The Verdict

This company delivers smooth sales presentations but fails once the contract is signed. One reviewer watched their solar system sit dark for weeks after storm damage because no one would return their calls, and when technicians finally arrived, they left circuit breaker issues unresolved. Another signed a second contract at a lower price only to have the company refuse to honor it, then stonewalled them with ignored emails and vague excuses. The data shows why these stories keep surfacing: we found 8 complaints about value versus only 4 positive mentions, and post-sale support scored just 3.7 out of 5 with 9 negative signals. The sales team earns consistent praise across 68 reviews for being professional and informative, but that early rapport evaporates when problems arise. We noticed a pattern where salespeople promise reimbursements or gift cards during the pitch, then vanish or make excuses when it's time to deliver. If you want panels that actually work when the power goes out, the charming sales pitch won't help you six months from now.

If you're comparing solar companies and value responsiveness after installation, keep looking. Simplicity Solar may offer an appealing sales experience, but the post-installation support collapses when you need it most.

3 Stories That Stood Out

1. M Hurston
Google | Jun 28, 2025 |

M Hurston chose Simplicity Power for a home solar install after an effective sales push, only to discover the company’s attention faded once the paperwork was signed. They experienced three separate problems; during a round of thunderstorms the system went out, and each time it took weeks to reach anyone who could help. Technicians eventually came back out, but issues persisted — a circuit breaker problem remained unresolved. M also noticed that the single five-star review on the page was for a car-related installation, not home solar, which made the positive feedback feel unrelated. The lasting image: strong salesmanship got the system in place, but slow-to-nonexistent post-install support left them still dealing with a faulty breaker weeks later.

2. Natasha Rodriquez
Google | Sep 26, 2025 |

Natasha Rodriquez went into the process expecting a straightforward solar installation: she signed an initial contract for a system, then accepted a follow-up offer from Simplicity for the same work at a lower price and signed that agreement in good faith. After that, the company backed away—refusing to honor the second contract and calling it void without giving a clear explanation or taking responsibility. From there she ran into the classic runaround: phone calls and emails ignored or answered with vague excuses, and no one willing to provide a concrete resolution. What lingers is the signed lower-price contract that Simplicity treats as if it never existed; instead of the honesty and transparency she expected from a clean-energy provider, she felt misled and taken advantage of by what came across as a bait-and-switch.

3. Cathy Hernandez
Google | Aug 17, 2024 |

Cathy Hernandez signed up for a home solar installation that was supposed to place panels on both her carport and roof; what began in May dragged into late June and became a run of missed updates and unmet promises. She watched crews arrive to update the electrical box, then installers show up only to decide the carport needed structural reinforcement before panels could go up — exactly where the rep had said panels would be installed. That reinforcement added at least a week of delay with no communication, so she called the sales rep, Sunny Lakhani. A caller from Everbright later contacted her electric provider, and she assumed the company was canceling her old contract to switch things over — but nobody followed up. About a month after that exchange she opened her electric bill and discovered it was roughly triple the usual amount, plus a separate solar charge. When she pushed Sunny, he agreed to cover $183 of the solar bill; looking back through texts she found he had promised a $500 gift card after installation, so she asked for that instead. He replied the install cost more than expected and he couldn’t provide the gift card, became emotional, then began missing her calls; the

What You Can Expect

01

1. Saren Brooks
Google | Jun 8, 2024 |

Saren worked with Andrew Menard and his team on a solar installation and found their ongoing communication to be the standout part of the experience. They proved consistently informative and friendly, answering questions and staying in touch through every step of the process — and continuing follow-up even after the panels were installed. That persistent post-installation contact left them confident the team wouldn’t disappear once the job was done.

2. jo vasquez
Google | Jan 12, 2024 |

Jo Vasquez began the day with Brandon McKinney stopping by to check on their solar system, and appreciated that level of follow-up. They also valued Alex and Sonny taking time to walk them through every question and guide the project from start to finish. A separate installation crew handled the panels with kindness, efficiency and clear organization — and even cleaned up the site when they were done. The detail that stuck with them was the team's responsiveness and how tidy and professional the installers were after the job.

3. Michael Kern
Google | Nov 29, 2023 |

Michael Kern was facing average electricity bills of about $560 a month and wanted a way to lower that expense. A young representative named Darsh stopped by his house to walk through their options; Darsh answered every question, stayed professional without any pressure, and made the proposal easy to understand — a welcome change from the usual sales pitch. Convinced by that approach, he decided to move forward and locked in a set monthly payment of $289 while they wait for the system to be installed. What stuck with him most was Darsh’s non-pushy professionalism, and he plans to recommend Darsh to all his friends and family.

1. Cameron Smith
Google | Sep 4, 2022 |

Cameron Smith moved forward with a solar install and discovered that the difference-maker was Gabriel. He relied on Gabriel to answer every question and to guide the process from start to finish, handling the details so Cameron didn’t have to chase anything down. Gabriel stayed available and dependable throughout the timeline, creating a straightforward, low-stress experience. If a buyer wants someone who will actually show up and be reachable, ask for Gabriel.

2. Rebecca Jordan
Google | Sep 5, 2023 |

Rebecca awarded five stars after a mostly speedy installation. She encountered a few minor bobbles along the way, but the crew corrected each one promptly as soon as she flagged them. The memorable detail: small issues were handled fast, so the quick follow-up left the job feeling efficient rather than frustrating.

1. Michael Morales
Google | Jun 7, 2024 |

Michael brought Andrew to his house to talk through solar options and the nuts-and-bolts of how the system would work. He discovered a clear, thorough walkthrough: Andrew explained the technology in plain language, answered every question without rushing, and kept in steady contact — following up at each stage so Michael always knew what was happening. The detail that stood out was that consistent follow-through; it turned a technical conversation into a guided process rather than a one-off sales pitch.

2. Melina Cadman
Google | Nov 29, 2023 |

Melina was shopping for a residential solar setup and met a salesperson who immediately stood out for being unusually honest and personable. She worked with Darsh at Simplicity, and he listened to their household needs, tailored the proposal accordingly, and never pushed unnecessary panels. Because the process felt consultative rather than salesy, she moved forward with the installation and came away very satisfied with the choice. What lingered most was that the rep catered to what they actually needed instead of trying to force a bigger sale.

3. Patrica Atkinson
Google | Sep 8, 2025 |

Patrica Atkinson hired the company for a home solar installation with batteries and ended up with a string of safety and communication failures. It began with unannounced deliveries — one driver showed up in the dark in an unmarked vehicle, entered the property unexpectedly, and nearly caused an injury. She discovered the crew had not followed promises about where the batteries would go, and language barriers made it impossible to communicate with the installers on site. The crew also destroyed about $120 worth of plants, left trash and 2–3 inch screws scattered around the yard and driveway (some falling off the roof), and broke a window without telling anyone. After that, the original salesman stopped answering calls and texts, and the account manager, Lillian Frausto, stopped responding as well. With nobody returning calls, she still has no clarity on who will handle the utility switchover or when the power company work will be completed. The most lasting image she shares: a property littered with long screws and a broken window, and no company contact to fix it.
