Installation costs and process
Costs
Performance Solar mentions that its solar experts work with clients to do an exhaustive review of the numerous factors that can influence their decision to go solar and thereafter craft solutions to eliminate any out-of-pocket needs. The company also mentions that it can fund the entire project.
There is no accessible information online relating to the company’s pricing, and the company does not advertise its prices on its website either. Of the sources we scoured, we could only find one customer review for the company; however, the customer did not provide any feedback relating to pricing.
Due to the lack of solid evidence, we cannot guarantee that customers in the past have paid the quoted price.
Legitimacy
Performance Solar LLC is legit.
Performance Solar LLC has been registered with the Virginia Secretary of State since the 26th of February 2014 – ID # S4938512. |
The company possesses a Class A Contractor License in Virginia – Licence # 2705099730 |
That said, we identified that the company briefly ceased trading and deactivated its license in 2021; however, the license was reactivated in under a month.
Maintenance
The company does not say whether it offers any form of maintenance with its systems.
Our secret shopper also tried reaching out to the company to enquire about maintenance services, but unfortunately we did not receive a response.
Therefore customers may either have to rely on third party organisations to maintain their systems, or ensure that Performance Solar actually provides this service.
Customer Service (Review Analysis)
Unfortunately, we were only able to find one customer review for the company, in which the customer only provided a rating of 5* but did not leave any feedback.
The SolarEmpower View
Performance Solar LLC claims to provide its customers with systems tailored to their specific requirements and home environment. As a fairly small company, Performance Solar LLC has not received any solid publicity and does not provide a portfolio of work samples to back up its claims. In addition, the company did not respond to our inquiry, making it much more difficult to point out many positives.
Therefore, due to its lack of customer reviews and general lack of an online presence, SolarEmpower would strongly advise exercising caution when considering the use of this company.
