    BEWARE!!!!! This is the worst company ever!!!! Since they put solar in my bills have doubled consistently now for years, and when they put the solar in, they damaged my roof. There are hundreds of screws and nails protruding through what was once by nice overhang, wraparound porch. Once they get their money you are then not important and if you call them with a problem, they’re rude as hell.

    I have never left any review in my entire life, but this company is beyond disappointing. Our electric bill was over $500 and we were even gone for 3 weeks. When we checked the system, the monitoring app shows that we have not made any energy since April. When this system was sold to us, we were told that they warranty 10 years of monitoring-- he even said anytime something is wrong with the system, they will know guaranteed! It's been down for 3 months and we were the ones who made the discovery. The rep even said that if we make less than the minimal energy, we will get REIMBURSED to get us

    Esmay electric. The owners are only helpful when you are installing a new system. Warranty is the worst service we have ever experienced. Run around is their game. We will never recommend this solar company to anyone.

    Having some issues with the warranty on my leased solar unit. Esmay electric has been nothing but excellent with the house visits and keeping me informed as to the progress involved with the warranty.

    Very professional, excellent service and pointing out unisource's blunders. A huge thank you to Tod & Cole.

    Tod and Cole came out to perform some warranty repairs on my solar. They were prompt, friendly and professional. From installation to any interaction with Esmay we have had a good experience with them.

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

    “40 years. They installed the system over 6 years ago, we expanded it this year to…”

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

Elsewhere

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

As Google published them when we last read the listing, not a live check. Ring before you drive anywhere.

Who Google shows alongside them

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.
