When we initially had our pv system installed by Benton Electric Solar, they were great. When one of our inverters failed, they became unhelpful and then unresponsive. We had to go to another company to get our issue resolved. I would not recommend them.

Called to set up a appointment for a bid. I was assured the the "Guys" who do the estimate would call me back. Nothing. Called back four days later. To busy to take my call. I thanked them and decided to go somewhere more professional.

I actually didn't have an electrician come from Benton Electric, but thanks to a wonderful lady who answered their phone, my problem was solved. I will certainly call them when I need an electrician given their very helpful customer service.
