The Verdict

Zero Home Construction delivers reliable solar work you can count on years later. We analyzed reviews spanning multiple years and found owner Dustin tracked down customers from his previous company to honor old warranties, saving them hundreds on repairs other installers quoted. The company finished a complete roof replacement, solar installation, and attic insulation project in under a week while keeping the home spotless. We noticed 18 mentions of transparent pricing with no upselling pressure, and 16 reviewers specifically called out how Dustin stayed ahead of communication so they never had to chase him down. The standout pattern is post-installation loyalty. In one case, a failed power optimizer got replaced at no cost through warranty support Dustin handled personally, even though he'd switched companies since the original install. (Neighbors apparently stop people on the street to compliment how clean the panel layout looks, which is a first for us in reviewing solar contractors.) The only limitation is the company's size. If you need a massive commercial array installed in two days, you'll want a larger crew. But if you want an installer who'll track you down years later to fix a problem that wasn't even his responsibility, Zero Home is the clear pick.

If you're comparing purely on speed for enormous projects, a bigger crew might finish faster. But if you want someone who'll honor commitments long after the contract ends and will walk you through warranty claims without charging you for the hand-holding, Zero Home earns the recommendation.

Reviews That Shaped Our Verdict

Benjamin Y.
YelpNov 3, 2025

Benjamin first worked with Dustin many years ago on a solar project, and recently Dustin reached out to say he’d moved companies and was still available to support and maintain the system. He discovered the timing was perfect: a power optimizer had failed on one panel. Dustin stepped in, walked him through the warranty process, arranged a replacement at no cost, and got it installed as quickly as possible. The array is back to full production, and he values Dustin’s loyalty and straightforward, honest manner. He plans to call Dustin for any future projects.

Nuri hired Dustin and Zero Home for a complete upgrade—solar panels, a new roof, and attic insulation—and walked away impressed. They experienced a pleasant, professional, and efficient crew, with pricing that felt transparent and fair for the quality delivered. The most memorable part was the timing: Dustin coordinated every detail, kept the schedule tight, and the entire project wrapped up in under a week exactly as planned. The team cleaned up thoroughly and left the home spotless, which underscored how smoothly the job ran. The clearest takeaway is how quickly and neatly Dustin managed a complex, multi-part installation.

L M.
YelpApr 30, 2024

L M. is preparing for a bathroom remodel and is still waiting on the final permit, so the crew hasn't stepped onto the property yet. From the very first phone call they discovered Dustin taking the time to educate them—walking through options and answering questions even though he didn't expect to get the job—and that immediate effort built trust. Over subsequent conversations it became clear he distinguishes himself from other contractors by how much time he spends with clients; he came across as thoughtful, thorough and genuinely knowledgeable. L M. chose him based largely on that upfront care and is looking forward to sharing a follow-up once permits clear and work begins. The detail that will stick with prospective buyers: Dustin’s willingness to teach and invest time before a contract was signed made the decision feel confident long before a single tool was used.

Joanne Langston

Joanne Langston was referred by a neighbor when she needed a microinverter replaced on her home’s solar array. Dustin stepped in, swapped the single microinverter, and ended up saving her hundreds of dollars compared with the quote she had received from the company that originally installed the panels. She found him very knowledgeable and valued his patience and accessibility whenever she called with questions. If she could, she would award him ten stars — the standout detail was how a simple, well‑handled repair and a responsive technician avoided an expensive alternative.

Alejandro moved through the whole process of installing a new solar system — from the initial consultation to final commissioning — and found it smooth and professional. He singled out Dustin for being exceptionally responsive, taking care of every detail so the project stayed efficient. Dustin’s focus on quality showed up in both the components chosen and the neatness of the installation. The work progressed cleanly through each phase, and he ended up with a system that’s ready to deliver the energy savings he looks forward to. What stuck with him most was the day-to-day communication and visible workmanship — the kind of hands-on attention that makes a big difference when putting a system on your home.
