    I was referred to ***************************** at Better Earth Solar and I am so glad I was! ***************************** and the folks at Better Earth Solar made the whole process easy and they took care of everything! My only regret is that I didn't call Better Earth Solar sooner! I love not having an electric bill. I shopped around and Better Earth Solar is the BEST! I highly recommend calling them ASAP and go Solar!!

    As soon as the panels were installed, they have shown up 2x unannounced to the house. No call to schedule or to reschedule on a part that needs to get fixed before the city comes out to approve the turn on. I have contacted them 3x on the issue as well as had my sales rep reach out. They said they will follow up and still have not after 2 weeks of waiting.

    ******* with Better Earth Solar has been extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Whenever I had any questions regarding the installation and after the activation he was Quick to respond with answers. If he didnt know something which was rare, he called the appropriate people who would know and either would contact me back or the company would contact me themselves. I have already recommended ******* to many of my friends and family.

    ******************************* ******************* with the site surveyor department was very polite and conducted himself in a professional manner. He was quick, efficient and decisive with his work and answered every question I had. He also provided information on why solar panels are the future.

    ****** was great to work with! Super easy and detailed. I had a clear understanding of not just the cost but the whole process. Within weeks permits were approved and the solar system was installed. The crew was super fast. Can't wait to get it powered up!

    My solar panels were installed on July 14. However, the system is not operational because Better Earth Solar has not made arrangements for the City inspection or the PG&E inspection.

    I recently had solar panels installed by Better Earth. They have been great so far. **** has been on top of everything from the moment he stopped by to talk about the panels, cost, process, etc. until now. Literally every step of the way.

    Better Earth is the worse organization I have worked with in the last 30 years, within the construction industry. Their level of incompetence, inefficiency and inability to complete a project places them in rarified air. I have been waiting over 3 months for Better Earth to fix an electrical panel, that they broke at my house. They have sent 5-6 people, none of which have been able to resolve the issue. They don't seem to care that if water enters the electrical box, someone could be electrocuted and the electrical system could be shorted out. Oh btw... after starting in July of 2022, it is now late October 2022 and even with PG&E acceptance, they have been unable to start my system up and produce any electricity. NEVER use this company unless you are a m********
