Its one and two star share is level with the typical installer in Columbia. Across South Carolina, 51 of the 101 installers whose breakdown Google has published carry a higher share than this one.

The percentages are Google’s own arithmetic over every review it holds, not a sample we assembled. Separately we hold 18 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

Every company we hold in Columbia, on one axis

0% rated 1–2★65%

Each mark is one company we hold in Columbia whose Google breakdown has been read, placed by its share of one and two star reviews. Colite Technologies is the red one. The amber line is the middle of that set, which includes suppliers and maintenance businesses as well as installers.

What reviewers said

  • 1★ · around April 2026 · the company replied

    They might be decent but they take over a site and their laziness prevents anybody else from using the site they are working on. No care or concern which leads me to believe this is the attitude to the work as well. Just sloppy with it, I see bad work a lot in the South and this fits right in. If they were any better they would know to be ashamed.

    Colite's team is incredibly professional and has consistently delivered on their promises. If you want a company that is dependable, they are the best in the business.

    Colite did an excellent job working with our company from initial planning through system activation. Their professional nature, detailed proposal, installation oversight, and responsiveness were far superior to others we considered. We are looking forward to the seeing the returns on our solar project over the coming months/years.

    We used Colite to install a solar array on the roof of one of our commercial properties and the process was very smooth from start to finish. The Colite team educated us on the various tax credits and incentives and assisted in the energy offset modeling to make sure we fully understood the investment. Would recommend to any commercial landlord/asset manager.

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.

What the company says about itself

Taken from its own website. We have not checked any of it, and a sentence on a website is not evidence.

    Its website also mentions free estimate and licensed, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

    Elsewhere

    • It is also reviewed on the Better Business Bureau. Worth reading before you sign anything: those are a different crowd, and the complaints that reach the Better Business Bureau rarely reach Google.
    • It posts on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and LinkedIn. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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

    Who Google shows alongside them

    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 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.
