The Verdict

ArtGreen Construction aced the fundamentals but fell short on follow-through in a handful of cases. We found 48 reviewers praising their workmanship and 50 highlighting responsive project management, yet a small subset describes delays or miscommunication that left them waiting weeks for resolution. In one case, a homeowner had an inverter fail two months in and only learned about it when the owner emailed first, then watched parts delays stretch for a week during a heat wave. Another customer praised the company for showing up in the middle of the night to tarp a roof when unexpected rain hit, illustrating that when ArtGreen is on top of a problem, they mobilize fast. We noticed a pattern: 25 reviewers explicitly mentioned post-installation support with zero complaints, but permitting and utility coordination slowed timelines in multiple accounts. The owner talked one client out of adding a battery and another out of extra panels, both times running a cost analysis to prove the upsell wasn't worth it. (If you've ever met a contractor who refused to take your money, you know how rare that is.) Installations typically wrap in a single day, crews replace rotted wood without charging extra, and the team handles inspections and utility paperwork end-to-end.

If you want an installer who won't upsell you on equipment you don't need and will replace broken inverters without pointing fingers, ArtGreen delivers. Just confirm your timeline expectations upfront, especially if city permits or utility approvals are involved.

Reviews That Shaped Our Verdict

Tyler Angelos
GoogleJan 31, 2024

Tyler Angelos has had a solar system installed by the company for over five years with zero problems. He praised the owner’s integrity as the standout part of the experience — when Tyler asked about upgrading panels the owner ran a fresh cost analysis each time and showed why adding panels wouldn’t make financial sense given Edison’s changing rate plans. Rather than pushing more business, the owner steered him away from unnecessary expense. The crew also managed to mount panels on his metal shingles after several other companies said they couldn’t. Over the years the system has saved him roughly $300–500 a month on electricity even with Edison’s plan changes; what lingered most was the owner’s numbers-first honesty combined with the practical ability to work with a tricky roof.

Tyler A.
YelpSep 27, 2019

Tyler A. waited six months after installation to be sure the system held up before writing, and now he’s confident describing the whole experience. He found the sales process refreshingly simple — most of the quoting happened over email, the final price landed about one-third less than other quotes, and the crew built a system sized so his typical bill plunged from roughly $300–$500 down to about $5–$15. The team even talked him out of buying a battery, explaining that with rapidly changing tech and infrequent outages it would be a poor value. A real test came when the local utility botched some wiring and shorted a few panels; the company came out, handled the repairs, and refused to treat it as the homeowner’s problem. They also set honest expectations up front, warning that a large tree would shave roughly 20% off performance — Tyler kept the tree and still sees strong output, though he’ll admit shaded and rainy days become annoying. Overall he found them professional and easy to work with; what stuck with him most was their willingness to fix a utility-caused issue and give straightforward, cost-saving advice about the battery.

Rosemary P.
YelpMay 17, 2020

Rosemary P. hired ArtGreen Solar in December 2019 to get a 7.59 kW system installed on her single-family house — 23 Panasonic HIT panels tied to a SolarEdge string inverter with optimizers and desktop and mobile monitoring — because she needed the job done before the December 31, 2019 deadline for the 30% federal tax credit. She used EnergySage to gather bids, and the estimate from ArtGreen looked like the best value. Owner Haim Vagas came to the house personally, walked through the proposal, answered every question, and talked her out of adding a battery backup when he decided it wasn’t a good value. That refusal to upsell mattered: as a single woman who’s used to feeling patronized on home projects, she found his straightforward, respectful approach instantly reassuring and awarded him the job without pressure. Haim handled the paperwork end-to-end — permits, city reviews and LADWP coordination — so she didn’t have to lift a finger. The crew completed the physical install in a single day, which impressed her, but the city introduced a couple of annoying inspection hiccups: a missing sticker and a requirement to move end panels on the south side of the roof, a nontrivial rework.

Matt chose the company for a home solar project and appreciated how straightforward the sales process was — no pressure and no upselling. He ended up with a fast, efficient installation that looked beautiful on the roof, and the crew left the site tidy and professional. A few years after the install, the system is still working great, so the quick, clean install has continued to pay off.

Mike Thacker brought Haim and his crew onto his San Gabriel Valley property to install a solar array and a battery system. He found the team efficient on-site and appreciated that they walked him through the whole installation process so he wasn’t left guessing what came next. What stands out is the pairing of tidy, fast workmanship with practical, hands-on guidance — the kind of detail a San Gabriel Valley homeowner will notice first when choosing a solar installer.
