I quoted multiple suppliers on my solar project this year in Coarsegold. Sunmade had the best price and the best options out of all of them. Job was well done and on time. No complaints and would use them again.

Thank you so much for your 5-star review and for giving SunMade the opportunity to earn your business, Stephen! We know the installation didn't go as smoothly as it should have, and we appreciate your patience while we worked through those challenges. We believe how a company handles problems is just as important as the work itself, and we're glad we were able to turn things around for you. Kacee and our entire team appreciate your kind words and recommendation. Thank you again for trusting SunMade with your home!

We know you had several options when choosing a solar company, so it means a lot that SunMade stood out for both pricing and equipment options. Our goal has always been to provide quality products at competitive prices without cutting corners on workmanship. We're glad we delivered on that promise and completed your project on schedule. We appreciate the opportunity to serve you in Coarsegold and would be happy to work with you again anytime. Enjoy your new solar system!

Terry Mccord3 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Terry has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
We were very happy with the servicing provided by SunMade. Due to another company’s poor work we needed our solar array mapped so we could discover which optimizer went bad. Rodrigo and Tara were fantastic to work with. Attentive, professional, timely, personable. We will always call SunMade if needing any servicing on our solar system.
Response from the owner · 3 days ago
Terry, thank you for the kind words and for trusting SunMade to help troubleshoot your existing solar system! We know how frustrating it can be dealing with issues left behind by another installer, and we're glad our team could help get to the bottom of things. Rodrigo and Tara will be thrilled to hear your feedback! We take just as much pride in servicing existing solar systems as we do in installing new ones, and we're always happy to help homeowners regardless of who originally installed their equipment. We truly appreciate your confidence in our team and look forward to being your go-to company for any future solar service needs!
