Solar power
From start to finish Boston Solar has shown me quality, sales personal, office help, installers, inspections. It has been a pleasure dealing with these folks. They are always on time, do great work quickly and pick up the area so you don't even know they were there. I would refer them to anyone interested in a good solar system.

Happy with Boston Solar
After much time and research I decided to go with Boston Solar for my solar panels and I’m so glad that I did! They were extremely professional, never pushy. They know they’re product and the benefits of going solar. John, my representative was great. Throughout the entire process I never felt as though I was alone. He was always there to answer any questions and concerns. He even helped me with filing for the tax credit the government was offering. In addition, their work was impeccable. Their customer service is amazing. They made sure I was envolved in every step of the project. If paperwork or information was missing they would call me just to make sure I received the email or simply to ask if I needed any help. After the work was completed we did a walk through and they showed me how everything worked. I would recommend Boston Solar to anyone who is even thinking about going solar. Trust me. You won’t be disappointed.
Response from Boston Solar
Thank you so much Sandra! We sincerely appreciate your thoughtful review of the experience going solar, I will make sure to pass this back along to John, Sana, and the rest of the team that worked on your project!

Boston Solar System Install review
Highly recommend. Great company, they worked with me to explain and answer any of my questions. Also their customer service is great, generally very punctual email replies. John the sales rep I spoke with was awesome, very friendly and informative and patient. Also Sana my point of contact was also fantastic, she was able to answer my questions and even called a couple roofers on my behalf to inquire about roofing warranties with panel installs. The install and electrician crews they had were professional, friendly and did their work very quickly. Had a couple of scheduling issues, once due to weather/day after the super bowl, but installers still finished the job that week. Then second issue was a miscommunication with solar rep for building inspector walk through, needed to be rescheduled. Overall though very happy with the company and so far everything seems to be going how they said it would.
Response from Boston Solar
Andrew, thank you very much for your feedback! We appreciate your patience and understanding regarding the few scheduling hiccups, and are glad that you had a great experience otherwise!

Fantastic Experience
Called everyone I could find and interviewed 5 companies. Only company that actually sent someone to the house to look at roof, attic and electrical panel. Rest of them was view from Google Maps. One even had old picture of house. Ordered special inverter that could except Battery Backup so took a little longer to come in. (no battery, no power during power outage). Installation went well. Cold day however they listened to my suggestion for hiding pipe and made the system look almost seamless on house. Great experience from beginning to end. Mali inside is the best. Ask for her.
Response from Boston Solar
Thank you, we appreciated the opportunity to work with you on this system! We value the input of the homeowners we work with very highly and strive to incorporate this into our installs a much as possible so that the end product is something you can be proud of!

Solar Panel installation by Boston Solar
Excellent company to work with. Sales person explained not only the details of installation and helped to get the system sized for our needs, but also explained all the financial details and helped us to get the loan. Design and installation coordinator was awesome and got the project completed within 70 days. The installers were professional, thorough, tidy, on time, wiring was nicely tucked, cleaned up very nicely everyday, worked with the town inspector, and with Eversource to get the net meter installed. We wholeheartedly recommend Boston Solar.

Excellent company, great work
We are very glad we went with Boston Solar. From start to finish, everything they do is in-house - their own electricians, roofers, inspectors, project managers - and that made us feel assured of the quality we would get. Their approach to assessing the roof was much more technical and thorough than any other company we considered. Anytime we have contacted them, they've been extremely responsive in answering our questions and concerns. They are thorough, communicative, and professional. We highly recommend them- the experience could not have been smoother. (Thank you Bill, Sana, and everyone!)

A pleasurable experience
Boston Solar has been a pleasure to work with. I was impressed with them from start to finish. We had looked into one company before Boston Solar that gave us one option for a solar system. Boston Solar worked differently: We were given at least four options of possible systems with differences in panel output and number of panels. For each option, we were told the electrical output and how much we would get back from state and federal governments, and SRECs. Also, I found Boston Solar’s solar consultant very knowledgeable about the technical details of solar power generation and distribution. Wanting to explore the possibilities some more, their solar consultant generated a few more options on his laptop for us to consider. He also advised us to consider future needs—we were already planning on air conditioning, but he advised us to think also of other possibilities, such as electric cars. So we bought a system that produces quite a lot more than our current use, which I am very pleased about since I’ve decided to get a heat pump installed to handle air conditioning and to lower our winter heating costs. Boston Solar did an excellent job of upgrading our electrical panel (we had a mid-1950s fuse box), installing our panels, getting the necessary permits, and working with Eversource to switch us over to net metering. They also put us in touch with an excellent solar loan company (BlueWave) and told us how to apply for rebates and tax deductions from the state and the federal government. There were more steps involved in getting solar panels than I had imagined, but Boston Solar made the whole process a pleasurable experience. I highly recommend them.

Boston Solar did a great job with our system, from the initial sales call all the way through to activation. The sales rep was more knowledgeable than the reps from two other companies we talked to. The engineers were flexible in handling an unexpected twist during the planning phase. We were assigned a Customer Experience Coordinator who did a fantastic job of communicating with us and coordinating all efforts. The installation team was polite and professional. Our yard was spotless when they left - no construction debris littering the yard. The panels look great - sleek and clean, with no visible cables.
