Throughout his life, he designed and implemented off-grid structures while serving as a military leader, survival training expert, construction professional, and wildland firefighter. A retired Army veteran, Rick now supports the team at Off Grid Unlimited as a trusted advisor, offering his expertise when needed.

Our Services

Complete analysis of your target homestead including potential for alternative energy solutions that make sense. With connections to some of the best electricians, plumbers, excavators, carpenters, well drillers and log home builders we can help you get to the finish line.

What our customers are saying

Bramble M.
What an amazing company! Rick was quick to respond and work me into his busy schedule! He fixed multiple issues that were originally done wrong by another local firm and causing headaches. Can’t adequately express my gratitude for having the job done right and how quickly he accomplished multiple tasks. He is a veteran, big plus in my book. Great work ethic, considerate of his surroundings, polite, and super friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Called Rick to get an initial assessment of options for utilities on my property. Rick was very accommodating to my schedule which is difficult to work around. We met on the property and spent several hours walking around looking at potential solar locations and evaluating water sources. His knowledge of the landscape in North Idaho was truly amazing and the options discussed were not what I was expecting. His goal is to do what's right or the client regardless of how much he can make. His attitude and willingness to tromp through the very overgrown forest was inspiring. After the visit he followed up with a written report with recommendations. Would definitely recommend this group for any off grid solutions. A+ in my book.
