SolarQuote Installation & Maintenance reviews
• last updated FEB 26, 2026Loading map...
The Verdict
We analyzed dozens of SolarQuote reviews and found a company that nails the basics: they answer the phone, show up on time, and install systems that work. One homeowner cut a $500 summer electric bill down to $20 and hasn't paid a cent at true-up in two years. Another called ten solar companies and only SolarQuote picked up, then spent multiple visits walking them through inverters, grid contracts, and PG&E rate structures until a rancher with zero solar knowledge felt confident signing. Reviews show 21 mentions of clean workmanship and 27 of smooth project timelines, with city inspections passing on the first try. The sales team doesn't oversell: one rep inspected an older home, found the roof couldn't support panels, offered financing for roof repairs, and stayed pleasant when the customer declined. (The homeowner kept his number anyway.) If you want the cheapest quote in town, you may find it elsewhere. But if you value a crew that returns calls the same day and installs your system right the first time, SolarQuote delivers.
If you're comparing purely on price, you may find a lower quote elsewhere. But if you want an installer who picks up the phone and gets your system approved on the first inspection, SolarQuote is worth the call.
Reviews That Shaped Our Verdict
Craig H. hired Solar Quote for a home installation in March/April 2018 and walked through the project with the team from the start. He asked for panels in specific spots; they designed the system around his preferred layout while steering him toward slightly different placement where it would produce more power. Pricing landed on the competitive side, and the whole process moved smoothly without any hiccups. Two years after installation the system has run flawlessly. A summertime electric bill that used to top $500 dropped to under $20, and he hasn’t owed anything at true-up. He worked directly with Jack and felt well supported by Chris and the rest of the crew. What stuck with him most was the dramatic drop in bills — shaving a $500-plus summer charge down to less than $20 and never owing at true-up.
While exploring rooftop solar for her older home, Phoua submitted an online interest form and Cameron Turner reached out to walk her through the options. He explained how solar works, laid out the different purchase methods so she could weigh costs and responsibilities, and arranged for knowledgeable roofing technicians to inspect the property. The inspection revealed the house’s aging structure couldn’t safely support panels, so Cameron mapped out several financing approaches to cover the necessary roof work rather than pushing a package that wouldn’t fit. With too many existing issues in the home, she decided not to move forward with solar, but Cameron kept following up, answered every question, and remained pleasant and professional. She saved his contact for future roofing or solar needs — leaving with clear options and a trusted point of contact rather than a contract.
Clark S. runs a historic ranch headquarters and turned to Solar Quotes to get the property onto solar. Darren spent hours with him, patiently walking him through everything a novice would worry about — inverters, batteries, transformer quirks, how kilowatt measurements are handled, the ins and outs of buying and selling power with PGE, and even the political pressures from the PUC — making multiple visits to the ranch office until Clark felt comfortable with the technical picture. All of that groundwork happened before he signed the installation contract, which was briefly delayed by attorney issues. What stood out was Darren’s discovery that two other companies had missed: a realistic chance to secure PGE residential-status for a small PGE-Ag–designated water-well building that only pumps water to residences inside the ranch headquarters. That eligibility could be the linchpin for meeting the rushed 2022 PUC installation deadline and locking the Adobe Ranch into 15 years under the more favorable 2021 solar protocols. Clark walked away impressed by Darren’s knowledge and persistence — and by the single detail about the well building that could make the whole project far more viable

What You Can Expect
Frespig is almost three years into owning solar on their home and has found the experience outstanding. They discovered Jordan and his team at Solar Quote to be consistently helpful and available, genuinely focused on the customer rather than the bottom line. The crew who installed the system turned out to be professional, friendly guys who did a solid job. The most memorable part: even three years after the install the company still responds with the same helpfulness as if they were trying to make the sale — steady, lasting support that stands out for anyone considering solar.
craigjhadfield worked with Solar Quote to put solar on his home and found the whole process remarkably easy. The team listened to where he wanted panels, built the system around those preferences and, when it made sense, suggested slightly different placements to improve power production. Pricing landed competitively and the installation itself went smoothly. Two years later the array is running flawlessly: a summer bill that used to top $500 now comes in under $20, and he hasn’t owed anything at true-up. He highlights working with Chris and his team as a key part of the positive outcome — the combination of thoughtful placement advice, clean execution, and the dramatic drop in bills is the detail that sticks.
