Downstream Construction

Nick was knowledgeable and friendly; he answered all of my questions without speaking down to me or pressuring me. The company offered a competitive price, and since they are a small business I felt like I was important to them. The process (which required a surprising number of steps) went smoothly, but not without a few issues: there was a snag with the materials order (the offered solar panels were discontinued, so we needed to choose a different option) and install was delayed. But, when the install started the workers were professional, Jesse (who did the electrical) knew what he was doing and talked me through it, and Nick worked alongside them and made sure everything was done right. They didn't subcontract, even though we had the roof replaced as part of the process. The whole experience was enjoyable, and I didn't regret choosing to work with Downstream. I would definitely do so again. The value and service were both important to me, and they did a great job on both.

We could not have chosen a better solar installation company than Downstream Construction. Several other companies provided us with quotes but Downstream was the only company that provided us with the total package. Nick Kirk traveled 3 1/2 hours to meet with us and the initial survey for our quote. He followed up immediately, unlike other companies we contacted. Nick was so thorough with information regarding financing, rebates and the actual solar panels used. He not only got the proper permits but did all of the leg work to get our financing in order for us. Nick and his team arrived on a Tuesday morning and immediately went to work. Within 2 days from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. our panels and entire system was ready to go. Nick has been in constant contact with us regarding our system. He is able to access remotely and take care of any issues that may arise. So having said all of this, Downstream Construction is our 5 star rated solar installation company.

The whole process was pretty painless, Nick was great at working with us and communicating the next steps we had to take. Downstream Construction looked into the local zoning laws and took care of all the permits, and worked with the utility on our behalf. The project was done ahead of schedule, and the system is running smoothly. I am very happy with how the whole process went, and I recommend them highly to anyone looking to go solar.

My experience with Downstream Construction was excellent from the planning process right through construction and start up of the system. The thing that most impressed me was the pride that was taken in their work. I was walked through all the paper work and any questions I had were answered thoroughly. I would highly recommend Downstream for anyone interested in a solar installation.

I chose Downstream Construction for my solar company for many reasons: 1. Very prompt in coming to my site for the solar survey! 2. The price was reasonable and so were the upgrades I ordered or Downstream included for free! 3. Very professional installation in a short period of time! The only solar estimate company tat did construction also, so structural concerns could be addressed at the time of installation (ie. adding braces to roof beam that was cracked)! 5. Nick Kirk and team explained how the system worked and helped me with all the paperwork for tax deferment and tax rebates!

Downstream Construction is a first class operation. Knowledgeable, professional, and personable staff. Very efficient and thorough in all aspects of our project, from on-site assessment, initial consultation, planning and installation. Nick and his team handled every detail efficiently and professionally. We chose Downstream on the basis of our first meeting, even though we received lower quotes from other installers. We are very glad to have found a team that exceeded our expectations. Nick and his team went to great lengths to assure our complete satisfaction. Very impressive!
