The Good

  • Solar Sales and Installation Available
  • Free Consultation
  • Roofing Services Offered

Solar Sales and Installation Available

A new trend in solar is the emergence of the solar broker. This solar broker will provide high level management services of the entire solar process. However, clients then have to work with multiple third-party companies to complete the entire solar process.

Rather than use this approach, First Class Roofing and Solar handles the entire process in-house from start to finish. From the initial solar equipment sales to the professional installation, First Class Roofing and Solar will handle it all. 

Free Consultation

Interested clients can take advantage of the free solar consultation available through First Class Roofing and Solar. While many solar installation companies offer some sort of free initial consultation, First Class Roofing and Solar goes above and beyond with drone and walk-through inspections to ensure that the structure is an ideal fit for a solar system. This means that any questions or concerns an interested customer may have will be thoroughly addressed. 

Roofing Services Offered

While some solar companies are starting to dabble in roofing work, First Class Roofing and Solar offer comprehensive roofing services to clients. Clients can also take advantage of both roofing and solar expertise at the same time if desired. Whether a client needs small repairs, an entire replacement, or a full roof installation, First Class Roofing and Solar is up to the task.

The Bad

  • Limited Service Area
  • Undisclosed Equipment Information
  • Undisclosed Warranty Details
  • Lack of Financing Specifics

Limited Service Area

First Class Roofing and Solar has remained a Georgia-focused operation. First Class Roofing and Solar is relatively restricted when it comes to the area it provides solar installation services in. Current cities serviced include the following:

  • Marietta
  • Hiram
  • Powder Springs
  • Alpharetta
  • Duluth
  • Dunwoody
  • Lawrenceville
  • Brookhaven
  • Atlanta

Outside of these cities, prospective solar clients will need to look elsewhere for solar installation services.  

Undisclosed Equipment Information

Despite offering solar sales to clients, First Class Roofing and Solar has not disclosed equipment partnerships or information to prospective clients. Most solar installation companies will make all of these details public as a majority of companies have manufacturer partnerships or are authorized dealers of certain equipment providers.

This does not seem to be the case with First Class Roofing and Solar as the company has decided not to disclose equipment or brand information. This is critical information for interested clients, so not making it available during the purchasing decision process is concerning. 

Undisclosed Warranty Details

Solar systems installations cost from $15,000 to $25,000 on average, and most solar installation companies will offer an equipment and workmanship warranty. Generally, the solar manufacturer or the equipment installer will provide the equipment warranty which usually lasts 25 years and covers repairs and replacements to equipment. The solar installation company itself will then offer the workmanship warranty. These warranties are usually 10 years in length and cover any issues that can be attributed to installation.

However, First Class Roofing and Solar does not disclose any warranty information so it is unknown whether these types of warranties are even offered to clients. 

Lack of Financing Specifics

Very few property owners are able to pay for systems upfront and outright. Some will decide to pay for their solar system in cash, but that is not a reality for every client. To combat the steep investment costs of solar, most solar installation companies offer at least one financing option whether it is through a loan, lease, or PPA agreement.

While First Class Roofing and Solar claims to offer financing, there are no specifics as to what the options are and what solutions solar clients can access.

The Bottom Line

First Class Roofing and Solar offers a wide range of roofing services and solar installation. The company will handle the entire solar process from start to finish, managing the sales and installation portions of the solar process. Each interested customer can take advantage of a free solar consultation complete with a roof inspection prior to work being done. Not all solar installation companies also incorporate roofing services, but First Class Roofing and Solar does. 

While there are a number of reasons a prospective client may want to go with First Class Roofing and Solar for solar installation services, there are some limitations to be aware of. The company has failed to disclose what equipment is used in installation, what warranties are available to clients, and what financing options are even available. 

Taking into consideration all service factors, clients interested in having both roofing and solar work done on their home should consider First Class Roofing and Solar. However, clients that just want a solar system installed should probably look into more solar-focused companies.
