Our Step-by-Step Process

We break the solar journey into manageable phases so you know exactly what's happening next.

Site Assessment

We evaluate your roof, sun exposure, electrical setup, and local codes. Montrose's tree-lined blocks and varied roof types each affect placement and system size.

Permit & Design

We handle Houston's electronic permit system and any deed restrictions specific to your Montrose address. Structural and electrical plans get sealed by Texas licensed engineers.

3

Installation

Our teams mount panels, run conduit, wire the inverter, and connect to CenterPoint Energy. We coordinate with utility inspectors on your schedule.

4

Inspection & Handoff

Houston Building Department and CenterPoint Energy inspect the system. Once approved, your system powers on and you own the benefits.

You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Why Local Expertise Matters

Montrose has unique rules, architecture, and utility requirements.

Houston's Permitting System

Houston's permitting process requires electronic submission through iPermits and ProjectDox. We know the exact forms, structural requirements, and wind-load calculations Houston's Building Department wants. We also handle CenterPoint Energy's interconnection paperwork so your system connects safely to the grid.

Montrose Building Types

Montrose blends century-old bungalows and mansions with modern condos and lofts. Older roofs need reinforcement calculations; newer buildings may have HOA or deed restrictions. We assess each property individually and get approvals before any work begins.

Parking in Montrose is tight. Our crews minimize street impact by staging materials efficiently and respecting resident and business traffic patterns during installation.

Climate & Maintenance Planning

Houston's heat and humidity demand regular panel cleaning and corrosion-resistant hardware. We use marine-grade fasteners and recommend annual maintenance to keep systems running at peak efficiency in Montrose's subtropical climate.

500+ systems installed in and around Montrose since 2015.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for solar in Montrose?

Yes. Houston requires structural and electrical building permits, plus CenterPoint Energy interconnection approval. We handle all paperwork and submissions electronically through iPermits.

What if my Montrose property is in a historic district?

We review deed restrictions and historic district guidelines before proposing any design. Some areas require specific panel colors or roof placement. We work with local historic commissions to get approvals.

Can I add battery storage later to my existing system?

Yes. If your system was designed with future battery readiness, adding storage is straightforward. Older systems may need an inverter upgrade. We'll assess and provide a retrofit plan.

Does CenterPoint Energy offer net metering for solar?

CenterPoint Energy does not offer net metering, but your retail electric provider may offer buy-back programs. We help you understand credits and energy savings specific to your provider.

What about flooding near Buffalo Bayou?

Some Montrose properties fall in flood-prone zones. We review FEMA maps and work with your property engineer on elevation and grading. Electrical equipment is raised or protected as needed.

How often do I need to clean my panels in Houston?

We recommend quarterly cleaning in Houston's humid climate to remove dust, pollen, and mineral deposits. This keeps efficiency high. We offer maintenance plans or one-time services.
