My husband and I agreed to adding a second solar installation through Complete Solar during the first half of 2021, (forgive the lack of detail, it was only just completed in August of 2022 and I can't remember the specific date). The initial part of the process was easy, but it quickly went downhill. The install of the power panels happened right away they came installed and left. Then came the wait... We agreed to have our power panel upgraded through Complete Solar. They, contracted out the job, that install happened this... read more

*****, we are grateful for your feedbackyour experience is not what our customers normally go through with us and we've reviewed your case internally to make sure this doesn't happen again. We understand that the process took much longer than expected and the consequent frustration it caused. However, you made the right decision. You will save a lot of money with your new solar system, and I sincerely hope you will enjoy the benefits of it for years to come, despite the challenges you experienced.

I had Complete solar install 11 solar panels on my roof through PG&E some seven years ago . I later had Sunrun install 23 panels to support my needs .After getting very high True-up **** from PG&E i called Sunrun to invest to gate why such a high True-up ****. they responsed to find the 11 panels from complete solar had not been working in seven years. I am requesting complete solar remove their 11 ***************** ******* so i can have Sunrun add the additional palens i need. 

Business response:

Thank you, ****, for bringing this issue to our attention. According to your monitoring portal, your system has been producing since March 2017, and it lost communication in November 2021. I escalated your case with our service department team. They will run an underproduction analysis. **** and ****, our service area supervisors, will reach out to touch bases.Also, you should have access to your monitoring portal. This system allows you to track the production of the panels and identify energy usage habits. Additionally, yo... read more

Well, it's been a year and I am not benefiting yet from the solar installed on my roof. Tesla and Complete Solar designed enough for both units for the duplex I own -plus enough for a future electric car. Into the fall 2021, when I kept getting large bills for both units from PGE and pursued it with Telsa, PGE and Complete Solar, slowllllly, PGE figured out that the tenant's unit was connected to the solar panels, my unit was not. And the two units were not connected. Hence, not only am I not getting benefit of the $37k syst... read more

Business response:

*******, we greatly apologize for this inconvenience, and I understand your frustration. Our team is working with your utility company to get both meters to read the solar. Our service supervisor, ****, will reach back to you to touch bases.

Please read. I am one of the many customers dissatisfied with the company's professionalism and the communication of this Complete solar. I signed my contract in August 2021, and as of July 2022, my project is still not completed. I have had solar panels on my roof for over 6 months without inspection and generate electricity for the company we have no reduction of electricity cost for my family and me. Complete Solar reassured me that the installers at my home were not subcontractors. Later on to find out that they were sub... read more

Business response:

*******, we regret the inconveniences you have faced. Currently, your final inspection is scheduled for this upcoming Friday, July 27th since we were just waiting for the duplicates of your permits to arrive. Our team will contact you to confirm this visit.

Please do not do business with Complete Solar. I'm an installer and I will never do business with this company again. We completed 4 installations for them, and we've only gotten paid for one. It's been over two months without compensation for completed jobs. Complete Solar is out to hurt small companies by not paying their invoices. Hook me for more than ****** I can't say enough bad things about this company. If you are a contractor run away from this company. If you are a homeowner realize your property is at stake. Thier... read more

Business response:

******* were disappointed that you didn't have a great experience with us. We aim to do everything in our power to support and work with the best solar partners available, and we tried to make good business with you as well. However, for your installations, we had to send someone else out to finish the jobs, and we asked you for proof of quality which was not provided.

Well as I read through these reviews, I see that I am not alone in my frustration with Complete Solar. Our nightmare began in March of 2021. We just started generating power at the end of January 2022! Our project manager has been anything but helpful. He avoids answering any questions that deal with our frustration. I was told by the project manager that we would be generating power in advance of having the first installment due on the loan for the solar panels. Well, that did not happen! I received a **** from my power com... read more
