Homeowner Reviews
AI Review Snapshot
Generated by Modernize AI
Empire Solar is highly regarded for fast, professional installations and strong customer service, delivering solid value with a few notable post-install gaps.
Overall, homeowners highlight Empire Solar’s professionalism, speed, and attention to detail in roofing and solar installs. Customers note strong project coordination, help with permits and financing, and clear communication throughout. The value is solid, with competitive pricing and genuine energy savings, and many praise neat, tidy workmanship and reliable support after install. However, there are recurring concerns: initial customer-service responsiveness can be uneven, a few installations reported aesthetic inconsistencies, and post-install issues with grid interconnection or inverter service can be slow. In sum, Empire Solar remains a reliable turnkey choice with room for improved consistency in follow-through.

The installation crew was top notch. They arrived earlier than was scheduled and got right to work. They were quick efficient and consulted with me constantly on where to set up the system and how it looked visually. Very professional crew who worked together as a team and got the job done. On the sale side, Wes was a good salesman. I was a little confused by all the paperwork that was required. In the future I would suggest a little more explanation of the process and the paperwork I was going through. Would work with them again and would endorse the quality of their work.

Hands down the best experience from day one! Of course we waited until mid-September 2025 to inquire about solar before the federal tax incentives expired. We got 3 quotes locally and decided to go with Empire Solar Solutions because they were the least expensive and I felt comfortable with their staff. Not only did they deliver what was promised, it was all completed in record time. They went above and beyond for us and I'm so appreciative! Shannon Murphy at their office continually kept me updated as the process went on from financing, design/engineering, permitting, and installation. We are so happy with our system and have no regrets choosing Empire Solar Solutions to help us go solar.

TOOK TIME & EXTRA WORK--but the team has met my expectations.
Initially an extremely ugly installation with LARGE SILVER BRACING visible supporting the exterior of panels across my roof. I believe this was an UNSUPERVISED team. It looked nothing like any of their marketing materials on line, on social media channels, their website... or like any other installation I have ever seen.
I initially made outreach only to be thwarted with terrible, non-responsive customer service. But after writing this review, they became extremely responsive and fixed my install to look neat ...and just like every other tidy install I have seen.
Net-Net: Ensure you have made an explicit agreement as to what panels, racking, bracing, etc you want showing on your roof. And get it In Writing.

Empire Solar Roofing Team worked very hard to replace our roof in a day and a half. The guys cleaned up the area well and were courteous and professional.

My experience with Empire Solar has been nothing short but amazing. From the initial process with Nore (regional sales manager) at the beginning of August answering any questions or concerns I had. Then Tal stepped in and coordinated installation of my new roof replacing 18 plywood prior to new shingles being placed. Tal did a fantastic job coordinating everything from start to finish while keeping me appraised. On (10/08) they installed my solar panels and did a magnificent job from panel placement to the electrical part done by Dane who answered every electrical concerns i had. 2 months later I’m a town inspection away from being up and running. I want to thank Nore, Tal and the entire Empire team for making my experience memorable.

I had an excellent experience with Empire Solar Solutions. They redid my roof shingles quickly and with outstanding quality. After that, they installed solar panels on my large barn roof, running a trench to the house for the underground cables, and set up all the electrical panels next to my existing electric meter. The solar panel installation was completed in less than a day, and the finished look is fantastic. The electrical panels were installed neatly and professionally, with everything looking very clean. I am extremely impressed with their speed, workmanship, and attention to detail. Highly recommend!

Empire solar was great! From roofing to installing the solar panels, they were highly efficient with timing and quality of the work. While doing the roof, they also gave us a huge courtesy and installed an attic fan and fixed our gutters without any additional charge. Impressively, They left no trace that construction work was done on the house We are very grateful for the quick and easy process to get a new roof and install our solar panels with Empire Solar. Thank you!

My solar system stopped working after many years of great production, so I called Empire Solar who originally installed. I couldn’t be more satisfied with how quickly they responded to diagnose the issue. Keith and the Empire team went above and beyond by not only identifying the problem but also re-running all new wires through the solar trench to make sure everything was done right. A big thanks as well to Mark for not only stepping up and getting my system back up and running quickly but covering the new wires under warranty! Truly excellent service—I highly recommend Empire Solar!
