Revolve Solar reviews

Kelly D. discovered that Revolve Solar would actually move a whole system between houses — Chris and Paul installed her panels in the summer of 2014 and later took them down and reinstalled them on her new home when she relocated. She walked through the process with Lisa, who set expectations and kept her informed with regular updates, while the installers brought seasoned professionalism and helpful how‑to tips at both jobs. The experience left her enthusiastic enough to recommend solar to friends and family, and others she knows who hired Revolve ended up glad they did. The detail that stuck with her: you can bring your solar with you when you move, and Revolve made that straightforward.

Jack Morris, an ex‑military homeowner in the Austin area, had grown fed up with companies that dodged questions about where parts and labor came from. He called Revolve Solar; the next day a sales rep turned up with a clear cost comparison that included Sunset Valley rebates, Austin Energy rebates and the federal tax credit, and promised American labor with U.S. and German‑made components. He pushed on provenance, and the crew delivered: during the three‑day install he photographed the railing boxes labeled as made in Washington state, checked panel labels showing manufacture in Georgia, and watched them mount a German‑made inverter. The crews arrived on schedule, worked professionally, and kept a relaxed rapport with him—he handed out drinks, fed them BBQ brisket and later steaks, and shared lunches while the job moved along. Revolve finished the system for $2,000 less than a competitor who had been misleading him, Austin Energy inspected and approved within two weeks, and he watched the meter run backward on his 3,123 sq ft home. More than a year on, his bills are over 100% net reduced; Revolve installed an E‑gauge so he can monitor generation and consumption 24/7 (the link will,

George bought a residential solar system from Revolve Solar after a salesman, Mike Brown, promised the setup would "take care of me." He ended up with a roughly $2,000 true-up in the first year and, in the second year, discovered squirrels had chewed through about half the array — damage the company was supposed to monitor but never flagged. He complained to Sonnova about the problem four months ago and has heard nothing back. As a disabled Vietnam veteran who expected a discount, he feels ignored after paying for the system and is pressing the company to contact him. The most striking detail: promised monitoring and veteran accommodations never materialized, leaving him with a big bill and half a system sitting unrepaired for months.

Kelly had a residential solar system installed about five years ago and the installation itself went smoothly. Not long after, the company filed for bankruptcy in 2016 and then stopped answering calls and emails about service. With no response from the original installer, she ended up turning to other solar companies to handle repairs and maintenance — the lingering detail that stands out is that bankruptcy left her without the promised post-install support.

Amy J. ended up installing solar on her home and walked away very satisfied. She discovered the crew was honest, stuck to the schedule, and carried out the work with clear professionalism — and she especially appreciated that they never pushed a hard sale. From the first estimate through installation the timeline held and interactions felt straightforward rather than sales-driven. The detail that stuck with her most was the punctual, transparent service delivered without pressure, which made the whole decision feel simple.

Jacqueline bought a residential solar system in fall 2013 and had it installed in January 2014 on her four-year-old house. By June 2014 she discovered the array was producing only about half the expected energy; Revolve Solar corrected the performance issue but offered no compensation for the lost generation from January through June. In February 2015 a roof leak led her roofer to point out that vents on one side of the roof needed replacement — and that the solar panels had been mounted directly over those vents. Multiple other solar contractors told her panels should never sit over attic vents because attic heat can damage the modules. She ended up paying Revolve Solar to remove and later reinstall the panels while the roofer repaired and re-roofed the area; what was meant to be a four-hour job stretched to nine hours and carried extra cost because vents had to be removed and the roof redone. After the rework the attic still lacked adequate ventilation, so she paid to add a solar-powered attic fan. Jacqueline is glad to have gone solar, but frustrated by the extra, unexpected expenses and by many unanswered phone calls from Revolve; the detail that lingers is paying out of pocket

Cindy spent a year pushing for the referral fee she had been promised while also laying out the problems she ran into during a repair. What made the outcome stand out was that Revolve eventually came through, and she heard that the company was changing how it would handle situations like hers for future customers. The experience itself had been unpleasant, but the follow-through after so much persistence was what finally closed the loop.

Chris went with Revolve Solar for a home system, but a few years later the company had gone out of business and the inverter stopped reporting. Instead of getting the savings he had counted on, he ended up facing both an electric bill and a solar bill every month, a reminder to be much more cautious about who installs a system in the first place.

Patti’s solar system had barely been installed before the company collapsed into bankruptcy, turning what should have been a fresh start into an immediate headache. Once that happened, she was left wondering whether anyone from the business was still around to send out a technician, and the uncertainty itself became the story: a new solar setup with no clear path to getting it checked or supported.
