Best Solar Installers

Inland Empire

SolarGoingUp is too risky to trust with your roof. We found 20 reviews describing persistent leaks that started after installation and a company that stopped responding when homeowners asked for repairs. One reviewer paid for a new roof before the install and now deals with water damage every time i

City First Electric is a gamble you shouldn't take. We found a company split into two: one set of technicians praised by name in hundreds of reviews, and another group accused of systematic overcharging and fabricated diagnoses. One customer hired City First after a different contractor left her hom

Good Energy Group isn't worth the risk. We found a company split into two extremes: customers either love them or they're battling unresponsive management over serious installation defects. One homeowner had four electrical outages in four days after the crew touched their breaker box, and when an i

Energy Renovation Center isn't worth the risk. We found 38 reviews describing systems that stopped working within a year, warranty claims that went ignored, and customers stuck with solar loans while still paying full electric bills. One homeowner had to chase the company for over a year just to get

Sunscout abandoned multiple projects right before customers could lock in thousands of dollars in utility rebates. We found at least three homeowners who installed panels in spring 2023, only to discover months later that the company never submitted their SCE applications, costing them NEM 2.0 grand

Blue Raven Solar is not worth your time or money. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a company whose operations have collapsed under its own growth, leaving customers stranded with damaged roofs, faulty panels, and support teams that ghost them for months.

We analyzed over a hundred reviews and found a troubling pattern: 45 customers describe system failures, no-shows, and billing for

This company should not be on your list. We analyzed hundreds of reviews and found a pattern of catastrophic project failures and vanishing support once the contract is signed. One homeowner watched workers shoot nails through rotted decking that blew out the bottom of the eaves, then spent nine mon

Pure Solar Power isn't worth the risk. We analyzed dozens of reviews and found a company that leaves projects incomplete, ignores customer calls for months, and hands out bad equipment. In one case, a homeowner paid $18,000 for panels that generated zero credit toward their electric bill for five ye

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

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. One homeowner paid off their solar system in full only to discover the elect

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

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

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

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

V3 Electric is not a company we can recommend. One homeowner lost two years of her life to a botched installation that began with deception after her husband's death, left nails scattered across her yard that punctured two tires, and ended with tarps and bricks blowing around on a leaking roof that

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

Sun Energy Partners is not a company you should hire. We found a clear pattern of fraud and negligence that makes this contractor an unacceptable risk. One homeowner lost thousands in rebates after Sun Energy Partners failed to file a simple agreement by deadline, then refused to fix the error for t

Sunrun will charge you while your panels sit broken. We analyzed thousands of reviews and found a company plagued by systemic breakdowns that leave customers trapped in multi-year cycles of non-functioning systems and finger-pointing. One homeowner reported paying $111 monthly for over a year while

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

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

This company is not safe to hire. 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

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

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
