    I am so disappointed in this solar company. We purchased and had our solar panels installed approximately 4 years ago. Before we purchased, we knew we had to have a roof replaced in a few years. We mentioned this to the salesmen, he replied that his company would come in, take them off, and reinstall at no cost. We trusted this salesmen (big mistake) words and believed this was placed in the contract. Well now it is time to replace our roof. We called the company...this company in Royal Oak closed, they are now in Indiana and Illinois. No one told us that they had moved out of the state and th

    Without a doubt the worst company I've ever done business with. They scheduled installation 6 months after the deal was signed, and when the installation date came they had to reschedule because they forgot to both order the parts, and obtain the proper permits from the township. Once the parts came in the installation date was finally set, and then it was moved again. Not all of the panels were able to be installed because some were broken so I had to wait for those to be replaced. Finally we were able to do the inspection which failed, that was almost 2 months ago and I have not gotten a res

    This solar is a joke they lied to me during the time of installation and on the Quote the payment for the solar is twice as much as they said it would be and the solar panels them self is twice as much as they said. They also said I get a 13k backnafyer the first of the year for having a business out of there and that was also a lie I would never suggest modern mills solar to anyine unless you want to pay twice as much as you are right now. I jave tried to contact them for over a year now and they will not answer or call or email back they will screw you over do not to solar it is a joke and i

    Tyler, John and Sebastian did a great job on our installation. They had to tear up and replace a brick walkway for underground installation. They worked nonstop to get the job done. Thanks guys!!

    Friendly and thorough staff Chris is very knowledgeable of the ins and outs of the product and could answer any questions we had.

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.

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.

    Its website also mentions free estimate, 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.

    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 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.
