SunPower's Boise operation represents the company's push into growing solar markets across the Mountain West. With over 41 years in the industry, SunPower brings proprietary Maxeon cell technology, a 25-year comprehensive warranty, and NABCEP-certified crews to Idaho.
What distinguishes SunPower here is their panel efficiency advantage. In a state where roof space can be limited on many popular ranch-style homes, SunPower's high-efficiency cells generate more power per square foot than standard panels. This matters in Boise, where Idaho Power's net metering program has system size limitations that make every watt count.
Their 4.5-star rating across 908 Google reviews reflects strong performance at scale. The company handles everything from initial consultation to utility interconnection, and their monitoring platform gives homeowners real-time visibility into output. SunPower's zero BBB complaints and long operational history provide financial stability that gives customers confidence their warranty will be honored decades from now.
Idaho's solar market has grown significantly as electricity rates climb, and SunPower has positioned themselves at the center of that growth.
With a composite score of 78, SunPower is our top-ranked solar company in Idaho for 2026.

Legacy Roofing LLC brings a remarkable 52 years of contracting heritage to the Nampa, Idaho solar market, making them one of the longest-tenured companies on any of our state rankings. Based at Pelican Lane in Nampa and serving the broader Treasure Valley, the company's multi-generational experience in roofing and exterior construction provides a foundation for solar installation work that few competitors can match. Their understanding of Idaho's high-desert climate, with its intense summer sun, cold winters, and occasional severe weather events, has been refined across five decades of building projects in this region.
The company's Google review profile is exceptional. A perfect 5.0-star rating across 273 verified reviews is the kind of result that only happens when a company consistently delivers on its promises and resolves the rare issue before it escalates to a negative review. In the Boise-Nampa metropolitan area, where the residential construction market has grown rapidly over the past decade alongside significant population influx, maintaining that standard requires genuine operational excellence rather than just small-town goodwill.
Legacy Roofing holds NABCEP certification for their solar installation work, confirming that their technicians meet the national benchmark for photovoltaic system design and installation competency. The company handles solar projects alongside their core roofing business, offering homeowners the convenience of a single contractor who can assess roof condition, perform any necessary repairs or replacement, and then install a solar array with proper flashing, mounting, and waterproofing in one integrated scope of work. They offer both cash purchase and loan financing.
Their service area covers Nampa, Boise, Meridian, Caldwell, Kuna, and surrounding Treasure Valley communities. The company has built particularly strong relationships within the Nampa community, where their long history and owner-operated structure give them a local credibility that newer or larger competitors have difficulty replicating.
With a composite score of 76.96 out of 100, Legacy Roofing LLC holds the second-ranked position among solar installers in Idaho for 2026.

Treasure Valley Exteriors has operated out of their showroom and office on West Cherry Lane in Meridian since 2011, building a 15-year track record as one of the Boise metro area's most active exterior contractors. The company offers a full suite of services including roofing, siding, windows, doors, painting, and solar installation, positioning them as a one-stop shop for homeowners undertaking major exterior renovations. Their solar division has powered hundreds of homes and businesses across the Treasure Valley since launching alongside their core exterior services.
The numbers behind Treasure Valley Exteriors tell a compelling story. A 4.8-star Google rating across 641 verified reviews gives them one of the largest review bases of any contractor on our Idaho rankings. That volume of customer feedback, sustained at a high rating over 15 years, indicates both significant project throughput and consistent quality control. The company has accumulated 73 industry awards, a figure that reflects recognition from manufacturers, trade organizations, and local business groups alike.
Their NABCEP-certified solar team approaches installations with the same attention to the building envelope that drives their roofing and siding work. For Idaho homeowners, this integration matters because the Treasure Valley's weather conditions, including summer temperatures that regularly exceed 100 degrees, freezing winters, and occasional windstorms, demand installations that are engineered for durability rather than just peak wattage. Treasure Valley Exteriors understands how solar mounting systems interact with roofing underlayment, flashing, and ventilation, because they install all of those components themselves.
The company offers cash and loan financing and serves Meridian, Boise, Nampa, Eagle, Star, Kuna, and the broader Treasure Valley area. Their Meridian showroom allows prospective customers to see roofing and solar products in person before committing, an unusual advantage in a market where most solar sales happen through in-home consultations or online presentations.
With a composite score of 73.1 out of 100, Treasure Valley Exteriors earns the third-ranked position among solar installers in Idaho for 2026.

*Companies displaying 15 or more years in business are typically established electrical, roofing, or general contracting firms that expanded into solar installation in more recent years. The years shown may reflect the age of the parent organization or a strategic partner, not necessarily the solar division itself. This distinction is worth considering when comparing to dedicated solar installers, as purpose-built solar companies may offer more specialized expertise despite a shorter operating history.
