We had an outstanding experience with Venture Solar from start to finish. Their team was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to making the entire process smooth and stress-free. It never felt rushed or sales-driven--just honest guidance and support. What really stood out to us was their exceptional customer service --shout out to Matthew Kitman (Director of Community Outreach) for answering our questions, no matter how big or small, for dropping off merch and letting our three-year-old son help fly his drone. We highly recommend Venture Solar to anyone considering going solar--you won't be disappointed! (Milford, CT) read more

Alex went above to make sure everything was taking care of with the issue we had. He was professional and understanding to our needs . read more

Matt Kittman and all the employees are awesome. There were several hiccups with the project but finally on line and they have been very gracious and accommodating as we have come to the wrap on the project. read more

Awesome company - my electric bill is less than the $50/month that NJ gives to us through the NJ SuSI incentive guidance ($52/month for 15 years). Pricing is good! Service is great! Referrals have paid $1750 so far! Jack is super helpful. Free electricity! Highly recommend! read more

The folks at Venture Solar were very professional and communicative. I felt very supported through this process and every one of the reps that I've interactive it have been proactive and friendly to talk to! read more

I have to say my experience with Venture home has been completely amazing. They follow through with all the promises that they made, and I couldn't be happier and I would recommend them to anyone who asked. read more

Let me just say that Nat was amazing. She went above and beyond to help me today. 10 out of 10

Incredible process from start to finish. The sales process was smooth and transparent, no surprise fees or hiccups. They handled all of the paperwork with the electrical company and town and were very communicative through that as well. Installers got the job done in 2 days, were very professional and tolerant of my frequent check-ins and questions. I can't think of any way to make the process better. Now my electric bill is way down and all I had to do was sign the paperwork! read more

Excellent service, great value. Excellent follow-up and customer service. Very happy with my installation

If it sounds to good it probably is. I was promised a system that would more than cover my needs. In fact I am still paying more than $80 a month on top of the $25,000 for the system I had installed. This system will not pay itself off in my lifetime. When contacted Venture has not responded to my conscerns. Do your homework; I wish I had. read more

Had really great support from Venture's rep Spenser. Even though my situation was not their fault, he helped me understand the situation better and come up with a couple solutions. Great customer service! read more

I was initially interested in purchasing solar, but the process quickly became confusing. The salesperson repeatedly made changes to the equipment and contract terms, which created a sense of chaos and made it difficult to understand what was actually being offered. From the start, there was significant confusion during the proposal phase. I was encouraged to sign the contract with the assurance that I had 10 days to cancel, only to later discover that the actual cancellation period was just 3 days. The sales team was disorganized and appeared to make multiple errors throughout the process, leading to ongoing miscommunication between them and myself. The lack of clear, consistent information made it hard to feel confident moving forward. When I raised concerns, management--specifically to a manager named Josh while he did attempt to help the issues were not resolved, and several promises made during the sales process were not fulfilled. Important details were spread across multiple documents, making it difficult to fully understand the terms and conditions. As a result, the entire experience became frustrating, overly complicated, and ultimately felt like a waste of time. I had hoped ownership would step in sooner to address these concerns. That said, I did receive a phone call from the owner, Alex, who expressed genuine concern about what happened and apologized for my experience. He explained that steps have been taken to prevent situations like this from happening again. While it's too late for me to move forward with Venture, I do believe the owner genuinely cares about the business and is taking action to improve the process. Knowing what I know now that ownership would step in in the time of need shows that Venture Solar is in fact a company worth looking into read more

Honestly I'm suprised to hear about problems with this company. It's been five years since installation of my system. There were no issues, no suprises. I was able to accumulate 3 years of electric bills, and then worked with Alex to calculate the size of the system I needed to generate more power than I was currently using. I've been accumulating credits on my power bill. My contract also has a clause that the system has to generate a stated percentage of the designed power, or I receive a credit. I've consistently hit the targets so there have been no issues. I've added a EV plug to my house since then, and I'm thinking of expanding my panels. Honestly, no complaints. Do your homework, know what you need, and you should have no suprises. read more

I was surprised reading last 2 reviews below below as we had a wonderful outcome . We bought a house in Stamford CT and were left broke after the down payment. We needed a way to save on overhead. We reached out to 5 solar companies not a single one would meet with us because we didn't have the 2nd months electric bill. Not only did Venture come out they physically looked at the site and were able to tell me what I could save, We signed up got my first 2 weeks of usage. We then signed with Venture. I was constantly updated along every step of the way. I am now fully installed 3 months later and our first bill from the utility was for 35 cents. CAN YOU BELEIVE THAT!! We also charge our EV at home and pay nothing for fuel. I could not be happier. These guys are awesome. Not once did they try to bribe me for this review either. read more

We worked with Venture Solar about 2 years ago and they were amazing. Wanted to add more panels, and initially they were very responsive. But shortly after the lengthy first meeting, it was radio silence. Despite repeated follow ups, we never even got a contract, nor any response to our inquires as to why. They NEVER communicated to us again. Absolutely would NOT RECOMMEND. read more

My experience with venture solar was terrible. The sales rep came out, named Christine, after I saw Ventures ad, we had a meeting with me and a person, named Max who joined us in a zoom meeting. He apparently designs the plan for my house and figures out what the savings would be. It was an astronomical 25% of my electric bill, which for the month of February was $2200. I told her it was not worth investing in a solar system for that. I then asked about the possibility of placing some ground mounts next to the garage, which gets the best sunlight all throughout the year. I might note that I built this garage with Solar in mind. She said well "we're one of the only companies that do ground mounts". I said great! Then a technician came out and went over my house and the garage taking measurements on the house roof and the garage roof at that time I mentioned to him about the ground mounts next to the garage where I would clear it of all obstacles and trees. He took pictures and aid he would bring it to the team. I asked her about a proposal she said she was going to have sent to me, she replied Max was working on it and he would email me directly. After that, it was radio silence till a few days later when I received two phone calls from the Venture operations department asking me when would it be convenient for a technician to come out and measure the roof. To which I told her he had already been there. Then another person from operations called me and said that what the original technician didn't do was measure the roof of the house because of snow. I said that was fine and I told him about my frustrations with lack of communication with Christine, he said he would mention it to the sales manager. Then I heard from Christine after not returning my calls and she said: "Hey John, sorry about that, we're unable to complete a hybrid project". I asked her what a hybrid model was, and she replied ground mounts. I asked her why that was, and she replied, "Oh, well for one, our technician steered you in a very wrong direction". I thought to myself at that point why is his steering me in the wrong direction my problem or a reason for not going forward with my project? I replied. "The ground mounts were my idea, not his. I've since been told venture doesn't do ground mounts so that's probably why they didn't want to pursue my project after telling me all they were interested in was making me happy. And that they could do ground mounts and that they were the only company around that really does them well. . She replied to me "Okay we can't do a hybrid, We wont be doing any ground mounts on your property". I reached out to the owners, Alex Yackery and Alex Giles and they were not responsive nor had the courtesy to return my email and provide me with an explanation of the terrible service I'd received including their sales representative was providing customers with wrong information. After a little investigation and talking to some former employees, I found that a once reputable company has turned into a hard selling, not keeping promises, and deceitful to customers. I was told that the high ratings they have are fictitious. That explains a lot and well I thought I was dealing with one of the better companies. I learned the hard way. This shows me in their lack of respect for my time and treating me very poorly and that the Solar business is still a sleazy business, most of them just want to get you to sign on the bottom line, if you ask too many questions, they don't want to do it with you. I would think there's some consumer law against this type of thing. Finding an honest & good provider is next to impossible, I'm confident they are out there. I really thought Venture was going to help me rather than wasting my time. I felt the beholden to write this review and set the record straight amongst all these phony reviews. This company obviously is more interested in having customers sign on the dotted line as quickly as possible, and figure out the details later. That's why the solar industry has such a sleazy reputation. That's why if you contact a Solar company the sales person continues to call you until you are so frustrated with the amount of calls, you finally give in take the call. read more

In April, I paid in full for the installment of a roof solar system for my small house north of Boston. It is now almost October, and I have yet to see the system installed. My mistake. read more

VERY DISHONEST....I had the worst experience with this company. They make it extremely difficult to get a direct response, and they caused significant damage to my property without ever compensating me. They also refused to send anyone to repair the damage they caused. Reaching them by email or phone is nearly impossible, and when they do respond, their answers are evasive and unhelpful. This is by far the worst company I've dealt with, and you will end up being overcharged read more

Solar roof panels. Without hesitation, I can recommend Venture Solar. (josh.rosen@venturesolar.com) In October they installed solar panels on my roof after I interviewed and evaluated four other highly regarded companies. For the last six months my bill for electricity from Con Ed has been zero and I have been able to make more electricity than I use so I have some electricity now "in the con ed bank" that I can use at a later date when I need it. And for the last 2 months have been running A/C about 24/7. Venture Solar has the best technology and the best service. I worked with Josh Rosen who is a fantastic person to deal with because he is knowledgeable, professional, and extremely responsive. Anyone interested in solar I encourage you to contact Josh and look into this if your house has the right orientation for the sun. They are easy to work with and handle all the permits and interaction with the village, con ed and nyserta. They also provided the tax info I needed to get full refunds. I believe state and federal tax benefits are still in existence, I received about $11,000 in tax rebate and my net net cost is around $10,000 for the entire system which I bought and the payback time is about 4 1/2 years. So if you do the math, it's a no-brainer decision. It also adds to the value of the house when sold. The new owner basically gets free electricity. And their app to see and track electricity generated and used is great. read more

Some joker name Jermey texted me, this one day after I contacted another solar company for a bid. I had never contacted these people. He stated: "It's Jeremy, I am still with Venture. Recently heard about a good update on the last solar quote we gave you." I asked for the last solar quote (there never was one). He tap danced around. I asked for the original quote again. No response. I asked for the name and number of his supervisor. No response. In short these are lying, evil people, doing everything they can to get a bid to you. If you read their other reviews, you would never want to do business with them. read more

Competitive and communicative. Excellent customer experience team. The tax abatement took a little while to come through, but that was on account of local bureaucracy, and Venture was persistent and communicative all along the way. read more

These guys do a good job from the beginning to completing installation and all the way to customer service. I feel like I am actually doing something to help good ole Mother Earth! read more

If you are looking for Solar companies, there are better ones out there. LOOK ELSEWHERE. When we first purchased our home, within a week, a guy knocked on our door, and scheduled an appointment to have Venture come out to speak to us. On the day that they were supposed to come, we had another appointment that ran later than expected. I contacted them to advise them that we may need to reschedule, they were okay with it. I kept them informed. Later, after our first appointment finished, my husband and I talked and decided to postpone this for a later time and date. I called and advised them that we cannot proceed at this moment. They were presistant, and rescheduled the appointment. Again, something came up (It was particularly important) again, we decided to cancel, they would not take "no for an answer" and rescheduled for this 01/03/24. They sent Jose Barcia. This company cannot take "NO" for an answer. He came by, he called to let us know that he was running behind. His appt was for 9 am. He came in, gave us his pitch, and reviewed our electric bill. He advised us that we could potentially save on electricity if we went solar. Eventually, we decided okay, that might not be so bad, and began the process. Jose advised us that it can take a few weeks to get everything together, permits and what have you from our town, and install can take place around March/April. We were fine with that. Since I work from home it would be no bother at all. He ran our credits and decided that we were approved for the loan for solar. A few weeks went by, and I received a call (they should be calling my husband since its name on the solar) then they wanted to tell us that the home you just purchased needs permits for things that were there already when the house was bought and it's our responsibility. If I am being honest, I flipped. I told them "Since you guys can't and won't take no for an answer, then this should all be covered by Venture. It's not fair that when we purchased the house all of this was there, and Venture needs to cover the cost of all the permits that are needed. Venture pushed themselves on us and refused to accept that we can't proceed with this right now." To which Jose advised "I'll see what I can do." Keep in mind they have already come out and inspected our roof and advised that everything was in decent shape. Since then, I've had to reach out to Jose, and if I am being honest there's been no contact from him. When we text or call, he doesn't reply to call us back. Then when you call Venture, there is no response. No one answers. You MUST leave your number for a callback which occurs less than 5 minutes after you leave your number. This is absolutely unacceptable. I would not recommend Venture to ANYONE! read more

This is about venture solar. I needed service and I called 25 times to get to someone and no one calls back. They have aggressive sales people and their service is bad. It took a attempts to get my installation to pass inspection. Not worth it read more

I wanted to work with a solar company that was local so I called Venture and made an appointment for their sales to come to my house and do their sales pitch. The sales rep never showed up and called 40 min later saying he was on his way. I told him don't bother coming. I understand if you are running late due to traffic or unforeseen issues but he never called to tell me he was late and only called 40 min later. If that is how they are when trying to make a sale, can you imagine how they would be once they have your money? read more

Tyler and his team were awesome! It was really fun being able to see the metering as soon as the install was finished. Josh and Dan were super friendly and informative during the initial calls, and the overall process was really seamless. read more

I took my time and reviewed 4 solar companies before I chose Venture. Starting with Mike the sales representative and down the line everyone i spoke to was courteous and very informed. The crew that came out to place the panels were top notch Professional and great personality. I recommend Venture if you're looking for Solar.ed read more

All this fuss about going solar, renewable energy, and Peco, a subsiday of EXON, distributing, transmission of power. I got nothing. I never saw a bill under 100. The Peco company upped my charges for transmission and generation. Plus I pay 100. a month for solar panels. This is for rich people. The only thing I can say is I invested in reducing Carbon Emissions. read more

Couple of people rang my bell, said they were from Venture Solar. Told them to contact me in a few days for a time to come and talk to me, i gave them my phone number but not my email address. Shortly after i gave them my phone number i started getting spam calls. This company will NEVER get my business. After seeing the "real" reviews here i can see why they need to sell peoples info, the company is awful!!! Uploading a pic of my phone log, the only blocked out call there is the only valid call i had gotten, all others were spam!!! read more

Be very careful of any Solar Company especially Venture as their approach is captivating. I took bids from multiple outfits and did decide on Venture but what a nightmare! I'm in collections and my credit is effected along with zero accountability of my srecs (overage). Simply put ever solar company is hustling hard to use your house to make money for themselves. They're happy go lucky to sell you the world but after you sign the contract and they get paid you can't get any sort of customer service what so ever. The loan is thru a third party so once they get paid they wash their hands to any sort of service. Watch out for Arturo sales manager who will low ball all your quoted numbers verbally and assume your imaginary tax break super high inciting you into the project. I'd name my sales rep but he left the company very quickly after a short employment with Venture. I will say installer were great but the root of my problems all comes from Corp. read more
