Serving Fairfield County, CT

Solar Panels & Solar Roofs
for Fairfield County.

From Stamford's shoreline to Ridgefield's colonials, Fairfield County covers a wide range of homes and two different utilities. We handle the differences so you don't have to.

Why Fairfield County

A varied county.
A team that keeps up.

Fairfield County runs from dense shoreline cities like Stamford and Bridgeport to wooded, larger-lot towns like Ridgefield and Wilton, and it's split between two utilities, Eversource and United Illuminating. We design for the property in front of us, and we know which utility and incentive program applies before we ever submit paperwork.

  • ✓
    Two-Utility Expertise

    We handle interconnection with both Eversource and United Illuminating, depending on your town.

  • ✓
    Historic District Experience

    Familiarity with design review in towns like New Canaan and Darien with strict historic overlays.

  • ✓
    Coastal & Inland Design

    Corrosion-resistant systems for shoreline towns, standard residential systems for inland communities.

  • ✓
    CT RRES Enrollment

    Every system enrolled in Connecticut's Residential Renewable Energy Solutions tariff.

Local Knowledge

One county, two utilities, one team.

⚡

Eversource & United Illuminating

Eversource serves most of the county, including Stamford, Darien, New Canaan, Norwalk, Westport, Wilton, and Ridgefield. United Illuminating serves Bridgeport, Stratford, Trumbull, and part of Fairfield. We confirm your utility and manage interconnection either way.

📋

Local Permitting & Historic Review

New Canaan and Darien both carry active historic district commissions, and shoreline towns add flood-zone siting rules for ground-mounted equipment. We prepare submissions built for whichever applies to your address.

🏘️

Coastal to Inland Design

Shoreline exposure in Norwalk and Westport calls for corrosion-resistant hardware; inland towns like Ridgefield and Wilton are more standard residential installs. We design for the property, not a one-size template.

💰

CT RRES & Tax Exemptions

Every Fairfield County system we install is enrolled in Connecticut's Residential Renewable Energy Solutions tariff, and the state exempts solar equipment from sales tax and property tax reassessment.

🛡️

Licensed, Bonded & Insured

Legacy Custom Solar is fully licensed to work throughout New York and Connecticut, including Fairfield County, and every installation is backed by our workmanship warranty in addition to full manufacturer coverage.

Roofing & Solar, One Crew

We're a division of Legacy Custom Builders, a 30-year custom construction company. In Fairfield County, that means the same crew handles the roofing and the solar, so nothing falls through the cracks between contractors.

Common Questions

Before you reach out.

How do I know if I'm served by Eversource or United Illuminating?

It depends on your specific address, even within the same town in some cases. We confirm this early in the process and handle interconnection paperwork with whichever utility applies.

Does New Canaan or Darien require historic district approval?

Parts of both towns fall under local historic district review. We assess whether your property is affected and prepare the design documentation those commissions typically require.

Are shoreline homes in Norwalk or Westport more expensive to outfit with solar?

Not necessarily more expensive, but the hardware spec is different: corrosion-resistant fasteners and flashing built for coastal exposure. We factor that into the design and quote from the start, no surprises later.
