The Verdict

Sunrise Solar is the rare contractor that actually shows up when a customer's previous installer goes belly-up. We analyzed customer stories and found the company salvaged a 66-panel array that had been offline for a year and a half after the original installer turned out to be fraudulent. That kind of rescue work isn't a fluke. Reviews consistently describe staff who answer questions months after installation is complete (one sales rep fielded "silly questions" four months post-install without complaint) and chase down solutions for problems they didn't create. The company beat door-to-door competitors on price while delivering what one reviewer called "quality service for a reasonable price, the way it ought to be." Installation crews left job sites clean, worked efficiently, and handled roof attachments carefully enough that homeowners felt confident recommending them without reservation. If your town got hit by a tornado and you need panels detached and reset, you'll appreciate knowing they handled that scenario without the usual contractor runaround.

If you want the cheapest possible quote, keep shopping. But if you value a local team that'll field your panicked texts about inverter errors six months down the road, Sunrise Solar is worth the premium.

3 Stories That Stood Out

1. Brian M Falls
Google | Aug 6, 2024 |

Brian discovered that more than half of his 66-panel array had been offline for a year and a half after a fraudulent installer left the contract situation tangled. He had already jumped through hoops to get the agreement transferred, then turned to Sunrise Solar. Sunrise navigated the transfer, repaired the array, and got the system producing power again. He appreciated that the crew followed through on their commitments and showed up when they said they would — after 18 months of partial outage, the concrete result was a working system and a straightforward resolution of the contract mess.

2. Jenn Mueller
Google | Oct 23, 2024 |

Jenn connected with Joshua Campbell while exploring a rooftop solar system for her home and immediately noticed how pressure-free the process felt. He returned a few days after their first meeting to lay out the right system size and costs, and whenever he didn’t have an answer he promised to find one—and reliably followed up. She had the panels installed in June 2024 and still reaches out months later with little questions; Josh keeps answering them. He even stepped in to help a friend who was getting the runaround from another solar company, coaching her on how to get the promised work done and continuing to assist on outstanding issues. The Sunrise team around him stayed friendly and professional throughout, making coordination straightforward. Her panels are performing as expected, and she recently added a battery so she won’t lose power the next time Carroll goes out. What stuck with her most was Josh’s honest follow-through and ongoing availability—enough confidence to expand the system with a battery.

3. Thanh Nguyen
Google | Feb 11, 2023 |

After being pressured by a door-to-door outfit, Thanh was ready to walk away from solar entirely — even with a lawyer in hand to cancel the contract. Then Sunrise Solar called with a surprising offer: a genuinely competitive price for a much better rooftop system than the door-to-door sellers or nearby competitors had proposed. They moved forward, and Sunrise handled the project from start to finish. Installation happened in October 2022 and the system went active in February 2023; the stretch of time reflected Sunrise taking responsibility for permits and coordination rather than passing pieces back and forth. Throughout the process the Sunrise team stayed coordinated and communicative, answering questions and explaining every component until Thanh felt comfortable. The install crew showed up on time, treated the roof with care, worked efficiently without rushing, and left the site tidy — a sharp contrast to the shallow sales pitch and poor follow-through Thanh had seen before. What stood out most was not just the friendly service but that the company delivered higher-quality equipment at a reasonable price while actually supporting the homeowner through every step.

What You Can Expect

01

1. River
Google | Oct 28, 2025 |

River began the process skeptical about solar companies but ended up giving Sunrise Solar five stars after an experience that changed their mind. From the first conversation Andrew listened closely, designed a system that fit their current needs while mapping a straightforward plan to expand later, and coordinated with the owners so they felt confident every step of the way. The installation crew and electrician worked efficiently and cleanly, finished on schedule, and left them comfortable with the quality of the work. The company also included free monitoring for the life of the system and offered ongoing support for adjustments as household needs evolve. An official inspection is scheduled in the next week or two, so long‑term performance is still to be proven, and they intend to update the review once the system is fully operational. The detail that stood out most was the combination of a truly personalized design and lifetime monitoring — a setup that can grow with the household and be watched over in real time.

2. Jenna Silvers
Google | Sep 29, 2025 |

After her system was installed, Jenna encountered a few hiccups that turned a promising project into a stressful stretch. Sunrise Solar stepped up, working with her to keep the solution affordable and even intervening when money got tight so she wouldn’t face a utility shutoff. The team stayed engaged through the problem-solving, arranging options and following up until things were resolved. What stuck with her most was that the company didn’t disappear after installation — they actively prevented a shutdown and stayed by her side until the situation was fixed.

3. Don Parker
Google | Aug 13, 2025 |

In May 2025 Don Parker and his wife decided to install a rooftop solar electric system with Sunrise Solar. The array went live June 1, and by July it was generating more electricity than the household used — even with air conditioning running full tilt. From the first sales call through final commissioning, the Sunrise Solar team handled every step with clear expertise, professionalism and quick, attentive responses to questions. He expects the system to supply the vast majority of their electricity over the coming year, meaning any wintertime purchases from the utility will be only a small fraction of what their bills looked like before — a result that both justifies the upfront cost and shifts monthly savings into positive cash flow. His one lingering regret: not making the switch to on-site solar four years earlier when they first moved to Missouri.

1. Steve Young

Steve Young experienced a smooth installation for his home’s solar system, with a crew that was professional and easy to work with. When he encountered issues after the install, Sunrise stepped in quickly and fixed them, repeatedly resolving problems without delay. That consistent follow-through—standing behind both the equipment and the company—became the standout part of his experience. He walked away reassured that if anything else comes up, Sunrise will be on the job.

2. Tarin Taylor
Google | Jul 20, 2025 |

Tarin went solar and ended up loving the new panels — she noticed a clear, positive change at home. The standout part of the experience was Jhace: he walked her through every step, patiently fielded all her questions, and accommodated her needs to keep the process smooth. She appreciated the thorough explanations and personal attention from start to finish, and the main takeaway is that the hands-on support made a potentially complicated decision feel simple and confident.

3. Cliff Martin
Google | Feb 22, 2025 |

Cliff Martin came to Sunrise Solar with a workable plan for a house that was an easy install. He handed Andrew his energy usage numbers and overall scheme, and Andrew translated those details into a real rooftop system that was installed on budget and performs exactly to the specs Cliff provided. With so many sketchy installers in the market, he appreciated that Sunrise stuck to their timeline, delivered a tidy, high-quality installation, and left him with no problems so far. The clearest takeaway: an installer who actually listened to the usage data and built a system that matches it.

After struggling through headaches with another solar provider on his installation, Patrick McDaniel brought Sunrise Solar in to sort things out. He found a team that took responsibility for the outstanding work, completed the job they outlined, and stuck to their commitments. The most memorable part of the experience was their follow-through—promises made were promises kept—which restored his confidence after the earlier problems.

3. doanhafta

They found the salesman, Joshua Campbell, exceptionally responsive, taking time to answer their many questions and address concerns.

The one detail that stuck with them was Joshua’s patience and thorough responses, which made the process straightforward to navigate.
