Gopal is an absolute legend.

He is quite busy and for great reason. Once you are able to schedule something with him, he gets things done with extreme professionalism.

I had a solar system from awhile ago but needed some critter guard installed. My old Envoy system was also out of sync. Gopal inspected my panels, realigned them, installed the guards and reprogrammed my Envoy all with 2 hours. He sent me photos showing his work.

His pricing is also reasonable and transparent.

Any future problems with my solar, Gopal will be my first call.

Gopal (Herc du Soleil) is the top choice to make when installing solar on your property. Gopal handled all the challenging steps along the way: facilitating permits, changes to hydro billing, shopping for the right system, professional installation, follow-up, and smoothing every wrinkle we had. He made a complex process seem easy. I found him trustworthy, responsive, patient, knowledgeable, and most importantly, able to explain in layman's terms a relatively complex process for someone who is doing this for the first time. I wish I had found him sooner so I could have avoided spending money on individuals who did not have the proper know-how to deliver what I wanted. If you're considering solar panel installation, give him a call, you won't regret it

Herc Du Soleil (Gopal) is a true professional. I have years of Solar experience and asked for his help on a Tigo upgrade install at my site. Gopal was very responsive, followed up with me quickly, placed orders and completed the install within the span of 1week. I’ll definitely lean on Herc Du Soleil for my future Solar needs. Thank You!

Gopal assisted me in diagnosing an issue with my system. Very patient and kind took the time to explain what he thought the issue could be. He didn’t instal the system and has never been here! We found the issue and fixed it. No charge! Highly recommend his service I will be calling him if I ever need work done in the future.

Gopal of Herc Du Soleil did a great job installing 24 panels at my property in Toronto. He was very knowledgeable, professional, fair, and adaptable. It was a difficult and long delayed project due to city permitting requirements, etc. but Gopal was helpful throughout the process and was able to adapt to the particulars of my project even though it was not a standard installation. (I installed a large custom metal carport and he needed to attach to it with special fasteners and hardware in freezing cold weather). Gopal handles the paperwork and most of the physical work himself so you know that you are getting someone that knows what they are doing on site. Everything turned out great and we are very happy with the final product. I would definitely recommend Gopal and Herc Du Soleil.

I had an emergency repair required due to some raccoon roof damage under my panels. Within 48 hrs the issues were all repaired and a big weight was off my shoulders. Efficient and honest. Definitely recommend

Gopal helped me install my panels and connect everything.
He was amazing and is the best solar panel installer in GTA hands down.

We chose Gopal at Herc Du Soleil for our solar project after looking at his exceptional Homestars reviews and getting quotes from a couple solar providers. He provided a very thorough quote in a timely fashion, and his was very competitive.
Gopal was very responsive to texts and emails throughout, often responding late in the evening or on weekends. We got a new standing seam metal roof installed at the same time, and he was fabulous at coordinating parts of the installation process with the roofing job, as well as finding new technology to allow installation to occur with low profile and with no fittings piercing the metal roof, thanks to S5 Clamp technology. With a couple months delay between quoting the project and being able to get it going after getting permits in order, slightly higher powered panels were available and he upgraded the project to those without changing the price.
He and his workers did a great job installing the solar panels in the middle of a cold snap, working for about 8 hours straight on a cold day to get all 22 panels installed in one day, which was more time-consuming than usual due to them not simply installing on a rack system as usual.
He personally worked a few hours on another day to install the inverter in our garage, and even carefully cut some plywood of ours to cover up the studs and insulation where the inverter needed to be installed (location of a former window). The installation was clean and he worked with us to get the internet link up and running with our router for monitoring and maintenance.
He and his electrician spent one more day to get the disconnect installed and the system hooked into the main panel.
After the system was brought online, we noted some spikes in the power generation with a few periods where production would drop off during mid-day when we'd expect top production, even on sunny days. I emailed Gopal who said he'd keep an eye on it, and from that day, production was excellent. He had upgraded the software and worked with SolarEdge tech support to adjust parameters on the inverter to avoid some power surges from Toronto Hydro from causing the inverter to shut off at times.
His responsiveness, knowledge and work ethic are exceptional, and Gopal and Herc Du Soleil come with my highest recommendation.
(Any wonkiness in the panels in the photos is due to underlying irregularities in the metal roof, as the panels were installed without a rack system)
