How The Solar Guys Came to Be

MEET “THE GUYS” (AND ONE WOMAN) THAT MAKE UP OUR TEAM

The Solar Guys was founded by John and Marilyn Teel in 2001 in response to the rapid demand for quality, innovative natural daylighting products, and Solatube was the obvious choice. John holds a state of Florida Roofer's License and has held a state of Florida General Contractor's license for nearly 20 years. The Teels have been building beautiful Florida homes in the Ocala/Gainesville area since 1997. Since 2001, John and Marilyn have grown The Solar Guys from a small home-based company into the largest Solatube dealer in the United States.

Our territory includes Alachua, Marion, Citrus, as well as Lake and Sumter counties. In May 2010 we acquired the Orlando market as part of our service area. This includes Flagler, Volusia, Seminole, Orange and Osceola counties. Further expansion occurred with the acquisition of Pasco and Hernando counties in October of 2010. In 2011, we diversified our product line to include Hüper Optik window films In September 2015 we acquired the Jacksonville market as part of our Solatube service area. This includes St. Johns, Putnam, Clay, Bradford, Union, Columbia, Baker, Duval, & Nassau Counties.

As a part of our commitment to renewable energy, our employees and our customers, The Solar Guys have placed product quality, business integrity, and customer satisfaction at the core of business model.

Marilyn A. @ The Villages, FL
I have three Solatubes which has made a real difference in my house,making it much lighter. I thought I wanted another one in my living room and asked the opinion of the technician that came to my house to check something else for me. He pointed out to me that where I wanted the solatube placed would make my fan unusable because it would give the effect of a strobe light and he didn't think I would be happy. I really appreciated his honesty instead of just agreeing with me and making the sale. I would and do recommend the Solar guys to friends.

Steve G. @ The Villages, FL
The solatubes were installed over a week ago. Following the installations we had a very heavy rain with high winds. No leaks what-so-ever. I honestly was concerned about this since we just moved in two weeks prior; in this beautiful new home. So far so, good. We couldn't be more satisfied with both the 14" and 10" installations.

John M. @ Tavares, FL
Rob did an excellent job. He was very informative and didn't try to up sell me on options I could not afford. He was very clean and the quality of the work was excellent. We are very happy with the extra light the two solar tubes he installed. I'm sure we will also see a reduction this summer with the attack fan he installed as well. Thanks again!

Clarence K. @ The Villages, FL
Larry is a skilled craftsman in this profession. As an example, he went up into our attic to make sure that he was installing our solar tube in the best position taking all the duck work into consideration. This is not an easy task in a Villa attic. Thanks for a job well done.

Priscilla M. @ Inverness, FL
Our contact with this business was professional and courteous. They looked into our needs, provided services and material that met those needs and were prompt in doing so. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for any of the products offered by them with the confidence that they too would be as pleased as we were. Thank you for everything !!

Fredrick S. @ The Villages, FL
Service was very good. The technician was able to do the install in a very cramped space. this is the third item we have purchased from the Solar Guys

Carlton D. @ The Villages, FL
Our service man was most courteous and thorough. He was neet and left no trace that he had worked in the room. We are very satisfied!
