Ongoing Support

I recently reached out to Goldin Solar for information on adding battery backup to the solar system they installed for me approximately 4yrs. ago. Michael Hardison took on the task of researching, matching, and recommending an appropriate solution to fit my system. Michael was knowledgeable with product, pairing it with my system, and minor comparisons to other potential solutions. He provided the kind of customer service one would expect, especially having been a previous customer. It makes one feel they made the right choice initially going with the company. I will definitely be a repeat customer and have no problem recommending the company or the solar system. My system has Hanwha Qcells, not what is listed below. The database seems limited.

Goldin came very short from expectations

I originally ordered panels in mid 2021 with installation expected by end of year 2021. After I signed the agreement communication suffered significantly. I constantly requested updates and information that I was not provided with. They would respond only when they wanted and only provide short responses and little to no information from what was requested. On top of the delays, after I signed and was offered an offset of over 95% with the approved panels, engineering came back to reduce the amount of panels, I still disagree with their assessment, asked to speak to engineering and was denied that opportunity. My installation was then delayed until 2022, and it wasn't until May 2022 when they finally completed pre work and permits. Even after they scheduled installation, only to realize they didn't even have the panels they knew they would need for my project; again delayed. During installation. Techs were friendly. Unfortunately they made unnecessary holes and other damages that they failed to properly repair even after multiple requests. Right now there's a current roof water leak causing interior damages that I've reported and hasn't been addressed at all; panels are still pending. Techs also left very dirty working areas, including trash and cigarette butts all around my property exterior; my wife and I had to pick up multiple times after them. Unfortunate, the entire experience has been very rocky, and although they say to be trying, their actions speak much louder than their short and sporadic words. as of today 6/2/2022 we're still waiting on interior wall damage repairs, interior water leak repairs, rook leak repairs, and even final panel installation. All of these were supposed to continue as of 6/1/2022 and have been no call no show twice now, with no response from anyone on the matter.

After requesting several quotes for our solar project we finally decided to move forward with Goldin Solar. Before we moved forward we spoke directly with the owner Daren Goldin who answered our questions and concerns. We came across some issues with inspections but Melissa Bolton from the company made sure to take care of any concerns we had moving forward. She was available when we needed her and is a true asset to the company. She was truly genuine and empathetic to our situation. Some of the issues addressed during inspection were taken care of by their electricians Salko and Edwin who were very knowledgeable and were very quick to resolve what was needed so we could pass inspections and go solar. If you are thinking of going solar you should definitely give Goldin Solar the opporutiny to win your business.

Goldin Solar was very professional and responsive.

Goldin Solar was very professional and responsive. They came out and surveyed the property and provided a proposal. They did the complete job in just a few days and cleaned up well after themselves. The panels have helped to reduce our electric bill and I would highly recommend them.

This was an excellent experience

Love Goldin Solar!! Love Having my System up and running. We got both solar panels and 2 Tesla Powerwalls. We interviewed about 5 other companies before we went with Goldin Solar. The sales team at Goldin was simply the BEST. All my questions were answered and I learned a lot about solar. We then went on to a Project manager who arranged on site evaluations and all sorts of permitting things. This is currently still a new idea for a lot of people, but going green with Goldin Solar is the best thing that we have done! I will recommend them to everyone!

Exceptional

The entire team are very professional and hard workers. Starting with Yesenia our star Project Manager, who did an amazing job updating us with every detail to the guys that installed the panels, came everyday to work with an excelente positive attitude. I still talked about how they were always on time.

AMAZING!!!!!

After speaking directly with the owner of Goldin Solar it was a no brainer for me to sign up. They were very detailed oriented throughout the whole process. After installation there were a couple of configuration changes that needed to be made and they were out there when they said they would be to correct it. THANK YOU GOLDING SOLAR!!

8 months later, nothing installed

I ordered my panels in march 2021, “just in time for hurricane season” according to the sales guy. We are now in november, 8 months later, and Goldin Solar did not install anything. They keep making mistakes and changes on permits, and no one seems to care about the delays. How long did it take to others to get panels installed?

Poor Customer Service

Installation was ok. After installation, they forget about their customers. I have been asking for a review of my account for months because my bills are not as low as expected. I should have plenty of credits built up to use in the hotter months, but I have none. All I am asking is for someone to review my account. The project coordinator has stopped communicating with me and the main office has not returned my calls or emails either. The installation comes with a warranty to fix problems. I am worried that if I do have a serious problem, they will not be responsive. Let's hope that day never comes. In the meantime, I paid a ton of capital for the installation and not getting the return on investment they suggested I would get. I do not recommend this company, purely for lack of customer support after the installation.

After a year of shopping for solar, I’m glad I chose Goldin

While I was waiting for my roof to be repaired after hurricane damage, I decided to research several solar companies and the friendly customer service, knowledgeable staff and overall value was the reason I chose Goldin Solar. My solar power system was activated on May 11th and this graph from the FPL dashboard shows the panels produced more power than my home consumed. Bye bye electricity bill

Few permit hiccups along the way but great service!

Working with Goldin Solar was incredibly easy. They took care of all the hard work and I hardly had to lift a finger. Prices were a bit steep and I am certain there are better prices out there, but not with same level service. Dalton, my project manager, was very helpful along the way and incredibly responsive in keeping me up to date with the process. We did have some hiccups due to permits and delayed inspections, but that was also resolved without my help which takes a huge stress off your shoulders. Haven't received my first bill yet and we are already beginning summer, but so far my dashboard shows great promise. Glad I was able to get this done with Goldin.
