My recent collaboration with Sun Path Solar on solar panel installation, was truly beyond my expectations. Not only did the team, led by Kristy and Sonja, provide exceptional customer service, but their depth of knowledge and professionalism were also evident throughout the project. They ensured all my questions were answered in full detail, maintaining clear and consistent communication from start to finish. A noteworthy moment was when one of the installers went above and beyond by assisting me with a garage door issue, a gesture of service that really stood out. Additionally, a month after the project completion, when I reached out with a question regarding the Enphase app, Kristy was incredibly helpful in providing the assistance I needed. For anyone considering solar energy solutions, Sun Path Solar comes highly recommended.

Sunpath did an excellent job

We are very pleased with our experience with Sunpath Electric. They did an excellent job of preparing us for the install and then completed the installation in 2 days. We are very pleased with all the people that we had contact with. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Kristy provided me with lots of good information prior to making the decision to get solar.

Excellent Installation, Service at a Competitive Price

In deciding to install solar panels on our home, we invited several bids from local (Washington) solar companies. We additionally spoke with neighbors who have installed solar. We choose Sun Path Electric for serval reasons: 1) The proposed solar panels to be installed have been reviewed by independent 3rd party reviewers, and we learned the proposed panels to be installed were at the top of the industry; 2) neighbor's who used Sun Path only had positive to glowing comments about the company from sale through installation and all follow up questions and support; 3) the cost of installation was best in class (by a significant margin); 4) they answered every question we had and invited us to ask further questions if we had them--the company was open, transparent, and forthright. Having selected Sun Path, the installation was on schedule, efficient and the crew was a professional and a delight to have on site. We have since recommended Sun Path to other neighbors with our full endorsement and without hesitation. Great Company, great people.

Great Product, Installation, and Experience

Sun Path was a pleasure to work with. They use top of the line solar panels and inverters. We were very particular about the location of all equipment. Sun Path worked closely with us to deliver a functional and aesthetically pleasing installation. Great attention to every detail! Highly recommend Sun Path Electric

Can't wait for summer!

In January, we had Sun Path install 33 panels on our south facing roof. Their estimate was accurate and had no hidden add-ons. They were responsive by phone and email and stayed on top of all the permitting, applications, and communications with the bank that carries our solar loan. We also updated our electrical service as part of the job, which was accomplished all in the same three days of work on the roof. Briggs and the on-site electrician worked with us to solve the problems with our quirky pre-existing electrical set-up, answering questions with patience until we were all on the same page about the right path forward. It was worth the wait between when we signed up and when our turn came in the work/install schedule. The work on the roof is clean-looking, secure, and the panels were hooked up and producing by the end of the last day. We're very pleased with the job and can't wait until summer, when the panels will be producing at full blast with the long days of sun.

Excellent Team

Sun Path was an excellent team to work with! Sun Path had the most competitive offer when searching, and a neighbor highly recommended them. I appreciate their mission. Everyone was professional and courteous to work with. There was a change in the supply laws, and they upgraded my system. There was a change in the schedule, and they installed my system early! Highly recommended!

Great experience!

We have nothing but good things to say about Sun Path. Staff was incredibly professional, timely, and informative. From the initial process they were never pushy in trying to get us to install a system in our home. The group of installers that came to our home installed the system in 2 days. They worked diligently and were very professional. We loved working with Sun Path Electric and would do it all over again.

I love my new system

I had a great experience working with Sun Path. They shared a proposal right away and happily explained the details and answered my questions. They were sensitive to ensuring a beautiful installation by running conduit where it was minimally visible. I talked with a number of other companies and they stood out from a price and system design point of view, and were able to adjust the system a bit to accommodate my requests. I'd be glad to work with them again if had to install another system.

Great! Super Quick, Easy, and Affordable

Sun Path just finished an install for us. They were great during the sales cycle, helping talk through questions and concerns (drilling in to a flat roof), the price was reasonable, and they were great throughout the install process. The install went fast too, only a few days of total install time. Checking my production each day is my new obsession. Thanks Sun Path!

Excellent experience

Sun Path did an outstanding job for us--very professional and courteous--and completed high quality work installing 29 panels. They did the most thorough assessment to optimize solar collection of any of our bidders and we are pleased we chose Sun Path. There were a couple of pandemic related delays, but very brief and they kept us well appraised of any changes. We also appreciate their advocacy work with Solar Mamas. All in all a big win.

Proud new solar owners!

Sun Path Electric was great to work with from start to finish. They were super flexible and responsive throughout, and incredibly willing to work with our setup, limitations, and questions. Their work was stellar, and everything's been working for the past few weeks without a hitch (it's super fun tracking our electricity generation and usage through our phone apps). They went above and beyond as well to help us integrate our new solar panels and battery with our smart SPAN panel, and we'll definitely be returning to Sun Path if we decide to upgrade to even more panels or batteries in the future.

Great installer start to finish

Sun Path installed a 9.5kW system on our 1960's Western Washington split level. From the start of the progress, they communicated frequently and offered genuine professional and honest guidance from choosing the layout to the inspections and service changes. The installation team was efficient and professional and showed an obvious pride in the work they did to ensure that it far exceeded what was necessary.

Stellar!

I chose Sun Path Electric because I immediately trusted their approach and plan. Every person I dealt with was knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with. The communication throughout was excellent; they were consistent and patient. I was particularly impressed with how sensitive and open they were to my desires when planning the placement of the electrical components. It was a real pleasure working with this company!

Solar Expertise

From the start we felt Sun Path Electric understood our needs and was very prompt and professional in their presentation and answering any subsequent questions about our project. We found their lead electrician and installation crew highly competent and professional. They all understood the system, could answer all our questions and completed the project right on time. I also felt everyone in the crew was passionate & dedicated to Sun Path and solar technology. Our system is producing exactly how they said it would perform and am very happy we went with Sun Path Electric.

Great experience

My wife and I got proposals from 4 different local companies, one of which was way overpriced and poor transparency with information, one that was ok, and the other two were quite competitive. We chose Sun Path based on our interactions and with how transparent they were with system details as well as a very competitive price. Communication was clear and the schedule/installation dates were accurate. The lead electrician answered all of my pre-work questions and gave a walk through of the system. City inspection was timed the next business day from work completion and we were up and running that day generating power. Great documentation and follow through even after the system was completed. Will highly recommend.

Reasonably priced, professional, quality install

I chose them initially because someone I trust recommended them and after receiving five bids they were most competitive and I felt the most genuine. We had the system installed and the inspector who came out commented on what a great job they did. It was perfect. We unexpectedly sold that home and bought a new one. We used Sun Path Electric a second time. Why fix what isn't broken? Peace of mind is worth everything.

Very glad we chose Sun Path Electric to install our solar system

We couldn't be more happy with our solar installation by Sun Path Electric. They were very responsive, worked with us to help us pick the best, affordable, solution for our home. Their honesty, knowledge, and experience was very reassuring. The installation was very quick. They took care of everything, and suggested multiple options available for financing. Never once did we feel like we were being up sold, or being pushed to pick a product to make a sale. We could not recommend Sun Path Electric more!

Very professional with a personal touch

Sun Path was our solar installer and we couldn't be happier with their work. We had multiple bids and felt most comfortable with Sun Path do to the personal touch their team brings. Their main installer, Briggs, was very communicative during the install and the job was complete on time even with some quirks of our house. We were also wanting to install a Level 2 Car charger and the other solar installers said our panel wouldn't support and would need to be upgraded. Briggs took the time to pop off the cover and look at what we had going on and ultimately determined what we had was workable and ended up installing the outlet with no issues. We've been remodeling our 1950s house for a few years and Sun Path has been the best company we have worked with on any project!

I highly recommend Sun Path Electric!

Sun Path Electric has been amazing to work with. Kristy and Briggs are smart and driven to see solar succeed in the Northwest. They explained the system and options very clearly, followed up quickly, and hit their schedule and budget. To date, the results have been unbelievable in terms of utility offset. My bills, even in the winter and spring, are down 50-70%. Why everyone with the means and a strong orientation isn't putting in solar is beyond me. The payback cycles, even with our weather patterns, are very strong and the planet needs the assist! Thank you Sun Path!

Affordable, Reliable, High Quality

Sun Path Electric did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them. They have very competitive pricing. They walked me through all the incentives and paperwork from the loan to incentives. They finished faster than anticipated. They genuinely care about the work they do and they're honest, reliable, trustworthy. The inspector commented on the high quality workmanship. I had no idea that solar could perform this well or be this profitable in such a rainy area. Had I known I'd have done this a long time ago.

Highly Experienced and Reliable, Best Prices, and Great to With

We are totally delighted with our experience with Sun Path Electric. They were highly responsive to our request for a bid but never pressured us to buy before we were ready. Sun Path is a young company, so before becoming one of their first customers, I checked references. The references confirmed that owner Briggs Nieman has many years of experience doing solar installations as well conventional electrical work. One architect called Briggs, his "go-to guy for anything solar." Sun Path Electric is in the solar business for all the right reasons, and their integrity and commitment to building a sustainable future for our communities is evident in how they do business. They've earned my highest recommendation.

Sun Path is AWESOME

tl;dr: Look no further, Sun Path Electric is THE company you want to hire for your solar project. Okay, still reading? Good. So, we've owned our home for 15+ years and in that time we've completely remodeled our kitchen, basement, 2 bathrooms, updated all of the electrical and all of the plumbing. So, yeah, we've hired many different companies and, beyond any doubt, working with Sun Path Electric was by fart the best experience we've had. In fact, everything went so smoothly and perfectly. Why? Sun Path Electric took to the time to educate us, answer all of our questions, and - this is a big one for us - very clearly communicated the project costs and timeline. Unlike so many other contractors we've worked with, Sun Path Electric never left us in the dark wondering if they were going to show up today and when the project was going to be completed. In fact, Sun Path Electric always let us know what was going on in the schedule and, yes, the project was completed ahead of schedule and without any cost overruns. Since the installation, Sun Path Electric has been there for us, answering our questions always returning our calls. Seriously, hire Sun Path Electric.
