Poorly managed installations with little to no communication.

It’s been HORRIBLE! Trusted the Rep. Hafsa (nice girl until, she wasn’t). I was told my roof was good condition and they had a roof evaluation rep stating we can move forward with the solar installation. Come to fine out upon heavy rains—my roof actually, needs replacement. However, this was after I had blindly signed the waiver to proceed forward over the summer. The installation is not complete-but the solar panels were already installed when the rain came—I have leaks throughout my house. They will NOT remove the panels to fix my roof unless, I pay $7,700 —

This is the worst Solar company do not do business with these crooks! It’s taken them over 3 years to complete my Solar project and it’s still not completed! They wort return calls or emails. They need to be shut down! Please respond to this post with a working phone number!

I am very happy with the service provided by Skyline through Robin Acal. He was very patient and clear with me and helped understand everything which is a no brainer to switch. It’s been a few months since my system got turned on and he came back to help me understand how everything is working. I’m so happy with how he set me up. No I’m getting credits and saving a lot on bill. He also explained how the consumption of electricity works.

I'm so happy with this decision. For years I had high bills, especially for electricity. I'm a senior citizen and I have to pay the entire bill myself. A woman visited me and explained this clean energy program in detail, and then Rafael came to answer my questions. He even helped me replace a roof that I'd been trying to do for years, but I couldn't get a loan approved. Thanks to him, I got it replaced, and my monthly payment is now less than what I was paying before.

I can say a million things about skyline but first of all they are local to me! And they are the best installer in the area I got my panels done in 2 weeks!

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.
Elsewhere
- It is also reviewed on Yelp and the Better Business Bureau. Worth reading before you sign anything: those are a different crowd, and the complaints that reach the Better Business Bureau rarely reach Google.

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.
