    Very very unorganized company. Salespeople do not return your calls as soon as you have paid. The service department does not talk to the concierge department. I've been waiting for a part for 8 months now. That was supposed to be delivered 2 months after I initially called. Service department was dispatched and sent out 1 technician that was not qualified, and then 2 more times the technician had no idea why they were at my residence. Jeff **, from the concierge department, has promised a call back or an email and it has now been about 2 months since I've heard from him. I'm sure this company is good at two things, taking your money and forgetting about their customers. Thanks Eric ** for selling me the system and the entire concierge department for failing me.

    I decided to install solar and after talking to a few companies went with Elevation due to their good reviews. My experience has not matched others. I agreed to install in April, they sent the wrong paperwork to the City of Fort Worth which delayed the install until end of August, then final inspections from the city were mid September. System went live 3rd week in September, 6 months after agreeing to proceed. One week after they were live, one of my panels failed, it took me multiple emails and phone calls to get any support. They eventually sent out a technician who confirmed that the inverter was damaged and needed to be replaced. This was the 2nd week in October.

    As of today 9th December they have still not fixed this broken panel, as three weeks ago after 4 emails, and 4 phone calls they sent a tech out to fix it, but my roof was too steep for one person to fix on their own (Please note they installed the panels and the gradient of the roof was in the all the paperwork). After another week I called them for an update on the repair, they couldn't provide any as they don't have enough technicians in TX (BTW - They are still selling and installing).

    I then received a call that they will fix the panel on 12/12 - This is 10 weeks after I reported the problem and numerous calls and emails. As it is still not fixed, I can't be certain that it will be fixed on 12/12, but I would caution anybody who decided to purchase from Elevation for solar, that if you have a problem it will likely take a long time to fix. Based on my experiences so far, I would not recommend them and would tell people to look elsewhere.

    $50-60 bill now, was originally over $100/month. Some initial delays but work was completed quickly once the equipment was ready so I give Elevation four out of five stars and recommend them to anyone looking for a local company that does their own installs.

    Purchased a 17.5 kW system in December 2019 and the solar arrays were installed very well and the system has been generating exactly as forecasted in our original proposal. We have Hanwha panels with Enphase micro inverters and the system also came with a monitoring application that lets me see everything. I recommend Elevation, quality company.

    LOVE the Curb monitoring app, it’s super cool! It shows me all the power/usage/data/etc. I can even see how much energy my pool pump is using vs the AC unit so that’s fun to play around with. Biggest benefit is my power bill has been cut in half.

    I liked when I used to get monthly email updates on my system’s performance, but everything is now tracked through the app. Still wish I did receive email updates but I understand technology runs the world and more information is being moved online/automated. That’s my only complaint but I would still recommend Elevation Solar for anyone looking to get solar panels installed.

    I signed a contract with them in late March (2022). Panels were installed a couple months later, however after installation, the installer did a final check only find issues with the microinverters. Company policy as he stated was to leave until it was resolved, however he was call off the job by his supervisor. It is now late Sept. (2022) and the issue is still not resolved. They are non-committal with a date for resolution. I have escalated the issue and told a manager will call within 24 hours. I have yet to receive a call. This has happened 3 time thus far. Each time I called, their canned response is "You're at the top of the list." They will not commit to a date for resolution. Find another installer if you value a great customer experience. I do not recommend them.

    We have been very pleased with system and the service as well. Everyone has been very knowledgeable, professional, and very cooperative. We had an issue a few months ago with our SolarEdge inverter, and Elevation made sure to get my system fixed after noticing the inverter went out. Great customer service. We have no complaints, and I would recommend Elevation to anyone looking for solar in Phoenix.

    Reviewed Sept. 15, 2022

    My experience with Elevation has been great for three years. My system has been producing more energy than I needed, so I was selling back my excess energy to the grid for credits. Green Mountain jacked up their rates once already this year and are supposed to increase the rates again before the end of the year. I just got my first actual bill since going solar, a little disappointing that utility companies keep increasing the price for solar customers. All in all, not Elevation’s fault and I’ve been very satisfied with their help over the years.

    I like the feeling that my utility bill will never be outrageously high again. I have a lot of my neighbors complain about the high energy bills they receive each summer, so I like the fact that I’m saving money and paying less than my neighbors. Elevation install crews were great, and I can call in for support whenever I need a question answered.

    Everyone we spoke with at Elevation was very knowledgeable. The only issue we had was trying to understand how the solar tax credit works, and making sure we claim all or as much of the credit as possible. But as a whole, I’m happy with Elevation Solar and will recommend the company.

    In 2019, I had solar installed through Elevation Solar. They did not explain to me how much it would cost to remove/reinstall the solar panels to have my roof done. I was told that they would uninstall/reinstall my solar panels one time at no cost. Additionally, upon installation, they broke a skylight on the house. While they did try to rectify this issue, they just made it worse. After replacing the skylight numerous times, it is still cracked and leaks when it rains. Now I have water damage in the ceiling. I also have to have the roofing company replace the skylight (again). I see no savings having solar and wish I hadn't done it.

    Before winter and more rain, I'm having the roof redone. Elevation is not honoring their promise not to charge me one time for the install/uninstall so the roof work can be done. I called and requested to speak with someone before signing any type of agreement or contract for the solar removal/reinstall. I heard nothing and was sent contracts within a week. They now claim they haven't received my agreement and won't work with the roofing company to schedule a date for service. Overall, my experience has led to more money, more time, and more headaches that I could have imagined.
