About

Solar.com runs solar jobs from Atlanta. They let a homeowner punch in an address and pull a price in 90 seconds by sending the roof details out for bids from installers then locking in the lowest one under their Best Price Guarantee. Financing choices come with the quote and Solar.com stays on the hook after the panels go up through their coverage program. A named contact stays with each project from start to finish.

Homeowners describe getting full system designs pulled from their usage records and roof measurements then seeing three to five bids lined up side by side for easy comparison. Sam Wigness kept one job on track to hit the tax credit deadline even when it started late. Joseph Hunt and Rex walked customers through upgrades and options while Madeline and Chris Voight handled the paperwork and answered questions on the spot. Some jobs ran into long permit waits or slow responses from the crew once the contract was signed and a couple of owners said the electric bill stayed high until the vendor came back out.

The outfit keeps normal business hours and answers the phone with a real person who already knows the address and the bids. They run the whole flow from roof check to final sign off without sending sales crews door to door and they show every payment path including prepaid and monthly plans so the owner can pick what fits the savings numbers. Work covers Atlanta and the nearby towns where their customers have put systems in.

The Google rating sits at 4.6 from 267 reviews and the DIRT Score is 4.4. Reviewers keep coming back to the clear bids and steady communication from the assigned contact while a few note that the actual installer can drag on permits or follow up. DIRT Score 4.4 from 267 reviews on Finds.

What Customers Say

“Solar.com did an amazing job spec'ing out my system, finding installers, and getting everything completed by the crucial 12/31/2025 tax-credit deadline (despite me starting the process in late September). I absolutely could not have done this without them. Sam Wigness was the ideal liaison throughout the process (even though he's usually more on the marketing side than sales). He was always available with clear communication, helpful opinions, and a relaxed demeanor that made me feel comfortable. And the one time when I thought we might miss a deadline, he answered me promptly and helped to mobilize a response from the installer. I'm very grateful for Solar.com and Sam Wigness for helping me get my solar panels installed and running before 12/31, thanks.”

“NEGATIVE. I DO NOT RECOMMEND AT ALL. they guarantee their vendors are the best. But once they, both the vendor and pickmysolar/electrum get their money, everything disappears. This is just a third party middleman. I had trouble with the vendor's vendor coming to my home at random times. And my electric bill was still high. But electrum did not help at all with even talking to the vendor, MegaSolar, at the moment. They just said, our job is done. They had guarantee that their vendors were the best because of all the referrals, but I CAN guarantee, electrum or Megasolar are below par in customer service. It took several months for anyone to come out to my home after installation to discover that the programming had to be updated, which resulted in the high electric bills and electric consumption. It was a simple monitoring, which was suppose to be done from the solar company that was never done. I reached out to Electrum many times to let them know I was having trouble with their preferred/referred company, and all I got was silence.”

“Superior customer service. Ingenious business model. Generates competition amongst proven installers and allows homeowners to go solar with confidence that they are getting the best deal in their area.”

John Frey

“Joseph Hunt with Pick My Solar is awesome. He helped us work through an upgrade to a solar system that we ended up not upgrading and then after moving helped us install a system on our new home. The Pick My Solar team is very knowledgeable and efficient. They are quick to respond and even better, at the times I could manage. Their information intake, bidding platform and overall business model provides a reliable and trustworthy service to those interested in going solar. Pick My Solar is one of the best companies I've ever had the pleasure of working with.”

OC McNamara Family

“I was very pleased with the Pick My Solar crew, specifically Rex. The information provided by Pick My Solar was instrumental in my decision with which contractor to use. Pick My Solar saved me a lot of time and hassle having to deal with different contractors/sales people. They were friendly and knowledgeable and took the time to explain about solar systems in easy to understand terms. I have no regrets in my decision to go with solar and I highly recommend Pick My Solar to all my friends.”

“I worked with Madeline - she was great. I would recommend anyone seriously considering going solar, and who is ready to receive bids to start with Pick My Solar. (Ultimately I did not select a Pick My Solar offer to me - but their process is the most helpful and easiest to deal with, of all the research/work I did on my own). Pick My Solar is a very good site. They are middlemen yes, and will make a profit from you (and the install company) if you go through them. But if you want a one-stop place that can handle it all for you and who will work on your side and get you several good offers to compare/select: Pick My Solar is for you. I liked them very much: they are knowledgeable and have good connections. They will get you good offers, BUT if you use them as a starting point, you should be able to get a BEST offer yourself (that they will then price match anyway - or at least come sorta close). So start with Pick My Solar. Have them get several bids for you - as they ask questions about your needs be honest with them. They really are good listeners and want you to get the best system they can design. And as I say above, if you are not a hands on consumer or in a hurry or not want”

“The whole process was well presented. Pick My Solar designed the solar panel system we needed for Swiss Family Farmhouse with installation on our barn. They made sure that the three bids we received were on the same design and materials. They had vetted the contractors and we were extremely pleased with the bid and installer we picked. Pick My Solar helped us get the information needed for our federal tax rebate, a Dept. of Agriculture grant that our farm qualified for, and helped us understand the payback from our power company. My husband is very analytical, and the Pick My Solar reps always welcomed any questions we had and fully explained all the details. They were communicative and responsive. We hooked up on Dec. 23, 2016. And in February 2017 our electric bill was reduced by 53%! We were amazed! It was one of the rainiest, hence cloudiest, Februaries on record in the Pacific Northwest! March had a 56% reduction, THEN the next 6 months our bill has been reduced by over 90% every month! We signed the contract with complete confidence and love to recommend Pick My Solar to everyone!”

“The solar panel installation was just OK. But no one cautioned me about the time length to complete the whole project. Two guys were able to install the solar panels plus all the accessory equipment and connections in less than 4 hours. However, the time it took after my installer selection to sign-off by PG&E was closed to six months!! I selected the installer in June, 2022. I waited for weeks before the installer sent someone to take a detailed look of the house (before that every company just use Google Earth for the price estimate). I waited for some more weeks for the company to generate the engineering drawings which I approved the very next day. I waited a lot more weeks for the installation team that finished the work in less than 4 hours. Then I waited for months for the City inspection. Because the installers missed the grounding requirement, the City inspector has to come for the second time. After a few more days, PG&E gave the approval. That was in December, 2022. After the solar panel installation, another team came to my house after a few more weeks to connect the solar panels to my electrical panel. Because the team did not reset the electrical panel circuit breaker”

“We had a really great experience with this service a couple of years ago. Initially, they designed a solar roof system for us that incorporated our specific requirements and roof details. Then, they put it out to bid. We received 4 or 5 bids, and they helped us go over the bids to find the best one. Because we have metal shingles, one bid that was significantly cheaper was from a company that used to install metal shingles. The companies that bid on our project were ones that we wouldn’t have known about, but all were quite experienced and up to the task. The company we ended up signing a contract with ended up doing a great job, and has supported us well. Overall, Pick My Solar made the whole decision process easier for us, and allowed us to make a fairer decision. I’d recommend them to anyone who’s thinking about solar.”

Joe Goldberg

“Great working with Pick My Solar. My husband and I have wanted to go solar for some time, but we were concerned about picking the wrong vendor and being sure we were getting a good product. It was perfect when our utility company recommended that we work through Pick My Solar, our agent Chris Voight helped us every step of the way. Answered all our questions and was always available to help. They helped us pick the best installer and best product to meet our needs. Our solar system is live and we are thrilled. I recommend this company to anyone who is thinking of going solar.”

Joan Caiazzo

“Pick My Solar was fantastic. We started with them in California and then ended up moving to Seattle, where we just got our solar panels. Pick My Solar was great throughout the entire process, from getting our bids in California and helping us pick the best option there, to figuring out the benefits in WA and finding our best option here. They helped us navigate when the solar company we were working with here was being unresponsive. We would highly recommend using them to anyone even considering going solar.”

Erin Munavu

“Great experience! I had shopped for solar a years ago and it was a nightmare. My name and phone number were distributed to numerous contractors who continue to call. They use high pressure tactics which I insulting. Recently I heard about Pick My Solar. I was skeptical but after reading how they worked I gave them a try. It was exactly as explained. Three bids from different companies. No salesmen or phone calls. I reviewed the bids and made my selection. One on-site visit to inspect and review my house. Then permits were submitted. Once approved the installation was scheduled. Polite, competent and clean install. I highly recommend Pick My Solar. No cost and no obligation to get bids.”

Leonardf Pihlak

“The process of getting bids and determining the size system for our house was outstanding. Jessica was very responsive and delivered the information on schedule. She made it very easy to follow when presented with the variety of contractors. Would have posted 5 stars if it were not for the company that installed the system. Jessica seemed to think that SOlar Symphony was a solid installer and presented us with several bids for different sized systems from others, but Solar Symphony always seemed to be the best bid. The company was over a month late in completing the job and offered little in return for the lost power credits and extra electric bill. Jessica was awesome, but the companies getting the work need to be held accountable for the completion of the jobs. Thank you.”

Tom McCray

“I used Electrum as a 3rd party for handling my solar project. JD was my assigned representative, and he was great! Not only did all my solar questions finally get answered but everything was clear and straight forward. The folks that come by my neighborhood door to door offering solar could never answer those questions before. Loved my experience and would recommend it to anyone. The company whos bid we chose was perfect and really easy to communicate with”

Ana D'Amico

“We got solar last year and it's the best investment we've made! We went through Pick My Solar and I'd highly recommend them!! They're not a solar sales company, but a customer advocate. They review your usage to determine the necessary size system and then work directly with contractors to get bids for the system. Then show them to you in side by side analysis with their recommendations. The quotes are much lower than if you sought yourself because they're all competing for the job. They also do all the permit paperwork for you, which is HUGE. They have lease and purchase options and help you choose what's best for you based on your situation. They even have a tool on their website to show the scenarios. I seriously couldn't be happier working with them. They explain every step of the process, educating and empowering you as the homeowner. And are even available still when I have follow-up questions on my usage, electricity bills, etc. They really are a high caliber company and I couldn't recommend them more highly if you're considering solar!”

Sarah Johnson

“Pick My Solar is a convenient way to go solar, knowing that you will get a great system and the best cost, and having an expert third party to rely on if there is a problem. My total invested time in the selecting and contracting an installer was under an hour. My system has been working flawlessly almost three years. With net metering from SCE I get a monthly connection invoice for about $5, then a settle-up bill at the end of the year. Last year I paid about $180. The men and women at Pick My Solar are great to work with; they know what they are doing. They saved me a lot of time, money, and most importantly, uncertainty.”

Bob Musselman

“My first contact with Pick my Solar was on 10/6/16. On 11/15/16, we have a complete up and running solar system at a great price. They made the process extremely easy and straightforward. The quotes I got from them were lower than quotes I later obtained from the same companies. I would recommend in a heartbeat.”

Dave Tracy

“Pick My Solar made selecting a system and installer for our home easy. The company and their reps were professional and courteous. We enjoyed working with them. We highly recommend them to anyone interested in installing solar panels.”

Anrui Guo

“The agent for Pick My Solar did a survey of my home property layout online, reviewed my power usage, and obtained bids from installers. The one we selected provided more power and a better warranty at a favorable price than the other bids proposed. The company was easy to work with, efficient and very professional, which speaks well of the judgment Pick My Solar uses in soliciting vendors.”

Jeff Schoenwald

“I obtained ten bids on my own before using Pick My Solar's service that not only got the most competitive price, but a vendor who provided excellent service and materials (LG panels). Pick My Solar also provided excellent follow up service to make sure my system was installed and operating.”
