STEER CLEAR AT ALL COSTS! Cancelled our install after 2 months of back and forth for reasons that should have been picked up from the VERY beginning before the contract was signed. The location of the meter and electrical panel are in a challenging spot on our house that ultimately would require the meter to be moved, and I had asked on our very first day during the consultation BEFORE we signed anything if it would be a problem and their engineers and regional manager James confirmed it would meet code and wouldn’t be an issue before we signed the contract. Two months later, and a new HVAC and roof later, we're told that they are canceling our project because they aren't willing to take on moving the meter and don't want to deal with the project anymore. I asked about us covering the cost to move the meter with a separate electrical company first, and they said that they would not work with us even if we did that. I cannot believe a company of this size could not have foreseen this issue or resolved it issue, especially since I pointed it out on day one. All in all, there was poor communication throughout their team from day one and they completely wasted our time. They have no empathy and are not willing to work through any hiccups along the way. So if you do decide to waste your money with Freedom Solar, be prepared with an absolutely perfect, up to date for the current year, electrical system or they will back out after months of dragging their feet. They were happy to cancel the contract and there is absolutely no recourse for them backing out. They wasted our time and cost us thousands in other upgrades at their recommendation and a hit to our credit for the loan that ultimately will go unused. I implore you, look elsewhere if you're trying to install solar and you'll be much happier. Don't give this company a cent of your money or a second of your time and you'll be much happier.

Hi Alex, We’re truly sorry to hear how disappointing and frustrating this experience was for you. We understand the time, effort, and investment you put into preparing for this project, and we know how upsetting it must have been to have it canceled after all that. While there are some site conditions that fall outside of what we’re able to support, we genuinely regret that this wasn’t identified earlier in the process. Your feedback is important, and we’ll be using it to help improve how we communicate and evaluate projects moving forward.
