It did take some time for them to respond to my numerous requests, but the result was that they showed that my initial trust in them was warranted. I will continue to do business with them, AND recommend them to anyone seeking a solar energy vendor, as well as anyone seeking to improve their home's energy efficiency.

Updating my review for two reasons: 1) it's clear that leadership at the company is focused on…read morecustomer satisfaction and improvement now since they recently reached out to discuss my experience and they worked to make it right. So my guess would be that if someone did a job now, they would make sure the customer was happy (versus ghosting them like in my case in the past); and 2) I have no ongoing complaints about the work. Our house does appear to be better insulated (I.e., energy costs are lower in the summer and winter) and we haven't had any additional leaks or other issues.

Great service and one of the only companies willing to take our smaller job. So far so good.read more

I had a very disappointing experience with Solar Solutions and would not recommend them…read more First, I referred my neighbor to them after being told I'd receive a $600 referral credit -- I never got it. When it came time to get panels on my own roof before the tax credit deadline, the process turned into weeks of back-and-forth. At first, they agreed to a price match with a competitor, and I also asked that their 10-year roof leak warranty be extended to 15 years, which they initially agreed to. However, when it came time to sign, they raised the price without any discussion, refused to honor the price match, and said it "should never have been offered." They also bad-mouthed the competitor (which came across as unprofessional) and told me it was essentially "take it or leave it." Given the limited time to secure the tax credit, this was incredibly frustrating. I walked away -- I would rather not install solar at all than work with a company that operates like this. To make matters worse, my neighbor's project (the one I referred) was mishandled as well. His roof needed repairs before solar panels could be installed. Solar Solutions told him they'd address it, but they didn't -- they just installed the panels anyway. When my roofer came out for my home, he also inspected my neighbor's and confirmed the roof needed major repair. My neighbor then had to call Solar Solutions back to remove all the panels so the roof could be fixed. What a mess. In short: broken promises, unprofessional conduct, and careless work. I strongly recommend looking elsewhere if you're considering solar.

The owner, Elena, was very professional, always helpful when we called with questions, and A pleasure to work with. The experience was great and I'm loving my $8 electricity bills (basically the connection to the grid fee)

For several years, I had considered going solar, and after thorough research, I finally decided the…read moretiming was right. That's when the real work began. I was very specific about how I wanted my 10 KW system designed--both in scope and budget. I also wanted to work with an installer who was deeply familiar with the incentives available in my area. That criterion alone narrowed down the list significantly. When I began reaching out to various companies, I quickly discovered a frustrating trend: many solar installers were locked into a rigid, one-size-fits-all approach and were unable (or unwilling) to work outside of a limited system design. My project required string inverter build, which further complicated the search. Another challenge I encountered was a general lack of knowledge among some companies' sales teams. Many couldn't confidently discuss critical elements like system components or even the federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which is currently in the phase-out period--making it even more urgent for homeowners to act now. After speaking with many companies, I had the good fortune of connecting with Ms. Elena Zenke, owner of Bee Happy Solar. From our first conversation, I knew she was different. She was knowledgeable, flexible, and respectful of both my timeline and payment preferences. She welcomed my involvement in the design process, listened to my needs, and collaborated with me to ensure the system met my vision. Bee Happy Solar is the only company I know of that offers both string inverter and micro inverter solutions, which speaks to their technical versatility. A few months after my installation, I upgraded my home modem and lost connection to my inverter's monitoring system. Elena personally came back to my home and assisted with a support call to the micro inverter manufacturer until the issue was resolved. That level of post-installation service truly solidified my trust in her and her company. The installation crew was professional, efficient, and meticulous in their work. One of the installers even helped me resolve a minor issue with my skylight--completely unrelated to the solar project--and did so at no charge. That act of generosity did not go unnoticed. Post-installation, Ms. Zenke continued to go above and beyond. She assisted in completing additional paperwork for incentives such as the Baltimore County Property Tax Credit and the Maryland Solar Access Grant. In summary, Bee Happy Solar exceeded my expectations at every stage--design, installation, follow-up, and incentive processing. I would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone considering solar, especially if you're looking for a customized approach backed by exceptional service and expertise.

As a family of 4 with 2 full-time working parents and 2 babies under two, Celestial Solar's support was nothing short of amazing for us. Jim and team are a good mix of professional and knowledgeable, and have been (and still are) genuinely nice to me and my family. They understand the complex nature of adding solar panels to your home and provide accurate estimates, recommend the best tech for your situation, walk you through the entire process, and have an awesome installation team who were efficient and installed everything without any hiccups. The extra support they also provide by completing permit paper work and communication on your behalf, mixed with the professional, yet fun, installation workers that my kids really liked, made this experience great for me and my family.
