2 months agoAlbeit my low rating, I surprisingly enjoyed a majority of the introductory process with inquiring about solar on my property with this company, i went through some paperwork over the grant then had a ton of questions and the answers gave me more questions since on paper it looked like it would be 100% covered which clearly wasnt the case. ...where it really died out for me was how everything flipped like a switch when the 30%~ federal grant was ending and I inquired about additional electrical work that wasnt solar prior to install (an EV charger/wiring electricity to my shed) and I was told to reach out to them a month~ or so later and they were just "too busy" to deal with since that wasnt solar for the times I inquired about and they'd love to quote me the work if I waited until after the new year....Okay, sure - I waited since it wasnt some emergency for me to spend tens of thousands of dollars to them when I wasnt left certain it was a good move and I was filled with confusion on the grant/loan information aside from the high pricing. When I did finally reach back out after the new year I was told nobody is going to come out to quote me for electrical work for the times I had available (after 3pm weekdays or anything on weekends) even though that was part of the deal discussed over the month or so I was told to wait I just cant fathom the idea of considering to give a company $15,000-$20,000+ of my hard earned money, to have it seems like my time isnt valued and I have to take days off of work in order to accommodate them when I already waited over a month to work with their schedule. Will update the review to be more detailed on other concerns and confusion when I have the time. -

1 year agoI contracted for a 13 Kw rooftop solar install and CMI did a fantastic job. They have decades of experience in the industry and their customer service is excellent! I highly recommend them -

3 years agoDale and his team at CMI solar are the best in Delaware, bar none! His team were able to help with all the complex processes to ensure we were able to get the best bang for our buck with state and local programs/incentives. They were a pleasure to work with and we recommend them to everyone around! If you are going solar, go CMI! You will not be dissapointed. -

3 years agoReally wanted to do business with this company. Had a great phone discussion with a very nice lady in their office. Emailed over my power bill. It's been over a month. I've called back two times just to proactively reach out. Each time I'm greeted by very nice staff but am informed of staffing issues and that the owner would be provided my name to return the call with the initial proposal. Signed with Tesla. Really wanted to work with this company but couldn't receive materials to ascertain viability, spend, and actionable activities.
