    It’s hard to understand where all the glowing reviews are coming from. Maybe they were written by the company. Our system seems to be working now but we have had terrible, really terrible problems communicating with this company. They pretty much show up whenever they want to and they don’t tell you what’s going on. They don’t care how they inconvenience you. Communicating with them is a nightmare. I would never recommend them for anything.

    I don't typically write letters extolling the virtues of a companies employees, but after working with SGE, I felt it was warranted. From my initial contact with Doug, he was great to work with.

His approach and rapport was a key reason why I went with SGE in the first place. Megan, was extremely helpful with scheduling of material and the install, and pa

Everything came together smoothly, and the quality of the work really shows.

    We worked with a number of different solar companies over the last few months to evaluate the potential for adding an array on our roof. Our property is a challenging one for solar, with our roof not really oriented in the right direction and some complicated shade issues from both existing trees and potential future growth of immature trees on our own property and adjacent properties owned by our neighbors. Doug from SGE was the ONLY salesman / company that would sit down with me to accurately model the height of existing trees and discuss the impact of future tree growth. With the accurate m

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.

  • Warranty

    “America. They also offer a 25-year warranty on their product. Because Enphase…”

Its website also mentions free estimate, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

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.
