Reviews of local pros in Silverton, Oregon

Everyone on Earthlight's team was fantastic from beginning to end. Great customer service, great products, skilled, knowledgable and friendly folks. Of the companies we considered, Earthlight had the best combination of good value, top quality equipment, and responsive staff at every step of the process. We couldn't be happier with our new 6kW array, and we highly recommend you call Earthlight if you are considering solar.

Excellent customer service. All employees were prompt, courteous, efficient, helpful, and reliable. We're pleased with the results. The project looks great, and now we're exporting power. Five-star company and review.

Great team to work with. Charles went above and beyond. Fifth installation of solar, third company, and they are the best by far. Great customer support.

From start to finish the Earthlight team has been helpful, patient, efficient, and truly great to work with. The communication has been excellent. The team explained things in a way that was easy to understand, and they tailored the system to my family’s needs. I cannot overstate how highly I recommend this team.

Everyone at Earthlight was a pleasure to work with, start to finish. Their communication was excellent, they were ahead of schedule and the work was great. Highly recommend!

Everyone at Earthlight was very responsive and professional. They went out of their way to remove my old solar system, so that I could have it reinstalled elsewhere, and to coordinate with my contractor to repair my metal roof, before they installed my new system.

The Earthlight team did a fantastic job installing 15 panels on our home! It was a speedy, pleasant process from start to finish, and the staff were quite helpful at each stage. Shout out to the installation crew for getting the whole thing installed and running in half a day!

Earthlight came in with the lowest bid and had a very low-pressure sales approach, which was appreciated after talking with many door-to-door solar salespeople. Tom was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in selecting our system, and Josiah did a great job with the site visits before and after the project. Thank you all for your great work and for helping us go solar!

Research multiple places for battery. Wanted to get it to supplement our solar panels. Earth light was absolutely incredible. They did not use heavy-handed pressure techniques like the generator companies did. The whole process was extremely clear and smooth. There’s even an app that explains the timeline. I got confused about things in the timeline and when things were not progressing as I expected. They were able to patiently explain the process and get me in the right direction so I was no longer confused or irritated about delays which were built into the process.

Three months later, they sent a really nice follow up to make sure everything is going well. I’ve never had any company follow up to see if I’m happy with the product after the fact. It was a sign of their excellent customer service. The prices were competitive and better than Tesla.

To the whole process, they help set up the app and set me up for the battery program and they made everything so easy. I highly recommend.

1/26 update

We are saving over $50/m using the battery daily with time of use billing. However tonight was the first outage. There was a flicker, darkness, for a moment, then Light!!!

Our neighbor generator was so so loud. Headache

Our battery worked seamlessly. It switched back on when power was restored- and I didn't even know. And now it's recharging for tomorrow - where it will continue to save money every day. Especially paired with solar.

Earthlight did an amazing job with installation and education. I still remember what they said about the battery and I'm impressed by how well the Franklin system works.

Highly recommend this over a gas generator

I did a lot of research and talked with four other companies (bids from two). Earthlight was, hands-down, the right choice.
Is solar an investment? Yes. That means you want to invest in people you can trust, who care about their work, and who are available when you need them. We've experienced all of that and more with Earthlight Technologies. Every worker knows their job. They care about communication and care that you, the customer, understand how to use the system you have invested in - and that it works efficaciously! When something didn't seem right with our electrical panel (it's a new build) the PM, Charles, came out and fixed it all up. The men on the roof were professional, on-time, and did a stellar job - I hardly noticed them! Boone (electrician) and Tommy (apprentice) did a great job setting up my batteries - figuring out the touchy wi-fi/internet out here. They are a great team.

I couldn't be happier with the installation and am thoroughly enjoying watching my panels gather energy, fill up my batteries, and then send more energy back to the grid. This will be a great long-term relationship and investment. Thank you to everyone at Earthlight!

Updated with photos of panels 10/9

Earthlight staff, from sales to office to tech, were the most upbeat, thorough, professional, & trustworthy crew we have met. They earned our business & also installed the best panels on the market, SunPower. We even met & hired a great roofing company in the process, Onyx. They worked seamlessly together.

Thank you to everyone. We would recommend you wholeheartedly to anyone thinking of going solar. From day 1 they presented the most professional looking proposal & that theme followed all the way through to an on-budget on-time project completion.

Very smooth process, obviously everyone knew what they were doing. We appreciated working with Scott, Josiah, Boone, Kiana, and the rest of the Earthlight Silverton crew. The install crew finished in one day and obviously knew that they were doing. Each step of the process took less time than we had anticipated. The system is working well, and we couldn't be happier. As to cost, Earthlight was very competitive.

Hands down the BEST company to work with for solar installation! They are SO patient, kind and just fun to work with! The office staff is amazing!!! The installation crew is amazing!!! Plus if you call or email, the response time is so fast! Even now, after my system has been installed, if I call with a question they treat it like it's their number one priority! I seriously can not say enough good things about Earthlight Solar...oh there is one more thing!! They are a Tesla Certified Installer! There are A LOT of Solar companies but NOT a lot of Tesla Certified Installers!! They installed a Tesla Wall Charger for my car plus two Powerwalls for battery storage! Everything works seamlessly off of Solar or Grid if needed.

If you don't think they are the best yet, get this! My Tesla Wall Charger was doing some odd things and after calling Tesla they said to send it back to them and they would send me a new one. I asked Earthlight if they would help me remove it. They did come to remove it AND they installed a brand new Wall Charger at the same time!! I had zero down time and Earthlight said they would take care of sending it back. That's great customer service!!!

From the salespeople to the office team I’ve had an excellent experience with Earthlight Solar and Energy Solutions! The price was reasonable and the customer service was outstanding! They supported me throughout the entire process including putting up with
My bad Dad jokes! If you are considering going Solar I highly recommend Earthlight for your project!

We contacted several solar companies. After going back and forth with questions, several of them just disappeared and didn't get back because it seemed like if they didn't get the sale in the first couple of correspondents then they moved on. Earthlight held fast And continued to answer my questions until I was satisfied with the whole project. I ended up choosing earthlight and ordered 27 panels and two Franklin batteries. I would have used the Tesla powerwall as my first choice but those won't charge up from an alternate generator. I wanted the option if it's dark and no power for days to charge up my battery with a generator during the day. So I can have power all night. Franklin batteries do this. We have enjoyed electric bills that are only for the hookup charge. We generate twice as much electricity right now in the summer than we use. A surplus will be banked and used up in the winter months. I'm hoping to zero out at the end of March when PGE resets our consumption allotment we've squirreled away all summer. With 27 + panels, I highly recommend two batteries.
The work crew was stellar and worked like a well oil machine. Everybody seemed to get along great and it was a pleasure working with them. They were extremely accommodating and flexible and literally went out of their way to make it the best experience. Most everything was black and white in the contract in any gray area they took care of at their expense. No squabbling no extra charges. No hidden costs. Even now a couple months later they still follow up to see how it's doing and they can see on their end how things are doing as well. They are able to monitor our system and continue to do so long after the sale is complete. It was so refreshing to have a business treat me this well. I highly recommend them for anyone wanting to go solar from a few panels to a whole big array. They do it all. They have a diverse team with different knowledge and experience all work together to provide great customer service and product.

In August I finally decided to go ahead and have solar panels installed at my home. Since I live nearby my first step was to stop by the Earthlight facility in Silverton since it is so very local. They were helpful and set up an appointment with Alex West for the initial site visit; but they told me at that time that it was unlikely that they would be able to complete the installation before the end of the year when the Federal tax credits were set to expire.
I contacted a couple of other Solar installers who assured me that they could get the installation completed before the end of the year, so I began discussions with them about my project.
Meanwhile, Alex West contacted me and let me know that Earthlight had reevaluated the resources they would assign to residential projects in 2025 and now they could commit to getting my system installed while the tax credits were still available. This was great news because communication with the other installers I had contacted was difficult, disjointed and definitely not local. In contrast Alex West and all the people at Earthlight I ended up working with were friendly, efficient, effective, and very local.
In the end every step of my project happened more quickly than the timeline that Earthlight initially laid out. The Completed system was up and running before Halloween and has been operating smoothly since the initial activation.
Thanks to the entire Earthlight team, from administration/accounting through engineering/design, installation, and follow up.

We are so excited about our new solar panels! The crew did a great job and had our system installed in just a few hours while respecting our home and leaving no mess behind. The electrical work that they did was tidy and the new Enphase panel installed looked so nice and professional. We went with a PPA so we are saving money and the planet!!! ( crew does respond well to fresh baked cookies….)

I have only positive things to share about Earthlight Solar. I met them at Home & Garden Show 2025 and were impressed with their willingness to evaluate my home and at that time my metal tile roof( which most companies said they wouldn't touch) after I decided to go with a new roof, this company was clear in their contracting process, they always responded to questions and called me back under 24 hours, and the team that I met here in my home were kind, knowledgeable and respectful. The only "off" employee was a woman in their business office who sent me to someone else to answer questions about my various payments due to them, as I had credit coming back from using less panels than original bid. My question was answered promptly by the other agent. Can't go wrong with Earthlight! Very happy!

Earthlight was fantastic to work with! They installed a total of 37 panels on our house and a shed. They worked with us closely at every step of the way, and they were excellent communicators.

We figured the payoff for the installation would take eleven years. But PGE has raised rates almost 50% since our installation, so it will be much sooner.

We had a leakage problem after the installation. But they very quickly and completely cover the fixes without any hassles or hesitation. These guys have been wonderful to work with. I highly recommend them!

Earthlight did a phenomenal job installing our new solar panels—professional, responsive, and punctual. Everything about the process was smooth, a relief after dealing with so many other flaky home projects. We'd highly recommend them to anyone looking for energy solutions; their pricing is competitive and their warranties excellent!

My wife Gloria and i spent three years getting bids and learning about Solar for our home.
When we were referred to Earthlite, it was a game changer.
Earthlight came prepared from day 1. They taught us all of the nuances of the solar system and what to expect.
The bid was complete and excellent. If we had questions they were always there to answer them.
The instalation crew were amazing. They completed the installation in 1 day.
When Pacific power finished the inspection and meter reprogramming, Eartlight followed through quickly and showed us how to monitor all aspects of our system.
Gloria and I highly recommend Earthlight to anyone considering thier services.

I am so pleased that this company will do promptly jobs large and small.
I highly recommend it!
