How does Six Rivers Solar 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 Six Rivers Solar 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.

Six Rivers Solar 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 Integrity6.0/10

Reviewers give a mixed picture of the sales process. Many describe knowledgeable, helpful consultations with little or no pressure, while others report pushy outreach, unclear expectations, or quotes that did not match what they thought had been discussed.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Helpful, low-pressure consultations. Several reviewers describe sales staff as informative and easy to work with, and some say they did not feel pressured during the decision process.

Clear concerns about pressure or expectations. Other reviewers report pushy outreach or say the proposal and verbal expectations did not line up with what they understood would happen. Representative review excerpt: "Sales person keeps coming to my house being pushy."

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency6.4/10

Feedback on pricing and financing is somewhat positive but uneven.

Representative review excerpt: "Tried to return them and I had to wait three days for the owner to write me a refund check after I paid in cash."

Some customers felt the terms were manageable. A few reviewers say they started financing after the initial inquiry and felt the process was straightforward. Representative review excerpt: "We inquired with Six Rivers Solar in July of this year 2024, we started the process of paper work and financing in August."

Communication & coordination

Communication7.6/10

Communication is one of the stronger themes in the review set. Most reviewers describe responsive office staff, helpful follow-up, and good coordination across the project, though a smaller set report missed messages, no-shows, or unresolved issues.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Responsive office and follow-up. Many reviewers say staff were communicative, helpful, and quick to follow up when questions or issues came up. Representative review excerpt: "Adam Hurley and all the office staff were extremely communicative, very helpful with navigating our GoGreen loan, and continue to be available at the drop of a hat if we..."

Some coordination failures were reported. A smaller number of reviewers describe missed appointments or slow responses, including cases where they say they were not contacted back. Representative review excerpt: "Miguel's wife called to confirm the morning of the appointment, and Miguel did not show up and we have never received a call since then."

Issues were sometimes addressed promptly. Other reviewers say the company came out quickly to address concerns after installation or service questions. Representative review excerpt: "I did have some issues and they came out promptly to address."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability7.5/10

Timeline feedback is mostly positive, with many reviewers saying the company moved work along at a reasonable pace and kept projects on track. There are still isolated complaints about missed appointments or unfinished follow-up work.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Projects were often described as moving quickly. Reviewers frequently say appointments, paperwork, or installation steps were completed promptly and with good pacing. Representative review excerpt: "Great customer service from the office and the follow up team."

Representative review excerpt: "Miguel's wife called to confirm the morning of the appointment, and Miguel did not show up and we have never received a call since then."

Scheduling updates were sometimes reliable. Other reviewers say the team set appointments quickly and kept the process moving without much delay. Representative review excerpt: "I was uncertain if we could afford it when we went into the initial consultation and I was really pleasantly surprised that it's way more accessible than most people would..."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship7.9/10

Installation feedback trends positive. Reviewers commonly describe fast, professional work, clean job sites, and crews that completed the install neatly, with only an isolated complaint about follow-up repairs or cleanup.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support7.5/10

Post-install support is generally viewed positively, especially when reviewers needed help with monitoring, system questions, or follow-up service. Still, a few reviews describe unresolved support issues or repairs that were not completed as expected.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Post-install help was often available. Reviewers say staff remained responsive after installation and helped with system questions, monitoring, or troubleshooting. Representative review excerpt: "Great customer service from the office and the follow up team."

Monitoring and setup support stood out. Some reviewers mention help reconnecting monitoring systems or updating equipment after the system was already running. Representative review excerpt: "Special kudos to Jonah who spent an hour updating the firmware and reconnecting me to mysolaredge to monitor our solar production."

A few service issues stayed unresolved. Other reviewers report ongoing support or repair problems after the initial install. Representative review excerpt: "However problem with my wireless communication system not fixed."

Bottom line: Six Rivers Solar’s review profile is mostly positive overall, with especially strong marks for communication, workmanship, and timeline handling. The main caution areas are sales clarity and price transparency, where reviewers describe some pushiness, quote confusion, and refund or follow-up concerns. Complaints do appear in several categories, but they are less common than praise in the stronger operational areas.

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.
