with a high level of knowledge and workmanship. I would highly recommend Dan and his team for any project, large or small. Great work! We hope we can get you out back again in a few years for our next solar project!

Dan and team really came through and delivered.Micha was exceptional on the front end, helping me choose the right system for my home and family and delivering on the price i was looking for. I was out of town when the system was installed and commissioned. They passed all inspections the first go around and got me running before I returned. On top of that they even assisted with the rebate application for Duke. If you are considering solar, definitely give Sun Dollar Energy a call.

We looked into three solar companies, and Dan had the best price by far. Him and his staff were very straightforward, helpful and a pleasure to deal with. Even weeks after the project was done and our checks cleared, he was extremely helpful with questions I had. I highly recommend Dan and Sun Dollar.

From the quote to the install, all my interactions with Dan, Micha, Sam and the rest of the team at Sun Dollar Energy were excellent. Going in, I knew that solar technology is a fairly mature technology these days, but it was a bit of a revelation the extent to which installing it, is by necessity, an effort in customization for each site. I got a number of widely varying bids and Sun Dollar really came up with a great balance of system size, state of the art equipment, and great pricing. And, they followed through with a quality install. There were a couple small quirks to my install, given my older house, including not being able to route the power cables in the usual manner, but they came up with a smart and good looking solution. It was a pleasure working with them!

We used SunDollar to install Solar panels in our house and we could not be more pleased with the company, product and the service offered by this company.Greg is the star engineer behind the entire design. He was patient with all my technical questions, gave me accurate answers and assisted me in selecting the appropriate panels for my home. He is not there to make a sale, but instead extremely vested in making sure that you are an ideal candidate for solar panels and specs the correct panel for you. Greg will also hold your hand through the entire process ensuring that you are well informed of the process and responds very quickly on text/calls. He is a HUGE asset to this companyAlexis is the star co-ordinator with Duke energy and the city of Chapel Hill. She keeps a close tab on permits and meter installation and keeps you informed through the whole process. She is a key component in the Duke rebate process as well and does a fabulous job with the entire balancing actBilly is the head of their construction crew who is courteous and carriers out the entire installation process with sheer professionalism and promptness. I could not be more satisfied with the way the panels look on my roof...Finally Dan, the owner of the Sun Dollar...he is extremely personable and ensures that you are one satisfied customer. He has a well run shop and I cannot recommend these guys moreOn a final note, Greg/Alexis played a KEY role in my Duke rebate. Due to the broken Duke rebate system my original waitlist was at 714!! But due to the perseverance of these guys they took upon the communication with Duke, gathered key details from me, and ensured that I got my rebate (given that I was within 6 minutes of applying for the rebate). I dont think any other company will go that far to take care of their customers.All in all, I cannot recommend these guys more for the job they have done. They come highly recommended and wish them luck in the future.Thanks so much!!!!

My experience with sun dollar energy has been phenomenal. From the sales rep Micha to the owner himself Dan, everyone has been easy to deal with even with the back and forth of my decision to get the panels. The guys who installed my panels looked young but they really knew their stuff and did a very neat job on my house. I couldn’t be more pleased with how everything turned out and I will be calling them back when we get ready to build our next home.

Had Dan and the crew install 32 panels on my roof. Took about a week and everything looks great. They have been very responsive and informative. Thats not to mention the absolutely fabulous price that they gave us on our system. Extremely impressed with the work they have done and the follow-up has been great with any of our questions.

Sun Dollar is an easy team to work with. I got an up front quote, site visit, and was shown different options. I didnt end up getting anything installed (due to my property setbacks and roof orientation). And I even got my deposit returned.

We talked to a couple of solar panel companies and am so glad we went with Dan and Sun Dollar Energy. Dan provided accurate estimates regarding how much money we would save per month, while others provided numbers that were a bit higher than what we actually save. Sun Dollar Energys price beat the competition, and their professionalism and workmanship are top notch. Dan listened to our requirements and came up with a system that would meet our current needs as well our future desires to one day support a solar-powered battery system. I highly recommend Dan and Sun Dollar Energy!

They took care of everything we needed to go solar for our house. Dan, the owner and installer, is very friendly and great to work with. He answered all questions that I had and personally ensured that everything was taken care of appropriately. Micah (sales) just gave us the facts we needed and the best price for the job. We never felt any pressure at any point in our dealings with Sun Dollar Energy. Id recommend them to EVERYONE!!

Very glad I went with Sun Dollar Energy. Got estimates from large solar companies but to me it felt like I was dealing with a car dealership. Dan was very knowledgeable and personable. It was refreshing to talk with a regular person and not a salesman. He walked us through the whole procedure and followed up after installation several times to make sure everything was going well and we were satisfied.

We researched and received quotes for several months before choosing sun dollar. Mical and Dan were most helpful in the process and answered all our questions. After coming in several thousand dollars lower than the other companies, and the work done, we are glad we choose them. The crew was professional and very knowledgeable about the installation and product. Thanks Dan for all your help.

This company provides end to end service to provide a turn key service. Micha came out to our house and was very helpful in helpingus decide what kind of system we would need, including design and cost. The price was very competitive and the job was completed at the promised price. Their technicians were efficient and customer focused, and did a great job installing the system and explaining how it operates. Most important, they provided excellent support in getting homeowners association approval, and took care of all of the bureaucratic aspects of getting this system, including obtaining the appropriate permits, and the paperwork related to interconnecting the system to the Duke Energy power grid and Solar Edge monitoring portal. Dan and his team also had the system installed at the promised time and were well prepared for the final building inspection of the system and components. If it were possible I would give them more than 5 stars for their rating.

We are so happy we chose SunDollar Energy for our 14KW system because they exceeded all our expectations and then some. Starting from the fast and personal service we received by the owner to the really nice friendly & professional employees that installed the system, and the good value we will get from this investment. They made it so easy for us, all we had to do is enjoy the savings. They took care of sizing, permits, installation, inspections, Duke Power and our rebates and did all this to meet our schedule. SunDollar is an honest company with the highest integrity, and expertise. We highly recommend them.

Sun Dollar Energy’s installation of my solar system turned out to be a smooth and stress free experience. From my first contact with Micha, engineering stats and installation with Dan, Greg and crew, through final inspection and then ‘power on ‘ , I observed nothing less than a busines that I can rate nothing less than ‘First Class’. Follow up questions and concerns have been addressed and immediately resolved. Kudos to Sun Dollar Energy. Well Done!

I am extremely pleased with Dan, Nolan and the rest of his crew. They spent quite a bit of time upfront with me before even committing to the installation, making sure I understood all of the technology, answering numerous questions and even helping with the HOA justification. They are not pushy at all, and are focused on helping guide you towards what you need/want and what will work best for you situation.Once the work actually started, all the guys were very prompt and paid great attention to detail throughout the entire process. Aesthetics are important, especially since these are attached to the outside of your house. Because they also believe this, they had to spend a bit of time to work around some of the vents and other obstacles on my roof, while still making the individual panels look like part of a larger array, which I think was well worth the effort. They had no problems making minor changes along the way at my request, and once everything was finished, delivered a great packet of info with everything I might need, and followed up later to make sure everything was working correctly.Overall, they made a reasonably complex process very simple for me as the homeowner, and did excellent work in the process. Highly recommended.

I am one that refuses to give the highest review for any service as I feel everyone including myself are always a work in progress, none the less Sun Dollar did a tremendous job. Dan and the guys came out and within two weeks everything was installed and up and running. We can now be pretty self-sufficent if we have a power loss for a bit of time.

Sun Dollar Energy provides an end to end solar service. We enjoyed working with Micha, who is extremely helpful in helping us decide what kind of system would work best for our home. Micha worked with us to design the optimal layout to meet our solar energy needs. The Sun Dollar Energy costs were very competitive.

Determining to purchase solar panels wasn’t a short term decision for us. After investigating the product on-line, we had several different company representatives provide their sales information. I was surprised on the difference in what each company provided. Mica the representative from Sun Dollar was very knowledgeable, and explained the technology at a level that myself and my wife could understand. He was the only one that provided alternative solar panel solutions, and allowed us to choose our option. The process to approvals and thru installation and activation was explained and Sun Dollar was superior in product and price. Dan, and his installation team were very responsive to address any question and concern.I’m glad I took the time to research five different companies, and I believe that Sun Dollar exceeds the others in the Raleigh Durham area. As home owners in a 55+ community we understand the value that this investment is to our home, and would highly recommend Dan & his Sun Dollar team.Larry & Rene NetzerDurham, N.C.

Very knowledgeable and helpful understanding the options and features of multiple systems.Professional and meticulous install. They took care of all the permits and inspections by the town. System sold performs as described by Sun Dollar Energy.Best price per KW from the quotes I reviewed. Dan and his team were polite, professional and very communicative on coming and going coordination. They always left the worksite as clean or cleaner than they found it...Love my new system and look forward to many years of free energy.... Thanks to the Sun Dollar Energy team!!

Like many of the folks who have written reviews here, we checked out a few other solar companies first. No one else came even close to matching Dans level of expertise and the depth of his knowledge.Most of the other companies just sent out a salesman who had no technical knowledge whatsoever. Dan came out himself and designed a great grid-tied, battery-backup system for our house.We flipped the switch on December 31st and have had 6 months of trouble-free solar. We lost grid power twice due to thunderstorms and our batteries kicked in seamlessly.Update, October 2018While going green is a big factor in my decision making, the commitment to go solar occurred when my husband and I returned home from a Caribbean vacation one February to 20 degree temperatures and two days without power. The diesel generator had never been properly broken in because it was unbearably loud and incredibly smelly. We had no heat and had to move the dogs and ourselves to a friend’s house. I decided we should look into solar power with battery back up.After meeting with several companies, we selected Sun Dollar Energy because of Dan’s involvement with all aspects of the project, his experience and incredible depth of knowledge. Our ground-mounted system has been working great since our install in 2015.Until Hurricane Michael, however, we never got to test how it would do during a lengthy power outage. Each time we lost power, Duke Energy would get it back in 12 hours or so. This time, we were without power for 2 days – an excellent opportunity to see if we could make it off grid!The system worked perfectly! We hadn’t realized the grid was down (our house seamless transitions to the battery back up) so we drained the batteries down to 70% that night. By 11:00 the next morning, they were back to 100% and with all the power the array was generating, we charged our computers and cell phones and took care of all we needed to.I feel so much more secure knowing that, in the event of a disaster, we’ll be able to keep going pretty much as usual – no big energy drains like the dishwasher or the clothes washer, but very happy knowing our two deep freezers and refrigerator, as well as our computers and telephones have all the juice they need.Working with Dan has been great. Whenever we have a question or minor issue with the system, he always responds quickly to texts and emails. We couldnt be happier!

The folks at Sun Dollar Energy did an excellent job quoting, designing, and installing our grid-tied, 12.1kW, roof-mounted PV system! Working with Micha, Dan, and everyone at Sun Dollar was a pleasure. As an electrical engineer with some prior experience in solar power, I had a very particular set of requirements. And as a rather picky DIY homeowner, I may not have been the easiest customer to deal with. But Sun Dollar did not disappoint, and met all of my requests with no hassle, and at a very reasonable price. Their installation was clean, neat, and passed inspection without issue. I am a very satisfied customer and would highly recommend Sun Dollar to anyone looking for a PV installer!
