    We are so pleased with CCS! Great company…

    At the end of 2021 Terry and crew installed my array and inverter. They did a professional job at a competitive price. The Solaredge inverter system has performed flawlessly (and I can easily see what each panel is doing in an instant using the Solaredge app). About 6 months ago I had to cut the power to my house for Some unrelated construction, and one of Terry’s employees immediately contacted me to see if I needed anything. I was impressed and feel like they have my back should anything ever happen.

    When we purchased our new dream home in the summer of 2020, we had already decided we would purchase a solar power system. We received a bid from Competitive Choice Solar, and it was significantly cheaper than anyone else. So, with that bid and the word of mouth regarding Competitive Choice Solar that they did great professional installations, we decided they would install our system. It was one of the best financial decisions we have ever made! Not only did they do a professional, clean, and efficient installation, but our savings immediately began! Our monthly electric bills disappeared. We'

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 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.

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.
