    Update....... March 2025 Please read full Review... When I first spoke to Don I was very apprehensive as I did not know him or his solar panel installation company. 6 years later well to put simply today 3/25/25, spoke with the owner after several attempted calls. When he called me he told me he is retire and this company was no more and he couldn't help me with a repair on panels that he installed. He told me to call "climax solar". I would not use this company knowing that they do not stand behind the installations. I am saddened.

    Solar King installed our solar panels about 4 yrs ago. To date, the panels work well and it is convenient to track usage via app. Lots of money saved. However, the installation was a bumpy process. They sub-contract the electrician work. The electrician was extremely unreliable, e.g., he would say he'd arrive in a time range, arrive 3hrs later or not at all with no call and lots of excuses. He was very disrespectful and unprofessional. When the work was inspected after it was completed(as required by law), he had to come out again to fix it. He complained the entire time, blaming the inspector

    Very happy with our system. Exceeding our expectations for output. Don and his team are super responsive. Return calls and text the same day. Would recommend Solar King should you be considering a system for your home.

    We're very happy with our Solar King install and excited to be using solar power! Don King made sure everything worked out just right. It takes a while from start to finish- don't worry about it if that happens for you!

    Solar King did a solid job. There were definitely some bumps in the road, including a site plan that initially did not accurately reflect our roof pitch. The project took nearly 6 months to complete; most of these delays were related to a slow permitting process rather than problems with SK. The price was very competitive and I felt good about the quality of the electrical contractor. The project passed inspection on the first try. I don’t have a means of comparison, but Solar King got the job done and I’m grateful for that. Now we are saving money and reducing our impact on the environment.

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 ConsumerAffairs and Yelp. Worth reading before you sign anything: those are a different crowd, and the complaints that reach the Better Business Bureau rarely reach Google.

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.
  • Google publishes no street address for this company, so we cannot say which town it is based in. Livonia is the area its listing was returned for, not an address we hold.
  • 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.
