    May go solar, but won't use these guys. They charge $150 to come out and tell you what it may cost. After being transferred to "somebody tht has a better grasp on the numbers". It turned out to be the president of the company. I was completely dumbfounded by how rude he was. He kept interrupting me and told me that when he was finished I could talk. He informed me that not going solar was an "economic losers bet" He stated that it was the right thing to do environmentally and that anybody who cares about the environment would go solar regardless. I mentioned concerns about the environmental im

    Terrible service after the sale. There are other companies in VT with labor warranties that cover a lot longer then what they provide. The owner is condescending and rude when trying to work with. Do yourself a favor and hire someone else!

    I am all for supporting local businesses but there is no need to be rude, condescending, and price gouge. We were initially happy with the installation in 2016. Fast forward 7 years and one of the optimizers in one of our panels went. We contacted Same Sun and were advised our warranty was expired but they would be happy to send 2 technicians out to the tune of $290 for 2 hours of work. My husband opted to change the optimizer out himself which sent Phil into a tizzy but he was willing to ship the free part to us (we offered to pick it up). After my husband installed it (in 30mins if that) the

    They have been a pleasure to work with. Their staff is talented, professional, honest and passionate about what they do.

    Same Sun of Vermont is terrific. Starting in late 2017 with my first array, they have been my provider of all things solar. As our electrical needs have grown, primarily switching from propane to electric heat pumps (mini-splits) and most recently to two electric vehicles, our electrical consumption has grown, and Same Sun has been right there with us to expand our generation as our needs have grown to now three arrays, two of which are roof-mounted and the most recent ground-mounted. Same Sun is a pleasure to work with -- always accommodating and very responsive. Also, unlike so many other ve

    The experience has been exceptional from the initial conversation through the completion of the project. Fine people, and the experience and the installation have been great.

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 family owned and established, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

    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.

    Something wrong here? Tell us and a person will read it.
