Excellent5.0 Based on 57 reviews from review us onShawn SShawn S ★★★★★ After doing tons and tons of research, reading about solar, reviewing companies and narrowing down to two companies that I really liked, I ultimately chose Castaways.Elisa was the first person to contact me and she was very communicative and patient! I had a million and one questions and asked for quite a few quotes that she had no issues drawing up and getting back to me in a timely manner.I ended up signing a contract in late January and have gotten installed as of today 3/14/23 with REC 395w panels and IQ8M micro inverters that are the ideal pair.Doug and his crew were punctual and professional and cleaned up after themselves and answered all the questions I asked. They showed up at my home at 7am sharp and the crew was done with the install about 12-12:30. They had to stick around a little longer because Enphase had a few software kinks that needed to be worked out and I definitely appreciate them staying to make sure it was all good.Some advice I’d like to give which isn’t specific to castaways but any company in general, make sure you read your contract and ask about promos and get a full understanding of what you’re signing, so that you can take advantage of all the benefits available to you.I will be updating this review as time goes on.Samuel NoelSamuel Noel ★★★★★ Your search for a Solar Provider has ended If you found this company! This company has a great price and don't just sell you solar but also energy efficient solutions to reduce your overall energy consumption.Elisa is a great individual to talk to as she puts no pressure to sell you anything. She always comes with common sense which is hard to find now a days.I got installed in about 30 days from signing the contract and couldn't of have been more happy with the communication from their team.This company had the best price after talking to 4+ different solar providers. The one thing I loved a out them was they are a local company that won't change their name in a couple years and leave you out to dry.This is the best Solar company in central Florida.Elaine ThielElaine Thiel ★★★★★ Very happy with our experience and the customer service / support at Castaways Energy. After looking at several other companies and brokers, we selected Castaways. They spent time reviewing options with us and fully educating us on our choices. They are not about getting you to sign quick to make a quick sell. They are about making sure you understand what you're getting and that you're going to be happy with it. It's a large investment, so, don't settle for anything or anyone less. Hands down, I'd select Castaways again, and we highly recommend them.Julian RodriguezJulian Rodriguez ★★★★★ I spent several months looking into solar. Had sales people come to my house got the sales pitch and the prices were all over the place.I took my time educating myself about the different panels, the inverters, the specs and what they meant. Warranties etc.I made a decision on a company but when I emailed them they never called me back. At that point I decided to search again.Castaways energy is not going to come up on your top search results when you look to buy solar. I found them entirely by accident. I knew the panels I wanted and went into their website and looked for certified installers in the area. I found them and decided to give them a call. I spoke with Elisa and she was great every step of the way. She was informative but not pushy. She gave me a very fair quote. I know this because I had been looking earlier.But to me the best part about the experience with castaways is the follow through. I was kept informed every step of the way. All the paperwork was done diligently and efficiently. And I had my panels installed yesterday. The whole process from when I first spoke to them to when my panels got installed took about 4 weeks.I've seen cases with other companies based on reviews that the communication has been poor and it took 4 to 5 months before the panels got installed. So I was very blessed to have not had that problem.When it comes to the installation. That's castaways strength. They are an installation company before they are a solar sales company. So there's a chance they're the ones installing the panels that were sold to you by someone else. The installation went through without a hitch. I got a 10.8 kWh system installed on my roof and they did it in one day. Everything was done very professionally. Inspector comes today to get the final ok and then I have to wait on Duke energy so I can get turned on. I very strongly recommend this company. I believe you get a better customer experience when you cut the middle man.*****UPDATE 9/29/22*****My panels have been on for a few weeks and everything is working great as expected.But the reason I'm writing this update is because of something Castaways did to go above and beyond for their customers.With the pending arrival of hurricane Ian I received an email on Tuesday afternoon from Castaways upper management assuring me that the panels are designed to withstand sustained winds of up to 145 mph. They also let me know that if anything did happen they would be there to help every step of the way and they proactively provided the contact information to easily get in touch with them if something happened. It's the first time a company has done this in my personal experience. They did a great job in putting me at ease both with the reliability of the product and their dependability to be there for us customers in case something unexpected did happen. I will talk this company up to anyone who will listen. That attention to the little details of customer service is extremely rare and should be valued and acknowledged when given. Great job Castaways Energy!!Julian ROrlando FlThomas BarrieThomas Barrie ★★★★★ They Did An Excellent Job !! Very Professional and Polite. They Installed My 16.5 KW System all in One Day. I Would Recommend This Company to Everybody. 5 Star for Sure !! Thanks Guysjs_loader

“…I appreciate the time, effort and detail in their work to complete such a big undertaking for my family”

From start to finish, this company has been fantastic. I’m definitely a person who goes back and forth and tries to find the best advantages I can when making a purchase but castaways did a great job showing me several options and providing a large amount of choices to make the purchase simpler and easier for me. I appreciate the time, effort and detail in their work to complete such a big undertaking for my family. Despite some hiccups along the way, which wasn’t their fault they were very attentive and provided assistance that wasn’t necessary. I don’t know too much overall about solar before starting this process but castaways helped me learn quite a bit, I would say almost by holding my hand and walking me through it. Really appreciate their team as well as the consultant who helped complete the plan for me. Thanks again you guys did a great job. Hassan Barakat absolutely phenomenal!!!

“…No sales pitch no rush. I would highly recommend them”

Excellent work. Donny and his crew did a great job on the install. Cleaned up afterwards on the install. I had been shopping around for solar for a while until I reached out to Carl. Carl was straight up didn’t say Yes to all my questions and educated me further on the panels. No sales pitch no rush. I would highly recommend them. Thank You.

“…worked with the inspector having no issues”

Castaways team was excellent. They managed every step of the process to install solar panels. Everything from the site survey, engineering, interconnect agreement, permits was on time and without issue. Tortuga Installation team arrived early, keep the site clean, professionally installed and tested the system, worked with the inspector having no issues. Completely flawless effort and would completely recommend and will use again in the future.

“The crew showed up when expected and did my job in 3 hours…”

The crew showed up when expected and did my job in 3 hours. They were very polite and knowledgeable when it came to the installation. My sales associate, though not from the area, came on site to check on the progress. A very professional installation.
Thank you, Castaways Energy!

“I chose Castaways based on their reputation and have not been disappointed…”

I chose Castaways based on their reputation and have not been disappointed in the least. From helping out with HOA application to upgrading panels to meet the schedule to a prompt, courteous and diligent installation crew, everything has been topnotch.

“My PV system is working perfectly now and I am a happy customer…”

I actually searched out and found Castaways Energy as I was looking for a REC certified installer. I had 3 quotes already from different solar companies (offering lesser name panels) and Castaways beat out every one of them. The follow up and scheduling was seamless and really fast, while other companies I had reached out to all seemed very hesitant to promise a target completion date. I realized it was because Castaways is an installer themselves and they’re able to offer the full service inhouse from start to finish. Nate and his team definitely went above and beyond to deliver even better than their promise! Installation went smoothly (in half a day for 24 panels) and Keith and his crew were professional, fun and friendly! They even stayed longer until they tested each panel to ensure they were all working properly. They also made sure that everything was in order with Duke Energy to speed up the interconnection agreement. My PV system is working perfectly now and I am a happy customer! Hard to find companies these days that offer the best in every regard! I would recommend Castaways Energy to everyone without hesitation! And wish Nate and everyone at Castaways the best in success!!
