Sunshine Renewable Solutions

Sunshine Renewable Services did an excellent job designing and installing our solar electricity system, and at a great price. The system output per unit cost was almost 2X better than a quote we received from another company. Our system consists of 48 panels and 2 batteries for full house backup. It has performed exceptionally well in the two years that we have owned it. Our area has frequent power outages, and now we don't have to worry about this anymore. Our electricity bill has also been reduced by ~80%. We love our system! It gives us peace of mind and a reasonable return on investment.

Well worth it

I had solar panels installed by Sunshine Renewable Solutions almost 3 years ago. They did a great job, were on time with their work throughout the process and were very easy to communicate with, even after the installation. In my experience it was very well worth it. I live in a neighborhood in Houston with a lot of very large oak trees and was doubtful about the benefits. SRS worked with me to get the best number and location of solar panels on my roof. They also clearly used high quality equipment and workmanship because I have had no concerns or problem since. I highly recommend this company.

Torturous process to add a backup battery

Everything on our project took way longer than expected, and then when they were done there were things that didn't work correctly. Plan design - 2 months, Permitting - 2 months. Permitting would have been faster if I had known I needed to sign things (multiple times). That started the "90 day" expected completion. Original install was the fastest thing - less than 2 months. But then there was product failure after product failure. I sort of have to trust them that 4 batteries and 3 inverters were all faulty (manufacturer did replace them after extensive trouble shooting) - but that bad string of luck really could have been install protocols too. The second star was earned just by the fact that the team eventually pulled it all together and got us the product that we had paid for. It took a full 12 months - easily 6 months late. Management didn't even consider a reduction in price for all of the delays and inconvenience to me the customer. What should have been 2 days for install/testing ended up being 20 visits or more.

We installed our solar panels in August 2024. The installers and techs were very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. It took a few days to do the installation. Since then we notice a slight difference in our usage. We don’t have a battery installed yet but plan to. Overall a great experience and look forward to working with Sunshine again in the near future.

Had a great experience installing solar on our home. The staff was easy to work with, communicated the steps, and did all the leg work. The installation team was absolutely delightful! The team lead explained exactly what was happening and the team was kind and respectful. Our project manager was wonderful! as someone who does project management for a living, I was impressed with their organization. The system is working great! We had a new roof prior to installation and haven't had any problems. Our August bill was historically around $750 and this year it was $140.

New Solar Installation

I dealt with several members of the Sunshine team during my solar installation (solar panels plus Powerwalls) and every single person displayed very good knowledge, excellent service, courtesy and efficiency. I would definitely recommend Sunshine to anyone considering solar installation.

Three months and I am still waiting for panels after paying 25%

No one will say when the promised system will be installed. It has been three months and no indication of interest in getting the 15 panels and batteries on my roof.

Solar Panel Maintenance

SRS Service Dept. was phenomenal!! They came in and repaired solar panels they did not install. I bought my panels from a company that had gone out of business, and SRS was willing to repair them. My solar panels were no longer communicating with my home or app. The representative who supported me on the phone was very professional, and worked quickly to get a technician to me. When Ulises arrived, he was professional, quick, and highly knowledgeable. He explained to me everything that was going on, and corrected the problem. Thanks to Sunshine Renewable Solutions, I am back online saving money! I highly recommend their maintenance service even if you do not have panels with them. Peace of mind is Priceless!!

From the start you really can tell that Sunshine Renewable Solutions is different. They truly care. I was hit by so many "Solar is Free" and "The Government Pays 4 Solar" ads that I had to look more into solar. The first solar installation companies were very pushy and tried to get me to sign right away BUT I did my due diligence. That is when I found Sunshine as one of the highest rated companies online. I was really impressed that they had a 5 star rating with over 100 reviews AND they are local. Was a Win Win.

Quality Experience

The team at Sunshine was extremely helpful and professional starting with our energy consultant/designer engineer Shannon Munden. We did a lot of shopping around and no one compared with our experience with Sunshine. Most of the companies were really “sales-y” and couldn’t answer our technical questions. Shannon has tons of solar experience and actually has a system on his roof so he was able to really understand and address our questions and concerns. It definitely took longer than we wanted but we couldn’t be happier with our system and the team at ☀️ Sunshine.

Integrity

If you're looking for a company you can trust look no further than Sunshine Renewable. We ran into a few snags in permitting and initial install but everything was made right and promises were delivered on. If they say they will take care of something, you can trust it will get done.

Good install, too many missed dates

Sunshine installed my solar panels 12/14/22. I signed the contract 7/31/22, so it took 4.5 months from deposit to install. I was not going to leave a review, but the owner asked me to and he said to be honest. Pros: Installers were nice, quality seems good. Sales guy was nice, great presentation. Cons: Project Manager missed every date they committed to. Made up excuses or just didn't show up. Went over the original timeline. No after installation instructions or help setting up. Example 1: Project Manager said the reason we had gone past 90 days without hearing anything was a change in permit requirements that rejected their submission. This was sent to me in email. I called the city permit office and there were no changes, the PM had simply never submitted them. The Frisco permit office has a 24 hour turnaround time. Example 2: Some back and forth and I then called to cancel our order to get a response from them and sales guy put me in touch with the owner. We had an install date set up for that week. The installers did not show up. I contacted the project manager and he said he doesn't micro manage his team and he was unaware where they were. This was sent to me in a text. I had high hopes for them based on other reviews, so I hope you have better luck.

Sunshine recently finished our solar installation and we couldn’t be happier! The whole team was a pleasure to work with. They handled all of the red tape that comes along with permissions, inspections, and the guidelines that my utility provider required for grid connection. They even handled dealing with me! I turned out to be a little (ok, a lot) more picky than I was anticipating, but they kept working with me as my understanding evolved and I narrowed down what it was that I really wanted. There was never even a hint of sales pressure on their side. It was truly a process of understanding what it was that I wanted to achieve and turning that into thoughts on how to get there. The installation went smoothly and everyone involved did great work. Most importantly of all, the system has performed great! So, what are you waiting for… give them a call!

Lack of Support

Received very prompt and professional service prior to and during installation. Installation was completed within two days but that is where everything seemed to stop. Every step of the activation of the panels required that we instigate a series of phone calls to keep the project moving forward as there seemed to be little to no communication after the panels were installed. Once operational, we were advised by multiple members of Sunshine Renewable to go with Rhythm Energy as they provided the best buyback in our area. A few months in and our electrical bills are almost double what they were before we started this process in addition to the cost of the panels themselves. We have also been informed that our panels are underperforming and not providing anywhere near what was quoted and as such will most likely not see any surplus energy produced meaning little to no buyback credit. We can give top stars for Sales Process, Price and Schedule but until our panels produce something meaningful I would have to rate poorly for Installation Quality adn After Sales Support has been nonexistant.

solar panel installation

The guys showed up on time and installed the solar panels on my roof in Dallas. The job only took about 2 days and they were polite and cleaned up after the job was done. I would recommend this company to my family and friends.

Professional, courteous, helpful!

Sunshine Renewable Solutions is who I recommend for all your solar needs. The entire team goes above and beyond for such tasks as: Knowledge, skills, keeping you updates, and very timely.

Good experience

Good experience. Got panels installed at the competitive price. Least aggressive salesman, no hassling or hassling. A little concerned about lack of physical store but they've been available when i need something from then

Very professionals and the installation experienced was great

The reviews and ratings I saw. The only ones that provided a full copy of their contract for me to review before I made my decision. The best cost for the system.

Amarillo Texas Project

Sunshine Renewable Solutions installed our Solar system in December 2020. We are up and running and happy so far. Everybody that we dealt with was very professional. We would recommend them.

Excellent Experience: Highly Recommended

Excellent experience from beginning to end. Sales experience was informative, low pressure, and respectful. They respected my bid process and made a very competitive proposal. I opted for a Black on Black solar system for a cleaner appearance on my roof. They made several alterations to the system in design and installation to give us a very pure black on black look. The installation team worked very hard on hot Texas mid summer days to install the system. I am very happy with our decision to go with Sunshine Renewable Solutions.

Great and Speedy Service!

We are setting sail for the islands in a week and Jeff dropped everything To get us the cable we needed to complete our installation. We couldn't have finished without his expert assistance. Thanks Jeff! -The Crew of S/V Verano

Repair to System not Producing

For anyone that wants a polite and quick solution to their system problems, this is the company to get it done. I had problems finding an expert on my system and after two weeks of calling many companies, this firm came to my rescue. Not only did they do a great job of getting everything done, the individual, Sid Chandrashekar, came to Georgetown, TX on his weekend trip, and took the time to visit my home. Very polite and friendly. I could have not ask for a better experience. Highly recommend these people for your solar needs.

Do it and do it with Sunshine

If you're looking to go solar and want to work with a great, local team, choose Sunshine Renewable. I'm very pleased with everything about my 11.22 kwh system. Scott, Sid and Cody had it spec'd out, priced, installed and up and running with PTO in about 5 weeks. This is extra fast since I'm outside city limits and did not require many permits. Do it for you. Do it for your kids (seriously, mine are really proud). Do it for the planet. Do it with Sunshine. If my review helps you chose Sunshine Renewable, please give them my referral code 'SUN STYLE' and tell them Lynn sent you. It could even save you a few bucks!!

Friendly and customer oriented company

When business runs as it is suppose to, we don't have much to say other than ... GREAT JOB, GREAT TEAM. I expected the system to be functional within a certain time frame and it was. I expected the system to run nice and smooth, and it does. Few hiccups were efficiently addressed. Hiccups are part of the job especially when dealing with a tremendous amount of paperwork (fully out of their control), field activities and difficult clients (I do consider myself rather demanding). To conclude - Sunshine Renewable Solutions is not only a Solar solution company - now, they are my friends. -Horatiu Corbeanu, Katy, TX.

Excellent Solar Company

Amazing fast installations and no hassle pricing unlike some competitors. Special thanks to Cody and his team on the install also Thomas for the education on solar and the sell. Highly recommend and very impressed with this young local growing company.

Great People to Work with, Great Product, Great Service

I had a 10.56 kv system consisting of 32 Panasonic solar panels put in by Sunshine Renewable Solutions. Installation was completed in the last week of September. I just got my first full month power bill (for October) and it was a $87.84 cent credit. In the past I normally consumed about 900-1000 kwh a month. This system will save me a lot of money. The company was very responsive, very nice people to work with , and offered a wide range of products

Best Price/Product, Warranty, Customer Service and Installation

I highly recommend Sunshine Renewable for your solar panel installation. The entire project from start to finish was easy. They listened to my needs and provided the best product that matched my criteria. Their customer service and professionalism are the best in the industry that I have come across as is their devotion to improving our planet! Thank you from our family to yours.

Great service on an older PV system

After being ignored by several other solar installers, Sunshine owner Jeff promptly came out and gave me a very reasonable estimate for replacing the microinverters in my existing photovoltaic system. Despite their busy schedule, and despite having to source some unusual hardware, Sunshine were able to squeeze in my small job in a reasonable time. It's great to have the system acting like new again. I appreciate the attention and care from Jeff and project manager Cody, and I will definitely call them again if I need anything! Highly recommended!

Best company for solar!!

By far the best choice for solar panels and installation!!!! We live in a very rural place with lots of animals and kids and these guys were such fun!! Not only did they do an excellent and professional job installing but we had a blast having them around. Going to miss y’all!!
