What the scorecards measure

Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, set against the other solar companies in San Diego. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.8 from more than 1,500 people carries different weight than a 5.0 from more than 40. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews.

No prices are published here.
