System still not working after inverter replacement. Now with a roof full of paperweights after paying a hefty sum for what should have been a quick easy job they will not stand behind their work. 7/12/26 Still not even on the schedule for t

    UPDATE: I went to the Sun Solar office in Sauget/Cahokia and, let me tell you, it was a sorry site. Walked into the call center area, there was junk and wires and stuff scattered everywhere. The place seemed eerily quiet, and my first impression was that the building had been abandoned. I wandered through the cubicles and found one sole woman working, and she was seemingly not on the phone taking a phone call. She went and got Zach, who took down my information and said he would talk to his manager… but I have little hope in a resolution at this point. It seemed like they were the only two peo

    Sun Solar is great at rushing you into a contract, appearing transparent upfront and through the installation process. They have great relationships with city and electric inspectors who take half a look at the work and decide it’s approved. Once installation is complete and they have the money (40k), good luck getting service requests answered any other time going forward. I’ve been on the phone with them for 2 weeks, talked with 4-5 different employees who aren’t able to get a date marked on the calendar. They insist I need to pay an invoice upfront before they’ll schedule a request, and hav

    Sun Solar started off Great in February. After the contract was signed, they came out and did the Site Survey within a week, even coming back to get better views of the Roof when it was not as windy for the drone. Then it came to a halt. I have an Erie Metal Roof (50-year warranty). Sun Solar was unable to successfully deal with the Erie Metal Roof, so after 5 Months the project was cancelled.

    Thank you, John Luzynski and Sun Solar! I reached out to them a little over two years ago to learn about their services. John provided me with all the information I needed up front with complete transparency and made the whole process incredibly easy. Two years after installation, our system is still running perfectly and delivering the exact performance we were promised. 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 financing, free estimate and established, 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.

    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.
