    This company sold me solar supplies they did not actually have in stock, which directly caused me to fail my inspection and lose time and money on my project. When I confronted them about the issue and asked for a refund, instead of taking responsibility, they tried to dodge and manipulate the situation, giving excuses and attempting to push alternative solutions I never agreed to. It felt dishonest and intentionally misleading. If you’re working on a project with inspections, deadlines, or permits, do not trust their inventory claims. Their lack of transparency and refusal to handle the refun

    Really happy with the service from this solar company. The crew worked efficiently, stayed respectful around our property, and answered questions without rushing. It’s only been a few months, but we’re already noticing solid savings on our monthly electricity bill.

    I had a great experience working with Tim. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and made the entire solar process easy to understand from start to finish. Everything was handled smoothly and professionally. I highly recommend working with him if you’re considering going solar!

    Our previous solar company went out of business. Our solar stopped working, and we spent months trying to figure out what to do about it. I called multiple solar companies to try and get someone out, but they said they wouldn't do it since it wasn't initially through their company. One phone call here, and we had our solar back up and running in less than 24 hours. Super helpful and kind. They took time to figure out our problem, and walked us through everything they did to help us. They actually fixed some issues the previous company left behind, and now our power production is actually highe

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.

Elsewhere

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

As Google published them when we last read the listing, not a live check. Ring before you drive anywhere.

Who Google shows alongside them

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.

What we don't know

  • 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.
