Great team extremely helpful Edward was a great help with information highly recommend

Worked with Sun Solar on my current house and previous home. They were easy to deal with and the process was much easier than I would have thought. They provided great quality and value. read more

Great company to work with. Grayson Thomas was a pleasure to speak to and was very knowledgeable when going over our needs and design. The install team was exceptional. Alfonso, Joe, Alex, and Matt were prompt and professional. They worked in 100+ heat at times and managed to do a great job on the panels. These guys really are an asset to this company and I was glad to have them as my install team. Now I'm just waiting on final inspection but everything has been running as smooth as can be. Glad I chose this company to go solar. read more

Sun Solar - Solar Installation Near Me - Bakersfield, California

They have been the worst company to deal with. Incredibly non-responsive and have bungled one deal for the sale of our house and are delaying a second deal for the sale of our house. I would NOT recommend them if you want to lease your panels or will require communication from your solar company. They have been a nightmare. read more

After viewing all the competition, they came in with the best price and a much superior product. Very happy with our decision.

Good customer service, great explanation of pricing, customer service was amazing, overall great experience!

We already had SunSolar installed at our residence 2 years ago. A few months ago we decided to have it installed on our rental for our daughter. Only better things come with the most recent installment! once they got the go ahead they completely installed it in one day! if we ever have questions or concerns SunSolar responds quickly! read more

Do NOT go with SunPower! We have been without service for over a month, we've called 4 times to try to resolve it, our case has been "escalated" with not a single phone call back to schedule a visit. I can't believe after spending $30,000 on a system, how they treat the customer! Four calls from us and all they can say is "wait for someone to call you." I bet if we were leasing they'd be out tomorrow! Go with someone else! Not SunPower! read more

Sun Solar did the install at my house. The team was very quick and efficient. The best thing about the whole process is I have never had to pay Pg@e a dime in over three years!!! read more

I want to give an update on my future post. I still believe Sun Solar has poor communication with their customers. Saying they will call you back and don't and or keeping you updated with what is going on. I felt like I always had to call and would get a"let me find out and I will call you back", and never hear anything. Customer service is HUGE you need to show your customers that you care and you are doing everything you can to get the problem resolved. You can't tell your customer that i will only call you when i hear something or have something new to pass on. We need you to keep in touch with us. Anyway, they came out to fix our system it took just shy of 2 months to get the part in. They came yesterday morning and my system is working great it is producing a ton. I wish it would not have taken 2 months and I don't think that is acceptable. I hope we don't have any other issues that come up. Fingers crossed it stays producing like it is. read more

Process went very smooth. When ever I had questions they wer there to answer in timely manner

I am pleased with my system. It's only been turned on for a week, but it's doing what I expected it to do at this point. I appreciated that my solar consultant, Jordan, was not high pressure and was patient with me. I originally spoke with him in May 2019 and did not sign my agreement until the end of August 2019. Between dealing with my HOA and PGE, I was impressed with the speed of everything. It was only about 8 weeks from the Sun Solar team getting my signatures to us receiving the permission to operate from PGE for my solar system. During those summer months in between meeting Jordan for the first time and signing the agreement, I looked into several other solar companies here in Bakersfield. I spoke with about five different companies and not one was able to beat the price point for the size of system I had installed. At this point in time, I would sign up for solar panels again with Sun Solar. read more

Great Customer Service. I've had my system for almost 2 years. I have been extremely happy from the beginning with communication, response, and hardware installed on my home....not to mention not being gouged by the Utility Company. Today I called the office to see if I could get a copy of my contract, and spoke with Desiree. What a joy to talk to someone so friendly and provide exactly what I needed in less than 2 minutes. Keep up the great work Sun Solar! read more

Disclaimer: I work for SPBSS. But, I also am a customer. Our family decided to go solar, and we purchased from SunPower by Sun Solar. Just like everyone else, I have the choice of SunPower dealers. But, I chose Sun Solar since they/we do indeed have the best looking and cleanest installation, most experienced and professional crew, and best pricing for the best system. From start to finish, I was installed in 45 days. Awesome!!!! I put my $ where my mouth is. So, now I can tell you we/they are the best. Thanks Scott and Jeff!!! read more

Sun Solar - Solar Installation Near Me - Bakersfield, California

They did not install enough panels and assured us we could add but failed to say with a complete different system. We have had several issues with the equipment not working properly and they do not respond or fix it. I would give negative stars if I could read more

Best place to handle all things solar related. I transitioned to solar a few months back and they make it so easy. I will definitely be sending some of my clients their way! read more

Mahlon is outstanding. He is patient, knowledgeable, and always available to answer questions. As someone who knows nothing about solar, I've really appreciated his insight, commitment to education, and tremendous value he has brought to the whole process. Recommend very highly! read more

We live in Visalia and had our panels installed in Nov. 2020. We were supposed to be up and running by Dec. 2020. Today is May 4, 2021 and we still don't have our system up and running. Our house was Built in 1940 and we have an older electrical panel. We were told that the panel would be replaced and included in the price. Chris ordered and was our contact for Sun Solar stopped communicating with us, our emails and calls were not replied to. We've been getting the runaround with the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing and saying Edison or the city inspector is the hold up. Finally in April we had a city inspector come to inspect the system and Jose a technician, was surprised that we weren't up yet. Jose talked to my husband Doug and he said he remembers the conversation of them replacing the panel in the cost. No one knew where the paperwork was and they left with nothing being done. Last month we started getting emails and mail trying to get us to sign off on the work and to approve 80% of the funding. We haven't signed off to release the funds because our system isn't working. Now Sun Solar rep Devin, is saying that the panel was not included in the contract when we have emails, conversations saying the contrary. Sun Solar is now not willing to stand by their commitment to replace our electrical panel and not charge us for it. They are coming up with invalid excuses as to why they won't change the panel. One excuse was that the power lines go through a tree. Our power line to the house is a straight shot unobstructed by trees or anything else. We had the panels on our house for 5 months now and we still are not receiving solar power. read more

I have called a month ago, and I have called last week, my true up bill was $4500. and I pay a monthly $822 for solar. Not even worth it to me anymore. They have not been out to see what's wrong, Our panels are cleaned and we do keep up on them, they said a couple panels are not working, and they can see that in their system. So they are aware of the problem. If I had an answer to why and if they would contact me and do what they said they were going to do. I probably would not leave a bad review. Really a bummer when it was $3,000 true up in August, when I called the first time, and it went up $1500 in a month. so yes there is a problem and I can't even get a call back to come look. It would be cheaper for me to just stay with PG&E and not even have solar. read more

The solar educator and installers were fantastic. I have yet to start the service because the county dragged their feet with the contract, but this is not the fault of SunPower. Hopefully when they "flip the switch," my power bill will be reduced. read more

Countless calls and messages with no returns. Seems like they're just a virtual consultation but even that they failed at doing.

Great team, great company! Sun Solar's team is here to help ease your transition to solar!

Great company, recommend for solar ! Definitely has saved me money on my electricity bill. read more

Best part about Sun Solar - customer service! I was constantly in contact with various members of the Sun Solar team. They were always ready to help out and answer my questions. They guided me throughout the entire process. Definitely recommend Sun Solar!! read more

ETA: I am in Bakersfield We've had service with Sun Solar for several years and things seemed to be fine. Last month we received a True Up bill from PG&E for almost $2000, which is well above anything we've received before. I contacted our sales rep (who has always been responsive). Long story short, our system hasn't been connected to monitoring for almost TWO YEARS. When I asked about monitoring through Sun Solar I was told we, as customers, are equally responsible for monitoring through the app, but Sun Solar will take care of issues once it has been disconnected for 48 hours....yet it's been nearly two years. The company, I was told, is based in the Philippines so their business hours are incompatible. Also, there is no way Sun Solar can monitor all their systems, they just have too many, and the sales people told us our system would be monitored when we signed the lease but, oops, that ended up not being true after all. When I asked about reimbursement if the system proves to be faulty she said we wouldn't be eligible since the system is performing as promised, but I'm not sure how she knows that when the monitoring system isn't functioning and hasn't been for nearly two years. Then I was told, over a week ago, that they were going to order a part without anyone ever coming to our home to check the system. Today the part has not been ordered because the one person that can order a part has been out of the office for a week? Maybe two weeks? He might have been sick or he might be on vacation, the story varies. I was then told that I, as the customer, am the only one that can "escalate" this with anyone above the local office, all she can do is send an email and loop in people - which is what she supposedly did last week. She also read the email to me and it said "the customer keeps calling". So there's that. After we ended our call, I called corporate and was told they aren't able to do anything more. She said her side of the notes don't show that a part has been ordered - they're still waiting for approval to order the part that they're not even certain is the problem since no one has come to look at the unit. When I asked for clarification I was given a lecture on 3G vs 4G/5G conversions and that my unit was 3G but now everything is 5G .... so I interrupted and asked to speak with a supervisor. I'm currently on hold to speak with a supervisor at corporate; it's been 23 minutes and 37 seconds. The rep told me there probably isn't anyone available who could speak with me and they won't be able to help me anyway, but I insisted. *Update: at 25 minutes, she came on and said no one is available and they should call me back in 1-2 business days. I first contacted our sales rep on May 30. Today is June 22 and exactly nothing has been done. We're locked into a lease so they're dutifully getting their money every month without doing a thing to hold up their end of the agreement, and we have no recourse. read more

I've experienced a lot of other solar companies soliciting me with unprofessional tactics and now most of those are out of business....go figure. But Sun Solar has been a completely different experience for me and my family. Very professional, upfront and honest about what would be best for my family. Thank You Drew Martin! Call him if you need solar and want great service! The warranties on their panels are a lot better than any I've found at other companies which is a big plus for us. read more

I have had a Sun Solar system for almost 8 years now and couldn't be happier. I trust this company and it's representatives (like Mahlon Davis). They are the leading local experts in Bakersfield. I highly encourage you to seek out their expertise and service when deciding to go with solar! read more

We purchased our system 3 years ago and couldn't be happier with our choice! I highly recommend them to all of our friends and family

Corporate sales office refused to give any quote for an installed 10.5kW (annual) system (approximately 20-25 panels) . Cash purchase (no lease). Uninterested in installing a non-leased system: "that's not how we do business". Would not discuss details of the type of panel or inverters they would use. Wanted monocrystalline panels with microinverters (enphase, etc) but they refused to discuss. Wanted sales to push for a leased/partial payment system. Plenty of other competitors for solar panels. Several have provided itemized free quotes. read more

This company is no good in service. Will not return your call on a warranty. Better off going with its competitor . I regret going with this company . I will never recommend . read more

As good as it gets! We had solar that came with our house. However, at years end we found ourselves with a huge true-up. We contacted Andrew and he came to us and showed us what we could do. We added 22 more panels to our existing 16. The new system by SunPower is producing twice as much as the year old 16 panels that came withe the house. We now have all our power needs being met at over $100 less per month. Service team was awesome, system looks good, took less than two days for the install, and the team left no trash or things to wrap up. PG&E approved the system for use on Sunday and Monday morning Project Management called to setup an appointment to instruct us on how the system worked and to get us online with the monitoring tools. They also told us we could turn the system on when they called so we could start producing power the day before they came out. GREAT JOB! read more

The BEST solar company in town. We have used them for our last home as well as our new home and have been very happy with their professionalism and nice clean installs. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for solar. read more

So far dealing with sun power has been a great experience very honest Bobby Blackmon is a very honest and Good guy recommend him highly

They installed their solar panels without updating electrical panel. I've had nothing but problems since. Thousands of dollars for electricians to keep my power on. When I complained to Sun Solar, they sent out their personal electrician who reported my pre-existing panel was well within specifications. I don't know why the city inspector felt it was OK at the time of installation, but 4 out of 5 electricians agreed that the solar company should have replaced the panel. I've already specified who the 5th electrician worked for. Additionally, I'm now paying more for utilities than I did before getting Solar. read more

Giovane helped me get solar set up on my home with ease. More KW for less than anyone else. They are the highest rated that I've found.

I really don't know where to begin, this company is good at not giving you full disclosure....you need to do your research, its been a few years now and I'm still encountering issues thats stiil costing me $$$ ... read more

Our friend recommended Sun Solar to us when we bought our home and received our summer bill for around $900. We called for a home consultation and met with Andrew. We had many doubts about solar and decided to pass. Then the next summer came and we did everything to make our home more energy efficient. We still got a high PGE bill and called Andrew again. We leased and had our system up and running within a month. From the salesman to the install and even billing team were all great to work with and pleasant. Our system was built just right so we earned a credit the 1st year and 2nd true up was $80. Now just getting our 3rd we had a true up of $160 but that was with the ENTIRE family being home 24/7 due to COVID-19 and distant learning. read more

I like to do a little research when it comes to investments and home improvement. Scott from Sun Solar was straightforward and brought his, "first and best" when I asked for the bottom line. The other companies (and I sat with all of them) kept sweetening the deal that they said was their bottom line.... When I ask for your bottom line give it to me!!!! Stop telling me you will beat any price! Anyhow Sun was the lowest price for the most efficient panels.... Installation was quick and painless... less that 60 days from the day I signed..... This outfit is awesome, price, and service were the best! read more
