Solar Energy Built for Your Neighborhood

Hillcrest's elevated location and substantial detached homes create excellent solar conditions. The neighborhood's strong community character and good roof exposures drive successful solar installations.

Optimized for Hillcrest Homes

Larger detached homes typically offer 800-1,500 square feet of solar-ready roof space with excellent southern exposures.

Typical Roof Types

  • Asphalt shingle pitched roofs
  • Larger roof footprints with full access
  • South-facing primary roof sections
  • Detached properties with minimal shading

Challenges We Solve

  • Older roofs may need replacement
  • Tree canopy coverage in some areas
  • Complex roof geometries on older homes
  • Electrical panel upgrades sometimes needed

Our Solutions

  • Roof replacement + solar installation packages
  • Professional shade analysis and tree trimming
  • Custom designs for complex roof lines
  • Panel upgrades included in solar quotes
