#269 of 678 scored in California by Solar.com Installer Score

How does Ge Builders compare where you live? Rankings are local; an installer that leads one city can trail in the next. See how they rank in your city →

Why this differs from star ratings: most five-star reviews say “great company” and stop, and star averages reward that. These category scores only count reviews with concrete evidence, weighted by recency and the reviewer’s track record. A company can hold a strong star average while specific categories score lower; that gap is usually where the real story is. Categories with more complaints than praise are the questions worth asking any bidder, not necessarily dealbreakers.

Where Ge Builders builds

County-by-county activity from CPUC records through May 2026.

What this data covers: *Counts on this page, including the totals up top, come from investor-owned-utility interconnection records (SCE, SDG&E, PG&E). Work in municipal-utility territory, such as LADWP or city utilities, and outside California does not appear here, so this company's true totals are higher than shown. Unlike the county rankings, this profile also shows counties below the 250-install ranking floor.

Sales & proposal integrity

Sales Integrity7.3/10

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency6.9/10

Reviewers generally report that pricing and financing were explained clearly, including different payment paths and other cost-related details.

The reviews in this category are uniformly positive, so the main pattern is responsiveness and active coordination from start to finish.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Responsive from the start. Reviewers say the company responded quickly, sometimes when other outreach had gone unanswered, and helped homeowners move ahead without long delays in communication. Representative review excerpt: "Here's why: After contacting four local Solar Companies, Green Energy Services was the only company to respond in a timely manner, and I'm thankful they did."

Clear updates throughout. Reviewers also report being kept informed at each stage, with team members explaining the process and maintaining steady communication. Representative review excerpt: "Both Emily and Eddie took the time to explain every detail of the process clearly, keeping me fully informed and updated at every stage."

Practical problem-solving. Several reviews describe the team as quick to find workable solutions and coordinate next steps without unnecessary back-and-forth. Representative review excerpt: "Being a smaller company means there isn't a lot of corporate bureaucracy, allowing them to respond quickly and find solutions that work for homeowners."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability7.3/10

Reviewers describe a generally reliable timeline, including punctual crews, efficient installations, and smooth movement through activation. The available reviews are all positive in this category, so complaint patterns are not prominent in the analyzed set.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

On-time execution. Reviewers say technicians arrived on time and completed work in a timely manner, which contributed to a smoother project experience. Representative review excerpt: "Technicians arrive on time and do a great job in a timely manner."

Smooth permitting and activation. Some reviewers report that the process moved from installation through utility approval quickly and without much stress.

Fast approval example. One review describes installation beginning on January 11 and approval from PG&E arriving on January 19, reflecting an efficient timeline in that case. Representative review excerpt: "We started install on January 11th and we had our approval from PGE on January 19th."

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support7.0/10

Reviewers describe dependable post-install support, including help with inverter issues, warranty coordination, and general follow-up questions. The evidence set is fully positive here, so the main pattern is service after activation rather than any documented recurring complaint.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Warranty help after install. Reviewers report that the company helped pursue warranty-related resolution when inverter issues came up after installation. Representative review excerpt: "They went overboard haggling on my behalf getting the Inverter Company to honor the warranty on the defunked inverter."

Post-install issue support. Some reviewers say the team stepped in to help with problems even when the issue was outside the original portion of the system they sold. Representative review excerpt: "The equipment has performed flawlessly, and we asked her to help us with an issue we were having on the portion of our system her team did NOT sell or..."

System satisfaction. Reviewers also mention being satisfied with how the system performed after turn-on and describe follow-up support as accessible. Representative review excerpt: "Very satisfied with our system!"

Bottom line: GE BUILDERS’ review profile is broadly positive across all six categories, with especially strong marks for communication, workmanship, and project coordination.

Important context: this chart shows investor-owned-utility records only. Companies that shift work toward municipal-utility territory (LADWP and city power departments) or other states will show declining bars here even while building steadily elsewhere, and 2025-26 records also lag real installation dates. Treat this as a partial window, not the company's full trajectory.

How we built this data

Methodology: Counts are residential PV interconnections in investor-owned-utility territory (PG&E, SCE, SDG&E) per CPUC Rule 21 public records through May 2026. Postal and name variants are merged. Municipal utility territory such as LADWP, Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, Anaheim, and Riverside Public Utilities is not included in those CPUC counts. Counts show recorded installations, not quality ratings. Reported costs are self-reported on owned-system interconnections. No installer can pay for placement.

Who we are: Solar.com is a solar marketplace — we connect homeowners with installers and earn a fee when projects move forward. These rankings and scores are computed from public installation records and published customer reviews. No installer can pay for placement, and no installer — including those we work with — can pay to change a score.
