Cascade Solar

Cascade is a small company and do all the work themselves (apparently most companies contract out a lot of the work). They were great to work with; spent a lot of time in person and by email discussing and answering my questions. The sales guy really knows his stuff and answered in great technical detail whatever questions I asked (and I asked a lot). There was a meeting after installation to show us about the equipment and how the app worked. Follow up questions were answered fully. We also felt really comfortable with them.

Highly recommend Cascade Solar. The Cascade reps that came to my home for the initial walkthrough were by far the least sales-pitchy and the most helpful of the three companies we spoke with, and the installation cost was the least expensive by quite a bit. Installation was smooth, even with a few adjustments to the plans along the way. We just had our first whole month with our new system and enjoyed a $10 electric bill. Definitely give Cascade a look if you're pursuing solar for your home!

I recently had my second solar system installed by Cascade Solar, and once again, they delivered an outstanding experience. Just like the first time, the entire process was quick and seamless, from the initial quote to the final net meter installation. Tom's expertise in providing detailed quotes and system designs was invaluable. He's knowledgeable without being pushy and always focuses on providing high-quality equipment at a competitive price. Rachel’s efficiency with all the paperwork—including incentives and permits—was impressive, making the administrative side completely stress-free. The installation team was professional and meticulous. They completed the job cleanly and efficiently, and their clear communication throughout the process was a huge plus. I originally chose Cascade Solar because I wanted to work with a local company that offered a more personalized service, and that's exactly what they provide. The consistent quality of their work and their excellent customer service truly sets them apart. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again or recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier equipment and exceptional service.

Excellent company! We picked them because of their honesty up front and their willingness to be creative. Everyone on the installation crew was knowledgeable and friendly. The city inspector was impressed with the quality of installation. Their follow up customer service goes above and beyond. Our solar production exceeds our expectations. We are thrilled!

Creative, collaborative, responsive and 100% professional crew. Really appreciated the attention to detail and thoughtful approach in designing and installing our new solar array. Fully recommend (both going solar, and going solar with Cascade Solar)!

Cascade Solar recently installed solar panels and a backup battery at my house. They were extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the process and stuck to the timeline they provided. Great service and excellent results. Recommend them without reservation!

We had a great experience with David and the Cascade Solar team. They came recommended by our neighbors who used them and who found their quote to be the most competitive of multiple options. David has been responsive from the initial consultation through installation and checking in to make sure all has been going smoothly. We started producing in December and by mid-May our 18 panels have produced enough to fully offset our electrical usage for the year including charging the EV that I use to commute and go skiing (~20,000 miles/year). David was quick to address any issues that came up during the installation process, and made all of the paperwork for rebates and tax credits easy.

After Tesla (when they were still offering to install Powerwalls in Portland) balked at adding a Powerwall 3 inside my garage due to proximity to my property line, Cascade Solar was willing and able to get it approved and installed in my preferred location! Once the Powerwall 3 was available, they were able to quickly get it installed and up and running! It's been great! I would hire them again!

We looked at three solar vendors to design and install solar panels and Powerwalls. One we considered was Tesla direct. Tesla direct was the least expensive of all vendor proposals, by quite a bit. However, Tesla's local design knowledge (setbacks) wasn't good. The max they would install was an 8kW system, and that was using 4 different roof planes. Cascade was the best value. They designed/installed a 10.5kW system using two planes and installed 3 x Powerwall3s. Great communication, from pre-sales all the way through PTO, and beyond.

Cascade solar was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. After getting expensive quotes from very aggressive, pushy large solar companies I got a recommendation from a friend in an environmental group I work with about Cascade Solar, a small local group. I could not be happier with their work. Tom Crowe worked up the plan for the panels. He is extremely knowledgeable, answering all our questions in great detail. Nicole Nicholls handled all the paperwork for permits and jumped through all the administrative hoops of incentive applications to the Energy trust of Oregon and the Oregon Department of Energy which saved us thousands of dollars. David Nicholls and his crew did a flawless installation. The Crew was very professional and friendly. They did an EXCELLENT job installing our home solar system. The installation was in June. Our PGE bill has been 15 dollars a months since. Communication excellent and timely throughout. I just cannot recommend them more highly

I’m not sure what else you could ask for. Cascade Solar was an absolute pleasure to work with. They answered all my questions, were totally transparent about all the costs, and never pressured me. The installation was super quick and easy, and they even helped me connect with the utility. I wish I had done this sooner!

From first contact to final adjustments, Cascade was responsive, professional, flexible, and transparent. They did not preach or sell; they listened and offered options. Our system is a bit unconventional, but it works for us, and we could not have done it without Cascade.

Cascade Solar is a great Solar company. They were a lot more accommodating for my schedule and slightly more affordable. I needed to reroof my house. Tesla Solar(Solar City) originally installed my system. They had a 3 month wait and cost about $500 more. They did drop and breaking one of the solar panels during reinstall. They replaced it at no charge to me. And reimbursed me for the loss of power generation while they acquired a replacement. System is working without issues.

The Cascade Solar team was great. They helped me design the solar system for my home. The install went smoothly and was done on time. They handled all of the paper work and continue to provide support after the install was complete.

My experience with Cascade Solar has been excellent. From the initial consultation to the final installation, everything exceeded my expectations. As a small Portland solar company, I worked with one person, David, from start to finish. I wasn’t handed off to multiple people through the project's lifespan as can happen with a larger company. From the initial design of the system to the engineering needed to upgrade my roof system, to the various tax incentives available and help with the solar loan, Cascade provided flawless service. They installed the latest and highest quality equipment, did not try to up-sell me on equipment I did not need, and the cost they quoted me is exactly what I paid. David was wonderful and I was very impressed with his professionalism, knowledge, and ability to answer all my questions while communicating all the information important to me. My advice to anyone shopping for a solar company is, don’t be lured in by low finance rates that the larger companies offer because while you may pay less in interest on your loan, you will be paying much more for equipment and installation than you might if you work with a smaller company.

Solar is a BIG purchase, but Cascade Solar made it a transparent, honest one with skill on install, flexibility in scheduling, a competitive price per watt compared to most, and access to a lender specializing in green lending at market or slightly-below market rates. They communicated great throughout and the process is more streamlined with them than two other firms installing for different friends of ours were. Our experience with bidding firms was wildly divergent - from “that big firm” that felt like dealing with a bot, to other mid-tier firms that frankly padded their bids (one firm quoted the same price for final install that we had for CS, but for 60% the array size!). Our Enphase system is performing as advertised and the backup Powerwalls give us a bit more assurance in outages which have become all-too-common in PDX winters. They got us to a reasonable cost per watt installed with high-quality components, took care of the permitting and inspections, and did a final walk-through meeting to test our system performance and make any adjustments needed. If you are considering solar, give these folks a call. There are a lot of shady characters looking to make a mint on folks not doing their due diligence. Cascade Solar is local to PDX and absolutely worth your time to consider!

I recently had Cascade Solar install an 8.6 kW system in Oregon City, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The sales rep was low pressure, making the decision-making process stress-free. Working with Cascade Solar was great, and their pricing was competitive. Communication throughout the entire process was perfect, keeping me informed every step of the way. I highly recommend Cascade Solar for anyone considering solar installation, and I’ll likely be working with them again in the future for a battery installation.
