The 4th year production shows improvement over the 3rd year as I kept the panels clean. However,…read moreit's still about 4.8% below the minimum guaranteed production (accounting 0.25% maximum annual panel degradation). It's 4 year in a row now the system failed to produce the minimum guaranteed production. AWS Solar chose to compensate for the shortfall again; we'll see what the 5th year production looks like. I suggested replacing some of the panels with the higher power ones to solve the issue, but I guess they want to see more data.

I hired AWS Solar to install solar panels on my home In May 2026. They completed the job a few…read moreweeks later. They did a very good jod. I am pleased. However, upon completeing the job, the project manager Tim Broughton called me, helped me log on to the Enphase app so that I could monitor the panels. After I confirmed that I was logged in, I was told that I was up and running And they were done. I was happy thinking I was now running on the sun. Wrong. So very wrong. I received my electric bill and astonished to see the electric portion was over $800.00. I called the power company and was told that the $130.00 application fee had not been paid. I notified Mr. Broughton and he immediatley saw that the bill for the application fee was paid and apologized for the error. Now the fun begins. I called the power company and asked when they would be out to install the proper meter for solar panels. I was informed that no application for a meter to be installed was on file and that I had to submit an application for interconnection. Hmm? No one mentioned anything to me about completing and application or that I had to contact the power company. I completed the PTO (Permission to Operate) form and based on the questions being asked and the information I needed to provide leads me to believe the Solar company was responsible for completing this form and sending the required fee. Ok. Lets not look to for someone to blame, lets just get the proper meter installed. I completed the PTO and submitted it. The power company came out a couple of weeks later and installed the a new meter. Onlyit was not a meter for solar panels. They installed the same new meter but it was the same meter as the meter I already had. I asked them why they didn't put on a solar meter and I was told that I needed to submit a PTO for a SOLAR METER, which is different. And by the way, they have a special person that installs solar meters and a special person to install regular meters. This seemed rather stupid to me. I ask the power comapany rep for the contact info for the solar department and he told he didn't know. I won't name the power company. LADwp. The one good thing the DWP rep did upon arriving to his office was to send an email to contact the proper department at the power company. I assumed he would have just gone about his business and let me flounder. I started on the second application which asked for job site photos. This was to me another indication that the solar installer was suppose to complete this form because Joe Citizen would not know what photos they were required. I did observe that periodically, the workers would take photos, but none were ever sent to me. Now I'm in the middle of August 2026 with fingers, legs, arms, eyes and anything else, maybe the dogs and cats, crossed hoping that this time I will get a meter. The bottom line is I would still recommend AWS SOLAR to anyone, but I'd have to caution them to make sure they get you connected and ALL fees are paid. Because I was dealing with the City of LA and being constantly sent to voice mail and waiting for call backs, this experience was horrendous.

After reinstall, they washed down the panels and confirmed the system was back and running. Both visits were less than a half day each. One big caveat: we've yet to have a heavy rain, so the mounts/penetrations/sealant has yet to be tested for watertightness.

This one star review is merited and should be heeded by others considering adding solar because…read morethere are other options in Southern California where you will get essentially the same product for lower cost, less disruption, and FAR better service. Having spent $50K with Green Hill Solar, the experience was nothing less than shocking. The communication was horrific -- riddled with inaccuracies, split among 5 different "client facing" individuals who did not communicate with one another. Home visits and hard costs continued to increase well beyond what was originally communicated. No effort was made to outline expectations and we were met with surprise visit with loud drilling 6ft under the house, city requirements that escalated the costs, multiple unannounced days on site, moving start dates, inconsistent directives on payment for a massive bill (from "pay upon completion" to "pay invoices as they arrive") and much more. All of this *could* have been managable (although not worth it financially) but the truly shocking last straw was the way the "customer service" personnel spoke to me and to my wife who was working from home, largely via text. We saved all correspondence and offered them to ownership several times, but they never responded to outreach. We could make them available to anyone considering working with this provider. Bottom line -- at a $50K investment level for a straightforward installment, we received worse customer service than we would get a a fast-food restaurant, and escalating costs akin to a major construction project. There are plenty solar providers here in SoCal to choose from -- we strongly suggest finding a resource other than Green Hill Solar. It is a highly irresponsible, unprofessional and unreliable outfit which needs a total overhaul in pricing, protocols, training and likely staffing.

Based on consistent good reviews, I contacted Shelter in August of 2025…read more We had experienced numerous electrical power outages for several years, so I began to investigate possible solutions. What I wanted ideally was a system that would automatically power our home in the event of a power failure. I initially looked at generator systems, but discovered several downsides to that technology. Generators need fuel, which could be be gasoline, diesel, or natural gas. Of these, natural gas was the most attractive, but that would require significant trenching for a new line around the house. In addition, placement of a generator was a problem, due to zoning requirements. Also, gasoline/diesel/natural gas generators have an internal combustion engine, which needs maintenance, like oil changes. The best solution for me was to have a battery backup system installed. This type of system is also known as a "power wall." Shelter recommended a 2-battery system made by FranklinWH (WH stands for Whole House). The batteries are 15 KWH each, for a total of 30 KWH. In our case, this is sufficient to power our home for 24 hours, even during the summer when we are using the central A/C. Other times of the year, 30 KWH would power everything for 48 hours or more. Since installation we have had several power failures, ranging from a few minutes to several hours. In all cases, the backup system kicked in so quickly that didn't even notice. We didn't even have to reset any clocks. When then grid power comes back online, the batteries recharge automatically. Shelter did a great job of understanding what we wanted, and provided an excellent solution. We had a very minor issue that we noticed several months later, and Shelter responded immediately to remedy the issue. I recommend Shelter Roofing and Solar without hesitation.

I cannot say enough good things about Marco. I truly procrastinated on installing solar for a long…read moretime because I had heard so many horror stories about roof damage, leaks, and systems failing. I was extremely hesitant to move forward. From the very first conversation, Marco completely changed that. He has excellent communication skills and stayed in constant touch with me throughout the entire process. Every question I had was answered clearly and honestly, and he walked me through each step so I always knew what to expect. What is usually a stressful and painful process ended up being smooth and surprisingly easy. We started by doing our roof first, and shortly after, Los Angeles was hit with a major storm. Everything held up perfectly, which already gave me peace of mind. After that, we moved forward with the solar installation, and once again another storm came through. The system performed exactly as it should, with no issues at all and no damage to the roof. Marco made the entire experience feel organized, transparent, and stress free. I am so glad I waited until I found the right person to work with. If you are on the fence about solar or nervous like I was, Marco is someone you can truly trust. I would highly recommend him.

I first contacted Marco in early November…read more2025--right in the middle of the year-end rush when everyone (myself included) was trying to get their tax credit in before the deadline. Despite how hectic that time was, he had my system fully installed and running just over a month later, in early December. Beyond the end result, the overall experience was outstanding. If I texted Marco, his average response time was probably around 15 minutes. He answered all of my questions and genuinely made me feel like I was working with a real person, not a faceless big solar company or door-to-door charlatan. His pricing was about average for the market, but the service was easily 10/10. A couple of days after turning the system on, Marco proactively reached out to let me know my battery was showing an error code. He sent someone out and had it resolved within a few hours. That level of attentiveness and follow-through really sets him apart.

We hired this company based on a recommendation from our roofing contractor's project manager, but…read moreunfortunately, they did not live up to that recommendation or the positive reviews we saw online. The scope of work was the removal and reinstallation of our existing solar panel system during a roof replacement. Estimate: Fair pricing. Communication: Quite lacking. It felt like we always had to be the ones initiating contact, even when it came time for them to collect their payment. Service and Workmanship: The removal took one day and the reinstallation took another. We didn't have any issues with the removal, but the reinstallation had several major flaws. Most notably, they reused the original flashings, which were bent and warped. Because of this, our brand-new shingles could be subjected to warping. We pointed out a few visibly damaged flashings at the corners, but we have no way of knowing the condition of the flashings hidden beneath the panels. Considering we just spent $20,000 on a new roof, they really should have asked if we wanted to replace the old flashings with new ones. Now, I am just hoping we don't end up with leaks in a few years. Cleanup: The second major problem was their lack of professionalism at the end of the job. When they finished, they simply walked off. They didn't clean up or pick up their trash, leaving debris all over the roof, roof gutter, and throughout the yard. Overall: I absolutely would not have hired this contractor if I had known how poor the workmanship and customer service would be.
