Its one and two star share is 5 points below the typical installer in Tampa. Across Florida, 361 of the 675 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 528 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

    Please stay away from this company. They will file a lien against your property for unfinished work. I contracted them to install a Tesla battery in December 2025 and they haven’t still completed the installation. They failed the county inspection twice for many reasons. The county informed them that the battery location was a hazard and told them to install a Ballard in the garage taking away my parking space. Florida electric failed to place the battery in a safe location initially. Then they requested $4,500 to relocate the battery. When I refused they filed a lien against my property. Now

    Don’t recommend. I’ve been paying them monthly for a maintenance service plan since December 2025 and it’s April 2026 and I’m still waiting for the repairs since December.

    Extremely disappointed in the lack of responsiveness in regards to our installation. They didn’t hesitate to answer calls when it came to selling us the system:doing site inspection after which we paid 2/3 of the total cost, but scheduling the installation has been a nightmare.i can only imagine what it’s found to be like to schedule a repair when something bad happens.

    I signed up with their Silver tier maintenance program in the summer of 2026. Signing up was very easy, and they got right to assessing the state of my solar system, and shipping the parts to my door. The price is good, too.

    Hello my name is Agustin, recently 4 months ago after searching for the best company I decided to go with meta wat for the excellent service and agents they have! Joe Is the best he make me and my wife understand so clearly what this switch really was and the benefits this offers. And I can’t complain actually I’m grateful and happy I made this huge change with them! Guys if you are picky like me and want to see what solar is about give a shot with them! It’s been only 4 months and already I can see the savings with no electricity bill. 100% recommended

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 Angi, 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.

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.
