Sunrun

Each mark is one company we hold in Bakersfield whose Google breakdown has been read, placed by its share of one and two star reviews. Sunrun is the red one. The amber line is the middle of that set, which includes suppliers and maintenance businesses as well as installers.

  Be aware if anything goes wrong with your system after installment, they will charge you $500 just for coming out. Oh and let’s just hope whatever the issue the panels are having are covered under “warranty”. These solar companies are very sneaky. Now I’m forking over $500 I don’t have right now, and my panels are not paid off still 44,000 in debt 😭😭😭😭. I was told they would be sending someone very soon to replace the piece that was not working and they never showed up. I’ve emailed them 2X called 2X. I have 49 panels 😩I’m only generating 50% of the energy I was promised. This is a comple

  Very Professional Install and process from start to finish! Amazing team they have and great job! Fernando was Great! My wife and I were not happy with the current solar that was on the house and Fernando came over after helping a coworker of mine. He was very knowledgeable and broke down our power usage compared to system we already had. He was able to show multiple options and allowed my wife and I to pick the best one for our family. Hes very hands on and wasnt pushing us into anything we did not need. Overall very happy and we feel lucky to have Fernando as our Solar Guy!

  From start to finish, great customer service. We will be saving thousands of dollars a year by adding panels.

  Jason Martinez is the reason I choose to work with Sunrun. Jason also helped my brother. The experience was effortless on my part. Jason took care of all the heavy lifting. Most importantly Jason informed me of each next step so there were no surprises. I highly recommend working with Jason!

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.

Taken from its own website. We have not checked any of it, and a sentence on a website is not evidence.

• Warranty

  “of contract, 5 year roof penetration warranty, 24/7 system monitoring Who…”

• Free estimate

  “Enter your zip to start your free quote Do you own your home? Yes No Next…”

• 24/7 availability

  “full service for life with 24/7 monitoring Sunrun Subscription Plan…”

• Years in business

  “for the energy your panels produce over 25 years—replacing part of your utility bill.”

• It is also reviewed on 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 Pinterest, X, LinkedIn, 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.

• —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.
