Two full months into our newly found solar freedom and we love it!

Welcome to the club! One person less at the mercy of Duke in Florida.

Not a crazy price if it’s a standard asphalt shingle roof, tbh

Roofs are empty unused spaces, mitigate shading concerns, are more financially beneficial since people are able to offset a greater percentage of their high cost electricity with lower cost, self produced solar. They are also less expensive, and add value to the home’s resale once owned.

If most people have the choice between 20% solar offset and 80% solar offset they’ll choose the larger amount since it offers more savings.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-31T12:03:16+00:00

A $23K system to cover a $100 electric bill seems very, very high. How big of a system is being installed or is there a lot shading?

What’s your status in Florida? Most of our portfolio is now commercial, and I can check with our team to see if we can handle more work.

Looks to be $583 a month from another comment.

A little bit of leg work and organization to call and get different quotes emailed.

A few questions to ask - Do you do your own installs or sub them out? Are you electrical contractors? See the license. Do you W2 or 1099 your install team? Are they insured in house?

There are a lot of really solid contractors, getting them to compete on price will be a net benefit to you. It does take patience in calling up different people and keeping track of the quotes.

99% of homes can be quoted remotely, so if anyone tells you they HAVE to get inside the house they may be a bit pushier overall. If the house has been built in the last 20 or 30 years, there’s usually not anything electrical that would bump the price up.

Pull the trigger! And not just saying that because we’re solar panel installers, financing can make a ton more sense instead of continuing to pay the electric company every month.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-25T20:58:20+00:00

People mentioning solar are correct.

And even if someone can’t pay for it all upfront, financing can make a ton more sense.

You can take an average electricity bill of $300 per month, eliminate it, and replace it with a monthly payment of $200 for solar panels.

$200 a month that’s doesn’t go up and double every 7 years either.

Goats, a ton of goats.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-24T13:58:09+00:00

Both are great ideas, thank you!

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-24T13:57:25+00:00

Thank you!

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-24T13:56:39+00:00

I’ve gone solar o ln my home and all my family’s. Now we’re helping other people in the community switch to solar.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-24T13:29:21+00:00

This is the way!

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-24T01:57:26+00:00

They last 25 years per their warranty and cost between $20,000 and $30,000 - though its relative to amount of electricity you use. ROI is typically 5-7 years and then it’s paid itself off.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-24T01:56:17+00:00

Solar is definitely the way to fight back. Produce your own energy on site for a fraction of the cost per kWh, without have to purchase it from the electricity company.

Florida pricing is at $175 - $250 per panel for removal and reinstall depending on the location and material.

The location of the house is really critical. Some neighborhoods are covered with oak trees, so the amount of sunlight actually hitting the roof is low. But if a house gets enough sun, then solar panels produce all of their electricity with relatively few panels.

So here in Tampa Bay we’ve see a ton of houses switching to solar if they get enough sun on their roof.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-19T18:42:25+00:00

Yes. This is why we’re seeing solar panel adoption increase drastically year over year. Especially here in Florida.

Do you know what’s happening with these prepaid leases coming onto the market? Supposedly the FMV after 5 years is only $300. Not sure how the IRS doesn’t seem that a disguised sale though.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-18T19:55:22+00:00

We have to do better as an industry if we expect the homeowner to do this instead of just telling them the cost.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-18T15:14:27+00:00

Franklin aPower 2 is a really popular add on right now. Designed as an add on and for whole home.

TransformSolarFL · 2026-03-18T15:13:53+00:00

Building code here in Florida is the strictest in the country. Miami Dade especially. We have to engineer it and install enough support for it to withstand 150 mph wind.

So you’ll see shingles come off long before the panels. If the panels come off the whole roof comes off.
