Customer Testimonial
“I met Buffalo Solar Solutions at the Buffalo Home Show in March. Tyler came to my house and presented me with an initial assessment. He explained the installation process, the financing options, timeline—everything you’d want to know. I requested some changes and got a modified quote, which was exactly what I was looking for. Then I looked at every online review, Angie’s List, BBB—I even called previous customers. There was nothing bad to be said. This team is nothing but professional. I signed on March 24 and my system was turned on April 28—ahead of schedule!”

*Customers are still responsible for paying the basic hookup fee to the utility company (in this case, National Grid), which ranges from approximately $15–$17 a month (plus tax).
**It was actually cheaper for this customer to go solar than to keep paying their electric bill! Most of our customers choose a 15-year term, which in most cases brings their solar payment down to the same cost as their average electric bill or sometimes even cheaper! Keep in mind whichever term the customer chooses, they can pay off their system early with NO prepayment penalties.
