Is $58,410 to install a solar system with batteries and perform roof repairs a fair price?
Project Details
This is the best quote I've received so far. The roof repair cost is competitive, as other quotes have been around $20,000, and it's a necessary repair. I was excluding the roofing cost in the title, which is why I mentioned ~40k, as that's the approximate cost for the solar and batteries after tax credit. I appreciate any advice.
