Why Lewisville Homeowners Choose Gus’s Solar
A lot of solar companies are good at one thing: getting a signature. Then the crew that shows up isn’t the one you met, the office doesn’t answer, and the warranty is a piece of paper. Gus’s Solar is the opposite in every way that matters for a Lewisville home. The name on the truck is the name on the building. The crew that installs your panels is our own crew, background-checked and uniformed, not a subcontractor we’ll never see again. Gus has put his name, address, and license number on every job since 2011, and when something goes wrong, he’s the one who picks up the phone. Homeowners near Lake Park and throughout the older 75057 neighborhoods around Old Town Lewisville have had us out for everything from full installs to emergency repairs. The 90-Day Done Right Promise is in writing: if it’s not right, we make it right, and one call brings Gus back.
Solar Services We Offer in Lewisville

Solar Panel Cleaning
North Texas pollen hangs on panels in a stubborn film, and after a dry spell, dust from I-35E and the surrounding construction adds up fast. Our Lewisville Solar Panel Cleaning service handles panels without damaging the glass or voiding manufacturer warranties, using soft water and proper equipment.

EV Charger Installation
Whether you drive a Tesla or any other EV, our EV Charger Installation - Lewisville team installs Level 2 home chargers safely off your panel with the right dedicated circuit and load calculation. If you’re already going solar, we’ll time the work so your charger rides on the new system from day one.
Solar Panel Maintenance & Monitoring
Gus monitors your system after install. If output drops unexpectedly or an inverter flags an error, you’ll get a call from us before you notice it on your own. We handle warranty work, inverter swaps, and performance diagnostics.
Solar Panel Repair
Storms, animal damage, failed microinverters, bad connections. We repair all of it, even if we didn’t install the original system. You’ll know the cost before we start, and if it’s over $200, you can take $40 off.
Commercial Solar Installation
Warehouses, office buildings, retail storefronts along I-35E. We design commercial arrays sized to the building’s load profile and available roof space, with the same no-pressure quoting we give homeowners.

Why Lewisville’s Climate & Housing Affect Solar
Lewisville sits squarely in the North Texas hail corridor, one of the highest hail-frequency zones in the country. That means one question should be answered before any panel goes on your roof: does this panel carry a Class 4 impact rating? If it doesn’t, a May hailstorm can turn a 25-year investment into an insurance claim. We spec panels accordingly and often time installations to ride along with insurance-covered re-roofs after storm damage.
The housing stock matters just as much. Lewisville grew up early for a metroplex suburb. A substantial share of homes in the 75057 ZIP were built in the 1970s and 80s, when 100-amp electrical panels were the standard. Those panels can’t legally accept a solar interconnection without an upgrade to 200-amp service, which adds real cost but also upgrades your home’s safety. In the older core around historic downtown Lewisville, we still find original Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels. Those specific brands are documented fire hazards, and solar interconnection legally triggers a full replacement. That’s a $2,000 to $3,500 line item, and we tell you upfront, not after the permit application stalls.
Summers here are hot: 230-plus sunny days a year and July highs that sit at or above 100°F for weeks. Panels produce well in those conditions, but heat on aged composition shingles causes thermal derating, which trims output on the hottest afternoons. We build that reality into our production estimates rather than handing you a cheerier number we can’t deliver. And because Lewisville sits inside Oncor’s deregulated territory, you’ll also need to choose a retail electric provider that pays fairly for your solar buyback. We’ll walk you through that step, not leave you to figure it out on the back of a utility bill.
Pricing for Solar in Lewisville
A typical Lewisville home, with a newer roof and a 200-amp panel already in place, can expect a residential solar system to land between $14,000 and $28,000 before the federal tax credit, depending on system size and equipment choices. That’s a real spread, and we get more specific only by reading your actual bill. A panel upgrade, when needed, adds roughly $2,000 to $3,500 depending on the home’s existing wiring. Battery backup typically runs $8,000 to $14,000 installed on top of the array. We quote Panasonic, JinkoSolar, and Canadian Solar panels often in Lewisville, paired with Enphase or SolarEdge electronics. Gus’s quote includes everything: equipment, your own crew, permitting, and the utility interconnection paperwork. Bring us a bill, we’ll bring you the math.

FAQs About Solar in Lewisville
A typical Lewisville residential system runs between $14,000 and $28,000 before incentives, and homes in 75057 with original 100-amp panels should add roughly $2,000 to $3,500 for a required 200-amp panel upgrade. Call (877) 550-6892 to get an exact quote from your actual Oncor usage history.
If your home was built before about 1990 and still has a 100-amp electrical panel, yes, Oncor and Lewisville’s permitting process will require a 200-amp upgrade before your system can interconnect. We’ll check your panel during the free estimate and tell you exactly what’s needed.

What Lewisville Customers Say
"My previous solar company went out of business and left me with an array nobody would touch. Gus took the system over, replaced two dead microinverters, and it has run properly since."
- Ferdinand Kaltenbrunner"Four different companies knocked on my door in one summer and every one of them wanted a signature that evening. Gus has a shop with his name on it, gave me the numbers on paper, and told me to take a fortnight and think about it."
- Winifred Castellano"Honest quoting and good workmanship. He is not the cheapest quote I got, by some way, and he told me that himself and explained what the difference bought. I chose him anyway and I am glad."
- Alistair Fennimore
