    Happy 4th of July to some. I checked the Tesla app yesterday as I sometimes do. Now to find out it hasn’t been producing since June 25 , it makes me so angry. This is the time of year we need to be collecting credits for the winter! Am I supposed to be checking the app every day?!?! If so nobody showed me what to do. Which box is what. I asked if it was normal to have a walkthrough of the new system hardware and was told no. The app works you through trouble shooting. You scan a QR code . Not touching anything else. The led light is blinking inside it means there’s something wrong with the sys

    Can not get anyone on the phone. I think this company is a scam?

    Scheduled a visit for project appraisal but then nobody from the company showed up, never responded to texts, never apologized for wasting my time—don't recommend wasting your own time with them.

    They were awesome! So fast to get installed and up and running. So professional and easy to work with - just the nicest guys! Highly recommended!

    I talked with Matt today. He helped me very much to understand everything about my solar. He's funny, he's caring, and very businesslike with a little touch of funniness. More companies should have someone like him. Thank you for all the information Matt have a great day.

    Venture Homes has the solar process down to an art. Super seamless experience--wonderful, clear communication, and every single thing is handled for you (town permits, CMP, anything that arises). My array looks great and I'm looking forward to much lower CMP bills. Thanks to the entire Venture crew!

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.

As Google published them when we last read the listing, not a live check. Ring before you drive anywhere.

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.
