Its one and two star share is 4 points above the typical installer in Detroit. Across Michigan, 32 of the 84 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 80 review texts for this company, quoted below. Google publishes review ages rather than dates, so every date here is approximate.

Ordered by the share of one and two star reviews, weighted by how many reviews stand behind it. It ranks review records, not workmanship.

Rude customer service. WOW. (Edit- I love the gaslighting response from owner) You don’t have the record of it I guess but you guys hung up on me mid sentence. Work on your support team

We were so excited to get Solar. That was back 4 months ago. We never heard from Strawberry Solar again after we were approved. We thought they just dropped us (they did, later). I heard from Detroit Edison that everything was approved on their end, that was in May. We finally heard from a sales representative they had too many big 100k jobs and could not spare anyone for a 10 panel job; oh and our city didnt give them permits via email or fax so they became disgruntled and canceled us. "The straw that broke the camels back" is what we were told. WOW really? I would NOT EVER recommend this com

Bad customer service. Does not follow up with customers regarding large estimates.

It’s important when you’re spending a lot of money on something like a major solar investment to be working with the right people - and I’m here to say Strawberry Solar is solid in every way. They did everything they said they would do - when they said they would do it - and the work was first rate. From the electrical work (they work with some damn fine electricians) to the panel install to getting the permits - the work was fantastic. And they’re nice guys!! 5 star - highly recommend and we love our new system!

My only complaint is that I didn’t go solar sooner! I couldn’t recommend Strawberry Solar enough. The team was professional, efficient, and had my entire system installed in just one day. They really are a well-oiled machine. They also installed a Level 2 EV charger for my car, which made the whole process even more convenient. We’re over the moon with our system. Even with the A/C running, our DTE bill was only $12 this month. If you’re thinking about going solar, Strawberry Solar is the company to call!

Strawberry solar installed a 15 kva array of panels along with the equipment needed for operation. We had a couple of disagreements along the way, however from start to finish, I felt that they were a class act company and would certainly choose them again.

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
“utility rate hikes and hello to guaranteed long-term savings, resilient backup…”
Free estimate
“Charging Not sure where to start? Free estimate, no sales pressure. Usually back to…”
Established
“solutions for residential homes since 2010. We are dedicated to delivering…”
Licensed
“inspection, we handle everything. Our licensed professionals install your system…”
Its website also mentions financing and years in business, 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 LinkedIn, X, Instagram and Facebook. A page that stopped posting years ago tells you something a listing will not.

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.
