Why Celina Homeowners Choose Gus’s Solar
Gus Petrakis puts his own name on the truck, and that changes how the work gets done. We’ve spent over 29 years in this trade, and in Celina we’re the company neighbors recommend when they want a quote they can verify against their own utility bill. Homeowners in Light Farms and Sutton Fields have had us out for everything from full installs to repair work on systems other companies walked away from. One call brings Gus back. The 90-Day Done Right Promise is in writing on every job, and a live person answers our phone 24/7. That’s not a sales line. It’s how we operate.
We’re locally owned and owner-operated. The price quoted is the price charged. No signature wanted tonight, no “this deal expires Friday” routine. If a salesman needs an answer tonight, the answer is no. We’d rather you take two weeks and think about it, because the math we build off your actual bill will be the same when you call back.
Solar Services We Offer in Celina
Solar Panel Installation
We design systems around Celina’s real conditions: CoServ interconnection limits, HOA-facing roof planes, and panels rated for the hail we actually get. Bring us a bill, we’ll bring you the math, including the year-25 output number, not just the day-one sticker figure.

Solar Battery Storage & Backup
CoServ’s buyback rates make Celina Solar Battery Storage & Backup worth a serious look. We install Enphase and FranklinWH systems sized to your actual overnight draw, so you’re covered when the grid drops and when export credits don’t add up the way a brochure said they would.

Solar Panel Cleaning
North Texas pollen and construction dust settle fast, especially in neighborhoods still under active build-out. Our Celina Solar Panel Cleaning team works on schedule and shows you the production difference. In Celina, a spring cleaning after oak and pecan pollen peaks makes a measurable difference.

EV Charger Installation
Most Celina homes have 200-amp panels from the builder, which usually means a Level 2 charger can go in without a service upgrade. We’ll check the load calculation, pull the permit if needed, and get your EV Charger Installation - Celina on the wall.
Solar Panel Maintenance and Monitoring
We monitor systems after install and call you when something looks off. That’s the difference between an installer who disappears and one who sees your production dip before your bill spikes. Gus’s crew handles the fix, not a sub.
Solar Panel Repair
Hail, squirrels, microinverter failures, wiring issues. We diagnose and repair systems other companies installed and then abandoned. Free second opinion on any written estimate, and $40 off any repair over $200.
Commercial Solar Installation
For Celina businesses on CoServ commercial rates, we design systems that offset real demand charges and stand up to Texas weather. We quote actual year-25 output, not a sales deck number.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Celina
We run jobs all over Celina, with most calls in the master-planned communities along Preston Road and east toward Custer Road. Typical response time across the area is same-day or next-day for most calls.

Why Celina’s Climate & Housing Affect Solar
Celina sits on open Collin County prairie at around 800 feet elevation, with over 230 sunny days a year and very little tree cover. That’s excellent for production, but it also means your panels sit fully exposed when the next hailstorm rolls through the North Texas corridor. We spec IEC 61215-certified, Class 4 impact-rated panels from brands like Qcells and REC for Celina roofs because the hail risk here is real, not a sales script. Homeowners already paying elevated roof-replacement premiums should not put up glass that can’t take a beating.
Housing stock here is another factor. Celina is almost entirely post-2015 new construction in master-planned communities: large two-story homes of 3,000 to 4,500 square feet with complex multi-plane rooflines and multiple valleys. That creates excellent roof area for solar, but the racking layout needs more care than a simple single-plane suburban roof. Most Celina neighborhoods have HOAs that, under Texas Property Code Section 202.010, cannot ban solar outright but can and do restrict panels to non-street-facing roof planes. We factor that into every design so you don’t end up with a system that violates your deed restrictions or faces the wrong direction for production.

FAQs About Solar in Celina
Most Celina residential systems run $18,000 to $38,000 before the federal tax credit, depending on roof size, panel brand, and battery storage. Call (877) 550-6892 for a quote built off your actual CoServ bill, not a generic estimate.
Texas Property Code Section 202.010 says HOAs cannot ban solar outright, but they can restrict panels to non-street-facing roof planes. We design around your specific HOA’s rules from the first site visit so you don’t end up with a violation letter.
CoServ’s buyback structure differs from Oncor territory in Frisco and McKinney, and the interconnection paperwork is co-op-specific. We’ve done enough CoServ applications in Celina to handle the process without the delays installers from outside the area often hit.
Yes, and it’s often easier and cheaper on new construction because the panel is already 200-amp and the roof is in new condition. In neighborhoods still under build-out, we also check CoServ transformer capacity before submitting your interconnection application to avoid export-limit surprises.
For most calls, we’re out same-day or next-day. Call (877) 550-6892 and a live person will schedule you, not a voicemail queue.

What Celina Customers Say
"Gus's own crew did the install. Not a subcontractor who had never met him, which is what the big outfit quoted me and could not tell me who would actually be on my roof."
- Aurelia Santibanez"He modelled it on my actual bill and the current export rates rather than the old ones, and told me plainly that the payback was longer than the door knockers had claimed. Then it came in about where he said it would."
- Octavius Redmond"Production dropped one spring and I did not even notice. Gus rang me, because he watches the monitoring, and had it sorted the same week."
- Sunita Balakrishnan
