excellent work

Working with Boston Solar couldn't have been easier. From the at home consultation to the install. Everyone was very helpful, professional and I was informed of every step along the way. Their administrative team took care of everything and explained the entire process as it progressed. The install team was on time, worked independently and provided me with all the details of the work they were performing. Every step of the process was on time and completed when scheduled.

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you very much Marianne! The process as you described it is exactly what we strive to deliver with every one of our projects! We take care of all the leg work to push the project from start to finish, but also want to make sure that you are in the loop every step of the way with what is happening! Congratulations on completing your project, we look forward to continuing to provide assistance over the life of the system!<br />-Stefan Rosellini, Customer Experience Manager

Highly Recommend Boston Solar!

Boston Solar completed our installation a little over a month ago and we are extremely happy with the entire process. During the sales stage, they had the perfect level of touch, not too pushy but showing clear interest in our project. They were flexible in the design, explained everything in the process, we didn't have to worry about anything! The few times we had questions, Boston Solar responded almost immediately. The installation team was as polite and professional as any that I have ever had. All in the all, the experience was great, we highly recommend Boston Solar.

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you Dana! We have put a lot of thought into our Sales process and believe that an important decision like going solar should not be made based on pressure, but rather on a mutual understanding of the benefits of moving forward! Once we have built this foundation, we continue throughout the project to be transparent in the process so that you can be assured everything is moving forward smoothly! Our crews take great pride in their work and we take great pride in them as a company, so it always a pleasure to hear that the homeowners we install for feel the same! Congratulations on your system activation!<br />-Stefan Rosellini, Customer Experience Manager

Boston Solar Worth your consideration

Boston Solar does not practice hard sell techniques. It lets the product and program sell itself. Its service was outstanding. We closed our deal with one of its sales associates at 11:00 pm on New Year's eve. It scheduled the work for our system and completed the work on time and on budget. After the installation, it was very responsive with follow-up questions. My wife and I highly recommend that you consider Boston Solar for your solar project.

Response from Boston Solar

Many thanks for taking the time to leave this review! It is very important to us that we are providing the same level of service on day 1 of a project as we are months and years later after the system is online! We're very grateful to have had the opportunity to work with you to bring renewable energy and savings to your home!<br />-Stefan Rosellini, Customer Experience Manager

Boston Solar Install

Just had a great experience installing a solar system with Boston Solar. The sales process was through and informative. No high pressure, he just let his full explanation of the savings and incentives do the talking. The actual installation took less than a day. Getting the system turned on takes a while as you have to get various approvals from the town, electric company, etc., however our project coordinator at Boston Solar did all the leg work and an excellent job of following up. Once installed, a Boston Solar tech came back out to show us how the system works and how we can monitor it's performance (straight forward website). All and all, Boston Solar did a great job from start to finish.

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you for detailing your experience Bruce! We believe the benefits of going solar speak for themselves, and feel that taking the time to lay these out in detail rather than pushing for a signed agreement quickly results in a healthier relationship with all homeowners we contract with! As you mentioned, there are a number of steps to complete once the system is installed in order for it to be activated - our project coordinators do all they can to make this a painless process and achieve the activation as soon as possible! Congratulations on your successful project completion, and all the best with the new system!<br />-Stefan Rosellini, Customer Experience Manager

Great Solar Install

Boston Solar was our choice because they offered very competitive pricing and the most information and assistance. We looked at four (4) Solar companies in all and Boston Solar was the best in our opinion. Our project manager kept us informed during all phases of the project and it was completed a month ahead of schedule. Their install team arrived on time and cleaned up after their very professional panel installation. With Boston Solar you have company that understands the solar industry and wants to help you from start to finish.

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you so much Jeff, we truly appreciate the praise! We recognize that there are many different companies offering solar in Massachusetts and have worked very hard to distinguish ourselves in offering a transparent, detail-oriented, customer friendly process from the moment we begin discussions on a project to the system activation and beyond! Proactive communication and clean efficient installations are all parts of what we seek to provide with every system we complete!

Boston Solar delivered as promised. They were courteous from initial meeting to final stage. They kept us informed in a timely way all along and provided thorough documentation. They were flexible is scheduling the installation according to our needs and even started earlier than expected. The quality of the work seems excellent. We have only been up and running for about two months but saw our first zero electric bill last month.

Thank you Mr. Hassinger, and congratulations on your first zero electric bill! It's always very exciting to see the benefits of solar reflected out on the bill, especially for the first time!

Letting the sun charge my Tesla!

I chose Boston Solar because they were more professional and thorough during the quoting process. The overall quotes were not very different between three companies that I had do detailed, onsite quotes. I felt with Boston Solar I was less likely to have unexpected expenses and they would be professional during the installation. And in fact they were. They always showed up on time or early, clearly communicated next steps and did what they said they would, worked with me on location of the hardware, no extra expenses, and politely answered all my "I'm an engineer and I want to know" curiosity questions. Now I prefer to plug my car in during the day instead of at night.

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you Mark, we're glad we could help you bring the power of the sun not only to your roof but also on the road! Electric Vehicles are a great match for solar as you mentioned!

Boston Solar Is The Best

Three years ago we had who was then the top related solar installer in MA quote us using only Google satellite imagery for dimensions. Luckily we did not go with them. This year we contacted Boston Solar who sent out someone who not only got on the roof to measure dimensions and angles but crawled into our attic to determine that the areas we wanted the panels would support them. Turns out some areas the first company would have put panels did not have the proper support joists in place. The entire process with Boston Solar has been excellent, from the initial sales call to installation and the office support. From the completion of installation to activation was 7 weeks which is very good considering one of the weeks was July 4th when nothing happens plus delays by our towns inspection department. Bottom line is I am recommending without reservation anyone who wants to go solar to contact Boston Solar.

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you for sharing your experience! The site audit is a critical part of our process to make sure that we have all the details about the home to put forward a custom design that reflects all aspects of your home! Regarding the 7 week install to activation time, this is actually a bit longer than our usual target, but as you mentioned there can be delays due to holidays or other factors outside our control. Your understanding is much appreciated! Congratulations on successfully completing your project and bringing sustainability and savings to your home!<br />-Stefan Rosellini, Customer Experience Manager

Great experience with Boston Solar

We worked with Boston Solar for our newly installed solar system. We really appreciated the low-key sales process- no pressure to commit and questions clearly answered. We were scheduled for our panel installation but able to move it up earlier- which was great. The process to get the city inspection complete was longer than we expected which unfortunately, Boston Solar has no control on. Depending on where you live, plan additional time for the final inspections to get your system "on" but again, that is out of Boston Solar and the customer's control. Boston Solar was very communicative and kept us up to date each step of the way. Thank you!

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you very much Kristen! We feel strongly that a decision on a solar investment shouldn't feel rushed - when we enter into a contract, we are forming a long term relationship over the life of the system, so it is important to start this on a positive note! Regarding the final inspections, you are correct that this does vary by municipality. Whenever possible, we try to move things along ahead of schedule with the other parts of the project so that even if there are delays outside our control, we are still meeting the overall timeframe for activation! Your feedback and sharing of your experience is much appreciated!<br />-Stefan Rosellini, Customer Experience Manager

Great Company

From the very beginning Boston Solar were the best of the four companies I received quotes from. Their sales representative, Josh, wasn't pushy. He was knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating with appointments and questions. The site survey team was the most thorough. When it came time for the installation, they were very organized and communicative. I had a dedicated person to help coordinate things. She knew me and the job and coordinated with all of the internal people. The installation was clean and the crew were considerate. I highly recommend this company. They are honest and top notch.

Response from Boston Solar

Thank you for sharing your experience, it is much appreciated! Solar is a large investment, and not one that we think should be rushed. It is very important to us that any project we move forward with is built on time taken to reach a mutual understanding - understanding on our end of the needs of each household that we work with, and understanding on the part of the system owner of the full scope of financing and incentives that are available. This is carried forward to our post-sale processes, where as you mentioned we assign a single point of contact to ensure that all communication is consistent and efficient from start to finish.
