What reviewers said

  • 5★ · around August 2026

    Super professional, super knowledgeable, and on time. I hired these guys to remove and replace my panels so I could get the roof replaced. They worked fast, safe, and there were zero issues getting me back online. They even helped me clean my panels when they came down. I now have a new inverter warranty and they're helping me monitor my production. Would recommend. Worth the price.

    Solar Panther exceeded my expectations. They were up front with pricing and time schedule. And they could tell me exactly who would be doing the actual work because everyone was local. Other solar companies couldn’t do that because they brought different contractors in from out of town and couldn’t give an accurate schedule for the work. The battery backup generator eliminates the need for a noisy gas generator!

    Ben and his team at Solar Panther delivered top notch service. My solar options were thoroughly explained along with the associated costs and government rebates that were available. I was kept aware of the project timeliness and next steps. Highly recommend for service that shines!

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.

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.

  • Warranty

    “roofers on your side, you’re guaranteed expert installation every time.”

  • Insured

    “must be properly licensed and insured in their state, and be committed to…”

  • Licensed

    “Elite®, a contractor must be properly licensed and insured in their state, and be…”

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

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.
  • It posts on YouTube. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.
