EHT solar installations average $2.75–$3.15 per watt installed in 2026. Standard asphalt-shingle roofs fall toward the lower end. Older roofs, coastal salt spray corrosion, tile roofs, or complex designs push higher. Many EHT homes need roof replacement before solar—we bundle it seamlessly.

What Egg Harbor Township Homeowners Say

★★★★★
“We live near EHT High School. They checked ACE’s map, told us our circuit was borderline, and designed a system that was approved on first try. No delays. Roof replacement included. Bill dropped from $380 to under $40.”
— Patricia M., Egg Harbor Township
★★★★★
“Every other company used subcontractors. Their crew did everything. The roof work was seamless—we got a new roof AND solar on the same project. NABCEP certified, thorough, professional.”
— James H., Holiday City
★★★★★
“They pre-registered our SREC before construction started. Locked the rate at $89/MWh. Other companies told us to wait until after install. Over 15 years, that early registration is worth thousands. Smart move.”
— David K., Atlantic County
