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

How does Sun Up Electric 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 Sun Up Electric 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 Integrity7.5/10

Reviewers describe Sun Up Electric’s sales and proposal process as clear, thorough, and low-pressure. The review set for this category is uniformly positive, with customers saying the team explained options well and helped shape plans before signing.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Clear explanations. Reviewers say the proposal process was explained carefully, with enough detail that there were no major questions left before signing. Representative review excerpt: "While getting quote itself I am impressed, because he explained everything and never in a hurry."

Price & financing transparency

Price Transparency7.0/10

Reviewers generally describe pricing and financing as transparent, with no hidden-cost concerns appearing in the evidence set.

Communication & coordination

Communication7.7/10

Most reviewers describe responsive communication, clear handoffs, and steady project updates from design through installation. One complaint pattern appears in the evidence set, where a reviewer says follow-up slowed later in the process, but it is rare relative to the positive feedback.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Timeline reliability

Timeline Reliability7.1/10

Reviewers mostly describe projects moving on schedule, with permits, inspections, and activation handled in a reasonably timely way. A small number of comments mention timing friction or projects that were still waiting on final steps, so the category is positive overall but not spotless.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

On-schedule completion. Several reviewers say the job was completed when promised and that they were kept informed about the next steps. Representative review excerpt: "they completed the job on schedule , everything was completed neatly , they took care of always making sure we knew the next steps were , including power shut offs..."

Fast install and inspection. Customers report installation happening quickly after signing and passing city inspection soon after. Representative review excerpt: "Within about 1 month of signing the contract, the system was installed and passed city inspection."

Final steps can still be pending. One reviewer notes the work looked good but was still awaiting city inspection at the time of the review. Representative review excerpt: "Just need city inspection but it looks great."

Workmanship & site care

Workmanship8.3/10

The workmanship reviews are strongly positive, with customers praising professional crews, careful installation, and good cleanup. Reviewers also mention follow-up attention when an issue needed to be secured or adjusted after the initial work.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Professional crew behavior. Reviewers describe the crew as prompt, organized, and careful about how they set up and worked on site. Representative review excerpt: "The crew arrived promptly, communicated their plans, set up 2 large tables to accommodate the necessary tools."

Clean and careful finish. Customers say the team cleaned up well after the job and left the property tidy. Representative review excerpt: "Lastly, they made sure to clean up at the end of the day to ensure my driveways were free from any left over debris from their installation."

Follow-up on site issues. Reviewers report that when something needed to be secured after installation, the team came back to address it. Representative review excerpt: "They came back out and secured them so they weren't damaged."

Long-term support & performance

Long-Term Support7.8/10

Reviewers describe post-install support as strong, including startup help, troubleshooting, and electrical follow-through after the system was installed. The evidence also includes comments about production and utility-bill reduction, which reviewers use as signs that the system was working as expected.Solar.com's composite of published customer feedback, not a customer quote

Startup and activation help. One reviewer says the team discovered the system had not been turned on and quickly came out to get it running. Representative review excerpt: "Eddie found out the solar had never been turned on so he quickly came to start up the solar system but he did not stop there."

Troubleshooting after install. Customers report that the company helped identify and fix additional electrical issues discovered during follow-up work. Representative review excerpt: "they even help replace a bad breaker they discovered in our panel , and help fix a short they discovered from some electrical work I had done a couple of..."

Performance feedback. Reviewers describe the system producing the results they hoped for, including lower utility bills. Representative review excerpt: "Konstantin knows his product well and was able to install enough panels on my home so I no longer pay PG&E for electricity."

Bottom line: Across 49 substantive reviews, Sun Up Electric is reviewed positively overall, with especially strong feedback on workmanship, communication, and post-install support. The main recurring caution is timeline reliability, where most reviews are favorable but a small number mention follow-up or activation timing issues.

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.
