Customer Reviews

David Divine

Highly recommend Convert Solar. The rep stayed in contact throughout the process and kept me updated all the way through to our notice to operate green light from the electric company. Very pleased with the whole process. The install guys were very professional and gave the panel install a seamless look and cleaned up the jobsite meticulously. Here's to cutting down the future electric bills!

I'm very pleased with my experience with Convert Solar. They were very knowledgeable, detailed and efficient throughout the entire process. I have had my system for 3 years now and am able to say undoubtedly that it was a sound investment. It is saving me money and I am able to sleep better at night knowing that I have significantly reduced my families carbon footprint at the same time.

Exceptional Experience from Start to Finish — Convert Solar Sets the Standard Convert Solar truly delivers on its promise to provide the highest quality solar systems and customer experience. After speaking with over 12 different solar companies, I confidently chose Convert Solar—and one year later, I can honestly say it was the best decision I made. They offered the best overall value, not just in price, but in quality, warranty, and professionalism. The installation was completed quickly, efficiently, and with impressive attention to detail. The entire team was professional, knowledgeable, and respectful of my home throughout the process. Since installing solar, I have not paid an electric bill in over a year, and based on current electricity rates, my system is projected to pay for itself in approximately six years. On top of that, the Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs) provide additional income, further increasing our savings. Our account representative, Ashley, was outstanding—helpful, informative, and always available to answer questions. She made the process easy to understand and completely stress-free. What truly sets Convert Solar apart is their commitment to quality and long-term value. They use REC panels, backed by an industry-leading 25-year warranty that includes labor, which many companies do not offer. Combine that with Convert Solar’s longest company history in the area, and the peace of mind is unmatched. One year in, we’ve had zero issues, and the system performs exactly as promised—for the best price and with exceptional service. I would highly recommend Convert Solar to anyone considering solar energy. -- Thank you Carrie & Mike

We were connected to Convert through the Richmond Solarize program, and were among the many homeowners racing to install solar before the tax incentives were yanked by the current administration. Despite being COMPLETELY SLAMMED with business, everyone at Convert was conscientious, thorough, and kind. They worked super quickly but didn't cut any corners. They didn't push us to move any faster than we were comfortable with and were super transparent and honest. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Really amazing experience with Convert Solar for our home solar install. Jeremy was a fact forward, low pressure salesman. Dan was a very professional and efficient project manager. Our site engineer was very professional and thorough. Lastly, our install team was absolutely amazing. I’ve never experienced a more professional team of craftsman. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
