What reviewers said
5★ · around July 2026
The best part about working with Solar Alternatives was how easy they made everything. I didn’t feel overwhelmed by the technical details because they explained things in a simple way. My solar system is running smoothly, and I’m happy with the results.

I was nervous about switching to solar at first, but Solar Alternatives made the decision much easier. They walked me through the benefits, handled the installation process, and delivered exactly what they promised. Great service from start to finish.

We added a Tesla Powerwall battery to our existing solar setup. The team at Solar Alternatives helped with the financing paperwork. Installation was clean and quiet. Having whole house backup has been a game changer during summer storms.
Reviewer names are not published here. Negative reviews are shown first because they are the ones a listing hides, not because they are more representative.
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
“had solar alternatives install them over 10 years ago. I recently had trouble reading…”
Licensed
“members include electrical engineers, licensed electricians, certified roofers, and…”
Its website also mentions warranty, free estimate 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.
