    Choosing to install Solar Power is fantastic. Trying to upgrade or repair an existing system is a a nightmare. Companies that worked on our 23 year old system are now out of business, and components we purchased are no longer manufacturered. It's crazy out there, and many companies don't want to touch a system they didn't install. I decided to Google "consultant", and was pretty frantic when I finally got William on the phone. After the call, I told my husband it was like talking to a therapist! William had empathy, and was understanding. He found a company willing to help us, and bring us int

    If You are Considering Solar, you will be Sorry if you do Not Contact SEC I am so glad that while I was looking for information about buying solar equipment for my home that I stumbled upon SEC. William Wood, President of SEC, kindly talked me through the whole process. What a gentleman! He actually encouraged me to get competitive quotes from other providers (like the companies that work through Costco), because he knew that his prices, financing and services would out-perform an apples-to-apples comparison. And was he ever right about that! Rather than buying the lowest cost solution, we tal

    From first to last they were efficient, communicative, skillful, helpful and professional. William called me back minustes after I requested a call and Juan and Maria came out the very next day. This is after I tried to get 6 or 7 other conpanies to do the work and none responded because it was a small job. Juan and Maria did a wonderful job, gave me the best price and solved several problems caused by a previous worker on my Solar panels. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are honest, responsible, trustworthy and kind. Willian checked in with me about the work and stayed informed abo

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 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.
