Solar under Tallahassee's tree canopy
Tallahassee is known for its canopy roads and big live oaks, and shade is the first thing to plan around here. A tree that looks harmless at noon can block a roof for hours in the morning or late afternoon, so our site survey maps shade through the whole day before we settle on a layout.
Many Tallahassee homes also have room for a ground-mounted array or panels on a detached garage, which can beat a shaded main roof. Interconnection rules depend on whether you're served by the City of Tallahassee or a co-op, and we handle that paperwork for you.
Honest about shade
If your roof is too shaded for solar to pay off, we'll tell you, and show you whether a ground mount or a smaller system makes more sense.
- Full-day shade mapping before any design
- Roof, garage and ground-mount options
- Interconnection paperwork for your utility
- Battery backup for storm-season outages

“Hired Steve and his staff for maintenance issues after our previous installer went out of business. He was very clear about the upfront cost for service calls. Showed up on time, worked until the job was finished late into the night, then came back to make sure things were working and helped hook up my app.”
“[The MSM Solar Team] was amazing — super knowledgeable, friendly, and even able to fit me in earlier than scheduled. [They] handled all the warranty equipment replacements; I didn't have to do anything but call the first time.”
“Needed solar work on two separate occasions and MSM made it a priority to respond within a couple of days each time. The technician even helped mitigate a roof leak after removing panels. Pricing was fair with no hidden costs.”

Straight answers
Do you install solar panels in Tallahassee, FL?
Yes. MSM Solar LLC installs, services and expands solar systems throughout Tallahassee and the rest of Leon County, along with nearby Fort Braden, Havana and Quincy. Site surveys and written quotes are free.
Can you repair a solar system in Tallahassee that another company installed?
Yes. We service any brand and any age, including systems left behind when the original installer went out of business. We quote the service-call cost on the phone before we drive out. Since 2022, we have a 100% repair rate.
Is solar worth it in Tallahassee with all the trees?
Often, yes, but it depends on your lot. We map shade through the whole day first. Where the roof is too shaded, a ground mount or an array on an outbuilding can still produce well.
