I didn't want to have to write this review. Unfortunately, after being abandoned by Matt, I feel I…read morehave to. I contracted with Matt and the installer he represents, Radius Energy, to install two systems for the two homes on my property. The installation was full of issues. Under sized inverters, electrical code violations, no permits and no licensed electricians. It was clear that the installer's ethics were questionable. The final blow came when I was told that their contractor for submitting PG&E rebate applications had missed the rebate program deadline 4 months ago! I had been inquiring about the status of the application for months. This rebate was worth $15k and cost me $600 to have them apply for it. Matt has since backed away from this failure on their sub-contractor's part, suggesting I contact the CPUC. I would seriously recommend that if you're looking for solar, look elsewhere than Solar by Sexton.

If you are one of those reviewers, it really doesn't help us pick a good electric company. (Just like those doctor reviews that complain that his staff was rude, or wouldn't schedule an appointment, etc. - We still don't know if the doctor is any good, right? If he's the guy who can save my life, I'll work around his nasty staff...!) - Bendix installed our solar system and it has been working great. Rather than put it on our roof we had it installed about 100' down a hill on pedestals, and it has functioned perfectly. The installation was neat and professional. All wiring is wrapped and secured in place. He even ran a water line there so I can wash the panels now and then. The crew was polite and efficient and cleaned everything up, no construction debris anywhere. I had 2 quotes, and his was the lowest but only by a few hundred so price wasn't a factor. Glad I picked them!

Some were booked out, some wanted to schedule a time a few days out but with APG they tried to help me out right away. We got on the phone and started trouble shooting my issue. Coleby was very patient and great at explaining what to do. Luckily I had some DIY experience so it helped with the troubleshooting. It ended up taking a few weeks to trouble shoot cause there was snow on my panels but they were good to follow up and see if things were back online or not. Their effort and responsiveness really impressed me. My solar is back online thanks to them, and sooner than anyone else who reached out. You can tell they care about the customer, their reputation, and provide excellent value. This company is great and I have nothing but good things to say about them. Anytime my solar system needs work or an upgrade they will be the first company I call.

The owner is a 27 year old kid in Dubai and they hired crew from the valley and got rid of us, the long time install crew without even formal layoff paperwork. I've now been informed by both of the electrical supply houses in Sonora that APS stiffed them both for thousands of dollars each. I'm sad to see a business that I worked at fail due to incompetent new management. For any former customers seeing repairs or service to their APS installed solar systems please feel free to reach out. The equipment has manufacturers warranties and I'm very comfortable diagnosing and repairing our systems.

Nate and Hayden came out for an estimate to install backup batteries and suggested we apply for the SGIP program to subsidize the cost. We found an amazing company to help with the application, and after months of effort, we secured approval and notified APS. That's when things fell apart. Communication from APS became sporadic at best. Nate and Hayden would occasionally respond with vague promises to start the installation "as soon as they finished their current project." The receptionist, Ashley, seemed unaware of any delays and repeatedly assured us we were on the schedule--but nothing ever progressed. Despite our $32,000 contract, APS showed little interest in following through. We made dozens of attempts to connect, but were met with excuses, silence, or--shockingly--hung up on when they realized who was calling. Because of the lack of connection with APS Solar, the batteries approved by PG&E's SGIP program were discontinued. We went out of our way to secure these batteries through the inventory department. Guess what! Nate and Hayden ordered the batteries--and then continued their ghosting behavior. Did they get them for someone else? It's baffling why APS would ghost us after a signed contract, especially for such a significant project. Whether it's a lack of expertise or poor internal management, something is clearly wrong. After reading similar reviews about their ghosting behavior (unfortunately, after signing our contract), it's clear this isn't an isolated incident.

Their work is prompt, professional, and top quality. But what really sets them apart is Matt Warren. Matt didn't just handle the roof--he helped me navigate a long, frustrating battle with my insurance company, who did everything they could to delay and avoid paying. For three months and 50 emails, Matt was right there with me, offering guidance, support, and deep expertise not only in roofing, but in dealing with insurance red tape. Thanks to his persistence and knowledge, it all worked out in the end. If you're looking for a contractor who actually advocates for you, Warren Roofing is it. Matt Warren is a rare find: a true professional who has your back every step of the way. And my roof looks amazing!

Based on this I decided to call, them for a quote to expand my solar and battery storage systems. They are the 800-pound gorilla for this in our little community for this. I called on a Thursday. She (whom I won't mention by name) said she would call me back on Monday with the quote. Monday came and went. Tuesday came and went. As did Thursday, Friday, and the following Monday. So, on Tuesday, I called back. She was not in, so I asked to have her return my call. Wednesday came and went, Thursday came and went, as did Friday, Monday, and every day since. You have to wonder why someone won't call back as promised. Even if it was to say they could not (or don't want to) do the job. But to ignore me? I have since found two other companies that have quoted me.

In October 2020 I hired Mid Matthews to install a solar system on the roof of my house. The…read moreagreement that we signed included "10 years of monitoring service". In October of 2025 I started to receive error messages from Enlightened, the company that monitors the solar systems functioning. The messages also said that I should contact the installer to come out and inspect the system. At first I ignored the messages because I assumed the Mid Matthews was also monitoring the system and would contact me if there was a real problem. After receiving the error messages for several months I started calling Mid Mathews to discuss the messages from Enlightened. I never received a call back even after leaving numerous messages over a three month period. In the end I had to hire another company, Arcflash, to come out and inspect the system. There were problems with three of the twenty-one panels that were installed. Luckily the problems were all covered by the manufacturers warranty but what was frustrating is that in order to process the paperwork I needed to provide information that Mid Matthews had. Once I explained that Mid Matthews was unresponsive the manufacturer was able to track down the information for me. These problems could have easily been resolved if Mid Matthews had shown some decency and returned my calls. I assume that part of the price that I paid included compensation for the 10 years of monitoring service. But if Mid Matthews isn't going to use integrity and notify the owner when there is a problem with the system why even mention the monitoring service in the contract or charge for the service? After this experience I would caution people against using Mid Matthews for the purchase and/or installation of a solar system.
