Solarado Roofing & Solar reviews

The Verdict
Solarado Roofing & Solar doesn't cut corners or oversell. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found zero complaints about workmanship, zero complaints about project delays, and zero complaints about sales pressure. One homeowner hired them to remove solar panels, replace a roof, then reinstall the panels, and the crew cleaned up so thoroughly each day that their dog could roam the yard safely. Another watched the owner, Andrew Dodd, show up every single day with drone footage of the progress. When a different customer's inverter died months after installation, Solarado chased down the supplier, secured a replacement at no extra cost, and installed it fast. We noticed 48 mentions of flawless workmanship and 50 mentions of seamless project management. The company even power-washed an entire roof for free (a six-hour job) when an insurance adjuster flagged harmless dark streaks as a policy risk. That's the kind of follow-through you're paying for.
If you want the absolute lowest bid, you may find a cheaper quote elsewhere. But if you want an installer who'll return calls, show up on schedule, and fix problems without charging you twice, Solarado is worth the premium.
3 Stories That Stood Out
Nancy Callender hired Solarado Roofing to replace her roof, a job that also required removing and reinstalling the existing solar array. She felt far less stressed than expected because Andrew stayed involved from the initial inspection through selections, progress checks and final sign-off—coming out every day to inspect the crews and sending short drone video clips so she could follow progress remotely. Crews cleaned up thoroughly each evening, leaving the perimeter free of debris so the family dog wasn’t at risk. Glen and the solar team scrubbed the panels until they looked brand new, and the new white shingles sit clean and perfectly aligned. The bid landed in line with competitors, and Andrew’s calm, knowledgeable oversight kept the whole process smooth. What stuck with her most was the daily drone footage—an effortless way to watch a complicated job unfold and stay confident every step of the way.
Nancy Aikin, at 74, had brought Solarado Roofing in in 2023 to repair and resurface her home’s roof, and the crew finished the job efficiently, on schedule, and at a fair price. In March 2025 a drone inspection commissioned by her insurer flagged overhanging branches and dark streaks that raised concerns about pooling, and despite a follow-up inspection that documented the roof’s excellent condition the insurer hesitated to renew the policy. Distressed, she called Solarado and the team showed up the very next day, spent more than six hours power-washing the entire roof, made it look spotless, and refused to charge a cent for the work. She walked away stunned by their care, kindness, and expertise — especially Roberto and his crew — and what stayed with her was that they were willing to drop everything and spend a full day cleaning the roof for free to help with an insurance appeal.
Diane had just wrapped a recent Solarado installation when the inverter on her older system failed — and the crew stepped up again without fuss. She watched them battle a stubborn supplier to secure a replacement part, handle the logistics, and carry out a fast installation that brought her solar array back to life. What stood out was their willingness to own the problem and push through the vendor headaches, leaving her with working panels and none of the usual runaround.

What You Can Expect
Jeffrey Will purchased a solar system for his pool a few years ago and was pleased with the result. When he needed the panels taken down and put back up while getting a new roof, he went straight back to the same company as his only choice. The installer managed the teardown and reassembly during the roofing work, remained responsive throughout, and handled everything professionally. What lingered most was how quickly they answered and how smoothly the array was reinstalled once the roof was finished.
Sarah found Solarado unusually easy to work with during a roof project in Sonoma County, where she had already seen plenty of other contractors come through for a remodel. The standout for her was Max’s responsiveness and how smoothly the whole job moved: the very day she sent in her deposit, an email arrived saying the construction permit had already been approved. The crew who handled the work left the place looking better than they found it, with the deck cleaned off and the perimeter around the house tidier than before they started. She ended up with a new roof, no stress or hassle on her side, and the kind of finish that let her stop worrying about it for the next 25 years.
Tami hired Solarado to add extra panels to an existing rooftop system — a straightforward upgrade that still required careful integration. She found Joe and his crew knowledgeable, efficient, and genuinely pleasant to work with. They tied the new panels into the older array so smoothly the whole setup looked and operated like a single, unified system. She appreciated their workmanship, professionalism, and friendliness throughout the job, gave a five-star rating, and offered an emphatic 110% endorsement. The detail that stuck with her: no compatibility headaches — just a clean, seamless upgrade.

Michael ended up with a solar project finished right on schedule and at exactly the price he’d been promised. For a homeowner lining up a new system, that kind of clean handoff — no timeline drift, no surprise cost — was the detail that stood out.
Stephanie T. faced an insurance ultimatum — replace her roof within three weeks or lose coverage — and decided to use the opportunity to add solar at the same time. She picked Solarado so a roofing contractor could coordinate both jobs, and the company delivered: the crew moved quickly, kept the site tidy, handled all permits and county inspections, and finished the work on the insurer’s timeline. She ended up with a new roof and solar array installed without juggling multiple contractors, and was most impressed that Solarado took care of the paperwork and inspections while still giving her a surprisingly good price.
Kimberly came away with a solid roof repair from Solarado, and the process itself felt easy and fairly priced. The one snag was the cleanup: a bit of debris was left behind in the garden and porch areas, which took the shine off an otherwise straightforward job.
John had been working with Solarado for about a year when the value of the relationship became obvious. They did more than handle the paid repair work on the church roof; they also responded quickly and took the time to share practical guidance on keeping the roof in good shape, giving the congregation advice that reached well beyond the job they were hired to do.
Angie L. ended up calling Solardo after half of the panels on a home solar array stopped communicating with the rest of the system. What looked like a mysterious system failure turned out to be the legacy of a previous owner’s faulty connections, and the crew replaced every one with OEM parts. That thorough repair got the whole setup back online, and the standout here was how completely they traced the problem before fixing it.
