Gansett Solar

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

  Some hiccups with scheduling but I am looking forward to having solar. Well the system was installed over 2 months ago and the system is still not functional. This company has a communication problem. SDG&E is waiting on them.... I tried to get updates but was brushed off and told I didn't have to do anything else. That was not true. They also gave incorrect information about cost of power and they have not explained how the system works. Find a more experienced company.

  Converting to solar has been one of the best decisions we've ever made. We are confident that we will never again have to pay for electricity at our home. The people at Gansett Solar are honest, helpful, and accommodating. If you're considering solar power, please talk with them.

  I can’t say enough good things about my experience with this company. Chris Hurley took the time to answer all my questions along the way and never left me hanging for a response. The team that installed my panels were professional and efficient. Tyson, my project manager, was also splendid with prompt responses to any questions I had, as well as contacting me with updates before I even needed to reach out to him. Job well done!! Thank you so much. After meeting with more than 6 different companies, I’m so glad I chose your!!

  After trying to work with a number of other solar companies, I finally ran across Chris and the team at Gansett. I was in a crunch to get approval from my local Historic District Committee at the same time as my metal roof. Gansett was a great partner - they were able to gather all the info to get the project approved, in time to piggyback on the in-progress metal roof HDC approvals. They worked well coordinating with our metal roof installer (ECMR) to keep our roof warranty intact; and were able to add our 30 panels + battery before winter set in. We're very pleased with our install and produ

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.

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, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

• 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.

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.

• —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.
