Solar CenTex
We'll recommend a solution that will maximize the solar electricity production and be aesthetically beautiful. Solar pergolas are a great solution to provide shade for you whether it's poolside or for additional roof space for solar panels. Solar CenTex isn't just a name. We've either lived in Central Texas our whole life or the military brought us here and we said, "We're staying right here!"

We're going to make sure every system we put in is right, because we know we might just see you around town! We're solar advocates for Central Texas and we'll do everything we can to grow this industry here. Nothing would make us happier than a dozen competitor companies seeing the potential of solar.

We'll compete so you win in the long term. We make the time to educate and collaborate because it's how you will get the best investment value. If your installation was done by another company, no problem! Solar CenTex adopts and repairs others' solar work.

There is no doubt that solar is the "hot thing" right now and that means more and more people will start chasing your dollars looking to make a buck. We don't dabble in fireplaces or air conditioners or electric supplies and lighting. We don't change our name like some we know when a list of irate customers causes them to "re-brand."
We'll recommend a solution that will maximize the solar electricity production and be aesthetically beautiful. If you want solar, we can install it. Part of our site survey at your home is to recommend a solution that will maximize the solar electricity production and be aesthetically beautiful. Solar pergolas are a great solution to provide shade for you whether it's poolside or for additional roof space for solar panels.
It might seem a silly question for us to ask but everyone has different reasons for installing solar. How you answer this helps us recommend the right system for you. There is no right way to answer the question. Previously, 95% of our customers wanted to reduce their electric bills with a straight grid-tied system, but we are finding more and more people who want the security and reliability of creating and storing their own energy.

Don't you hate "it depends" answers? We do too, but it's true because so much depends on: how much energy do you need; how much roof do we have to work with; how much upgrading is necessary for the electrical integration? Typically - No. 70% of what we install for our residential customers is a "grid-tied, no battery backup" system.

When we decided to get a solar energy system, this company stood out for us as 1) it is local, 2) the majority of reviews hold Solar Centex in high regard, 3) it has NABCEP Board Certifications for PV Technical Sales AND for PV Installation Professional, 4) it has its own certified master electrician, and 5) some of its own people use the same components/systems that are put into customers' projects. While installation did take longer than expected due to Covid-related supply delays, we are very happy with how the final product looks and, more importantly, how well it is working. And having the

I initially chose Solar Centex because of their excellent reviews, and have been so happy I did. They took care of everything in the application process, including my HOA requirements. The finished installation looks fabulous, better than any other in my neighborhood. My first electric bill of $0 in the heat of July cemented my opinion - 5 stars all the way.

We are SO happy with our recent solar panel and battery system install!
We were kind of guinea pigs for one of the 16.7kW popular LG batteries that Solar CenTex is starting to carry and install. There were some things that they had to work out to make sure that the system was working the way that it was supposed to, but I told Scot that I'd rather the system take longer to put in and it be put in RIGHT than it to be put in fast and not well. While it did take longer than initially anticipated, they were still well within their contracted time for the install... AND I still recommend them

I was looking to build a pergola at my house and came across Solar Centex. I had some specific requirements; they had no problem meeting. They went over all the benefits of getting solar panels, and they even gave me a Customer Book on what I should do and expect after the solar panels were installed. Everyone I met on the team was genuinely happy to work with me, and all came with a smile. The fundamental idea of excellent customer service is how a company will treat you after they are done with the build, and I am happy to say their response to any request has been excellent. I am proud to mention

After comparing prices with other companies we chose to go with Solar Centex for several reasons. First and foremost, Sabrina is amazing!! She loves what she is doing and is very responsive to questions asked. We have changed and added things randomly throughout the process and Solar CenTex has been very patient and willing to work with us. I love that they can do alternate was of getting solar power to your house. We had some placed on the house and had a pergola built with solar panels on top. They did a fantastic job!! They communicate well, friendly, and professional!!!! I would recommend Solar

We choose Solar CenTex because their installation looked so much more professional than other companies we looked at. Sabrina Arnold came & explained there systems to us in easy simple ways. She showed us apps on our phones to track usage. Everything was straightforward & simple. The installers were so nice & professional. We were very impressed. But the best part was watching our apps because we could see energy clicking back into the grid. And what that means is the energy company owes us! It doesn’t get better than that

What a simple and awesome experience from start to finish. From the first time they came to the house to talk about their product, the information provided was great and exactly what we were looking for to make our decision, no pressure and never once had a negative comment about the competition. Installation was smooth, the crew was always on time and checked in with us when they were done for the day and left our yard clean, like they were never there. We look forward to the savings and benefits in the future. Would recommend Solar CenTex to anyone looking to put solar on their home.
Thanks

I have wanted solar for years so I contacted Solar Centex and scheduled a meeting with Sabrina. I emailed her some info about my electric consumption and when she showed up for the meeting she had a complete plan and price already prepared. She's very knowledgeable and was able to answer my questions. Highly recommend them as they were accommodating on where to place the inverter so that it was out of site. After the installation Sabrina came back out and helped me change my electric plan and how to monitor the panels through the ap. Looking forward to the meter running in reverse.

From the beginning Solar CenTex made us feel comfortable with the whole process of making the switch to Solar. Sabrina clearly explained in detail the entire process, and was able to answer any questions that we had. She was very open and honest with all costs and contract details, and even handle most of the paperwork! The install team was very professional! With the completion of out solar system, Solar CenTex provided a seamless, and aesthetically pleasing system. We are so happy that we chose to become part of the Solar CenTex Family, there is no doubt that they strive to provide the best services

I would definitely recommend Solar Centex to anyone! They Installed a 33'x17' Solar pergola in our backyard that now produces us 100% of our electricity needs! We currently have a $45 credit from our Electric Company! Woo! They are paying us now instead of US paying THEM! I love the fact that I get to produce all my energy, extend my patio and add value to my home all in one! and OH! I don't have to pay property taxes on the value of my solar system! Oh! and i got a 30% tax credit off the total cost! It CANT get any better than that! Solar Centex is a local company and they took care of us like

I just had solar panels put on my house with Solar CenTex and I'm so excited to see how well the Texas sunshine is working to reduce my electric bill! I was really concerned that the cost of installing solar panels would be too high and wouldn't be worth it for me but I did a ton of research. I looked at my electric history for the last two years to come up with an annual average and then I got 3 estimates from companies in Texas. Solar CenTex was the closest in proximity but that didn't convince me to use them. The other reviews I read about the company and my own interaction with

If you are searching for clean energy and saving money during those scorching summers, Solar Centex is your answer. Sabrina provided a clear understanding of how everything works together. From the energy collected from the panels and going to the grid. Solar Centex makes custom systems for any home/business application. I get tons of questions from neighbors and of course a lot of compliments. Thank you Solar Centex for giving me and my family peace of mind on our selection.

Oh, scot!!! Need to clarify! Not leaving a string of reviews as you said. Only replying to your comments. And you have known about my review since I first posted it and you called my husband to tell him to have me remove it!!! Not to worry about how dangerous my system is...Solar Lighthouse of Austin came and fixed it. Very reasonable, professional , knowledgeable group. Maybe you could call them for some help?? And Merry Christmas to you also!!!

I really hate giving this bad of a review to a Veteran owned company but when they are not completely forthcoming with information, lie about their proposal, and when the deal is cancelled and the owner, Howard "Scot" Arey, tells me I'll get a refund on my deposit and lies about that too, well I have no choice.

This all began with an email from one of Scot's employees. She dug up a cold file and started sending me emails asking if I was still interested. We exchanged emails and I decided to schedule a meeting.

She's a sweet young lady and appears to really be a hard

Very knowledgeable. Very professional. Excellent installation. Great support. The system works as they said it would. The final result is very attractive looking and well done. This is well done solar energy. Highly recommended.

If you are considering solar, this is the company that you should have install it.
