Communication Lacking

While I am happy with the overall installation and performance of my rooftop solar system, poor communication and changing of equipment was annoying to say the least as were price increases. I had to reach out over and over again with no responses and nearly canceled the contract in frustration. The panel brand changed twice, the installer was changed, the price increased by 25%. In the end all coordination only improved after I stopped dealing with Palmetto and worked directly with the installer who completed the design as well as completed the installation. The installer did a good job on the installation and followed up quickly to replace a defective microinverter. The equipment installed is high quality and performs well.

Not a good experience

During the quoting phase, communication was responsive and professional. Palmetto was not the cheapest option, but their reputation for reliability and seriousness influenced my decision. Unfortunately, that expectation was not met after signing. Once under contract, communication from Palmetto was largely limited to sending contracts and invoices, which I paid promptly to try to meet the year‑end 2025 deadline for the tax credit. At some point, the installation was handed off to GoodPWR. While GoodPWR handled the installation itself and was generally responsive, Palmetto remained the project owner, yet their assigned project manager was consistently unresponsive. Follow‑ups, action tracking for the multiple failed document submissions for approvals largely fell on me. As a result, the project was not completed in time and slipped into 2026. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. It has now been almost three months since the installation was completed, and there has been no proactive follow‑up, explanation, or closure from Palmetto. Once the system was paid communication essentially stopped. Overall, while the sales experience was strong, the post‑sale execution and project management fell well short of expectations, particularly given the premium positioning of the company.

Install was great

My whole experience was good with the install and the operation of the system itself. I would recommend this service from palmetto to everyone I know. No more electrical bills for me!!

Close second

Salesperson Rob McClinton was great. Very responsive, provided a competitive quote. He worked closely with me and went to bat to customize the contract. Unfortunately, Palmetto's standard contract calls for 90% payment a week _before_ installation. From a customer perspective, that's not good contract management. Once a contractor has received 90% payment, what leverage does a customer have (except legal remedies)?

Thanks for the quote

Outside factors meant that the investment wouldn't pan out at this time.
