Bill Anderson, CEO
Professionally Designed & Installed Solar Solutions Without High-Pressure Sales Pitches or Sales Hype
Milestone Solar isn’t one of the biggest solar companies in West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. And we have no plans to become one of the biggest.
Because when you perform several dozen installations a year instead of several hundred, you don’t have to resort to high-pressure salesmanship just to make your numbers. You never have to rush a job through to completion, or cut corners on the way, just to finish in time for the next one. At Milestone Solar we don’t have any technically challenged, commission-paid salespeople, who will often promise just about anything to close a sale.
I’m a technical project manager, not a salesman. I’ve learned the solar photovoltaic (PV) business not only in classrooms, but hands-on, installing and maintaining solar systems in the field. I’m one of less than 100 solar professionals nationwide to earn both the North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners’ PV Technical Sales Certification and their PV Installation Professional Certification (the gold standard of solar expertise). In addition to other credentials, I’m proud to hold Pennsylvania’s Certified PV Contractor credential – whose strict criteria include actual checks of installations and customer satisfaction.
Our approach is that it’s better to lose a sale than have someone pressured into buying – or install a system on a home or commercial building that wasn’t right for solar. I realize that while a solar system is an investment that pays for itself and then some, it’s still too big an investment to make blindly. So I make sure you know and understand every detail about the system you’re considering. I’ll never say, “We’ll have to ask engineering about that,” because I am engineering.
I’ll treat your solar installation with the same attention to coordination and detail I applied to multimillion-dollar projects as a senior project manager and systems integrator at Cisco Systems. And I’ll personally make sure your solar array goes in on time and on budget, with no corners cut, that it performs as promised, and that it gives you a generation of trouble-free, dependable service.

Thank you Milestone for completing a Solar System installation for our home You easily backed up everything you represented to us in our consultations; in fact you exceeded our expectations! Prior to hooking up with your company I researched Solar Power for a while, and then consulted with about 8 different Solar companies. On my last go, I almost signed a contract till they substituted the Solar partner company they said they were utilizing, to a roofing company who had little to no experience dealing with Solar installs. I decided to go with Milestone because [they] were a small company who used their own employees, Not Partners for all installs they do. The amount of engineers on their staff was quite impressive, and the attention they gave to my concerns was a blessing!! They only used the top quality panels and inverters which included the standard 25 year warranty, and their quoted price was well within the price of the other companies quotes!. My decision was very easy, and second place was far off! Thanks again Milestone, and you have helped me find even more appreciation for sunny days!!

The Milestone Solar Team was great to work with from system conception to installation. We were amazed at how quickly and efficiently our Solar Panels and inverters were installed. The team was professional in every aspect. They showed attention to detail, they were courteous and cleaned up after they were done. Even a year after we had our home system installed, they are attentive to our questions and system needs. Good company to work with. Highly recommended.
