Its one and two star share is 39 points above the typical installer in the Lakeside area. Across California, 70 of the 1,529 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 9 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

    Made an appointment for consultation and no one called me. Waste of my time. If they don't care about a potential customer how will the quality of install and post install service be? I'm not willing to take that chance are you?

    DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY! My wife and I hired In Innovative Solar to move and upgrade our panel and instal a car charger among other things. Alejandro came for the estimate and did a great job and communicated everything well. Was also on time. So we went with them for our project. They collected 10% to pull permits and get SDG&E on board. Then they got the date wrong. So they were supposed to come out the next day. Ok, whatever. The next morning SDG&E was there to move the cable and told me the box should’ve already been installed. After sever calls I finally got in touch with Sophia. She

    Canceled my first appointment with short notice. Second appointment they were late and didn't respond. Find a different contractor for your work.

    It would be nice if they had an on call technician for weekends.

    Arrived precisely on time to give me a quote for a breaker and power outlet for an EV charger, and were the only ones that both came to the house and opened up the panel before providing a quote, instead of me sending photos. Arrived early to do the work and got it done with no issues.

    I had a great experience with the innovative solar power team. Awesome company that really know their stuff and have good customer service. They did great work upgrading our panels in a timely manner and left no mess behind. Highly recommend them for all your electrical needs as well as solar.

Reviewer names are not published here. Negative reviews are shown first because they are the ones a listing hides, not because they are more representative.

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.

  • It posts on YouTube, Instagram 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 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.
