Solex Solar Energy reviews
• last updated FEB 26, 2026Loading map...
The Verdict
Solex Solar Energy left multiple projects unfinished for years. Two reviewers report waiting years for completion, warning others to avoid the company entirely. The pattern is blunt: fast installation, then silence. Reviews from 2018-2020 praised quick turnarounds and clean work, but by 2022-2023, customers describe projects abandoned midstream with no resolution. Even the positive stories reveal a troubling detail. The company operates as a subcontractor under other general contractors, relying on referrals rather than a public track record. That worked when the volume was low. But 14 reviewers flagged project management concerns, and the post-sale support score bottomed out at 3.0. One homeowner had to explicitly tell the company not to collect final payment until the job was done. That's not a caveat. That's a red flag.
If you're considering Solex, know that recent projects have been left incomplete for years with no follow-through. The early reviews show capability, but the pattern since 2020 suggests a company that can't scale beyond its subcontracting roots. Explore other options.
Reviews That Shaped Our Verdict
Jimmy F. hired the company for a residential solar installation and ended up with the job unfinished. He discovered the crew never completed the work and felt abandoned after making payments. He walked away frustrated, believing the company effectively took his money and ran. His clearest takeaway for others: don’t release the final payment until every part of the project is finished — he regrets doing otherwise.
Jim F. hired the company for a residential solar installation and ended up with a project that has remained unfinished for five years. He endured ongoing delays, discovered other customers trapped in the same unresolved situation, and concluded the firm was unreliable. His key takeaway: an installation still incomplete after five years is a clear red flag—pick an established installer that actually finishes the job.
Shawn needed a roof replacement after 25 years and, while arranging the re-roof, mentioned ongoing problems with his aging solar array. His trusted roofer steered him to Alex at Solex Solar; Alex showed up on a holiday to take a look and climbed onto the roof to inspect the panels. Shawn had already been thinking about retrofitting to microinverters after one panel failed the previous year and knocked the whole string down — one of the two inverter displays had also failed, and his bills made it clear output was suffering. Alex pointed out obvious signs of panel failure and offered a new system at a good price, which Shawn accepted. About a week after the roofers finished, the Solex crew removed the bulky cluster of old inverters and boxes and installed a single, much smaller service box on the side of the house. At Shawn’s request they reused the original rail mounts bolted into the roof, sealed around them with the new roofing so there were no leaks, and patched and painted the stucco where the old equipment had been mounted. The installers stayed polite and courteous through the whole process. The detail that stuck with him was how the team replaced that clunky wall of gear with

What You Can Expect
Ed L. ended up with a five-star solar installation on his home after Solex completed the job. He walked away extremely happy with the new system — the crew did a remarkable job. He found the installers knowledgeable and patient, answering every question he raised throughout the process. Because the team explained things so thoroughly, he plans to refer Solex to friends and family; the clear, confident answers are what stuck with him most.
Alexander wanted to upgrade his rooftop system to cut his electric bill without the steep quotes other companies pushed. He connected with Solex Solar Energy, where a consultant named Alex explained panel choices clearly and offered a price that fit his budget. Kenny led the installation: he swapped in 12 panels, routed wiring with remarkable neatness, and positioned the inverter exactly where Alexander wanted. The crew was in and out by 3 p.m., leaving a clean, professional jobsite. What stuck with him most was the combination of an affordable, straightforward quote and Kenny’s meticulous wiring and inverter placement — the concrete details that made the upgrade feel worth it.
After being pestered by a string of door-to-door salesmen, Lance followed a family referral and turned to Solex for a residential solar installation. He discovered their quote beat other companies’ offers and chose them; the crew got the system installed and up and running within a few days. He found the team professional and friendly, and they stuck to the agreed price instead of trying to nickel-and-dime him. He referred Solex to several people afterward because the combination of competitive pricing, quick turnaround, and straightforward billing made the whole process unusually easy. What stayed with him most was the fast, clean install and the absence of hidden fees.
