Gaia Energy Systems has been designing and installing solar electric systems for residential and commercial clients since 1994. CEO Kate Collins says the company’s ability to handle every step of its clients’ solar projects gives it a distinct advantage over its competition. “Our services are designed to be as comprehensive as possible. After we determine the right system for a property, we’ll handle everything else, from performing energy audits to pulling permits. The only thing the customer has to do is sign the contract and give final approval of the work.”
Gaia Energy Systems’ technicians are known for their meticulous attention to detail, which, according to Ms. Collins, is crucial for ensuring every solar system operates to its peak potential. “Everyone who works here understands the importance of providing high-quality work that exceeds our customers’ expectations,” she says.
“Our goal is to provide the same level of excellent service throughout every step of our clients’ solar projects, from the initial phone call to the installation to the follow-up. We utilize our experience and expertise to ensure each solar installation is done right the first time.”
