A note from our family
Hi,
Jeremy here from Mile High Solar Care.
I wanted this first newsletter to feel personal, because Mile High Solar Care has always been personal to us.
It’s Meral and me. It’s our family. Many of you took a chance on our family business. You trusted us to show up, do the work right, and stand behind it. Those individual decisions are what allowed us to build what we have today.

More than a company
One of the biggest things our family has walked through has been Meral’s cancer journey. I don’t want to turn something that personal into a business story, but I also don’t want to pretend it hasn’t shaped us. Experiences like that change the way you think about time, work, family, and the people who show up for you. It has made me more grateful that Meral and I get to build this life and this business together—and more determined that, whatever Mile High Solar Care becomes, it stays grounded in real relationships.

October
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. This year, you’ll see our logo change for October as our small way of recognizing something that has touched our family personally. Awareness matters, and for us, this one hits close to home.
|
Our family has also grown in a slightly unexpected direction: Nova, the rescued female pigeon Meral and I are raising.
We found her at a customer's home and decided to raise her. She was only a couple of weeks old when we found her.
|
|
Then — just a couple of weeks old
|
|
Now — all grown up, in her kiwi finest
|
That probably gives you a better picture of us than an About page ever could.

Our family is growing
We’re also welcoming Dilan and Emma to the Mile High Solar Care team.
Dilan and Emma are partners, so this feels less like welcoming two people to the team and more like our extended work family getting a little bigger. Dilan is a certified electrician, and having him join us expands what our team can take on: HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general handyman work. Emma is joining us in field support.
For customers, the important part is simple: more capacity, more services, and the same personal standard.
We’re building toward multiple crews and dependable recurring maintenance across the Front Range, but growth only matters to me if we keep the accountability we started with. I’m still in the field, and I still want customers to know who they’re dealing with.

Holiday lights
The holiday season is around the corner, and honestly, this is one of my favorite stretches of the year. Our Christmas and holiday light installs are some of the most fun work we do — there’s something genuinely good about helping a family make their home a little brighter for the holidays. If lights are on your mind, now’s the time to reach out before the calendar fills up.
Fall is also the right moment for the unglamorous-but-important stuff: window cleaning and gutter cleaning before winter settles in. Clean glass, clear gutters, and one less thing to worry about when the snow comes.
If lights, windows, or gutters are on your fall list, just use our contact page and we’ll get you on the schedule.

Know what normal looks like
Before winter settles in, take a quick look at your solar monitoring and get familiar with what your system is producing.
Seasonal changes are normal. The point isn’t to worry about every dip—it’s to know your system well enough to recognize when something looks genuinely unusual.
Shade, dust, pollen, bird droppings, debris, and changing site conditions can all affect what you see.

A few useful reads
From the blog

Filed an extension for your 2025 taxes? If your solar was placed in service in 2025, the October 15 filing deadline is coming up. Meral and I put together a reminder of what to gather and when to ask a tax professional about Form 5695.

Two federal court rulings have challenged the cancellation of Solar for All. Colorado’s program has not restarted, but we explain what the rulings could mean for its $156 million award.

Birds and squirrels can shelter beneath solar panels. I wrote a homeowner’s guide to signs of nesting, installation, costs, and warranty questions worth asking.

Until next time
We plan to send a note like this about twice a year, so I want each one to be worth opening—a little about our family, a little about what we’re building, and something useful for your home or solar system.
Thank you for betting on a family business. Meral and I don’t take that lightly.
If you have a question or a story to share, use our contact page — I read them all.
— Jeremy
