    Getting solar with this company was one of the worst decisions of my life. Not that they are a…read morecompany anymore. But I just want to add my story. After being transferred to 4 or 5 different point people and a YEAR after I paid my first $7500 installment and they had sat on that money interest free for one year, I pushed VERY VERY hard to get them to start installing the solar. By that point they had forgotten that I had paid for the system and was not renting it.... I'm convinced that if I hadn't pushed extraordinarily hard, that I would have never got my solar. They also lost all the preliminary work they had done and had pics from someone else's house thinking it was mine. The roofers they picked included one person who was literally a child. They did such a terrible job that I got $11k of damages in the first precipitation. TWO leak points. One on the chimney and one on the swamp cooler. I lost a whole month of work and Brett won't give me the time of day. Now i'm trying to get my money back. While the roofers were sub-contractors, Enlighten Solar workers inspected their work and still chose to put the panels up. They looked past all the terrible work, including two spots where they just tacked tiles to rotted wood underneath. Rows of shingles went off in weird angles and they tried to skimp on materials by not overlapping the shingles properly. There was no flashing at all around the chimney. But the Enlighten ppl did their work. They cut air intake lines below what code allows to fit panels without asking me. Then the first precipitation, there is a river running in my walls. Feb 2025, the all the panels come down, all the roof redone, and i had interior crews working on my place and spreading particles of rat droppings literally everywhere. It is August i'm fighting not to be ghosted and still get my money back ($14k). I am SO tired of dealing with this company. This was supposed to be done in 2023. I would not be shocked if i'm still dealing with this in 2026. I know there were some really sad circumstances involving the company. But I think there were also critical issues of mis-management that are just not okay in any circumstance. I observed just unreal levels of lack of coordination. It was a true shit show from start to finish. One thing is I was told that my situation was the first time they deal with anything like this (Brett Jarman said)... Turns out, i've met some other people now who had the same bad experience and outcome as me. I see the similarities. The fact that they take more money for deposit than legally allowed. They take forever and sit on your money. They do sub-par work and ask for payment promptly upon completion of work. When things go wrong, they ghost you and try to create ways to delay addressing the issue which they NEVER intend to actually solve. Please refer to Stacey's review ($200k of damages) and other stories, seems like my situation was NOT unique. This makes me call into question ALL of the "truths" that I had in my head. I wonder how many of the excuses were straight up lies. I really think that this group of individuals ride the line between legit business and a scam. There seems to be enough people who have gotten screwed here. Some of us are starting to collaborate. Feel free to join the party. I'm considering a class action lawsuit, so feel free to reach out to me other people who left terrible reviews and other people who got screwed over by this company.

They got me a proposal quickly, were transparent…read morethroughout the process, communicated consistently, and their online portal made everything easy to track. Every person who came out was professional and respectful. What really set them apart was handling both our full roof replacement and solar installation together. I didn't want a roofing company and solar company pointing fingers at each other down the road -- OC Solar eliminates that headache entirely. Their pricing was competitive, and their substantial warranty sealed the deal. Highly recommend them if you're considering solar!

    It has been about 8 months since the project was completed so I feel I can write this review fairly…read moreabout my experience. It was pushed to get it in before the credits ended. For the quick summary, there was a mistake in my installation, it was not handled well and the system works well but only after a long struggle. They price match but hard to say if I felt good about the price in the end either. Overall, it is very mediocre. After talking to 4 companies, I decided to go with OC after they honored a price match from a competitor. It was a fairly large system, 15 panels and a Tesla power wall 3 and needed to be added to existing system as my current one was underpowered and required due to new builds in California. Total was about 33k, out the door. It may not have been the cheapest offering but shopping for solar is not my favorite experience and I went with what I felt was at least fair for what I got. I primarily worked with Don from sales and Brooklynn and initially seemed fine and for all intents and purposes, it should have been. I chose to get HOA approval and pay for it myself so it did stall the project through no fault of OC. My HOA requires applications for major projects to be submitted along with a sizable fee, and I chose to do it by the book. I dropped the first major deposit of 10k and the installation was scheduled around July 2025. The next part is where the struggle began. The day of installation, the installers tell me the panels cannot fit in the design that they were given. They asked if I wanted to pivot to another part of roof and just install it then and there. I call OC and they admit the design cannot possibly fit my panels on this small area of my roof and I cancel the project and have them redo the plans and for me to go through HOA again. This leads to a very frustrating back and forth with Don and later Brookylnn's superiors as I no longer heard from her. I had about 10 calls or more trying to clarify what to do next and was met with a lot of resistance about what happened. It turns out the plan was actually the original estimate from Don (sales) and for some reason just pushed through their architectural team without consideration of the size. Don's superior Chandler even spoke with me about this and though I can't recall their explanation for this mistake, they spoke as if this was my issue with wanted to go through HOA and that they had no power to stop the project. If I had written this review after this call, I'd recommend no one work with these people. It felt frustrating and at times demeaning, given that they do this all day and I don't know what I'm talking about. After I got my second approval, OC refunded my fee to the HOA approval, but only after I explicitly asked for it. We eventually moved forward with the project and inspection when fine. My guess is had we not had this irresponsible prelimary design provided by Don go through their "architectural" team it would've been fine and none the wiser. As of this writing, the panels are working as intended and I had such a sour experience, I just moved on. But now Don and company requested a review for their internal systems, so here is it and a Yelp one that they did not ask for. In the end, like most of these experiences, it's not the mistake that upsets me, it's the handling of it. Communication started fading when things got more difficult and the lack of empathy or consideration for some dropping this much money on something they will do maybe 2-3 times in their life is disappointing. Much of the time I asked them and myself, how should I know this plan wouldn't work? Sure the HOA can't legally stop me, but I have to live with them, not OC. Whoever may have gotten this far, thank you for hearing my rant. Odds are you will have a fair experience but the truth is, most of these companies are interchangeable. They are all middle men and their strength and differences lie in the customer service and coordination. I didn't expect but solar buying is probably more similar to going to a car dealership. Do your research, advocate for yourself and don't get your hopes too high and it will probably be fine. As for OC, I think in the end they are just mediocre. They're like anyone else you may talk to. The processes are probably similar and I'm glad the system has worked well, which helps my scoring of this review. Maybe they just got lucky with me at the time, as I was getting fed up talking from one salesperson to the next and they price matched. I'm sure others will and can do the same so whoever you go with, as long as you are on top of it, it will go fine.

    Review Update: After…read moremy initial review, Eric (the sales rep) and Matt (the owner) of Sunline personally reached out to me and was apologetic about the situation. They sent Travis out promptly, who is their electrician where he found that the issue was resolved by replacing a faulty 40-amp breaker that was intermittently providing the necessary voltage, even though measurements initially appear correct. While the breaker issue caused real inconvenience and unexpected costs on my end, the owner was responsive and showed willingness to smooth things over to work toward a resolution. I also want to highlight that the panel upgrade and solar/battery installation itself was clean and well done. The workmanship that Eddie, Manny, Christian and Jamie performed had overall met my expectations, and once the issue was identified, Sunline did step in to correct it. No project is perfect, but how a company responds when problems arise matters a lot. In this case, Sunline's owner and Eric was engaged, responsive, and made a sincere effort to make things right. As an engineer, and after witnessing the symptoms and corrective actions firsthand, I believe the breaker issue was likely a manufacturing defect, and it was unfortunate that it occurred during the holidays. That said, based on how Sunline handled the situation, the overall quality of their work, and the value they offer, I would recommend them and plan to continue using them for future needs.

No call no show. Contacted him to ask what happened, stated the appointment never went to Carlos, he's sorry. I said okay things happen, what next? Matt stated he has satellite pictures of the house and would send over some estimates......a week later we're still waiting. Decided to go with another company. ps, Nice try. Since you failed to post the follow up email you wrote after I sent that, I'll do it for you...
