    Patricia on the phone was not willing to say where they were located. Couldn't trust the person on the phone. They are listed in San Martin but they would not confirm.

    i wasn't initially interested in solar power until a friend of mine in the neighborhood got a ground-mounted system from Solar Service. Seeing his setup sparked my curiosity. He provided me the contact of jaime, the solar installer who worked on his. I received a quote from them, but wasn't sure if it was good value. So, i decided to do some research online. That's when i stumbled upon a kit for an 8KW system that was about 40% cheaper than the initial quote i got. However, the catch was that i would have to install it myself.

    my interaction with this solar installer turned out to be one of the best experiences i've had with any company. a few weeks after getting my new solar system installed, 14 out of 20 panels stopped working. i've been in touch with the company and wyatt for a few months to get the micro inverters replaced. ashton explained that the issue was due to a power surge during some winter power outages. i'm not an expert on this, but i know my $40k system is supposed to last for 20 to 25 years. it's clear that power outages and power surges can occur, and these should have been factored into the system

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 found nothing on a website for this company that states a warranty, a licence or how long it has traded.
  • 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.
