Its one and two star share is 12 points above the typical installer in the Dallas area. Across Texas, 198 of the 728 installers whose breakdown Google has published carry a higher share than this one.

The percentages are Google’s own arithmetic over every review it holds, not a sample we assembled. Separately we hold 325 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

    Very disappointed with both SolarSME and the Generac solar/battery backup system in June of 2025. Since installation, the system has never functioned properly, and getting meaningful service has been extremely frustrating. I continue to get the runaround when trying to have someone come out and diagnose or repair the issue. For an investment of this size (50k), I expected a functioning system and much better follow-through after installation. Still waiting…..

    Disappointing Workmanship Warranty and Customer Service I am leaving this review to share my experience with their workmanship and warranty support. After three years of operation, my solar system stopped producing power due to a loose and frayed wire inside the disconnect breaker box. When the technician arrived, the fix was simple: they loosened the terminal, cut off the damaged copper, re-stripped the wire, and tightened it back down correctly. While the company did cover the physical repair, management claimed that this type of connection failure is "normal wear and tear" after three years

    I had reached out on the Solar Edge website to get batteries added into my solar system that I had for about 5 years (the original company went out of business). The sale team from SolarSME people reached out to me and were kind of pushy but the price was really good. Fast forward through the project I had to pay an additional $4k for a new electrical panel for the whole home backup to be able to function. They kept somewhat to the schedule except near the end where it was very difficult. The install took almost a total of 2 weeks (where my original panels were off for 1 week) and I had to cal

    August 18, 2026. This is another positive update. Solar SME promptly fixed a glitch in my system on July 21. The solar panels and Grid Boss were not communicating properly. Solar SME fixed the problem remotely within one day of being notified. Everything has been working well for the month since then. I am revising my star rating to three stars from the original one star. Although system installation was long and difficult, support service since then has been good. January 7, 2026. This is an update to my original scathing review. My entire system (solar panels and backup battery) has been wor

    I got a great deal on Tesla power wall. The whole installation and service was on par. I'd definitely recommend Solar SME.

    After owning my solar panels for a few years, I received a message in the solar panel app that one of the panels was not producing energy. I called Solar SME to utilize the warranty that my panels came with. My dedicated warranty specialist was Umer. He verified there was an issue via system software on his end and he then promptly facilitated ordering the replacement part needed to fix the issue. I didn't have to pay for the replacement part - it was fully covered under the warranty. The part was FedEx'd to me and arrived within a few day. Then Umer followed up with me to schedule a technicia

    My original installer went out of business and Solar SME was recommended by Solar Edge. Solar SME came through and Umer was a huge help. My system is back online. Thank You Umer and Solar SME

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 free estimate and licence number, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

    Elsewhere

    • It is also reviewed on 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, Instagram, LinkedIn, X, Pinterest and Facebook. 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.

    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.
