“I was skeptical at first, but with the help of Jack who was able to walk me through it and answer ALL of my questions, I felt comfortable enough to take a swing and now I see the benefit. Totally worth it! The thing that helped me feel at ease is, it’s obvious that he really cares about his customers.”
Michail K.
Stamford, CT
“Jack is the best. I’ve already referred my sister and several others to him. He goes way above and beyond. For Christmas, because city permitting and utility approval were taking so long, he gave me a lovely bottle of homemade wine that his family made which was delicious. Seriously, if you want to do solar, and you have a lot of questions, you should talk to him.”
Gerardo G.
Stamford, CT
“It took a while to get the panels on the roof, but now that they’re there, I’ll pay $90 per month for the next 25 years for all of my power. You can’t beat that! Definitely worth the wait. One thing I want to say about Jack is, he was a teacher, and he gave us info about nutrition and learning strategies that he used to teach which was a very nice thing to do. The time he spent with us, and the care provided was way beyond our expectations. I highly recommend doing solar with OBrien Solar LLC.”
