We have been considering getting solar for several years. The price point was always too far out…read moreof reach. We had several companies come out and give us bids. We had companies bid where we could "lease" the equipment, a bid where we could buy directly from them and install the system ourselves which was supposed to save us nearly 40%. The company where we would install it ourselves told us it would "only take a day or two" to install the system. Luckily, before I pulled the trigger with any of these other companies, I met Patrick with Sovereign Solar. Patrick gave us a bid that was only slightly higher then the bid where we were going to have to install the system ourselves (including the permitting process and working with the local utility company.) Patrick did an excellent job navigating through the licensing and permitting process with both the local government as well as the local utility company. I can tell you this was not an easy process and one that I had no desire to deal with. Patrick and his team (Kyle and Ray) completed our project professionally and in a timely manner. Patrick has always been very responsive to questions and any concerns. I saved enough money that as an added bonus, I had Patrick install the "Sense" monitoring system so we can see exactly what appliances are using electricity and how much. So basically, if you are serious about getting a solar system....stop wasting your time looking around.....I have already done all the research and Sovereign Solar should be your first and only call.

When we decided to go ahead with Solar, we did our homework and interviewed several solar…read morecompanies. We decided to go with Sovereign Solar; based on how comfortable we were with Patrick's (the owner) knowledge base, and experience in the industry. They also had all the other options that the national companies have, including, access to high quality equipment, and financing options, but with a local presence in this area for several years. Patrick has proven to be dedicated to his customers, by always responding to our texts and phone calls without hesitation. In addition, Sovereign Solar USA and their employees worked with us to meet an installation date before the end of the year, with only a couple of months to do so. This not only included the actual installation, but also getting our Electrical Company's application processed. This was done without losing quality workmanship in the process. The installers Nick and Kyle also impressed us with their work ethic, knowledge, and customer service. Sovereign Solar USA is truly customer service oriented, and has worked beyond what was expected.

These guy's are great. I will never use anyone else for Electrical work. Jeremy came the day I…read morecalled and his electricians came the next. The electricians Roberto and David were great, in fact, they were all exceptional. I have an old home that had a Federal Pacific Electric box. If you have an old home like mine and you have one of these electrical boxes (have it replaced asap)! Those never did work well and are definitely a fire hazard! They knew the history and got it done the next day.

Received a a very quick and prompt estimate. Had an electrical box fire, that destroyed the breaker…read morebox and the power supply meter with cables connecting the two. Was three days from the 4th of July, Roberto who gave the estimate knew it was an emergency. Power Company turned off the Water and Gas due to protocol with no electricity. Was a house with a 65+ year old, and couldn't stay there. Was at hotel since 4 days before the estimate. Was told by Roberto he would get the ball rolling because it was an emergency, approved the estimate within 10 minutes. Not a word from them a week later. Even called looking for an eta, information anything. So Monday, 10 days after incident, called someone else local. They came out same day for an estimate, literally 8am the next day to do the job. For 600 dollars less and replaced an old wire on top of that. While Tuesday afternoon I never did receive a call from Jeremy, but I did call and cancel. So while Jeremy Electrical I might call to update a system, replace outlets, or such jobs. Would not call again for an emergency. Edit: 100% hit accept on the estimate from the link in E-mail as soon as Roberto left, called next day to confirm it was approved though. Was not once called by Jeremy electrical, but sure cares enough about Yelp comments to reply literally 2 minutes after it was posted though.

Joining the solar panel world was something my husband and I were hesitant about. Nothing we read…read moreonline made us say, "Yep. Now's the time." After speaking with a representative of Volta Solar - everything was broken down for us into terms that made us decide to make the move to solar. We were informed of all the stories that are read online and how this particular company differs. We also weren't put on the spot to make a decision right then. The electricians responsible for the job were respectful of our home and our property. They even enjoyed having our dog in the yard with them. Everything was done in a timely manner and given to us as an understandable play-by-play. To no fault of their own (something to do with how our house was built), they did have to return the next day to finish one small task. I definitely recommend going through this experience with Volta.

I was working with a contractor who was dealing with my insurance directly so they handled all the payments to subcontractors, including The Solar Guys. With all that, these guys were great! Quick response to my calls, coordinated directly with the contractor to have everything on schedule. Afterwards we discovered some of my panels were underperforming (over 10 year old panels) and they came back & took care of warranty replacements. They even relocated the envoy (system monitoring device) for better performance. It's been a little over a year so once and I'm still very happy with the crew, communication and results.
