Leonard Roofing isn't worth the risk. We found a contractor that consistently leaves customers stranded after installation, with no-shows for repairs and unanswered warranty claims stretching for months or even a full year.

My Smart House will install your panels and then disappear when you need them most. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a troubling split: hundreds of happy customers from 2018-2022 versus a wall of complaints about unanswered calls and unfulfilled promises starting in 2023. One homeowner dis

Suncrest Solar isn't a company you can trust with your money. This review should be short because the facts are straightforward: the company filed for bankruptcy in 2017 and sold off its customer contracts to other installers. Before that collapse, dozens of homeowners reported billing chaos, system

We found a company with strong installation crews but crippling support failures that can leave you paying for a broken system. One couple spent two years calling for a battery replacement, paying $200 a month for equipment that produced nothing while their electricity bills climbed back to $200 eac

This company is not worth the risk. We analyzed nearly a hundred reviews and found a troubling split: some homeowners rave about smooth installs and attentive service from a sales rep named David, while others describe deceptive sales tactics, botched installations, and vanishing support once the pa

We found a company that uses spoofed local numbers to flood homeowners with sales calls, then hangs up when you ask basic questions like their office address. In one review, a California representative claiming to work for Green Energy Group couldn't provide a street address and hung up mid-conversa

Freedom Solar isn't worth the risk. We analyzed nearly a hundred reviews and found a company whose operations consistently break down after the contract is signed. One homeowner reported a system that failed twice in the first year, with a nine-day wait each time for repairs despite the company's su

Pure Solar should be avoided entirely. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found a company with abandoned projects, bounced checks, and customers filing lawsuits. One homeowner waited 18 months for completion, paid thousands early due to broken contract terms, and still has a leaking roof and non-func

This company has a pattern of vanishing when things go wrong. One homeowner watched crews patch his roof with mismatched tiles, then spent months trying to reach anyone who'd fix it. Another was promised roof-repair support if panels ever needed removal, only to hit a wall of unanswered emails for t

Sunrun will charge you while your panels sit broken.

One homeowner reported paying $111 monthly for over a year while

This company will leave you stranded. We found dozens of stories that follow the same grim pattern: breakdowns happen, you report them, and then you simply cannot get anyone on the phone. In one case, a customer's entire solar system was destroyed by wind in January 2021, yet the company kept billin

HelioPower installed systems that routinely failed to deliver promised savings, then disappeared when customers needed help. We analyzed nearly a hundred reviews and found a clear pattern: professional installations followed by expensive utility bills and unanswered service calls. One homeowner paid

Sunergy Construction appears to have gone out of business or abandoned support, leaving customers with broken systems and no recourse. One homeowner paid $10,000 out of pocket to fix a roof after Sunergy installed panels incorrectly in 2019, then refused all contact when leaks appeared. Another has

Tesla Energy is gambling with your home. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a company that can't activate systems, miscalculates energy production, and leaves customers trapped in 20-year leases with higher bills than before they went solar. One homeowner paid $78.69 into their utility's cre

We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a pattern of systems installed but never commissioned, failures ignored for months, and customers paying double bills while Solcius stonewalls. One reviewer paid for 21 months of a non-working system after install crews fai

Sunworks poses a clear risk. Over the past decade, customers report a company that overpromises and under-delivers, then vanishes when the system fails. One customer called 40 times to reach support after a panel quit working, only to be told the 24/7 monitoring they paid for meant they had to spot

SunPower is a gamble you shouldn't take. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a company with systemic failures in post-installation support and project management. One customer waited six months for a repair that should have taken days, calling weekly while SunPower claimed a mystery part was

Energy Remodeling leaves broken roofs and nonworking panels behind. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found a pattern of installation failures, unpaid subcontractors, and customer-service blackouts. One homeowner has called 20 times over two years to fix a documented roof leak; the company claims sh

This company's failures stack up fast. In one review, panels were installed but never turned on, and the installer left the homeowner with massive roof leaks and no accountability for two years. Another customer signed in October, had the wrong panels installed despite a clear upfront request, disco

Complete Solar will leave you holding the bag. We analyzed hundreds of reviews and found a company that ghosts customers once the panels are on your roof. One homeowner spent nearly a year trying to reach the company so a roofer could remove her panels for leak repairs, leaving voicemails and emails

Infinity Energy will leave your solar project in limbo for months on end. One customer signed in July 2021 for an installation promised in six weeks, paid in full, and still had no working system eighteen months later after three no-show installation dates and a surprise 40% price hike. We found 212

This company is a risk you shouldn't take. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a pattern: installations drag out for months or even years, final inspections fail repeatedly, and customers pay loans on systems that aren't producing power. One homeowner waited two years for simple inspections t

We found a troubling pattern that disqualifies Rethink Energy. Over two dozen customers report being lured in with promises of free attic insulation, whole-house fans, or LED bulbs, only to be pushed into solar deals and then abandoned when they asked about the original add-ons. One homeowner called
