18 Years in Business Gervais Mechanical Service LLC is a fully licensed, local, family-run business. With more than 100 years of combined experience, we strive to bring our customers exceptional repair and installation services they can rely on. We offer turnkey solutions for both residential and commercial customers — no job is too large or complex for our expert team.

"Absolute ripoff, along with shady business practices. They were prompt and courteous, but that's about it. The technician came and had to replace a $200 part on my boiler, it took him under an hour to do the work. A simple Google search showed at least 10 places to buy the exact part, all around $200. No other parts were needed for this repair, I researched what is involved. I was charged almost $1000, including their $89 diagnostic fee just to walk in the door. So apparently it's a $600+/hour labor rate? I'm obviously in the wrong line of work. This was not an off hours emergency call either, it was a scheduled appointment in the middle of a weekday. The shadiest part of the entire thing was that on the invoice (that they email you later) they bury all the cost, it's not itemized i.e. labor vs parts cost. It just says replaced (part) = $1000. A super scummy and shady way to run a "professional" business, taking advantage of people who don't know any better. I wouldn't be surprised if they also sell used cars. Never again Gervais. You've all been warned."

"Our heater stopped functioning on Nov 27, 2023 and we called Petro who had done the maintenance on it before and replaced a motor two years ago. They were responsive and a technician came two days later. He worked for 3 hours without explaining what the problem was. Then said he needed to replace the motor. He fixed the problem and left without much explanation. Two days later a bill of $2500 came via email. No explanation, no break-down. I called 4 times over the last 20 days, spoke to 4 different reps and was promised that a supervisor will contact me with the bill details. Nothing happened. Irresponsible customer service and unprofessional behavior. They show all the symptoms of big, bureaucratic, and indifferent service company. I would not recommend Petro if you have options of more personalized services."

FAQs for solar panel installation projects in Fitchburg, MA

The physical construction phase typically requires two to four months following the receipt of all necessary approvals. At the same time, the entire development process from initial concept to operation generally spans three to five years. Factors affecting the timeline include site conditions, workforce size, and project scope. The majority of the development period involves securing regulatory approvals, completing environmental studies, and establishing utility interconnection agreements.

Developing a solar farm requires an average of $400,000 to $500,000 per acre for equipment and installation, excluding property acquisition expenses. Based on industry averages, a six-acre installation typically supports one megawatt of capacity, capable of powering roughly 164 homes. Project economics vary significantly depending on whether land must be purchased or leased, with substantial regional variations in property values.

A solar installation can generate an average of $14,000 to $40,000 annually per megawatt, with variations based on electricity rates and contract terms. Annual maintenance expenses of approximately $15,000 per megawatt must be factored into financial projections. Most facilities operate under long-term agreements spanning 15 to 25 years, providing revenue stability throughout the project lifecycle.

A 20-acre property can support a viable commercial solar installation. Based on industry averages, this area could accommodate approximately three to five megawatts of capacity, sufficient to power 600 to 1,000 residences. This scale falls within the commercial solar farm category, offering enough capacity to achieve reasonable economies of scale while remaining manageable for smaller developers or community-based projects.
