The Verdict
Metric Solar delivered exactly what they promised, which several reviewers called rare to find these days. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found 21 specific mentions of value, zero complaints about pricing surprises, and consistent praise for transparent upfront quotes. One homeowner's electric bill dropped from $326 to $11 after installation. Another saw their rehab center's energy costs plummet after installing 40 American-made panels with 25-year warranties on each building. What sets this family-owned company apart is their approach to sales. Instead of commission-driven closers, they send installers who explain the science behind solar and make sure the system size actually makes sense for your usage before proceeding. We found 16 reviews praising workmanship quality and not a single mention of leaks, damage, or sloppy layouts. One reviewer was so worried their roof would look like someone played Tetris poorly that they met with the installer multiple times before committing. The final array was clean enough to earn a 10+/10 rating.
If you've gotten quotes that feel inflated or had salespeople push oversized systems, Metric Solar prices like a contractor who answers their own phone. You'll meet the person who designs and installs your system, not a commission chaser who disappears after the contract is signed.
Reviews That Shaped Our Verdict
Mama K wrestled with getting solar because she had watched neighbors’ roofs end up looking clunky, like a poorly played game of Tetris. She met with Vahan several times; he eased her worries, walked her through every step, and designed an array that would both maximize her benefit and fit the roof cleanly. Once she made the decision, the crew moved quickly — installation happened in roughly a week. She ended up very pleased with the finished look and gives the company a 10+/10, remembering most of all Vahan’s patience and the fast, tidy turnaround.
Armen and his wife had been mulling solar for a while, but a steadily rising utility bill finally forced them to act. After calling several companies and finding their prices too high, he reached out to Metric and found a proposal that matched the right system size and equipment at a sensible price. Metric took time to explain how solar works and the science behind the panels and inverter, and they approached the sale like engineers rather than a pushy closer — double‑checking that the system actually made sense for the household before installing. After many conversations the couple decided to move forward; skeptical at first, he ended up very pleased. The payoff was immediate: their electric bill dropped from $326 to $11. The detail that stuck with them was Metric’s clear, practical explanation and the right‑sized, affordable solution that produced a dramatic, measurable saving.
Kevin Winn chose Metric Solar to install a rooftop solar system at his home, and what stood out most to him wasn't just the tidy installation but the continued attention afterward. He found the initial consultation thorough: the team evaluated roof orientation, available space, and his household energy needs, then produced a detailed proposal showing expected production and savings. The design phase stayed transparent, with clear explanations of the equipment choices and panel layout so he knew why each decision was made. When installation began, the crew arrived on time, worked with minimal disruption, and left the property clean and undamaged. A project manager kept him updated throughout, and the work finished within the estimated timeline. Once the system was live, it met the projected energy figures, and Metric Solar followed up by offering monitoring and by answering his questions promptly. Although the upfront investment was substantial, he felt the quality of the components, the warranty terms, and the anticipated reductions in energy bills made it worthwhile. Metric Solar also helped him sort through available tax credits and rebates, which smoothed the financial side.

Jesus Sanchez recently bought a home in Los Angeles and decided to add solar panels plus an EV charger. He discovered Metric Solar’s biggest strength was a no-pressure, no-gimmicks approach: the team walked him through options, explained everything clearly, and recommended only what he actually needed. The installation unfolded smoothly from first visit to final hookup, and both the solar system and charger now run without issues. What stuck with him was the combination of honest guidance and a tidy, problem-free install—clear answers instead of sales talk, and a finished system he understands and can rely on.
This homeowner brought the company in to put solar on his mom’s house and found the installer strikingly professional and responsible. They walked away impressed enough to give a five-star rating, highlighting how the crew handled the job with a dependable, no-nonsense approach. The detail that lingers: a single, accountable installer who made the family feel the project was in good hands.
