Its one and two star share is level with the typical installer in the Seattle area. Across Washington, 40 of the 99 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 20 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.
Every company we hold in the Seattle area, on one axis
Each mark is one company we hold in the Seattle area whose Google breakdown has been read, placed by its share of one and two star reviews. Solora Solar is the red one. The amber line is the middle of that set, which includes suppliers and maintenance businesses as well as installers.
What reviewers said
1★ · around August 2024 · the company replied
We were initially very pleased with the system. It is a nice design and performance was more than we expected. Unfortunately, a little after the first year, the inverter died. Solora Solar failed to monitor the system and catch this, so we missed several weeks of prime production period this summer. We are back online only due to direct assistance from the inverter manufacturer. Follow-up from Solora Solar was virtually nonexistent. If you are interested in solar, I am sure they will come up with a great design and all kinds of helpful information. Maybe hire them for that, but then take it to

Our experience with Solora Solar has been excellent. The entire system from design to install was very smooth and on schedule. The system has been working perfectly for five years. The battery backup kicked in every time the power went out. We highly recommend Solora Solar.

Syed and his team did an amazing job. Very easy to work with and delighted with the results. If you’re able to have Syed use Marv to install your system then do it!

We worked with Syed to install a solar panel and battery system for our home and had a great experience. Solora's competitive bid provided a detailed breakdown of what to expect from the install, the equipment, and the yield. Syed was very responsive and was happy to answer our questions on every aspect of the install. After the installation, he ensured that the system functioned well and that everything met our expectations. I'd recommend them to anyone interested in solar energy projects.

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.
24/7 availability
“Support Solora Solar is available 24/7 for the ongoing support of your…”
Established
“Solora Powering one roof at a time since 2005 Our specialty is solar energy…”
Years in business
“They have been in this field for over 15 years so they are very knowledgeable about…”
Its website also mentions warranty, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.
Elsewhere
- It is also reviewed on the Better Business Bureau 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.
- It posts on YouTube, LinkedIn and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.
