    I am suspicious of the 5 star reviews on here. They seem to all have been written around the same time. Also a red flag because there are no 2,3,or 4 star reviews. Either 5 stars or 1 star. My husband and I are giving them a resounding 1 star!! We wish we could give negative stars. We also wish we had read reviews before we signed anything with SunStor Solar. Our experience is similar to so many on here. We have had panels on our roof and a battery,etc installed on our house since July 13, 2021. We were told it needed to be inspected by the city. We have yet to see anyone from the city. My hus

    I got my solar installed more than 2 years ago and it has been the worst experience with this company I been paying for my solar to the financing company and then allso paying the electric company because the company’s agents are negligent and I been trying to get in touch with the office for over 6 months and they don’t even called back.

    Sonia and Will at Sunstor Oroville have both been open, helpful, accurate, and honest as I have considered and gathered information about a home generator system. I can recommend them highly and without reservation.

    I really enjoyed working with this company. They were very helpful in each step of our solar journey. I would recommend using SunStor solar for anyone interested in using solar. I reached out to Josh and he was easy to reach and responded to my questions.

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.

Elsewhere

  • 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.

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 found nothing on a website for this company that states a warranty, a licence or how long it has traded.
  • 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.
