Atlasta was great to work with. They promptly returned phone calls, texts, and emails. They answered all of our questions and overall provided great customer service. Pricing was competitive, products have good warranties, and installation came and went without a hitch. Best of all, we are now powered by the sun. Id highly recommend them.

Chose Atlasta over company represented by a national solar broker and have not regretted that decision. Company people from sales and installation were both in frequent communication through the various steps in the install process. Owner also called to introduce himself and to answer any questions we might have. Our installer, Jason, was as professional as he was courteous and friendly and always called ahead of time to give us a heads up of planned work or schedule changes. Overall Atlasta provided a very pleasant experience and would recommend this solar company without hesitation.

Chris Campbell and his whole crew at Atlasta are amazing! Im a big nerd and took my research on our residential solar to the next level. I got about half a dozen quotes, researched panel and micro inverter manufacturers, studied NREL publications, etc. After too much time I narrowed down my choices to Atlasta and one other company. This is when Chris really started to shine. He answered all of my questions promptly and professionally. The choice was easy, Atlasta was the only company to even consider. Their pricing and professionalism were unrivaled. Communication was quick, pricing was great

We decided to try and do a little something to keep our planet habitable for future generations by installing solar panels to produce electricity. Upon a recommendation from a knowledgeable friend, we contacted Atlasta Solar Center to come to our home and give us an estimate on installing a bank of panels.
An Atlasta rep showed up at the agreed appointment time and after studying our situation gave us an estimate within a few days. After considering the estimate we decided to go ahead and install a 4 kw system for starters. We were given a start installation date and on that date the installers

My experience with Atlasta Solar Center and Teddy was very pleasant. From the first meeting where Teddy had the information tailored to our home, to the end, they were very professional and friendly. The installation crew was wonderful and attentive to our questions and concerns. The entire process was seamless. The best part was no electricity bills for 5 months, including through most of what has been a very hot summer. I enthusiastically recommend Atlasta Solar, and in fact, have recommended them. I am very pleased with this organization.
