No leaky roof. I suppose it could happen with a fly-by-night contractor but I used Momentem Solar.

II would definitely do it again, but I actually believe global warming is a threat to humanity and if I can to something to stop it without dipping into my pocket, I'm all in.
You did it for a nice reason but you are not responsible for releasing thousands of tons of carbon into the atmosphere. Lots and lots of other entities are supplying the vast majority of it
