Guyou Construction reviews

The Verdict
Guyou Construction is the installer you want on your roof. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a crew that treats workmanship like a reputation they can't afford to lose. One homeowner watched them paint the conduit to match both the Spanish tile roof and the oatmeal-colored wall below it. Another came home from a day trip to find the panels installed and the yard cleaner than when they left. We counted 832 mentions of exceptional workmanship, and just 14 complaints. The professionalism runs deeper than tidy job sites. In 664 reviews praising project management, customers describe crews who show up on time every day, explain each step before they take it, and finish installs in two days instead of two weeks. When one skeptical retiree worried about roof damage, the team walked him through every stage until the panels passed inspection. A year later, a supervisor named LeRoy followed up unprompted to confirm the system still performed. If you want the cheapest quote in town, keep shopping. But if you want an installer who'll paint your conduit to match your house and show up in the rain to patch a leak the same day you call, the extra cost buys you peace of mind.
If you're weighing cost against reliability, know that Guyou charges a premium but earns it with crews who treat your roof like their own. You'll wait less, worry less, and actually get a follow-up call a year later.
Reviews That Shaped Our Verdict
Joon had solar panels installed on his roof last year and, when a rainstorm revealed a leak, he called Guyou. He reached Bree, who arranged for roofers to arrive later that same day; the crew showed up in the rain and patched the problem on the spot. He waited a year to post a review because there wasn’t much rain to test the repair right away, and after that time there haven’t been any more leaks. The detail that stuck with him: a same-day response and a repair done in the downpour that has held up since.
On his Spanish-tile roof home, chris easley appreciated that the subcontractor crew handling a SunRun installation took the extra step of painting the conduit to match both the tile and the oatmeal-colored exterior — a small detail that made the array look integrated. He clarified this review focuses on the installers, not SunRun. The crew communicated clearly before, during and after the job, arrived on time, walked through the plan with him, completed the work and cleaned up so thoroughly that when his family returned from a daytime outing the yard looked undisturbed except for the new panels. Workmanship held up well; a subsequent inspection required a few minor tweaks and the team made those corrections quickly and without fuss. What stood out most was the attention to finish — the painted conduit and the nearly invisible cleanup felt like the finishing touch rather than an afterthought.
J David hired them for a weeklong roof project to get his roof ready for solar. He watched the crew arrive on time every morning, start noisy work at 7 a.m. without complaint, and stay polite and professional throughout — then literally drive off the moment the job finished, leaving an impressive, ready-for-solar roof. Whenever a problem popped up, they paused to explain options to him and addressed it immediately, even when the issue proved smaller than first feared. The most distinctive part of the job was supervisor William: diligent, respectful, and methodical, he walked J David through every step and ran a tight, responsive crew who clearly respected his direction. J David joked he’d try to steal William for his own company and made a point that William deserved to be well paid. What stuck with him most was a spotless, finished roof fit for solar and a supervisor whose leadership kept the whole week running smoothly.

Ty M. signed a $50,000 contract with Guyou Construction in August 2022 to add panels to an existing Tesla system, bringing in his own inverter and batteries to be integrated. The salesperson guaranteed they would use his inverter despite the contract listing theirs, but that promise unraveled and the crew ultimately backed out of installing the batteries they had agreed to handle. After a year-and-a-half of work, Guyou marked the job "complete" in February 2024 even though both he and a company technician found 12 of the new panels producing roughly half the expected energy; the company blamed an unusually cloudy month and told him to give it time, yet the shortfall persisted. He contacted Guyou at least ten times seeking repairs; they finally offered to send someone—but only for an extra service fee. He then discovered one panel sitting half off its roof brackets, barely attached and creating a clear safety hazard. Their so-called "10-year workmanship warranty" provided no real recourse. The lasting image from this $50,000 installation: prolonged delays, underperforming equipment, a dangerously loose panel, and a company unwilling to correct defects without charging more.
Ty signed a $50,000 contract in August 2022 with Guyou Construction to add panels, an inverter, and batteries to complement an existing Tesla system. The salesperson promised they'd use his customer-supplied inverter despite the contract listing the company’s unit, but that promise fell apart and the crew also backed out of installing the batteries they had originally agreed to. Installation dragged on for roughly a year and a half, and in February 2024 the company marked the project complete even while he and a technician noted that 12 of the new panels were producing roughly half the expected energy. Guyou blamed an unusually cloudy month and advised waiting, yet the low output continued. After at least ten calls requesting repairs, they finally offered to send someone—but only for an extra service charge. He later discovered one panel hanging half off its roof brackets, barely secured and creating a clear safety hazard. The advertised ten-year workmanship warranty produced no meaningful support, leaving him with a costly, underperforming installation and a dangerously loose panel that still hasn’t been properly fixed.
