  I had a disappointing experience with Mark Naylor Solar. It did not go as expected, and communication was very frustrating. Never received an appointment because girl returning calls was very rude and unprofessional.

  they may be good installers but their repair and maintenance suck big time. Called them, they said they'd be in touch, all lies. Finally got my trusted handiman to replace a panel. Wasn't that big a deal.

  Did a pool solar install and every year it leaks. They will no longer stand by their work and their install even though I've had nothing but issues. Owner was dismissive and does not seem to care. I got a bad install and now stuck with it.

  I first met Mark Naylor over 20 years ago. At that time we had just installed our pool. Mark was recommended by the pool company to install solar panels. Then he was just a guy and a truck. He expertly installed our pool panels. We brought him back 12 years to move some of his installation so we could put electrical solar panels. Up and now again to help with a roofing project. Always prompt, professional and reasonably priced. I highly recommend Mark and his company.

  We've used Mark and his team for 20 years for our pool solar heating system. Recently we re-roofed and decided to proactively replace the system although it was performing well and never leaked. Austin was quick to respond with answers, and on a very short advance notice, they were able to quickly remove our panels for the roofing process. After our new roof, Dave and his colleague installed our new panels in about 1/2 day and did a great job. We have found them to be very responsive, professional, and reasonably priced. Our pool and hot tub are in the upper 80s during the spring and summer wh

  Made a call to Mark Naylor Solar and Mark came out promptly to make some repairs to my system. More repairs were needed and Dave and an associate handled those, and then there was one more leak that was so small i had to have them come back but they were prompt in responding and coming back to make sure all leaks were taken care of and my roof was protected from any moisture which could have caused damage. All done at a very reasonable rate. Thank you so much, Mark Naylor Solar.

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.

• Warranty

  “Specialists is the distributor and warranty service center for Aquatherm…”

Its website also mentions family owned and established, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

• 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 Facebook and Instagram. 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.
