Recommended Customer Reviews

Shout out to Kekai. He showed up and knocked out a long list of repairs (even a few things I didn't even know I needed) in record time, and left my place spotless. 10/10 Mahalo!

Terrible customer service. Years of unsatisfactory results with our solar issues. can't get them to respond to request for service and no followups or updates to any of the visits by technicians. Their response is ""sorry we've been busy"". Sorry to say this but they are not a reliable company at all when it comes to solar issues. They were quick to take the money we invested in this product and they could care less of what happens afterward. Seems they can't wait till our warranty expires so they don't have to deal with us anymore. So fustrated, I'm done with these guys.

You can depend on these guys. They know what they are doing. They work extremely well with eachother. I love that they clean up past the point of it looks better than when they start the job. I really appreciate the work that has been done. They are the only ones that I will call on Kauai. I especially love Scott Matsunaga. Pono, Robyn,John, Marlo, etc...they all great team of men. Mahalo
