Best in Phoenix AZ

These guys were super expensive, and when I reached out to them with my concern about why I was charged so much (they didn't even need to fix anything, it was a tripped breaker!), he couldn't even return my email. Good luck if you use them, just be prepared to break out the check-book!

From the initial sales contact that we initiated to the process of getting permits, approvals and installation the process was smooth, the communication was excellent and the end result has been as expected and promised.  
The above and beyond follow-up after our system was installed was very much appreciated, our interactions with everyone at Sunny was always professional and the responses always prompt.
They definitely exceeded our expectations at every turn.

Caliber Roofing was great to work with for my roof replacement. They removed old broken down solar panels and swamp coolers from my roof that have been an eye sore for years.

We got several estimates and are happy with our decision to go with Caliber Roofing! I would highly recommend them.

Aneva did the ground installation of the solar panels for us last summer. Yep, their crew worked smack in the middle of it. We do appreciate  all the work the kids had done and it looks awesome and also produces  a lot of energy.
We picked Aneva for the following reasons:
1. Sales guy Mark G is a pro. He looked at our house, consumption and offered a solution that fit us specifically. We did not even think of ground installation but it did turn out to be the best fit for us. When you have an expensive clay tile, installing solar panels on them is not an option- contrary to other contractors belief ;)
2. Crew is wonderful and worked their buts off in this heat. I had to work a lot and was not up to supervising but they really did not need to. Their PM even stopped showing up- but I am sure he would if you prefer more hands on experience.
3. We are getting a Lot of solar even though a tid bit of panels are in a shade in the morning. Aneva has a design person who works with your sales guy to come up with the great design for placement based on the lot or house.
Couple of things to share - hopefully informational and some are general solar related ;)
1. If you want solar and want to finance - use anything but solar financing.. it is predatory and usually comes at 20% upfront fee( yep still legal). We were explicitly told about it by the other bidder but would suggest to Mark to include this bit of info in the discussion.
2.probably would have done a bit more communication upfront as we had no idea what went into plans, approvals until I asked a day before the work started. It turned out great anyway;) and I would rather be hands off than on. bottom line is if you are more of a control freak - your sales guy and front desk are super responsive so just ask them.
3. Whoever was depositing checks along the way (4 payments I believe ) was above replying to emails. Again that's why Mark and front desk are there to help
4. Aneva has a special clean up guy!!! He is awesome and takes care of everything that PM could not
5. I think it takes some time to figure out but generator is really helpful on big ground jobs. Our outlets were not able to carry the needed load. So the crew rolled in one.
6. We had to replace the electric panel and the crew did it wonderfully. But picture having no electricity/ Wi-Fi for half a day in AZ summer...
7 Solar install is still quite expensive but electricity costs from the grid are not going down either. Although we are not completely independent we do enjoy with Aneva's help ;) -generating solar power, paying at this point almost nothing to APS and occasional enjoyment from virtue signaling to all the Prius and Tesla drivers ;) oh yes, and the fed tax refund too

Ryan and his crew arrived exactly at the start of my scheduling window to install a 50A circuit for our new hot tub. Work was completed in a timely manner and for a fair price. There was a minor hiccup when the hot tub installers went to connect things. Ryan was at my house within 10 minutes and got everything online. Exceptional service and a good value. Will use again if I have an electrical need.

Excellant people from the 1st consult all the way to the installation. Very professional yet personable. We had both a solar tube and a roof fan installed. Both were complicated, yet expertly installed. LOVE the bright bathroom!!!

We chose Black Platinum Solar & Electric after getting quotes from a few companies.  They also came highly recommended by a friend.  Our friend's recommendation mirrored what you see in many Yelp reviews and our experience matched up.  They're a smaller company so everything was very personal, friendly, and competent.   From the beginning, David was low key, low pressure, and helpful.  He spent over an hour answering all of my questions and explaining the ins and out of solar.  Throughout, he was bending over backwards to not push or pressure for time in any way, which was different than other firms that used expiring credits and changing utility rate structures to subtly pressure to move quickly.  He also never tried to sell any kind of financing package where the installer can make extra fees from the lender.  

Once we decided to move forward, all of the contracts and approvals were electronic, which I appreciated -- it made things very easy.   They communicated how things would work, what they do vs what I do, and how long it would take.  The only things I had to do was submit to my HOA for approval and do some touch up paint in the garage where they wired in a panel.  Black Platinum did everything else with the City and APS.   The panel install took 2 days as planned.  During the following week, a new breaker box was installed and inspections were performed.  They arrived about 20 min early each day of the installation, and the whole crew was extremely friendly and professional.  They kept everything clean and once finished, you couldn't tell they had been here.   John Black came out at the beginning of the first day to introduce himself and the crew and collect an installment.  He really knows his stuff and was more then willing to explain anything I wanted to know.  He was an email away throughout the whole process, including once we were up and running and just getting into the app to see solar production stats.

I think I got a bit lucky with the time of year and with the length of time inspectors and APS can take, but I was up a running 1 month after signing the contracts.  Really impressive!

Overall I'd sum up that trust is important when installing solar because it's a big project on your home.  You don't really know the people doing the work and you have to take a bit of a leap that they are trustworthy and know what they're doing.   John, David and the rest of the Black Platinum crew lived up to what you see in Yelp reviews.   The job was done with extreme competence and they're the nicest people you'll meet.

We have had our solar for 9yrs, our installation was seamless and follow up service has been appreciated.  I live in Sedona where a summer APS bill can be 200$ or more!!  We are feeding the grid daily and I'm proud to say last July our bill was 16$!    Rooftop solar has been a pleasure to work with!

Mr. sunshine was responsive and informative when it comes to Arizona solar. He is friendly and easy to converse with and very knowledgeable. He came to our house to survey the structure and understand our energy goals.

Tim (the engineering guy on the team) provided information about generation and connections to the grid and was very informative about getting solar installed along with flexible scheduling.

I had some scheduling issues that will delay the installation, and this awesome company understood the situation that will delay my project and will be there when I can resume my project.

While doing research on Arizona solar energy, I found  there are any number of ways to have solar panels installed on your home, not all are great. I was  concerned about solar projects that were pitched which did not seem financially plausible. However you do solar in Arizona, use this company!

Just had General Solar out to redo my pool solar. My old system was at the end of its useful life and was getting to be a headache to maintain.

Kent and Steve were very patient with me explaining the benefits of their product and what I could expect performance wise from a solar heater for my pool.

They showed up on time and worked diligently to get everything hooked up.

Could not be happier! Highly recommend

I moved in to SUn city after getting a divorce as a senior and wanted to put solar on the roof. I met Cary after speaking to several salesman and decided that Cary had the best price for me. The work was done. A year ago I contacted Cary and got some extra work done installing a mini split that helped even more. I would recommend galaxy solar to anybody because of the professionalism and care.

NRG Solar put in my work order ticket. I am always worried when a contractor comes to do work that I am not paying for (ie: work under warranty), because there's no sales opportunity in it for them. However, the gentleman who came from Harmon was very courteous, helpful, and informative. He made the modifications needed after an electrical surge caused by a lightening strike shorted my telemetry system for my solar. He was so helpful and polite, what a breath of fresh air. I would absolutely recommend Harmon Solar's technicians, and I hope NRG uses them again if I require warranty work.

I was a bit anxious when I began the process of switching to solar power. But as soon as Arizona Energy Pros made contact, I was able to relax and actually enjoyed the process. There guidance and knowledge were just what I needed. Everyone is professional and friendly while maintaining the highest level of service. I highly recommend them for your solar installation!

Matt was awesome and we will definitely be using him in the future! ...Here's our story with him... Our laundry detergent is on a shelf above our water heater and there was a crack in the bottle which leaked detergent down into some of the wires in our water heater which then caused some sparks and a  burnt plastic smell and lastly our hot water went out (not fun for the winter) Not wanting to replace the semi new water heater, we called up a plumber who told us we needed to call an electrician...Then we called an electrician who told us to call a plumber... We didn't know what to do so we decided to give one last try to another electrician and we are SO SO SO glad we did! Matt was very helpful over the phone and gave us some suggestions and options as to how he thinks we could best fix it without it costing us a fortune or without having to get a new heater. He came out as soon as he could and replaced the control panel where the laundry detergent had gotten into and everything was back in working order! I have never been more grateful for hot water! Thanks again Matt!! We are happy to have an electrician we can trust!

We compared a couple of companies and felt we were getting a better deal overall from AZ. Solar Solutions.   They worked tirelessly to install our system and when a problem arose, they were here to fix it quickly.

We have been producing nearly 100% of our energy since April when we became fully operational.   Even on the few cloudy days we have in Arizona, we're generating energy.   So happy to have final made the decision to 'go green'.

So far so good negative electric bill
Had a major snafu when first installed they caused leaks in my roof  however they did eventually fix the leaks after 4 attempts and the district manager actually came out to supervise to make sure everything was done right once and for all ....they compensated us for the drywall /paint repair and thank goodness for Nina Perry who was quick to follow up each time until I got everything resolved

What a great experience! Start to finish (today) SolcarCity stayed in constant contact throughout the entire process, including the activation of our system this morning. What great fun to go outside and watch our electric meter run in reverse!
The sales staff, installers and customer service was wonderful and always available to anwser questions and guide us through the process. If you want to cut your energy cost, substantially, and contribute to energy conservation, SolarCity is the way to go. We give them six stars out of five!!!...pete
