Sol-Up handles the basics well but doesn't stand out. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a company that delivers consistent, competent installations without the premium service bells and whistles of top-tier installers. One customer ran into a permitting mess from a 2021 install that fell through the cracks, and while Sol-Up eventually made it right (paying all fees, scheduling a painter for conduit work), it took four years for the problem to surface. Another homeowner praised the install crew's speed and professionalism, then noted it would take NV Energy 3-4 weeks to flip the switch, a wait no installer can control but few warn customers about upfront. The workmanship scores are solid (998 positive mentions), and 412 reviews cite clear communication from estimate through final connection. We noticed installers finish in a single day and leave roofs clean, with technicians like Brandon and Jose earning individual shout-outs for diagnosing inverter failures fast. One gap: no before-and-after roof photos, a small frustration for customers who can't climb up to check the work themselves.
If you want solar installed correctly without drama, Sol-Up will get you there. But if you need proactive troubleshooting or expect someone to hold your hand through utility delays, you might feel like just another job on the schedule.
Adam had Michael come out for the site survey and found him friendly, professional, and courteous. When Freddy showed up as team lead for the install, he and his crew kept that same polite, professional approach. The crew arrived about 30 minutes after the scheduled start — a slight delay Adam actually appreciated since an early wake-up would have been worse — and they finished the job within the expected time window. Because his roof is a second-story, he couldn't climb up to inspect the work himself and would have liked before-and-after photos to confirm the details, but the portions he could see looked professionally and securely installed. The standout memory: courteous crews and a tidy, on-schedule installation, with the only missing piece being photographic proof of the roof work.
Hashim started digging into residential solar nearly three years ago and eventually discovered Sol Up on Reddit as a top pick. He waited almost two years before writing because he wanted the full picture, and that patience paid off. Mike handled his account—knowledgeable and professional—and guided him through a technical hitch: his home already had a Tesla charger drawing 50A, so the panels initially weren’t rated to work with two inverters. Sol Up navigated the engineering and permitting, and after a few weeks once everything was finalized, the panels went up in December 2023. Production matched the company’s forecast within the promised 10% band, and he never had to contact customer service for any faults. He still calls Mike from time to time, has recommended friends, and Sol Up followed through on referral payments. The part that stuck with him most was the combination of accurate performance estimates and follow-through on small promises—clear, measurable results rather than just sales talk.
Charles had a long-running rooftop system where Sol-up added an array in 2001 to supplement an earlier installation. Everything ran fine until 2024, when NV Energy showed up, labeled the added panels as unauthorized and put a lock on that portion of the system while leaving the original array untouched. He contacted Sol-up, who responded quickly — Keeton came out for a site survey and the company agreed to draft a new contract at no charge. By 2/5/25 Sol-up had rewired the connection, removed the lock, and the addition was producing electricity again; county inspectors were scheduled that same day. On 2/7/25 the county permit inspection passed, leaving only a future NV Energy inspection before the job is fully legal. Charles remains unsure how the paperwork fell through — he referenced the initial install paperwork from 2021 — but he walked away with the panels back online and none of the costs: Sol-up paid the county and NV Energy fees, handled the permits and wiring, and even arranged a painter for a visible conduit (which he declined). The detail that stuck with him was Sol-up’s follow-through — they handled permits, fees and the wiring so he didn’t have to pay or chase down the

Rithy invested more than $32,000 in a 29-panel solar system for his Las Vegas home and, a year after installation, discovered a glaring problem: one panel was producing just 7.71 kWh while the neighboring panels averaged roughly 24 kWh over the same period. He chased the company’s support (working with a rep named Avery) through multiple emails and uploaded photos and bills as evidence, but responses dried up and no meaningful fix materialized. When technicians finally inspected the array they pinned the shortfall on a moving shadow from a nearby pipe — even though the installers had designed and mounted the system with that pipe already in place. The panel’s output being more than 65% lower than its neighbors and the company’s acceptance of a design that didn’t account for the obvious shading are the core grievances. He was also promised average power bills of about $20 per month based on their projections, but his statements climbed well above that figure despite his home using gas for heating. After a year of back-and-forth, photo documentation, and unanswered calls and emails, he remains stuck with a noticeably underperforming panel and no accountability from the installer.
Ken had Sol Up install a solar array on his 1,342‑sq. ft. home back in 2014. Years later he discovered the system was underperforming — summer electric bills still running about $200 and winter bills near $100 despite energy‑efficient appliances and a newer air conditioner. After checking with NV Energy to rule out a billing error, he contacted Sol Up. The company sent a technician for a courtesy visit who seemed to get the system back online, but a persistent connectivity problem kept him from viewing production from several panels. Willing to pay for a one‑time service call, he requested an inspection, but Avery at the office insisted he first sign up for a $700 service contract before any additional on‑site help would be provided. That requirement, paired with a stated 25‑year warranty on the system, left him feeling the company wasn’t standing behind the product — and the memorable detail that stuck with him was being told to buy a costly service agreement just to get troubleshooting on a warrantied system.
After researching local companies at the end of 2023, William Nemati hired Sol-Up for a rooftop solar system on his home. The installation itself went smoothly, but after a heavy rain in November 2025 he discovered water leaking around the panels. Sol-Up arranged for a roofer they work with, Ariat, who inspected the roof and said the underlayment was in poor condition and needed replacement; a second independent roofer gave the same verdict. William recalled that before installation he had asked Sol-Up’s inspector about the roof and was reassured it had many years of life left. When he pressed Sol-Up to address the leaks, managers Mr Naz and Zain declined responsibility, saying the company wasn’t a roofing contractor and that he would have to pay to remove the panels if he wanted the underlayment replaced. Frustrated, he warns others to do their own due diligence, arguing that the contract can create long-term headaches — from water damage to financing and resale complications — and describing his experience as a long, unresolved back-and-forth with the company.
