Southern Exposure Solar

We had a great experience working with Grayson at Southern Exposure. He came out and did a personal site inspection and review, walked us through the design process and considerations. We decided to go with a larger-brand competitor but ended up being disappointed with the lack of attention during their process. When we contacted Grayson again, he was supportive, helpful at assessing new regulations going into effect and offering to honor his original system quote. The Southern Exposure build team was fantastic, efficient, and friendly. Cannot recommend this group enough.

Very happy with my solar installation through Southern Exposure Solar. The team was very easy to work with, efficient and handled all aspects of permitting.

I had a 12.9 KW system installed in August 2021 at my home in Virginia Beach. I have NO regrets at all! Grayson, Britney and the whole crew were nothing short of the best of the best. You will read and hear about all these horror stories from Wavy 10 on your Side and other outlets about these solar contractors ripping people off. You will definitely NOT get that with Southern Exposure Solar. Grayson will tell you everything upfront with no sugar coat and will price the entire system fairly with the end product as solid as it can be. I even got one of my neighbors to have his solar installed with Southern Exposure Solar and he is just as happy as I am.

We dealt with several companies before selecting Southern Exposure. We were limited by our HOA to installing solar panels on our back roof (western facing with numerous trees). Several companies told us they could deliver 100% of our energy needs. A little research told us this was an obvious lie, as we wouldn't get enough sunlight most of the year. However, we were pleased to deal with Grayson Goodstein of Southern Exposure. He assessed our situation and said we would likely get 66 to 70 percent of energy costs covered. With current prices it would take us maybe 16 to 17 years to recover our costs. Grayson said his recommendation was NOT to get a system, if were thinking of it purely financially. We thanked him for his honesty, but decided to get the panels anyway. We expect energy prices to rise and hope to be in the home for 20 years or more. Installation went very smoothly. Our own electrician came by and was impressed by Southern's work. He said most installs he'd seen from other companies were shoddy and unprofessional. In the six months since installation we have had zero problems with any of the equipment, which our research showed was made of high quality components. Everything functions as it should. Grayson also helped us with all the necessary paperwork to get up and running. To sum up: an excellent experience. Southern Exposure delivers what they promise.

From beginning to end, our experiences with Southern Exposure Solar were wonderful. On the first call Grayson explained the proposal, options, and timeline. On the site visit he confirmed measurements, even crawling through our very hot attic to verify the soundness of our roof structure. The installation crew was a delight – always friendly, on-time, kept us informed about progress; now we have a lovely productive solar array. The Southern Exposure Solar team met every commitment, answered every question, and took care of the entire process. Now we REALLY enjoy watching daily production numbers.

After an extensive review of solar energy system providers, we selected Southern Exposure to install our system. Grayson meticulously walked us through the technical details and options for financing that best suited our needs. Southern Exposure being backed by Certainteed as a certified vendor and installer was an important factor in our selection process, but equally important was the advice and attention to detail in Southern Exposure’s installation. They treated our home as if it was their own with an extremely clean installation. The results? Our March electric bill was $7.86! We couldn’t be happier.
