I was told this was due to long waiting periods to get government approvals. Anyways, I finally received my first cheque from my hydro company and made more than I was told by Grasshopper, so I'm pretty happy about that.

We have been experiencing the benefits of Solar generation and the job look amazing. Anyone can attest to the fact that solar panels are not necessarily appealing. The roof racking system Guelph solar uses looks great, low profile and very clean looking. My home is almost 200 yrs old, so something as modern as solar panels can certainly look out of place. Not so with this install. I recommend Guelph solar and especially Misha my rep, great guy. The owner Steve took the time to follow up with us and cares how things finish up.

Stay away from this company. Do not release your final payment until the work is fully completed…read moreand every promise has been fulfilled--not a moment sooner. Swetha Kumar, who presented herself as the "point of contact," pressured me into making the full payment immediately after the solar installation and then completely disappeared. After receiving payment, there was no communication whatsoever. I signed the contract in May 2025 expecting professional service, but instead faced constant delays, excuses, and misleading information. After months of persistent follow-ups, the system was finally installed in November 2025. What makes this situation even more disturbing is that they knew they were heading toward bankruptcy, yet they still initiated communication with me, continued the project, and collected the full payment without completing the work. I was again pressured into making the final payment before the ESA inspection and meter change were completed, leaving me unprotected. Repeated attempts to contact the company afterward were ignored. When I finally visited their office in person, I discovered it was closed. I later learned they had also failed to pay rent for months, affecting not only customers but their landlord as well. It has become clear that this company has no intention of completing projects once payment is collected. Based on my experience, they appear to shut down and reopen under new names to continue misleading others.
