  • What if I need a new roof?

    At New England Solar Initiative, we can offer you a simple solution: a full roof replacement. Thanks to the expertise of our exceptional team, we can transform your old roof into a new one complete with a customized solar power system. To get started, please contact us today.

  • I see all these ads for "free" solar. How could it be free?

    Americans around the country install solar panels on their roofs with no upfront cost. This is funded through taxes and electricity bills, which as a collective, supports the accessibility of solar panel systems to customers just like you. 

  • What if I sell my house, what do I do?

    If you sell your home, you have the option to transfer the lease or to pay off the loan before the sale is complete. One thing to keep in mind is that homes with solar panels sell for approximately 4% more than homes without solar power. In the New England region, this percentage is even higher. With solar, you have the potential to increase your home value anywhere from $10,000 to $100,000!

  • Say I don't want them anymore, what do I do?

    Much like a car loan, you have the option to pay off your solar panel loan ahead of time and sell your panels. If you choose to sell your panels, you can count on us to help you fid a buyer for your solar-equipped home. 

  • Can I get paid to go solar?

    Yes! At New England Solar Initiative, we offer referral incentives. By referring just one person per month who signs up with New England Solar Initiative, you can earn a minimum of $500. Be sure to take advantage of this opportunity to refer friends, family members, and colleagues. 

  • If I have a knob and tube electrical panel, can I go solar?

    Utilizing a knob and tube system goes against standard practice. However, we have accommodated such requests in the past. To learn more, please contact New England Solar Initiative today. We’ll schedule an onsite evaluation with you and determine the best solutions for your solar needs.

  • I just want a quote, can I get that from New England Solar Initiative?

  • How long will it take for my panels to be installed?

    At New England Solar Initiative, the time between the initial consultation and complete installation is typically 2-3 months. In most cases, panels are installed within 1-2 days.
