Hi, I'm Dave Simmer.
I started Solar Dave because too many homeowners were getting burned by high-pressure solar sales tactics. Going solar should be exciting — not stressful.
My approach is simple: I give you the real numbers, design the right system for your home, and let you make the decision. No pushy salespeople. No confusing jargon.
I work with a tight group of local electricians and installers I've personally vetted — people I'd trust on my own roof. When my crew shows up at your home, they represent the same standard I hold myself to.
I know Massachusetts — the weather, the utilities, and the state incentives like the Massachusetts SMART program and net metering. That local knowledge makes a real difference.
