For those of you that don't like to read a lot, here is the short version…read more.. You should look no further than A&R Solar for your solar needs. This is a fantastic organization with fabulous staff. Okay, here's more, if you are so inclined to read... Adding solar power is no small investment. Therefore, you should want to have the best information available when considering solar power. Solar is clearly a great way to go, both in terms of being friendly to the environment, and the savings that you can see in your energy costs in the future. Because the decision is so important, you will want the most knowledgeable and most professional people to provide you with every bit of accurate information so that you can make the most informed decision. The entire staff at A&R Solar are exactly what I've described above. They are professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and patient. I love how great they are about always getting back to me when I have another question. I have had direct communication with Jesse, Michael, Jen, and Karen. All were fantastic. I'm certain that these four are simply an example of how great the rest of their staff are. I wholeheartedly recommend A&R Solar. I would look no further than this fine organization for my solar questions and needs.

A and R sent their sales person to our house and he got right to work. He went into our crawl space under the roof to make sure our roof was properly supported for the panels. That was a relief as the other place wanted to send a structural engineer to do that very simple job and charge us for it. Ridiculous. Our project was two years, so the crew may be slightly different, but they were great. When there was an issue, like that we didn't have electrical grounding, they just put in grounding bars. Amazing! They offer production guarantees which is rare for a solar company, like those ones that come door to door. lol A and R was professional, easy to work with and easy to communicate with. Good job team!

I installed my solar in 2008. The people who installed it were amazing. Since 2008, every problem…read moreI've had with micro inverters, not working, issues with my panels, no output.... Elemental Energy has been outstanding in post customer care. In the eight years since I've had my system, I've only had two issues which were properly taken care of. The project manager in 2008 was absolutely awful. Poor communication and someone quit so my project got pushed to no-man zone- no one was taking care of my project or communicating clearly about what was going on. I didn't write a review in 2008 because I was upset about the process. However, eight years later, the install is absolutely fantastic and the product has held up really well. Plus the person who was so awful is likely gone so thinking you'll have a better experience than I did. I'm getting quotes on battery and they are the first person I called

The project went well, except for panel placement. We had indicated where we wanted the 19 panels…read moreplaced to achieve the best solar exposure. However, when the project was completed, the 19th panel was placed near the back of the house, which is shaded by tall fir trees. We could have gotten better results, albeit the difference is not particularly great. If they had installed the panels as we had indicated, I would give them 5 stars. As it is, during the summer months, we are producing enough electricity to send it back into the grid for a small credit on our PGE bill.

After extensive research, I decided to go with Sunpath for my solar installation. I began with no…read moreknowledge of solar energy but ended up understanding the different products and their pros and cons. The owner, Chet, conducted an on-site assessment and was extremely honest and knowledgeable. Chris, the designer, was incredibly patient, explaining everything in detail and even reviewing other quotes I received, offering his candid feedback. I spoke with several leading providers in Portland, but Sunpath earned my trust through their transparency. Maggie, the project manager, was a delight and efficiently scheduled everything. The crew arrived early today and completed the installation before dawn, and I couldn't be happier! They did an outstanding job. Special thanks to Johnathan and Kordon, the lead installer, who explained everything thoroughly, and to the technician, Keven, for his excellent work. The EV charger installer they hired was amazing too, they did the installation seamlessly without any visible wires. :) Here is a breakdown of what I've installed. - (30) REC 460 wattAlpha Pure-RX, all black solar panels - (30) Enphase IQ 8X microinverters - (1) Enphase combiner panel with system production monitoring - SnapNRack roof mount racking system - Installation of Level 2 EV Charger I highly recommend Sunpath to anyone considering solar. I truly believe that with their honesty and commitment to excellence, they will continue to thrive! Thank you everyone at Sunpath for this wonderful Solar Journey!

Spoke to John at Syncrho this morning about a solar expansion project on my home and adding to my…read moreexisting system. He thoughtfully and thoroughly explained the different options that I currently have left since my prime solar producing roof real estate is already full. He went far beyond what was needed, and even explained the finer details of buying a virtual net meter community solar system that resides elsewhere in the state being more beneficial to me than adding panels to my home that might cost more than the power I get from Portland General. I really appreciate the integrity and professionalism of someone who explains something at length and detail even if it won't necessarily translate to a sale. I will not hesitate to tell friends and neighbors to try out Synchro Solar for bidding processes.

Beware, this company doesn't show up to do work and disappears with your deposit money…read more For our Portland area project to install a whole-home Generac generator, Eric Bryant promised us a firm installation date in return for a large deposit, which we paid. Eric never showed up, then kept making excuses about being busy and promising to be in touch soon, then stopped answering altogether and kept our deposit despite that he has done no work at all. I see that a year ago another customer reported a similar pattern for their project.

Nobody should rely on any of the positive reviews here or elsewhere online, almost all of which are…read morefrom several years ago. Bryant took a large deposit from us for a Generac installation that was supposed to be completed by a specific, not estimated, date. He then effectively disappeared. We made multiple attempts to contact him for updates on the installation but were repeatedly ignored; when he DID finally answer us, he provided no concrete information about our installation. Bryant may respond to this review by claiming he was seriously injured in an automobile accident which made it impossible for him to keep a work schedule. However, Bryant failed to meet the firm installation schedule provided in our agreement BEFORE his claimed accident. It also is important to note that Bryant apparently went on vacation BEFORE the accident and as the deadline for our installation neared.
