Real Installs, Real Specs.

No stock photos, no marketing renders. Every featured install lists the actual hardware, the actual location, and the actual install date — because “field-tested” is not a slogan here. When a Central Virginia homeowner hires HOLISTIQ, they get a system built the same way we would build our own, using the same inverter and panel hardware we trust on our own roof, wired to the same standard we would inspect before signing off on a final permit.

Electrical breaker panel installation — HOLISTIQ Building Systems, Central Virginia
// OWNER — JOSH SMITH · GOODE, VA

“The dude across the table is the one doing the work. We don’t do broken promises.”

Josh grew up in a family of contractors. His grandfather, now 82, still pours concrete. That work ethic — the kind bred into your bones, passed from one generation to the next — is the foundation HOLISTIQ was built on. After serving in the United States Navy, Josh knew his path was working for himself, bringing the same discipline, integrity, and precision to every electrical, solar, and energy recovery project he touches.

As a certified electrician, certified solar installer, and Zehnder America-listed ERV specialist, Josh brings a rare combination of credentials to every job across Central Virginia. But what truly sets HOLISTIQ apart is the promise behind the name: the person who sits across the table during your consultation is the same person who shows up to do the work. No subcontractors, no middlemen, no handoffs, no broken promises.

Every project at HOLISTIQ is treated as a field assignment — scoped on site, designed with real hardware, permitted through the Commonwealth of Virginia, installed by hand, and commissioned in person. It is how Josh learned to work in the Navy, and it is how every residential, commercial, and industrial customer in Central Virginia experiences HOLISTIQ Building Systems and Services.

Common Questions.

The honest answers we give every homeowner during a field consultation, written down. If your question is not here, call Josh directly — the phone goes straight to the truck.

Q / 01How much does a solar panel installation cost in Central Virginia?
The cost of a residential solar installation depends on your roof size, energy consumption, and whether you add battery storage. Most systems in Central Virginia range from $15,000 to $35,000 before the federal 30% solar tax credit. During your free on-site consultation, Josh will assess your property, review your utility bills, and provide a written estimate with exact hardware pricing, installation cost, and a projected payback window — no guesswork, no upsells. Many Virginia homeowners also qualify for local and state incentives that further reduce upfront cost, and HOLISTIQ will flag every program you are eligible for before you sign anything.
Q / 02Do you handle all permits and utility coordination?
Yes. HOLISTIQ handles the entire permitting, inspection, and utility interconnection process for every project. From pulling electrical permits at the county level to scheduling the final inspection and coordinating with Appalachian Power or your local utility for solar interconnection, we manage every administrative detail. Permitting and inspection coordination is included in every quote — there are no hidden administrative fees and no paperwork on your plate.
Q / 03What areas do you serve?
HOLISTIQ serves a 100-mile service radius from our headquarters in Goode, Virginia. This covers Lynchburg, Bedford, Moneta, Madison Heights, Rustburg, Evington, Stewartsville, Arlington, and the surrounding Central Virginia region. Visit our service areas page for a complete city list and coverage map with population and service details.
Q / 04Do I need a panel upgrade before installing solar?
Not always, but many homes with older 100-amp or 150-amp electrical panels will need a service upgrade to 200-amp before a residential solar array can be interconnected. During the initial field consultation, Josh inspects your current panel, runs a load calculation, and advises whether an upgrade is required. If it is, HOLISTIQ can combine the panel upgrade and the solar installation into a single project — often saving you time, permitting fees, and money versus hiring separate contractors.
Q / 05What is energy recovery ventilation (ERV) and do I need it?
An energy recovery ventilation system exchanges stale indoor air with fresh outdoor air while recovering both heat and moisture from the exhausted air stream. This dramatically improves indoor air quality while minimizing heating and cooling loss. As a Zehnder America-certified installer, HOLISTIQ installs premium ERV systems that can recover up to 90% of the energy in the outgoing air. ERV is particularly valuable for tightly-sealed modern homes and new construction in Virginia’s mixed-humid climate, where both heating and cooling costs are significant.
Q / 06Can you install an EV charger at my home?
Absolutely. HOLISTIQ installs Level 2 EV charging stations for all makes and models — Tesla, Ford, Rivian, Chevrolet, BMW, and more. Installation includes a dedicated 240-volt circuit from your electrical panel, the charging hardware itself, and any necessary panel capacity upgrades. Most residential EV charger installations are completed in a single day. Call (603) 777-2596 for a free field estimate and load calculation.
