Got them on the phone long enough to charge me $200 to set up my account, then they ghosted me for the inverter replacement. I’ve been waiting for weeks, regularly calling and emailing their office staff and support on a common thread. I don’t want to deal with a company this unreliable.

If I could give Nerd Power zero stars, I would. They don’t deserve even one star. My experience with this company was extremely disappointing. From start to finish, the level of professionalism was far below what anyone should expect from a solar company. Communication was poor, promises were not followed through on, and there seemed to be very little accountability when issues arose. I dealt with Gabe Kane during the process and was left frustrated by the lack of follow-up and commitment to resolving concerns. The company talks a good game when they’re trying to make a sale, but in my experie

Are these guys still in business? I've been trying to get ahold of them for over two months to have some warranty work completed. They acknowledged the issue in early April but won't confirm next steps. The phone rings until it goes to a voice mail, nobody returns my calls.

Their sales department was great…the install was quick. They severely lack in communication and customer service. Had to follow up a lot to get things done and understand where the project stood. I give the customer service a 0.

Nicely done, clean and quick, crew was amazing and I will definitely recommend to everyone I can. I knew in my gut I should have never gotten Solar or new roof . Insurance went up, solar costs will go up. Should have went with my gut. Bad move for my retired Life extra expense’s. I will have to sell my house in the foreseeable future,. Hard lesson learned.

Jay Turner was an excellent presenter, he really made me feel like apart of the nerd power family.

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.

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.
