    Sumpter took $18,050 for a battery system late last year, to add a battery to my existing solar install. Post payment they ignored me, ignored me, then upon wanting my money back, 'found a battery' in *APRIL* ... and are now completely ignoring me. I highly recommend getting everything in a solid statement of writing OR simply not work with them.

    Very poor customer service. They do not answer their phone calls - and you can't leave them a message because the mailbox if full. They do not return emails. They leave work unfinished and their customers having to detail with their mess. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. If I could have given them ZERO starts I would have. But Google will only allow you to post if you give someone at least one star. In fact, I would give them NEGATIVE stars. Update: Thank you for the response. However, how does that affect the current need we have for you to complete the contracted job you began over 45 days ago? Stil

    They keep not showing up for appointments we have made for a repair we need, and have not called us back. Very disappointing. Use another company - from now on, we will.

    I had an outstanding experience working with Matt and (locally owned) Sumpter Solar Services. From the first discussions to the final install, they were knowledgeable, transparent, and committed to helping me make the best long‑term decisions for my home. They handled everything - design, permitting, installation, and follow‑up, so the process felt pretty much effortless for me. The crews showed up when they said they would, cleaned up when they were done, and clearly took pride in their work. My system is performing great, and I’m already seeing the difference on my energy bills. It’s great t

    They worked very hard to get my system up and running. I appreciate their hard work and patience. Would highly recommend them!!!

    Excellent service and communication. We had an existing rooftop solar array and added 15kWh of battery capacity in late 2024, and every person I worked with from Sumpter was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and really knew their stuff! Highly recommend.

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, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.

    Elsewhere

    • It posts on 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.

    Something wrong here? Tell us and a person will read it.
