Forme Solar worked with me during a recent remodel of my house. They removed some existing solar panels to facilitate the remodel and then re-installed the panels and upgraded my existing system to add 25% additional capacity as well as switching the system to use micro-inverters. The whole process went very smoothly from initial contact to completion with Forme handling the whole project on a turnkey basis up to and including making sure that the SCE interconnect agreement was properly executed. The quality of the work was very high and the project was completed on time at a good value. I am

I had nothing but great experiences working with Forme Solar! I shopped around and researched for months before going solar and found Forme Solar, due to having the best combination of excellent customer service and value. I had a lot of questions about solar energy and they were incredibly insightful, honest, and knowledgeable about their product… and solar in general. As far as the ease of the process, once I signed an agreement with them, they were quick to schedule an appointment to come to look at my roof then soon after to come to install. The team that came out to install my solar

Forme Solar was as promised. The company own employees and not a subcontractor went above and beyond what was promised. With all the horror stories on solar companies installations I can't believe anyone would choose anyone other than Forme. I research solar companies for 9 months before selecting a local company with there own employees. It was one of my best decisions.

I can't speak highly enough of Leanne and the Forme Solar team. Every interaction I had with the company was extremely clear and helpful - from initial project description and quote to final installation. Not only is their customer service great, but their pricing is extremely competitive too! Truly a complete package and I highly, highly recommend Forme Solar to any other homeowner in SoCal.

I found Forme Solar after comparing 7 solar companies. 4 were local solar companies, and a few large solar installers like Tesla solar. I went with Forme because they were helpful and responsive. Their pricing was super competitive and the team was helpful in getting the project completed. My success manager at Forme gave me updates. It took a while waiting for the permit but after that point everything went by quickly. Helpful. Responsive. Good information. Glad I went with black panels and microinverters. Even my neighbors have come by to ask about the roof solar. Already told a few friends
