The Bad

  • Limited Consumer Testimonials
  • Lack of Detailed Information

Limited Consumer Testimonials

There is only one customer testimonial posted on the company's website. There also appears to be no positive or negative third-party consumer reviews available concerning the solar company's services to be found online through a Google search. The solar services company could do better by providing more customer feedback on its corporate website.

Lack of Detailed Information

The solar company does not provide detailed information regarding its services on the corporate website. There is no FAQ section where consumers may get any answers to questions they may have. It is not clear if the company offers consumers a free quote or site evaluation for their specific solar installation project needs. The company also does not offer any information for consumers on the requirements for qualifying for a loan, lease, or power purchase agreement. No information is provided regarding any inverter warranties.

The Bottom Line

Solar States has over a decade of experience in the solar industry and teams members are fully licensed and insured. The company offers payment options and full warranties. All the details regarding a solar installation are handled directly by the company. However, customer testimonials and reviews are limited.
