    I had solar panels installed by them, and from the moment i got on the phone with them everything was fine, then when they get to my house for inspecting and what not, the employees were absolutely RUDE. they said it would be a fairly quick job and turned out to be the exact opposite. they were loud, rude to me and my family, and then did not install them PROPERLY. Causing them to come out MULTIPLE times and wasting my time, If i had just gone with another company entirely i would have avoided the rude employees and their TERRIBLE customer service. they avoided me many times and when they did

    Installed solar on my grandmas house, told her she would be getting a tax credit and then come to find out she won’t get it. They basically took advantage of the elderly. She is now paying more for her solar than she paid for power alone & SHE STILL PAYS AMEREN. Scammers. Stay far away…

    Not the best work, left some clients we subcontracted out work to in a terrible position with an open loan balance of $150k and the project was never completed.

    National Solar just installed solar panels on my house and performed an outstanding job. I do not normally post reviews, but this company deserves to be recognized for the service they provided. I highly recommend National 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.

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.
