Freedom Solar

Established: 2007

EnergySage Rating Value: 5.0 from 35 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

Like most other modern technology it is great when it works but a pain when it doesn’t.
Freedom was able to get it sorted out for which I’m thankful they did work hard. It took longer then I wanted but that was not anything that could be controlled since the job required getting new equipment/ parts.
I’m thankful for Luke and his putting up with and working with me!

The last review from EnergySage:

Adi was communicative and helpful. He patiently answered all of our questions and was flexible with our timing needs. I had some concerns about the layout/aesthetics and he worked with us to get it exactly how we wanted it. Overall it was a great experience and we are glad we went with Greenbelt Solar.

The last review from EnergySage:

Drew, and his crew were able to give me the exact system we wanted. Others wanted to steer us to their preferred products. Crews showed up on time, did exactly what they said they would, and left everything clean and tidy.
We couldn’t be any happier with the DKD team.

NuWatt Energy

Established: 2010

EnergySage Rating Value: 4.5 from 52 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

I went with Nuwatt because I was very comfortable with their sales rep Maan. He was very thorough and patient in our decision making since this is a big investment. The project caught a few snags from Eversource but Nuwatt team was very responsive in getting the job done. The 8.16 kW PV system looks great on my roof and I am recommending Nuwatt to my neighbors and friends!

SunPower

Established: 1985

EnergySage Rating Value: 4.0 from 235 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

Evidently, my 3+ year old SunPower system is not compatible with SunVault. I have rev. C of the micro inverters…Evidently, SunPower only supports rev E&G …. VERY disappointing. Backwards compatibility of less than 3+ years??? Guess Rev D is out of luck as well…. what would that be 2 or less years?…. I though buying “Made In America” would have also included support worthy of such a statement ….

SolarUnion

Established: 2011

EnergySage Rating Value: 5.0 from 373 reviews


The last review from EnergySage:

I selected SolarUnion after an exhaustive review of about a dozen competitors — I was most interested in customer reviews and track record of completing the job. I’ve been burned before by selecting the low bid only to discover that you get what you pay for … namely, the low bidder will start adding things that are “out of scope”. SolarUnion bid a price for the work and came in at that price — no excuses for things they may have missed in the bidding process, no increases in costs for things that were left out of the original proposal. I found them to be responsive, attentive. I had two challenges with them that were overcome: (1) their primary on-site guy got sick so my job was delayed by two weeks (a few days for his health + 1 1/2 weeks to get my job re-scheduled). I felt they could have moved someone else … they claimed they put my job in ASAP. (2) I sometimes had to follow-up with status from them (which they were fast to respond) instead of them reaching out to tell me. Some of it was in my favor e.g. SolarUnion showed up on property to meet the City inspector and then I got an email (later that morning) that there would be a City inspection. Certainly not a problem. Other times, e.g. when the job was postponed, I followed up with S-U to find out what happened. HOWEVER, I’d give them 5 stars for everything that mattered — pricing, quality of work, speed of work once on-site and follow-through to make sure we’re connected to the grid. And they were always nice and responsive. I’ve already recommended them to two other friends.
