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

How does Revco Solar Engineering 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 Revco Solar Engineering 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.

Revco Solar Engineering reviews: what customers say

An independent synthesis of published customer feedback across Google and Yelp, updated September 28, 2026. Green marks praise, amber mixed experiences, red complaints.

Sales & proposal integrity

Sales Integrity7.2/10

Reviewers generally describe Revco as clear and straightforward during sales conversations, with many saying the team explained the work, provided options, and avoided pressure. A small number of complaints mention broken expectations or being misled, but those comments are less common than the positive feedback.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Clear explanations. Several reviewers say the team took time to explain what needed to be done and walked through the options in a way that felt understandable. Representative review excerpt: "He gave us an estimate and explained what needed to be done."

Honest, transparent approach. Some customers describe the business as honest and transparent about the work and warranty, which supports the stronger score in this category. Representative review excerpt: "Revco have always maintained their standards of honesty and complete transparency regarding their work and warranty."

Isolated trust complaints. A smaller set of reviewers report concerns about contract expectations, being told one thing and experiencing another, or feeling that accountability was lacking. Representative review excerpt: "So my reasoning for not recommending is break in contract, being lied to, rude customer service by Tiffany, not holding themselves accountable and wasting our time."

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency5.6/10

Feedback on pricing and financing is mixed. Some reviewers say costs were reasonable and well explained, while others report surprise charges, warranty-related fees, and concerns about service pricing or billing expectations.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Fee and billing complaints. Other reviewers describe disagreement with service charges, warranty-related fees, or repair pricing that they felt was too high. Representative review excerpt: "We called them for service and they charged us $249 dollars and told us we no longer have a warranty."

Reasonable pricing in some jobs. Positive reviews say repairs were completed at a reasonable cost and that the final work came in below expectations for at least some customers. Representative review excerpt: "He had the repair done in minutes at a reasonable price."

Helpful cost explanations. Some customers report that technicians explained the options and costs clearly, including the tradeoffs between repair choices. Representative review excerpt: "Morgan, the Revco technician assigned to my case, was extremely helpful in explaining the problem and laying out the options with pros and cons for each."

Communication & coordination

Communication5.8/10

Communication gets a mixed response. Many reviewers describe helpful technicians and clear explanations, but a significant group reports difficulty reaching the company, limited follow-up, or delays in getting responses after issues came up.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Helpful on-site communication. Several reviewers say technicians explained problems clearly and laid out options in a way that made the service visit easier to understand. Representative review excerpt: "Morgan, the Revco technician assigned to my case, was extremely helpful in explaining the problem and laying out the options with pros and cons for each."

Professional, no-pressure interactions. Some customers also say staff pointed out issues without being pushy, which suggests good in-person coordination on at least part of the work. Representative review excerpt: "In addition, he also pointed out two items that needed attention, but was not pushy, no hard selling tactics."

Follow-up and contact problems. Complaint reviews describe slow or absent responses by phone and email, with some customers saying warranty or service contacts did not return messages. Representative review excerpt: "I also recently informed them via email (because you can't contact them by phone), that I have a roof leak near the solar panels and they never responded."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability5.4/10

Timeline performance is one of the weaker areas in the review set. While some customers say crews arrived on time and work moved quickly, others report rescheduled appointments, no-shows, and delays that made it hard to count on the schedule.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

On-time service in some reviews. A number of reviewers say the crew arrived on time and completed the installation or service as scheduled. Representative review excerpt: "The crew was here right on time and installed everything perfectly."

Fast scheduling when it works. Some customers say they were able to get appointments set close together, which reduced the wait for the actual work. Representative review excerpt: "Amy gave me an appointment to get a quote and another one for the actual work a week apart so I wouldn't have to wait a long time to get..."

Missed appointments and rescheduling. Other reviewers report repeated no-shows or appointments being moved after they had already planned around the visit. Representative review excerpt: "They have scheduled at least 6 appointments with me and give me a 4 hour window to sit and wait and nobody shows up."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship7.5/10

Workmanship and site care are generally rated well. Reviewers often describe professional crews, careful cleanup, and solid repairs or installations, though a smaller set of comments raises concerns about leaks, damaged roofing materials, or follow-up fixes.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Professional, clean installations. Many reviewers say the crew worked hard, cleaned up after themselves, and completed the job in a professional manner. Representative review excerpt: "The guys came worked their butts off and did a great job cleaned up after themselves."

Careful repair work. Some customers report that repairs were explained clearly and handled with attention to the system and its maintenance needs. Representative review excerpt: "The repairs to my pool solar and panels was performed professionally and each item was explained regarding the necessity for maintenance."

Leak and roof-damage complaints. A smaller but notable set of reviews describes leaks, roof damage, or installation issues that required additional attention. Representative review excerpt: "they negligently installed solar panels on my roof that caused leaks in my roof and after I notified them to fix it, they never showed up ever again after destroying..."

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support7.2/10

Post-install support is generally viewed positively, especially when it comes to repairs, tune-ups, and keeping systems running. Even so, some reviewers report warranty disputes, recurring component issues, or difficulty getting service after the initial install.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Effective repairs and tune-ups. Several reviewers say technicians helped restore system function, checked components, and explained how to keep the system running properly. Representative review excerpt: "Our service representative, Jose, did an amazing job of explaining how we could make our system run properly."

Good follow-through on fixes. Some customers report that repairs were completed carefully and that follow-up checks found no remaining leaks or problems. Representative review excerpt: "He then checked the connections on the other nine solar panels, and tested the system to make sure there no more leaks."

Warranty and service concerns. Complaint reviews describe recurring equipment problems, disputed warranty coverage, or trouble getting post-install service and support. Representative review excerpt: "We called them for service and they charged us $249 dollars and told us we no longer have a warranty."

Bottom line: REVCO SOLAR ENGINEERING’s review profile is strongest on workmanship, sales clarity, and general post-install repair quality, while communication, timeline reliability, and pricing transparency are more uneven. Reviewers often praise professional crews and clear explanations, but they also describe occasional delays, hard-to-reach support, and disputes over fees or warranty handling.

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.
