What reviewers said

    Fill out the form on Shaw Solar’s website to request a quote a few months ago and never heard back. However, starting the very next day I was getting spammed nonstop from home improvement companies. May be a coincidence but it sure doesn’t feel like it. Regardless, not thrilled about the lack of customer service follow-up.

    Initially I though Shaw had done a fine job installing my solar system. However over the years the system needed repairs and service. If was difficult to get Shaw to come out and service the system and each time it was a healthy bill. When my system broke again last month I was told by them that they no longer service the type of system I have. I was rather disappointed and question the ethics of a company that doesn’t stand behind their work, equipment, and customers.

    I would give these guys 10 stars if I could. The team was an absolute dream to work with, from applications and processing, to electric and installation. Seems like everyone truly enjoys what they do and showed up in a way that made a huge home change feel absolutely seamless. Thanks Shaw!

    Shaw Solar just put in two mini split systems. The company has been absolutely amazing to work with. Joseph and his two partners for the 3 days did excellent work. They cleaned up after themselves every day. Usually a company waits until the last day to clean up. They were able to answer every question I had. If you need solar work or mini split systems around Durango Colorado. Shaw Solar is your best choice.

    I had Shaw replace my old 44 panel inverter/optimizer system with a new Franklin inverter/battery system and they were great to work with. It was a somewhat complex retrofit and they were very careful and meticulous. Micah, the crew leader, is conscientious in every component of an installation. Highly recommended.

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.

  • Years in business

    “about helping others and brings more than 20 years of customer service experience and a…”
  • Licensed

    “therapy, and carpentry. He is also a licensed Journeyman and NABCEP certified PV…”

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

Elsewhere

  • Google also lists this company under roofing. A company that does both roofing and solar can handle the roof work a panel install often needs.
  • It posts on Instagram and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.

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.
  • Google itself gives two different totals for this company — 167 reviews on the listing and 123 under the star breakdown. We show both rather than choose, and we cannot tell you which is right.
  • 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.
