  These guys owe me $30,000 from a sale to a close friend that they didn’t finish the install. I had to and passed the inspection. They never paid me for my sale or work and now I’m gonna have to file and get a criminal embezzlement case started due to the nature of the evidence uncovered. I’ve given them multiple chances to pay but Joffre Bolta went into hiding ignoring calls and Matthew Gee the same thing. They have no money.

  Warning! Do not do business! I am sad to write this review after the original post. If I have another chance to pay more and go with a known company... I will! They say you pay for what you get! Joffrey was there in the beginning, but when something was wrong, customer service did not existed.

  Spent 5 months of bad communication attempting to get a project through for a homeowner. 5 star solar pros no showed on 2 different dates and then basically forced a cancelled project.

Topics Google derives from the review text, with how often each appears. A frequent topic is not a good one: “price” turns up in praise and in complaints alike.

• It is also reviewed on the Better Business Bureau and Yelp. Worth reading before you sign anything: those are a different crowd, and the complaints that reach the Better Business Bureau rarely reach Google.

Google’s own “people also viewed” set, in Google’s order. It is Google’s comparison, not ours.

The ones without a link have no page here, either because Google does not categorise them as solar businesses or because we could not match the name to a listing with confidence.

Ordered by how much we can tell you about each, which is not an order of quality. We do not know which of these is better and would not say if we did.

• —The date above is the newest review we hold, which is not necessarily the newest that exists — we hold a large share of Google's reviews, not all of them.
• —We found nothing on a website for this company that states a warranty, a licence or how long it has traded.
• —We do not verify licences, insurance or bonding. Nothing here has been checked against a state licensing board.
• —We cannot tell you what an installation costs, and we hold nothing about the equipment they fit.
