Joining the solar panel world was something my husband and I were hesitant about. Nothing we read…read moreonline made us say, "Yep. Now's the time." After speaking with a representative of Volta Solar - everything was broken down for us into terms that made us decide to make the move to solar. We were informed of all the stories that are read online and how this particular company differs. We also weren't put on the spot to make a decision right then. The electricians responsible for the job were respectful of our home and our property. They even enjoyed having our dog in the yard with them. Everything was done in a timely manner and given to us as an understandable play-by-play. To no fault of their own (something to do with how our house was built), they did have to return the next day to finish one small task. I definitely recommend going through this experience with Volta.

We have been considering getting solar for several years. The price point was always too far out…read moreof reach. We had several companies come out and give us bids. We had companies bid where we could "lease" the equipment, a bid where we could buy directly from them and install the system ourselves which was supposed to save us nearly 40%. The company where we would install it ourselves told us it would "only take a day or two" to install the system. Luckily, before I pulled the trigger with any of these other companies, I met Patrick with Sovereign Solar. Patrick gave us a bid that was only slightly higher then the bid where we were going to have to install the system ourselves (including the permitting process and working with the local utility company.) Patrick did an excellent job navigating through the licensing and permitting process with both the local government as well as the local utility company. I can tell you this was not an easy process and one that I had no desire to deal with. Patrick and his team (Kyle and Ray) completed our project professionally and in a timely manner. Patrick has always been very responsive to questions and any concerns. I saved enough money that as an added bonus, I had Patrick install the "Sense" monitoring system so we can see exactly what appliances are using electricity and how much. So basically, if you are serious about getting a solar system....stop wasting your time looking around.....I have already done all the research and Sovereign Solar should be your first and only call.

When we decided to go ahead with Solar, we did our homework and interviewed several solar…read morecompanies. We decided to go with Sovereign Solar; based on how comfortable we were with Patrick's (the owner) knowledge base, and experience in the industry. They also had all the other options that the national companies have, including, access to high quality equipment, and financing options, but with a local presence in this area for several years. Patrick has proven to be dedicated to his customers, by always responding to our texts and phone calls without hesitation. In addition, Sovereign Solar USA and their employees worked with us to meet an installation date before the end of the year, with only a couple of months to do so. This not only included the actual installation, but also getting our Electrical Company's application processed. This was done without losing quality workmanship in the process. The installers Nick and Kyle also impressed us with their work ethic, knowledge, and customer service. Sovereign Solar USA is truly customer service oriented, and has worked beyond what was expected.

Junk product and an even worse company... Proud to say I got my 4 acre companies building not to use them. They lied to me...no respect for such such a place... If you are reading this DONT USE SUNSMART....they will tell you what ever to make the sale.

We installed their solar panels 2 years ago. Our electric bills are not as low as we expected them…read moreto be. Our latest electric bill showed we only produced maybe a quarter of the electricity we are using. The "savings" so far hasn't been worth the expense. To make matters worse, I have been trying for a couple of weeks to get ahold of someone to see if they can analyze our system but they will not call me back.

Terrible Experience - System Still Not Working and No Communication…read moreWe hired Lifetime Solar to install our solar system in June 2025, and months later it's still not working. In September, we found out the installation wasn't done according to the approved design plans, and no permit was ever posted or obtained -- which is a big problem both legally and contractually. We've tried reaching out multiple times by phone and text, and no one will call us back. It feels like once they got paid, they disappeared. At this point, we've had to send a formal demand letter asking them to fix the installation properly, get the required permits and approvals, and make the system operational within 15 days -- or we'll have no choice but to terminate the contract and take legal action. This has been an incredibly frustrating and disappointing experience. Avoid this company unless you want to deal with unfinished work, missing permits, and zero customer service.

i have to say run before doing bussiness with this company. I like Monica D and Wayne E also is…read morehaving trouble from this company. Signed contract in October hoping to get done by the end of Dec. and claim the federal rebate. Panels installed early November then nothing. I call the office and get no return calls. Then I hear from Drew from Lifeline Solar telling he'd be over seeing this project. Im the one calling him on updates only to here the same old story. Now its Feb. 2026 wondering if ill ever get this system on line. My patience with company is running out fast. Guess i need to start thinking of legal out. Payment are to start in May 2026. After reading all the comments I will seek legal assistance on this issue.
