Our Story

Andy Bindea founded Sigora Solar in 2011 with little more than a used Honda civic and a 40’ ladder in Waynesboro, Virginia. Since then we have grown to 11 states across the Mid-Atlantic and Mid-West. We were named the number 1 solar installation company in Virginia and ranked 30th residential installer in the Nation. We were also named the most forward-thinking company in the US. Our unique Produce And Reduce package has been saving homeowners and business owners thousands of dollars on their bills and creating a positive difference across the globe through our Sigora Gives Back program. This program utilizes a partnership through our sister company, Sigora Haiti, and the non-profit HADPRE to bring electricity to rural Haiti. Haiti is currently the poorest nation in the western hemisphere and over 8 million people do not have access to electricity.

We recently got solar through Sigora Solar, and they have some really fantastic folks on their crew. Our sales rep was Jason, and he was really fantastic about explaining everything to us and walking us through the process. I'm sure our property was a real pain to trench given how much stuff we have buried underground here, but the trenching crew did a great job (I'm horrible with names and have forgotten the name of their crew leader! but he was great!). And we just had the efficiency inspection for our home, and Aubrey did an awesome job.

Sigora did a great job during the energy audit. They took the time to explain their findings and recommendations to us which I found to be very useful and it all made perfect sense. There where a few things in our house that I didn't know could use improvement, so we are thankful for their thorough review. I also didn't know that a bunch of upgrades were included in the audit do that was a great surprise. Thanks

Working with Sigora Solar has been seamless from day one! Jack gave a wonderful initial presentation and walked us through the process. He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and our questions were answered. The installation process was quick and the crew was very professional and neat. All contacts via email or text to deal with getting Homeowners Association approval and getting things turned over with the electric company were smooth and they kept me in the loop every step of the way. The Energy Efficiency Team, Chris and Casey, did an incredible job of upgrading the lights to LED, installing more efficient thermostats, insulation sealing, testing the existing system and explaining how to make our home more energy efficient. They arrived early and worked quickly to get everything done in a timely manner. I couldn't be more pleased with the entire process from beginning to end. Not to mention....lower electric bills!! So far the panels have produced more energy than we have consumed! I highly recommend the switch to Sigora!

Today I had my energy efficient inspection. It went well I figured I wouldn’t have lots to do but I am anxious to get the report back and see what else can be done. Aubrey was very informative and explained what was happening and what he would be doing. Great job today!

Lori Rocco

17:22 22 Jan 20

Had our panels installed on Thursday and Friday. Wednesday we had the energy-efficiency screening of our home done by Aubrey. Aubrey was extremely professional in explaining how the entire process worked and was a really wonderful person to work with. The electricians who came on Thursday and then the gentlemen who actually installed the panels were wonderful, professional and timely. So far I've really enjoyed working with Sigora Solar. Their staff is very prompt in returning my phone calls and emails. I would recommend them as a company to go solar with any time!

We are waiting on the panel install but have had the Sigora energy efficiency team come out and help make my home more efficient. What a great group of guys and so professional. I got stuck at work so I was late for the appointment but they were so nice about it and just jumped in. These guys were great and don't think I could say enough good things to do them justice. Looking forward to the time when I can "flip the switch"! Thanks Sigora for service this far!!!

Jonathon Gellings

21:24 23 Dec 19

We had an amazing experience through and through. The installation was surprisingly quick (only took a few hours for our 7.1 kW system) and the crews were very professional and kept our yard clean. I love how the panels look and fit so cleanly on the roof. We got the full Produce and Reduce package so we also received an energy efficiency audit and some free improvements. I was surprised how much they were able to do considering the home is new construction! Definitely glad they performed that audit and we now have a Pearl Certified home as well! The energy efficiency team was great to talk to and suggested some other energy/home tips to help make our HVAC and water heater last longer and operate most efficiently. It’s nice to know we won’t be wasting lots of the energy we produce to any inefficiencies in the home. The whole process was simple and professional, and I’d definitely recommend Sigora to anyone interested in going solar.

This has been an excellent experience from day one. While initially a little bit skeptical, Sigora has proven they have their act together and are a top notch company. The communication throughout the entire process has been unparalleled - consistent and timely communication from personnel who have answers to questions and are top notch with customer service. We can't say enough good things about Jack and his approach to introducing you to the company and the solar concept and his ability and commitment to follow through and make things happen. Equally impressive was Aubrey and his team during the energy efficiency audit process. Absolutely enjoyed conversing with Aubrey and his team. Very knowledgeable, personable, thorough and efficient. And, we were super impressed with the installation team who installed everything quickly, professionally and cleanly. Highly recommend Sigora! From top to bottom, from our perspective, they have the entire package - Knowledgeable - Communication - Professionalism - Efficiency - Quality. And, they handle every aspect of the project!!!! This is a top notch company!!! Thanks Sigora.

So far the experience has been great! We’ve really enjoyed working with Brian. He has been really helpful and responsive to all of our questions and we are set up for installation this month. The Energy Efficiency team was wonderful. They were extremely customer service oriented, helpful and fast and went through our entire house in only a couple of hours. They even vacuumed my rug before they left! If the rest of the experience is this good, we will be elated!

Jim Baudreau

20:31 06 Dec 19

Everyone that we've worked with at Sigora has been fantastic! Very professional and very personable. It's been a smooth process, every question answered and additional information provided. The energy audit was easy, and the guys who did the job were great to work with. Very happy we made the decision not only to add solar to our home but to work with Sigora!

Darnell Allen

18:21 05 Dec 19

It has been a very pleasant journey working with Sigora Solar. It all started with a great visit from Paul one summer day. He came in and described solar energy with great detail. He left me with all the information that I needed to make an informed decision. After thinking it over (and it didn't take long) it was clear to go solar and to do it with Sigora. Every step in the process was smooth, clear, and concise. I received calls and emails to make sure I understood every phase of the process from getting approvals with my homeowner's association to getting the final inspections. The customer service has been top notch. Today, I'm nearing the end of the process with the energy efficiency testing. Darrick, Jack, and Jacob came in and did a thorough check. Fortunately, my home is only 2 years old and was in pretty good shape. However, they went the extra mile and made sure I had the extra gadgets and apps (Nest thermostat, Hue starter kit, etc). Great Company!! Great Team!! Great People!! I'm looking forward to many sunny days ahead.

Working with Sigora has been a truly awesome experience. We are so thrilled about our new solar panel system, and the entire process has been seamless and painless. Our main representative, Paul, has been an incredible ally from start to finish and has been knowledgeable, logical, and patient with us. As and added bonus, Sigora sends out a team to test the Energy Efficiency of your home, and our team consisting of Darrick, Jack, and Jacob was wonderful. They were able to answer all of my questions and taught me so much about how to keep my home energy efficient for years to come. Sigora Solar has earned my very highest recommendation!

Blake Long

02:43 05 Dec 19

Sigora Solar installed my system in Virginia Beach and it's been operating a full month and I can see the difference already even with the short daylight days of November. Matt explained how they size the system and worked with me to find the right financing plan. Randy kept in touch during the installation and inspection process keeping me well informed. The added bonus was when the energy efficiency crew of Jack, Jacob and Aubrey came and checked my house for energy loss. I didn't realize how many bulbs needed to be changed to LED and the Philips Hue bulbs were a pleasant bonus which can easily be controlled at home of from away. If you are interested in saving energy and money I would recommend Sigora Solar and their team and the quality work and equipment.

William Bigelow

Sigora Solar did a great job getting my solar panels placed and working. They coordinated all steps that were needed and kept me informed with the progress. All appointments and scheduled work was done properly and in a timely manner. The Energy Efficiency team, led by Aubrey, was informative and did a great job getting my house in the best position to be energy efficient. The whole job was excellent from every aspect. Thank you.

Holly Hutchens

19:58 21 Nov 19

The Sigora Solar Efficiency Team (Aubrey, Casey and Jacob) were here today and were awesome! Polite, informative, efficient and proactive! In general, I love that Sigora has a team like this as part of the solar panel install process. Helps to know that we'll not only be producing cleaner energy but will be using less as well! I'd also like to sing the praises of the install team. I had the fortune of being able to schedule both groups on the same day. I can't believe how quickly they got the panels up and made sure to check in with me to confirm the plan and made adjustments only with my okay. Great experience all the way around!

Tania Zurnaci

14:44 18 Nov 19

We’re so excited for our solar panels! Everyone we have worked with has been awesome and has explained everything to us every step of the way. The energy efficiency team has been great and it is exciting to know that our home is going to be running as efficiently as possible.

This is a review about the Energy Efficiency Testing- I can not have enough good things about the team that completed it. The team consisted of Audrey, Jacob and Jack. They were super professional with all their testing and keeping me informed about what was going on, where my house was testing at, what that means, and what they are going to do from there. There have been some bumps in this process as a whole, which is to be expected, but the efficiency of this team made me hopeful that the rest will go smoothly!

Erin Loeffler

19:17 13 Nov 19

We just completed our Energy Efficiency Exam in our home and everything went very smoothly. Our energy exam has most definitely been the most professional experience with Sigora Solar up to this point. The team consisted of Audrey, Jacob and Jack. They came in and did testing on our home and made the changes necessary to make it as efficient as possible. They changed all of our lightbulbs to LED bulbs to save maximum energy. Also, they changed our thermostats to Nest thermostats, which makes it possible to control the temperature from our phones. On top of that they added extra insulation to our attic door. These three men were on top of every aspect of their job and did an outstanding job. They even took the time to explain everything they were doing as well as why they were doing it. On top of doing their job, they were all very respectful and a pleasure to have in my home. This team of men were definitely top notch!

Saul Gomez

21:01 11 Nov 19

Aubrey Hughes and his team of pros really knocked it out of the park-we cannot overstate how pleased we are! We had solar panels installed on our home and the entire process has been great! What we were not expecting was the above and beyond service and added benefit of a whole home insulation assessment, nest system thermostat upgrade, outfitting out home with LED bulbs where needed, and a Hue bulb install, at no extra charge! Beyond that, the level of efficiency and professionalism is second to none-really pleased with the service and the attentiveness of Aubrey and his team - if this is any indication of what we can expect, then this truly is a partnership with Sigora that we look forward to having for years and years to come!

Had a great experience with Signora Solar. Jack helped set everything up and the office staff has answered multiple questions that came up in the process. Today the Energy Efficiency Crew came out and Aubrey, Darrick, and Jacob improved the house. Enjoy being solar.

Carter East

Great experience with Sigora Solar. They've been in constant communication throughout the process. Installers were thorough and courteous. Energy efficiency audit team was the same. I'd highly recommend them to anyone considering adding a solar system to their home.

It took my wife and I 2 years to commit to going solar. This fall we committed and thanks goes to Jack who walked us though each step of the process. Today, we had our energy efficiency crew to come out and Aubrey and Jacob really improved on some things around the house. They gave us everything we needed to make sure our home is energy efficient. Thank you to all of the key players in making our experience wonderful.

Working with Sigora Solar has been a wonderful experience. The solar panel installation was quick and looks amazing. They have been so helpful in keeping us up to date with the process. The energy audit team was also a pleasure to work with. Sigora Solar is very knowledgeable about their work and I’m very happy with our decision to go solar!

Sigora has been extremely professional every step of the way. Their solar panel installation team was quick and efficient. The electricians were great and explained everything they did. The energy efficiency team was very helpful and informative in all that they did. They made changes and recommendations to help us save energy. I have recieved better than expected service! Thanks Sigora! Doug

Chris Hannah

Signora has been a great team to work with. They got our new panels installed quick and they look beautiful. They kept us informed of the process with some great documentation and had no problems answers our questions. Aubrey and team where great with the Energy Efficacy Check. They were able to explain to us in easy to understand language what they were doing to make our home more energy efficient and how we could easily make a few more minor updates to get us even more efficiencies. I love checking how much power I make every day and have been singing the praises of solar already.

Sigora has walked us through every step of this process with professionalism and a passion for what they do. Everyone who has been to our house has been personable and knowledgeable. We’re very comfortable with how our solar install and efficiency audit have gone. 10/10 would recommend this company for all of your solar energy needs.

Deidre Carpenter

14:31 26 Sep 19

Sigora has been excellent to work with on getting our solar panels up and running. From the sales aspect, to installation and the energy efficiency audit, every person that has been at our home representing the company has been extremely knowledgeable and courteous. I could not be happier with the service we received. Thanks guys!

David Vance

16:51 23 Sep 19

We've enjoyed our experience with Sigora from start to finish. They have been courteous and friendly every step of the way. From discussing the benefits of solar to how we could finance the project to the installation to the energy audit, Sigora has been wonderful. They've answered all of our questions and provided us everything we need to be comfortable with this project. We're excited about our new solar system and glad we choose Sigora!

Andrew Baldwin

13:53 23 Sep 19

Excellent service and standards from the start. They thoroughly explain the cost, potential returns, and optimization of energy usage and Jason makes himself readily available with any and all questions. They walk you through every step of the process with regards to permitting, installation, and hookup. You can also have easy access to your energy production on an app once the installation is complete. Aubrey, Chris, and Casey came to the house to do the energy audit and did an excellent job explaining ways to maximize efficiency while they replaced all light bulbs and did the recommended upgrades to help with the Pearl Certification. Highly recommended for ease of service and customer-focused attitude.

13:31 14 Sep 19

Wanted to say how great everyone has been. Paul is phenomenal! Yesterday, Jack and the other guys came to the house for the efficiency upgrades. Arrived early - how often does that happen? They were incredible! Super friendly, always had a smile, and were extremely helpful. Replaced every bulb in the house, every can light, and made multiple other efficiency upgrades to my attic and blower system. Can't say enough about how easy Paul and everyone else has made this process. Recommend it to everyone.

Maggie van Ekeren

15:54 11 Sep 19

Great energy audit experience! Aubrey took the time to show me how the pressure test works - fascinating! He did a great job, listened to all my questions, answered them expertly, and I’m very satisfied with the service provided. Thank you!

Lauren Sword

18:22 09 Sep 19

So far it has been an awesome experience dealing with Sigora Solar. From meeting with Thomas Thiel and coming up with a plan for our home, installing the panels and having The efficiency team (Jack and Jacob) come out and do a great job. Thomas, Jack, and Jacob have all been very knowledgeable, pleasant and respectful of our home. And the communication from the company has been great. Couldn't ask for better people and service.

Bobbi Gentry

18:02 27 Aug 19

The energy efficiency guys were awesome. Aubrey and Jacob really made the process easier and less scary. I am happy to work with Sigora Solar in this process!!

Jarrett Freeman

14:34 24 Aug 19

We can't think of a better way to try to shape a future for our kids and their kids. We're already seeing major savings from our install. From the design phase through the energy efficiency team showing up - we've been very happy with the look of our system, the performance of our system, and the customer service we've received. I'm happy to share this company with family, friends, and business associates. The energy efficiency audit with Chris and Jack was very educational and beneficial for our install. Those guys deserve a raise!

Jennifer nifer

22:04 23 Aug 19

Ross, Aubrey, Casey and Jacob performed our energy audit and upgrades today. They did an awesome and thorough job and significantly reduced the energy loss in our older home. We love the attic improvements and our lightbulbs. We will be flipping the switch in the morning and turning on our solar! Very nice crew who explained everything to me.

Leah Pratt

17:59 23 Aug 19

The Energy Efficiency Team that came out to the house was very professional and efficient. They arrived within the allotted time frame, set everything up quickly, and were extremely thorough in their explanation of what they were doing and the things that I could do to improve the energy efficiency of my home. The installation of the LED lights was an added bonus. I would definitely recommend Chris and Jack for service!

Amber Launstein

16:41 23 Aug 19

Our experience in getting solar panels was filled with lots of education. There is so much to solar panels and energy efficiency that we had no idea about. The entire crew from start to finish was professional and informed. It took almost 2 months for the entire process start to finish, from first meeting with Jon to installation, to city officials signing off permits, to turning the units on, and finally our energy efficiency inspection with the super friendly and easy going Chris and Jack. We are happy to be choosing alternative energy for our home!

Ashley Lawson

17:27 22 Aug 19

I just finished up my energy efficiency inspection with Ross, Jack, and Casey and I couldn't be happier! They were thorough and efficient and helped me with some simple things that are going to make a huge difference in my energy usage. I have an old home that presents some unique challenges, but they knew just what to do and were in and out much faster than I expected. A great experience overall!

Ronnie Freeman

16:22 19 Aug 19

The Sigora Solar Team lead by Aubrey with Chris, and Jacob was every polite and informative. They took the time to explain each step in the process before inspecting or fixing and upgrading any item. They gave tips on how simple fixes would assist in helping to make the house more efficient.

Sean Gallagher

14:14 19 Aug 19

Hey. I just had my Energy Efficiency Team review come in and check my house over to be sure I’m not losing any energy I shouldn’t be. The Team consisted of Aubrey, Chris and Jacob. They did some thorough testing and replaced all of my lights with LED bulbs to save me even more energy then the Solar Panels alone. I couldn’t be happier with how they handled everything and all of the different ways I was losing energy that is now fixed. This is definitely something everyone needs to do even without having the solar panels. And I couldn’t have asked for a better team of people to do this review. They took the time to explain everything they were doing which really helped me out.

Josh Madden

16:49 16 Aug 19

Energy Efficiency Team worked with me to assess and improve several parts of my house including insulation, sealing, lighting (replacement with LEDs). The team was early, worked quickly, was very professional, and thorough. This is a great part of the Sigora Solar program.

Elizabeth (Liz) McCrory

The Sigora team was super-friendly and very competent. We had our solar panels installed a year and a half ago and we have been very pleased with our resulting electric bills! They are the best!

Ryan Tanner

19:39 14 Nov 18

I had solar panels installed on my home 1.5 years ago and am really happy with that decision. Sigora handled all aspects of the project: sizing and design, paperwork, construction, and energy efficiency upgrades. While everything was not perfect, Sigora always worked with me to smooth out bumps in the road. They have continued to support any issues since the system was turned on. The panels have on average produced more power than we have consumed which has been awesome.

Jerry Holsopple - Visual & Communication Arts Dept

22:57 07 Nov 18

Sigora installed our panels a few years ago. Their crew members did a great job of installation. They helped me to clearly understand how the system would work and over these years the panels are performing at the level we were expecting. I love not paying for any electricity for more than 6 months a year and lower bills for the rest of the year. I would recommend them to anyone interesting in solar. I am really glad we worked with Sigora.

Scott Berg

21:27 07 Nov 18

Everything about Sigora from start to finish has been wonderful! Everyone we’ve had contact with,our sales rep,advisor,panel installation crew, electricians and energy rating experts have been friendly,professional and knowledgeable. Everyone seems to truly enjoy what they do and wants to promote the great things about solar power as well as Sigora. 5 stars aren’t enough to express our Sigora experience!

Zak Billmeier

00:27 02 Nov 18

Sigora did a great job on my house from start to finish. Not only are their people knowledgeable, but from the salespeople to the installers they are professional, prompt & courteous. They are always available to answer your questions and I get the feeling they really care and have passion for their work. They come through and do an energy audit, too, and help you get your house to the point where you are using only the energy you need and not wasting any. The panels work very, very well. I would recommend Sigora to anyone looking to take advantage of the sun’s energy to power their home.

Grant Tate

From the day Caroline Sada walked in our door, our project with Sigora ran smoothly--well planned, well executed. Their team is competent, courteous and reliable. They kept us informed about the schedule and everything was accomplished on the promised day. Wow--imagine that. We've been very pleased with the performance so far with electric bills less than half those of the past. This is a good team
