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

How does Rooftech Energy 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 Rooftech Energy 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.

Rooftech Energy reviews: what customers say

An independent synthesis of published customer feedback across Google and Yelp, updated September 23, 2026. Green marks praise, amber mixed experiences, red complaints.

Sales & proposal integrity

Sales Integrity7.3/10

Reviewers mostly describe clear, reassuring sales conversations and proposals that helped set expectations. The main caution is that a small number of reviews mention delays and missed expectations during the sales-to-start process.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Clear, reassuring proposals. Reviewers commonly say the company explained scope, timing, and cost in a way that made them comfortable moving forward. Several describe the process as honest and pressure-free. Representative review excerpt: "He explained it wouldn't take too long and the cost would be reasonable, which made me comfortable moving forward."

Helpful roof assessment before install. Some reviewers mention proactive roof checks and candid feedback before work began, including cases where the company inspected the roof before solar installation or identified needed roof work. Representative review excerpt: "This guy came out last minute to inspect my roof before the solar was installed."

Delay-related complaint. A smaller number of reviews say the work was not completed on time and that explanations for delays were not satisfactory. Representative review excerpt: "They did not complete the work on time and kept giving excuses for the delays."

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency7.0/10

Reviewers generally describe pricing and payment discussions as straightforward, with multiple payment options and a sense that final costs were fair. No substantive complaint pattern appears in this category, though the score suggests the feedback is positive but not uniform enough to be framed as perfect.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Fair pricing language. Several reviewers describe the pricing as fair and say the company was easy to work with on cost. Some also mention feeling they received good value for the work performed. Representative review excerpt: "Super fair in pricing and did a great job!"

Flexible payment options. Reviewers say they were given multiple payment options and, in some cases, that those options helped them move forward on their own timeline. Incentive timing is not a recurring complaint in the available reviews. Representative review excerpt: "Gave me every payment option out there and worked with me on my limited timeline."

Monitoring and value notes. A few reviews mention per-panel monitoring and strong production visibility, which they associate with overall value and transparency after installation. Representative review excerpt: "I have per panel monitoring and I can actually see each and every panel and what they're producing at any given time."

Communication & coordination

Communication7.4/10

Most reviewers describe responsive communication, clear handoffs, and projects that stayed organized from start to finish. The main watch-out is that a small set of reviews reports difficulty reaching the company for repair-related help.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Responsive project communication. Reviewers frequently say James and the crew communicated clearly and kept the job moving smoothly. Several mention friendly, easy coordination through closing deadlines or other time-sensitive milestones. Representative review excerpt: "Communication was excellent, James was friendly and easy to work with, and everything got handled before my closing deadline."

Efficient coordination on site. Some reviewers note that the crew showed up on time, explained what was happening, and completed work efficiently without sacrificing quality. Representative review excerpt: "The crew showed up on time, communicated clearly, and completed the job quickly and efficiently without sacrificing quality."

Repair contact concerns. A small number of reviews report that follow-up communication for repairs or leak-related help was unresponsive or difficult to access. Representative review excerpt: "I tried contacting the company for repairs, but they were unresponsive and unhelpful."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability7.1/10

Most reviewers say the company kept projects moving and finished on schedule, including jobs completed in just a few working days. Still, there is a limited complaint pattern around delays and excuses when timelines slipped.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

On-time completion in many reviews. Reviewers often describe crews arriving on time and completing projects quickly and efficiently. Some note that the work was finished within a short window and stayed on track. Representative review excerpt: "The crew showed up on time, communicated clearly, and completed the job quickly and efficiently without sacrificing quality."

Fast turnaround examples. A few reviews mention especially quick completion timelines, including projects finished in about five working days. These comments suggest strong scheduling execution in many cases. Representative review excerpt: "From start to finish, the communication was great, and they completed the entire project in just 5 working days."

Delay complaint pattern. One review says the job was not completed on time and that the company gave repeated explanations for delays. This appears as a small but real timing concern in the corpus. Representative review excerpt: "They did not complete the work on time and kept giving excuses for the delays."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship8.0/10

Reviewers largely praise the installation quality, professionalism, and cleanup. Complaints are uncommon, but a small number of reviews raise concerns about defects or post-install support tied to the work environment.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Strong workmanship and cleanup. Many reviewers describe the work as excellent and say the crew cleaned up thoroughly afterward. Some also mention that the team handled inspection-related items such as debris removal and gutter cleanup. Representative review excerpt: "The workmanship was excellent, and everything was cleaned up and completed exactly as promised."

Professional roof protection work. Several reviews say the crew did extra work to make the roof secure and waterproof, which they viewed as a sign of care and craftsmanship. Representative review excerpt: "Did extra work to make sure my roof was waterproofed and secure to protect my house for generations to come."

Isolated workmanship complaint. A small number of reviews mention visible defects or uneven surfaces after installation. This suggests most customers were satisfied, but not every job landed well. Representative review excerpt: "The roof installation was poorly done, with visible defects and uneven surfaces."

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support5.0/10

This is the weakest area in the review set. A few reviewers report strong post-install performance and monitoring visibility, but there is also a clear concern around service responsiveness and delivery after the job is complete.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Positive post-install experience. Some reviewers say the company continued to perform well after the work was done and that they had no issues afterward. Others mention useful monitoring visibility into panel production. Representative review excerpt: "They show up, do a good job, and I've never had any problems with them after the job is done."

Monitoring visibility. Reviewers who mention per-panel monitoring describe being able to track output at a detailed level. That feedback points to solid performance visibility after installation. Representative review excerpt: "I have per panel monitoring and I can actually see each and every panel and what they're producing at any given time."

Poor service follow-through. One review says the company failed to deliver on promises and provided very poor service, which weighs on the post-install category score. Representative review excerpt: "The company failed to deliver on their promises and provided very poor service."

Bottom line: RoofTech Energy’s review profile is generally positive, with especially strong feedback on workmanship, communication during active projects, and straightforward pricing discussions. The main caution is post-install support, where reviewers are less consistent and a few describe difficulty getting help after the job is finished. Overall, the score profile suggests a solid installer with some meaningful follow-through risk once the system is in service.

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.
