## The honest read

Big Sky Solar is a small, owner-led residential and small-commercial solar installer based in Hopkinton, NH, run by Brian Roy, serving central New Hampshire homeowners with rooftop and ground-mount solar systems.

Reviewers from 2023 through 2025 consistently name Brian directly and describe fair, upfront pricing, clear communication and a smooth, fully handled process — permits, inspections and utility coordination included. One homeowner who compared notes with a friend who used a different installer at the same time said that friend had to arrange her own electrician, deal with the town, and set up her own solar credits, while Big Sky Solar handled everything.

Several customers have returned for repeat work, including a homeowner who first installed a 22 kW ground-mount system in 2015 and later added a 7.2 kW rooftop expansion on a horse barn, and another who had Big Sky Solar replace a defective inverter and was charged only for the labor. A 2025 review and several from 2023-2024 continue to praise responsiveness on both new installations and follow-up repairs.

Every review on file across Google and solar-industry review sites is five stars, spanning small repair calls to large installations, with Brian named as the point of contact throughout — a strong, consistent track record for homeowners considering solar in the greater Concord/Hopkinton, NH area.

**Strengths:**
- Owner-led service — Brian is named and credited directly across nearly every review
- Fair, upfront pricing — reviewers repeatedly describe honest, competitive quotes
- Full-service handling — reviewers cite permits, inspections and utility coordination all managed
- Repeat customers — homeowners have returned for expansions and repairs years later
- Prompt repairs — a defective inverter was replaced quickly and charged for labor only
