Truckers: VERY VERY TIGHT, not for a novice.You can come in tight and adjust until you are in a blind side position or you can back in.. but beware of fire hydrant and complete blind dock.Slide tandems if you are on docks near the dumpsters.These people are extremely kind and helpful. Offered a shower and restroom although i already had my shower 😄.They will move vehicles in your way so just be on time and drink your morning coffee.read more

Solar customers of Namasté Solar from 2012, turned employee 10 years later.
We had Namaste install solar panels on our house 3 1/2 years ago. A neighbor of ours had had a good experience with them. The system is supplying over 90% of our total electricity use, which includes an all-electric car, plus a plug-in hybrid. The installation process was simple. They did all the leg work, we just had to sign some documents.More recently, we’ve had some transient problems in the panels that trigger the inverter to shut down until we reboot it and tell it to retest. Namaste has been out twice, no charge, to inspect the system and provide data to the panel manufacturer. They will replace any defective panels completely under warranty, including all labor, at no cost to us. Much better customer service and warranty coverage than just about anything you can buy these days!The latest IPCC report is saying that we’d better get busy reducing fossil fuel use NOW, and the 30% federal tax rebates start dropping in 2021. We’d highly recommend contacting Namaste sooner rather than later.——–Adddendum 2023: We had Namaste install 24 solar panels in 2015, and gave them a 5-star review. In order to offset increased electricity usage from a new electric heat pump, they recently installed another 14 panels. Gary, the design engineer, was a pleasure to work with. He came up with a layout that accommodated our desire to have a wide enough path to various parts of the roof without compromising much efficiency. They started the work a few weeks earlier than we expected, even though they had to rake snow off our roof to do so. They asked us if it would be okay for the crew to disappear early the second day in order to help another crew finish up, which we had no problems with. And then later that day yet another crew had finished early, so they came to our house to make a few more hours of progress. They also cleaned pine needles from the gutters near the previously installed panels. The system has worked perfectly, some days producing more electricity than the larger, better oriented older array—the new panels use microinverters and are much more tolerant of partial shading due to snow that has not completely slid off.We would definitely use them again, except they’ve already covered all good spots on our roof with panels :).read more

I wanted to get solar as electric prices keep going up and there are great tax breaks right now. I investigated three companies. Namaste was slightly more than the other two, as far as I could tell. The other two gave me fantastical scenarios I suspected were overly optimistic. They also were not sure what the technology being used was, e.g. type of panel, inverter type etc… Namaste quickly answered every question I had – and they were technical questions.Namaste said what everything would cost up front and never wavered. They were incredibly flexible with the financing. The work crews showed up on schedule, were polite and let me know what was needed from me well in advance.I am not sure how long Namaste has been installing solar panels but they are a pleasure to work with. They are professionals.read more

Overall our experience was great. The only “issue” was that it took quite a while for them to be able to get to us (because of being busy) but in fairness, they informed us of the wait. And it was only a very small amount longer than they estimated.Once they started, it was quick and painless. They were all friendly and helpful. It hasn’t been up and running for long, but no problems!When we have called a few times with questions, they are reasonably quick to return the call.We would certainly recommend this company for your solar installation.read more

Wow, what a company! From the initial planning to when we finally flipped on the switch, Namaste let us know what we needed to do, what the next steps were, and kept us informed about any updates. Their work crews were supremely professional and our liaison for the entire project couldn’t have been nicer or more efficient. I only wish I had another roof to add more solar to – I would 100% work with them again.read more

Great people, great service. Best Solar Crews around.
My experience with Namaste was great from start to finish. They kept us informed of the status every step of the way to let us know exactly where we were in the process (there were quite a few steps that included Boulder County, Xcel and themselves- including a long delay while Xcel installed a new transformer in the neighborhood). The fact that Namaste is locally owned was a huge plus (and owned by the employees, giving them an added incentive to do the right thing). I work in renewable energy (at the utility scale rather than the residential scale) and the equipment they installed, while not the latest module (panel) wattage, was very high quality.

We finally bit the bullet and went ahead with putting solar on our roof. After investigating several solar companies, we chose Namaste and we were extremely satisfied with the entire process. The Namaste Team kept us informed from start to finish. The install date ended up to be scheduled for November. The frosty cold mornings and cold daytime temperatures didn’t stop our installation and our team (led by Matt T.) arrived promptly and in good spirits. The job. Was completed a day ahead too!This company is locally owned and started in Boulder, as well.read more

We had a very good experience working with our Namaste Solar team. We were given a time line for each step of the process and the timing of each step. Being part of the decision process regarding the number of panels to meet our needs as well as how they would look on our house ensured there were no surprises. We got our installation done ahead of schedule. The installation crew was friendly and knowledgeable. Job well done from start to finish.read more

Our experience with Namaste Solar has been fantastic! From the initial contact, installation and follow up our experience has been stellar. They have a clearly designed process to help understand how each step will go. All of employees who came to install were respectful and very efficient. AND equally important, the system works wonderfully – I love being able to see in real time how much money we save from our solar panel installation.read more

I was referred to this company by a friend who had installed solar. Going solar It is not a simple procedure, it required months of prep work just getting to the installation phase, however Namaste helped through the whole process from prep, to financing, to installation and getting our system set up on the grid. I would absolutely use them again, plus I like that they are a certified B company.read more

I’m so glad I selected Namaste Solar for my PV system in 2010. I am 9 megawatt hours ahead in over production and not paid for electricity since the install. My old inverter finally failed, as they do, and Namaste will replace it with new. The service guys were prompt, capable, knowledgeable, and notably, as employee owners, enjoyed their jobs and proud to work for a successful local company. Their pride showed in their helpful attitudes and work ethic. I have spoken with the project manager for my job of work and he is knowledgeable and willing to discuss the technical aspects of my PV system. I’m very glad that I’ve partnered with Namaste for my contribution to a cleaner planet.read more

From start to finish, my experience with Namaste has been fantastic. They helped me work through getting the plans approved with my HOA, and took as much time as needed to answer my questions about all aspects of the project. Everyone from my project manager, to install team have been super responsive and professional. Of note in working with Namaste – several things really set them apart and above other companies: they are LOCAL, they are EXPERIENCED, they use HIGH QUALITY PANELS and they are EMPLOYEE OWNED. I’ve heard stories about customers signing up with out-of-state companies, getting poor quality materials installed incorrectly, damaging their roof, etc, and then not being able to get in touch with anyone. You can trust Namaste. I will confidently be recommending them to friends and family interested in solar.read more

It was a pleasure working with Namaste Solar on the this project. There are a lot of solar companies out there, but I felt like it would be better to have installers that were also co-owners and I was not disappointed. Special thanks to Luke with the design, quote and work expectations, to working with Jason on the electrical panel upgrade and all the extra’s that Devon did. Thanks Namaste Solar..!read more

Namaste’s proposal was prompt and conservative on the power estimate. The crew they had at my house was safe and professional, and completed the work in only 3 days. I had a 11.25 kW system installed, and the process was completely turn key. The only work I did was to sign the checks, every other part of the design, permitting, and construction was taken care of for me. An excellent experience all around. You get what you pay for, and no scam lease nonsense.read more

Namaste did exactly what their proposal said they would do and at the cost they said they would do the work. They answered all of my questions quickly and were very thorough. Their crews seemed very knowledgeable and conversant. I would recommend Namaste.I received my first Xcel electric bill today and it appears Namaste’s economic estimate was fairly accurate (15 year payback versus 17 year based on my first Xcel bill). Future Xcel rate increases will improve the payback period.read more

Beautiful and thorough job installing 19 solar panels on my roof over the course of 2 days. Jay and his crew left about an hour ago. I have to say, they were the nicest young men I’ve had the pleasure of meeting in a while. Very professional, so courteous and kind. AND knowledgeable. They all worked together as a cohesive team too. Jay swept out my garage after accessing the attic…looked beautiful! And Ryan did a beautiful job sweeping the insulation bits up from the hallway and living room too. Very nice people.Jay and Collin did an excellent job explaining the inverter and the power box breaker too. And the process and time line of having the system inspected and ON in the next month.Anna in the office kept me organized with the paperwork. All very timely responses and efficient job. I can’t recommend Namaste’ Solar enough. Very Best, Sara Bread more

I gave Namaste rave reviews for installing my rooftop solar panels a couple of years ago – they did an awesome job. However, half of my panels quit working in June and it took a couple of weeks to connect with service department who told me there was a service backlog of 6-8 weeks due to COVID. Ok, not a great answer but understandable. Fast forward 7 weeks since that conversation – not a peep or return phone call even though I have called every week and tried to escalate the problem. I just want to know when my panels will be fixed. I spoke to receptionist last week and week before and she promised to “get it to someone to call me back” even though “service Dept has been slammed”. I understand the limitations this virus environment is creating to keep employees safe – but customer service shouldn’t be impacted as they can make calls from anywhere. I am actually afraid they are struggling to keep doors open since I can’t seem to get any response. It is beyond frustrating. ****follow up: after I posted the initial review, I received call from manager of service, very apologetic. Service within the week and issue resolved.********2021 update – I had great customer service this time. I think it was just the upset of Covid with my prior experience. Highly recommend!read more

We recently had solar panels installed on our house in Estes Park and Namaste did a fantastic job. The communication throughout the process was very thorough. They gave us an overall breakdown of the process, including expected duration for each step, and updated with every change in the design, installation, permitting, utilities, etc. I can’t think of any way it could have gone smoother. Highly recommended.read more

Namaste was great to work with, made the entire process form initial inquiry, design, build, to follow-up super efficient. Plus we had a rather archaic and crowded breaker box and they took the time replace and reorganize it to accommodate the solar. Best of all, we’re paying less than we were each month wile lowering or carbon footprint!read more
