Mixed results and rather painful process. As the project install week started, there was no clear line of communication and I had difficultly getting answers. The company wasn't avail or communicative with my roofing company before the start of the job creating all sorts of problems at the start of the project. The week of install was chaotic as both the solar company (Treepublic) and roofing company were not able to work together without arguments and causing me much stress. The rep from Treepublic called my roofing company owner names. He also was rude to me. Because there was bad communicat

I hired Treepublic to install solar panels and a battery backup system. Solar: The solar side went smoothly and works great. No complaints there. Batteries: This part was rocky. The initial installation wasn’t set up for whole-house backup as promised, and communication during that period was frustrating — slow responses, missed follow-ups, and a lot of uncertainty. It took quite a bit of back-and-forth before a technician was sent out. There was a software glitch afterwards that took a few calls to resolve. When the technician finally came, he diagnosed and fixed the problem in about five min

Working with Tree Public was a great experience. The sales team Sean is very knowledgeable and helpful; the owner Omar and the project managers were all available to answer my questions'. I have worked in the trades a long time and have worked with many companies and the team at Tree Public is top notch. I especially want to thank Dominque from the very 1st. phone call to the day my project was complete she was right there in my corner. What an amazing group of people. Ordell was thorough and kind as the project coordinator and always available. Many Thanks, To the team at Tree Public. Gus Vin

We installed a solar system in our house two years ago. We then moved to a new area unexpectedly and installed a solar system with a Franklin battery. Treepublic installed both systems. All of their representatives were easy to work with and the systems worked flawlessly. We refer friends to Treepublic without hesitation!

We’re up & running with solar power and delighted with the result! The process was not without its road bumps to be honest, but I’m giving 5 stars here because ultimately the end result is what matters and I feel like Tree Public went and above to resolve our issues which is the sort of company I want to be in business with - someone who listens, responds and pulls out all stops to fix any problems. Our solar is now working extremely well.

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.
Established
“ideas, products, and securities since 2008. We have been interested in the…”
Its website also mentions licence number, but not in a sentence we can quote cleanly.
Elsewhere
- It is also reviewed on ConsumerAffairs, the Better Business Bureau and 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 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.
