What reviewers said

  • 5★ · around August 2026

    Solar Maxima put 17 kW solar system for my home and my Pepco bill went from $700/month to less than $10/month. I have been referring this company’s services to my friends and family. He was also helped me claim 30% federal tax credit and Maryland grant. I highly recommend the company and its owner.

    Solarmax was the only reason I didn't lose my mind over working with SME solar. Easy to communicate with and responsive to my questions and concerns.

    The first project that Otabek worked for me was a 70 panel detach and re-install job. He and his team were extremely professional, organized and efficient. He communicated openly and quickly throughout all steps of the process and the project was completed very quickly. Since then, I have used and plan to continue using him and his team as my primary source for all things related to solar and roofing. Thanks again Otabek, you have been a blessing!

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.

    Its website also mentions 24/7 availability, 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.

    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.
