Richardson Solar Companies You Can Trust
Finding a good solar installer in Richardson comes down to experience, reviews, and warranty terms. Not all companies are equal.
Questions that separate good installers from bad ones
We analyzed thousands of solar company reviews. The top complaints: poor communication, delayed installations, and companies that disappear after the sale. These aren't edge cases - they're patterns you can avoid by knowing what to look for.
How do I choose a solar company?
Years in business. 5+ is good. 10+ is better.
Local presence. They should know Richardson permitting.
Warranty coverage. 25 years on panels, 10+ on labor.
Reviews. Check Google, Yelp, BBB.
Red Flags from Real Reviews
After analyzing 1,400+ negative reviews, these are the warning signs:
Frequent mentions of 'no response' or 'won't call back'
Reviews mentioning 'lies' or 'broken promises'
Complaints about 'pushy sales' or 'pressure tactics'
Reports of 'delays' lasting months or years
How to ensure your installer keeps you updated
The #1 complaint in solar reviews: "They won't call me back." This happens more than you'd think. A good installer responds within 24-48 hours. If you can't reach them before the sale, imagine trying to get warranty service after.
What questions should I ask before buying solar?
Who handles the Oncor interconnection paperwork?
What's your warranty on workmanship?
Are your installers W-2 employees or subcontractors?
Do your battery systems qualify for grid services programs?
