Recent Solar Panel Installation Company Reviews in Albany
- Plug PVThis review is for the referring sales consultant. Smitty stayed in contact through the whole process. He took time to walk me through the stages of my solar project and answered any questions I had. While I can’t say my solar project was problem free. Smitty stuck with me to ensure all my concerns were addressed. He encouraged me to stand my ground with the contractor, when a problem arose with the roof replacement which was the first phase of the job. Smitty provided excellent customer service. He answered and addressed all my concerns and has remained in contact as the work progressed. Thanks again Smitty
- Plug PVFirst, prior to the work, Thomas Smith, kindly, professionally and efficiently walked us through the process and kept in touch making sure we were totally please. Kept available even afterwards to patiently answer questions. We are pleased
- Plug PVI met Thomas “Smitty” Smith and he is a great representative for SUNco Solar. He explained the products very well however I was a undeceive. But he told me to think about it and if I had any question(s), I just had to call or text him. Even though he did not answer my phone calls at that moment, he returned all my calls as soon as possible. He was able to answered all my questions and make me feel confident of my decision to go ahead and get solar panels. From the time we met to the time I signed the contract, which took about 3 months, I am a very satisfied customer. Smitty was very professional and has a very strong knowledge of the product
- Plug PVIt was a huge leap of faith. First selecting the right company to go with, and then hoping that the installation process was as seamless as our solar consultant, Tom Smith (aka Smitty), made it out to be. Sure enough, it was as promised. Seamless and easy to install. This included dealing with the utility company and also getting the proper tax credit paperwork we needed. If there was ever an issue, Smitty was there to quickly call us back and answer any concerns we had. He was great… as was his team. I refer them to anybody I know who are interested in solar
- PlugPVExcellent! I was contacted by Matt at PlugPV and I’ll admit, I was skeptical at first. My worries were immediately gone after talking with him and his team. I felt comfortable right away and knew my solar panel installation would be done with nothing but care and professionalism. From the consultation to the installation, Matt and the team at PlugPV are top notch
- PlugPVIt was great working with Matt G. He made solar so simple for us, explained everything thoroughly, and answered any questions with ease. So thankful we had Matt to guide us in this process.
- PlugPVMatt was awesome from first time in my home till install of panels , definitely will be doing more business with Matt , by sending referrals his way .
- PlugPVMatthew is one of the most professional people I’ve ever been around or had the chance to work with. I highly recommend using him if you are interested in solar power.
- SumintraSumintra, although a small outfit, did a great job with my relatively large, roof mounted solar system. Quality and customer service definitely come first with this company even when you are located four and half hours from their headquarters. At the end of my project the electrical inspector from the power company was very impressed, and told me that the quality of work performed on my home stands out from the typical solar systems that he normally sees. Clearly, the company co-founder and lead electrician, Anil Babooram, has a passion for solar and takes great pride in the work that he does. Naturally, a small company can get booked up during the busy season, but the quality and service are worth the wait
- RGS EnergyI have always been interested in having solar installed and was very impressed with Real Goods Solar. Len the sales rep was very knowledgeable and took the time to answer each and everyone one of our questions. Jenny the project manager was very polite and always followed up promptly if I left her a message. James"Chris" the project foreman and his crew were extremely friendly, polite and professional. Easily the most professional company I have ever worked with. Excellent customer service top to bottom. The work they did on my house looks great. I'm waiting now on a private inspector and national grid to swap out my meter so it will still be a few weeks before I can get the system turned and running but I'm excited and can't wait. The whole process took several months due to planning, designing the system, waiting on the tax credits from NY and the Feds but they did all the work in getting building permits from the town of glenville so there was very little I needed to do. They kept me updated on how everything was progessing so there were no surprises which I really appreciated. Very happy with the entire experience. Thank you! Also I put $0 in the amount paid as I don't start paying my solar lease until the system is turned on. So far I have not had to pay anything out of pocket

"Working with Matt was a great experience! He showed me how much I could save by going with solar instead of staying with my old utility company (being I had a great roof for solar) and explained how to get money back in tax credits!! Listen to this guy! He breaks it down simply and never makes you feel like you’re asking too many questions. Our meetings were very lower pressure and friendly. He is there to educate, not sell, which I realized is rare after meeting with other representatives. If you have any interest in going solar I would strongly suggest talking to Matt right away!
