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

How does Soltek 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 Soltek 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.

Sales & proposal integrity

Sales Integrity6.5/10

Reviewers mostly describe a straightforward sales process, with several saying questions were answered clearly and the team was not pushy.

Billing and contract concerns. A few reviewers report surprise billing or being asked to accept new terms after an agreement had already been reached. Representative review excerpt: "When I call them back, I was told that this will be treated as a new service and that I will have to pay again for the visit of the..."

Communication & coordination

Communication7.2/10

Reviewers are largely positive about communication, saying the team is responsive, helpful, and willing to resolve issues when they come up.

Follow-up gaps reported. A small number of reviewers mention delays in office follow-up or a lack of timely callbacks. Representative review excerpt: "The only negative part of my experience was the gap of time it took to replace the panels and the customer service from the office with respect to payments."

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability7.0/10

Most reviewers say projects moved along on schedule or were completed quickly once work began. A few note delays, rescheduling issues, or interruptions tied to replacements and outside timing factors.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Quick start and completion. Several reviewers say the company got them scheduled quickly and completed the work fast once the install began. Representative review excerpt: "They answered all of my questions, were not pushy, educated us and got us on the calendar quickly for our install."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship7.5/10

Reviewers generally describe the crews as professional, respectful, and careful with the work itself. Complaints are uncommon but include isolated reports of poor behavior on site or concerns about cleanup.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Isolated site-care complaints. A small number of reviewers report serious concerns about on-site behavior or cleanup after the crew left.

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support7.2/10

Reviewers are mostly positive about system performance after install, including strong production and responsive support when issues arise. There is one complaint pattern around post-install service being treated as a new chargeable visit.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Strong post-install output. Several reviewers say their systems have performed well after installation, including strong production and noticeable energy savings. Representative review excerpt: "They installed a large solar system along with 3 batteries that has kept my house from needing to pull from the grid since the install and they also installed a..."

Support on faulty equipment. Some reviewers report that the company stepped in when warranty or manufacturer support was slow to respond. Representative review excerpt: "When the manufacturer and the warranty service company were less than responsive to requests to replace the faulty panels, Sol-Tek replaced the four underperforming panels out of their own pocket..."

Service-charge concern. One reviewer says a follow-up service visit was treated as a new paid service rather than warranty support. Representative review excerpt: "When I call them back, I was told that this will be treated as a new service and that I will have to pay again for the visit of the..."

Bottom line: Solar.com’s review corpus for SOLTEK SOLAR is generally positive, with especially strong marks for workmanship, communication, and post-install performance. The main soft spots are pricing transparency and a few complaint patterns around contract expectations, billing, and occasional delays, but those issues appear in a minority of the reviewed feedback.

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.
