    I had a very disappointing experience with this company. They initially came to my home to perform energy-saving improvements, including inspecting my windows and doors and installing a new thermostat for my air conditioning system. About a week and a half later, the thermostat stopped working. I called multiple times to report the issue, but their customer service was extremely poor. It was very difficult to get anyone to answer the phone, and I had to make repeated calls before someone finally came out. They replaced the thermostat, but the new one also didn’t work. Over several visits, they

    This company need to be sued then they’ll stop damaging ppl homes. They lied say they’ll repair things. They don’t repair they made multiple damages to my home. Things that wasn’t damaged or working. No longer work things that wasn’t damaged are damaged. They make excuses don’t except damages they’ve caused. Do yourself a favor don’t allow these liars in your home. You’ll end up spending a lot of money making repairs you didn’t have before. Inspector John is very rude. No mask or shoe covers. Walked through my home opening every closet enter every room. Rooms & closets that wasn’t worked on. F

    Incompetent, not very knowledgeable, rude, make promises they don't keep, the whole thing is a giant scam. They offer you things they have no intentions on giving you. I wouldn't send my worst enemy to this place.

    I had a great experience with Highlands Energy from the first time I called customer service I spoke with rep Marissa. She was so friendly and helpful. She made me feel comfortable talking to her that every time I had a question I would call to speak with her. The person who came to enroll us into the program was Victor he was also so Friendly and helpful in the enrollment process. Overall I had a great experience and will definitely recommend to my family and friends.

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.

  • Established

    “homes, businesses and the community since 1985. Our partnerships with the largest…”

  • Years in business

    “We make solar solutions simple. With more than 65 years of residential solar experience…”

  • Bonded

    “Trade Partners’ licensed and bonded contractors are here to help with all…”

Its website also mentions licensed, 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 LinkedIn and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.
