Very pleased with the work done. A+ for Bob and his crew, F- for Toronto Hydro and government bureaus. Accepted the quote in March 2017 but installation was not complete until late October with all of the delay due to government agencies. Bob's crew was quick and efficient - they only needed about three days for their part. Bob handled all of the paperwork, and did all of the necessary harrassing to get the bureaucrats moving. We had only a single issue. The cabling was initially laid across the north roof which would have limited our ability to effect tile replacements and could potentially be a source for leaks over the course of the system's 20 year lifespan. Bob sent Greg out a couple of days later who moved the cable under the eaves for a much cleaner look.
We received three quotes. The lowest seemed dodgy with the salesperson trying to push for more business by placing cells on the North side or under our tree's shade. Brightworks was in the middle with no pressuring, offering a configuration that matched our expectations. We also ordered the critter guard.
It is now four years later with the panels having survived some hairy wind and winter storms without incident or leak. The installation includes internet monitoring to track efficiency. Solar capture drops to virtually zero under snow cover or rainy days. Even so, this was a 6 kWH system and earns $2,000 on an annual basis. In the middle of January, we were capturing as much as 18 kWh per day, trending to a peak of 35 kWh per day through the summer months. In other words, it is meeting the targets as projected by the Brightworks team.
We can easily recommend Brightworks for your solar installation needs.

Brightworks has been excellent to deal with right from the start. While seeking different offerings, the decision was to go with them and the work was well-performed, on time, and within budget; follow-up has been excellent too.

Brightworks were very professional and completed the project as promised and on budget. Our solar panels were installed properly and have worked flawlessly ever since the installation. We had no issues with this firm and would definitely recommend them.

Bright works, and Bobby MacCannell introduced us to solar panels several years ago now. Here we are six years later and the panels are still producing solar revenue as expected. The installation itself was seamless, professional, and on budget. Even after all this time we consider it one of the best decisions we made. Thank you once again Bob Maccannell, and Brightworks.

We have consistently proved our expertise, technique and skill when it comes to custom solar panel solutions, but it s the passion and integrity for what we do that has resonated so well with our customers and industry leaders alike.
