Its one and two star share is 6 points below the typical installer in the Boulder area. Across Colorado, 122 of the 216 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 10 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

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

    These people are skilled and pleasant to work with. Price? Never got alternative bids. They seem most agile, working on the roof, getting the racks set, the panels, the wiring, the inspection. They taught that I should Xcel as a huge battery. Sunny months, electrons get stored, winter stored electrons get used. I suspect there are other solar guys that are also good. But Flatiron gets a good score in my book.

    Rare customer responsiveness, curtesy, and delivery of service! Exceptional in every regard. If only all service & installation companies had guys like Bob at the customer interface. I don't give compliments easily - these guys are have that lost balance of personal interaction and technical skill. Fully endorse this company!

    I had a great experience working with Bob this past week-end. He is helpful, knowledgeable and just a nice guy! I was having an issue with my solar panel installation and was frustrated that my installer's "technical support" was not the least bit technical and had no idea how to help me trouble shoot my system. She told my she would return my call after consulting with her team and never did. I also contacted the inverter manufacturer but was told I must go thru the installer. Arghh. So, I finally reached out to a couple of solar panel installers in Boulder county and Bob called me back withi

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.

  • Warranty

    “advantage is the roofing companies warranty is preserved, the roofers do all the…”

  • Years in business

    “at all, we are happy to help. Bob has more than 10 years of experience and 100 installations…”

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

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.
  • It posts on Pinterest, X and Facebook. 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

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 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.
