    TGE cold called and knocked on our door and rang our door bell at 8:15 pm on a Tuesday evening in Upper Arlington, OH. Our exterior and interior lights were both turned off. Just an outrageous sales practice for what claims to be a legit, reputable organization. Truly baffling decision making from the sales rep and TGE’s sales leadership team. I couldn’t care less about their product or how it well performs. This group has no idea how to market their service. Figure it out, TGE.

    The young man that sold us the service was delightful to work with. That's where my satisfaction ends. If I had known I was going to have this horrible eyesore on the back of my house I would never have consented to the installation. Because the person doing the work did not do their job site inspection adequately beforehand, and make sure they could go through the attic, they made this UGLY mess that goes over my gutter and down the back of the house. It resembles the Mousetrap game. When I complained and suggested a different way the tech refused, saying it would cost them more and be more t

    A huge shoutout to John Milner for being with us from start to finish. He was really helpful and explained to us how the process would go. We ran into some hiccups with our HOA, but John and his team were able to connect us with a fellow homeowner who went through our pains, and we were able to get the approval and installation done pretty quickly. We have been really happy with solar panels thus far!

    We needed our panels (20) removed and replaced for a roof replacement. Barry provided a reasonable quote. The work was done on time and as described. One issue was discovered at removal (rodents gnawing on wiring) and a reasonable remedy was identified communicated and implemented. I hope I don’t need TGEs service again but would go to them if something was needed.

    We had signed on with a different company that ended up going out of business during our process. Loie was able to get us in with TGE and had installed in less than a month. They were easy to work with and very Professional.

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 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.

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.
