After talking to several companies and obtaining various bids, we went with NW Electric and Solar based on their communication, ability to match our specs/needs, and of course the work they did for our neighbor that we've seen firsthand. We had a relatively large job (a lot of panels to be placed on tile roofing, batteries, a Flex panel, and an EV charger) and they were able to work with us to get everything placed well. Planning, scheduling, delivery, and install all went smoothly with responsive communication throughout. The crew on-site was extremely professional. Half a year later and everything in our system is still running great. Recommended company! read more

These guys rock! I love my system and NWSolar was so helpful in working through snags with PSE etc. They are always responsive when I email them even though it has been years since the install. Definitely the team you want working on your house! read more

I highly recommend Northwest Electric & Solar for a solar and backup battery installation for your home or business. We had them design and install a Tesla solar panel and Tesla Powerwall backup battery system recently. They developed a system design that fits our budget and provides the energy needed for all electrical needs for our home, including charging our two Tesla cars. The Powerwall battery provides energy when the sun goes down and provides a backup power supply in the event of a grid outage. We export our excess power to the grid, further reducing our utility bill and saving excess credits to be used in the winter months when the solar system will not produce as much power. We received our first utility bill since installing the system and saved over $200 (we only had to pay the $24 base charge)! In addition to the solar and battery system, we had them replace our maxed out 200-amp circuit breaker panel with a SPAN panel. The Northwest Electric & Solar installation team was excellent and professional. The installation crew installed the SPAN panel, the 13kw solar system and Powerwall battery backup system in just 3 days. They met every stated deadline on time, and the total expense was exactly as they stated it would be. read more

Northwest installed Tesla Powerwalls for us in 2025. There was some issues that we just got dealt with this month, May 2026. A technician Paul was sent out to troubleshoot. He was a polite, professional, caring, hardworking, problem solving guy. Was impressed by his work ethic and knowledge for such a young guy. He was able to hear out our problems/issues and dealt with it on head on. Cheers and thank you Paul. Your attitude is everything and it shows. read more

These folks are simply fabulous. Our project involved rerouting the electric service and installing a boatload of solar panels while the roof was being replaced. They coordinated with the local electric utility to temporarily shut off power and then to install the net meter, weaving their work in with the roof work seamlessly. Everyone involved in the project from Northwest Electric and Solar was totally professional, highly skilled and extremely knowledgeable. There are various contractors in the area that focus primarily on solar installations and also do electrical service, but if you are looking for a company that is outstanding in both areas, look no further. For your own peace of mind, get three quotes. Just make sure that one of them is from Northwest Electric and Solar. read more

I had a Gateway 3V and Universal Wall Charger installed. This was part of the Foundation Series Cybertruck purchase. The equipment was in the price of the truck, and I paid for installation seperately. Tesla selected Northwest Electric & Solar as the installer, and referred them to me. The Gateway seperates my house from the grid so that the truck can provide power when the grid is down, and the gateway also provides the neutral. The Universal Wall Charger is a two-way device, that can either charge the truck or enable the truck to power the house. Northwest Electric & Solar did a great job. They kept me apprised throughout the process, and notified me when the installer, Ian C. was on the way. Ian set my expectations for what would happen during the installation, and answered all my questions throughout the process. He coordinated with PUD#1 of Snohomish to cut off and restore the grid power, and coordinated with the inspector. His work was professional, and left the work areas cleaner than when he started. I recommend Northwest Electric & Solar, and will use them in any future jobs. read more

See all

Northwest was great. From the very start, very professional quick communication about the quote. Sent them photos of the breaker box and area and they got back to me very quickly. Ari came out on time and got everything set up and installed within an hour. Very happy with the process from start to finish! read more

Northwest Electric and Solar - Tesla EV Charger installed on the garage wall. - Electricians Near Me - Kenmore, Washington

I had a Tesla wall charger installed. Ari was the technician who did the install. I'm extremely satisfied with the work. read more

We had this company to change the electrical service panel, install the EV charger and replace the mast on the roof. They are an absolutely fantastic team, with good management. The main manager Derek and the project manager Jacob are fantastic, with responsibility and being on time to finish the project. Jacob tried several times to have a connection with PSE for an early appointment and finally he succeeded. We are very grateful to know them and the price was reasonable and the quality of work is amazing. We were lucky to work with them. December/2023 Sophie/Andy read more

Update 5/9 - just to clarify since one of the business owners replied. The work wasn't in April, it was started in the past by Northwest Electric and Solar and then the electricians that were sent couldn't handle the work. I just had the time to write a review after dealing with the work they caused. Three different people came through who did a "very poor job across the board" and put according to a new electrician. I also want to add that NW Electric and Solar didn't catch that several switches and lights/fans were incompatible so we have to replace several hundred dollars worth of items, not to mention the drywall fixes that will come from it. Super upsetting and a lot of wasted money. read more

I was looking for someone to install Tesla wall charger and cane to know about them through Tesla. They were very responsive and provided the quote online, by looking at the photos of my breaker. They scheduled the visit promptly and did the work perfectly. Ari did a good job. He also cleaned up the work area afterwards. Cost of service seemed little bit more, but I haven't received any quote much lower than this, and none were providing quote online. Overall, I recommend their service. City inspection is pending. I hope it will pass. If not, I will update here read more

Just had our Tesla solar panels and Powerwall inspected; the inspector was very, very impressed with the quality of work. I told him about Jason L. (team lead on our project) and his care/attention to detail every step of the way. NW Electric & Solar's team arrived to the minute daily. They really moved as they attacked the project and progressed steadily, even to the untrained eye. They always had time to answer questions or explain things as they proceeded. I wish all local contractors had their level of skill and attention. Daily cleanup was so fastidious that they left no evidence of being on-site. VERY IMPRESSIVE COMPANY!!! read more

Northwest Electric and Solar - Tesla panels hard at work! - Electricians Near Me - Kenmore, Washington

I contacted quite a few places online to install the Tesla Wall Connector (using the list recommended by Tesla). They responded to my inquiry in 2 hours on a Sunday and gave the best prices while others took days to respond. The electrician Jake was very nice and patient. I observed him the whole time and he answered many questions about the charger and the panel and even general questions about electric work. It took him about an hour and he set everything up for me. 2 other places I contacted somehow asked me for the picture of the "main panel" because they thought my panel was a sub-panel. I had to research online and told them it was a split-bus panel and pointed out to them where the main switch was. Another place quoted me with 50A breaker instead of 60A because they didn't have it in stock. Anyway, Northwest Electric & Solar didn't have any questions for me and everything was easy and smooth. No sales tax in WA for installing an EV charger right now and they didn't need me to sign any form for this. Our friends used them for the solar panel and recommended them to us. I definitely recommend NW Electric and Solar for your EV charter installation! read more

The owner, Jeff, is amazing! He took my phone call while he was off site, in the middle of a job, and he offered to help me with a technical issue when I was ready... As it happened, I wasn't finally ready until Saturday came around, so I reached out to him, not expecting follow up from him until Monday. Instead, not only did Jeff follow up with me within minutes on a Saturday, but he followed up again after that to be sure I had ordered the correct electrical adapter from Tesla so I would be good to go and ready to start charging when our Tesla arrives. Thank you, Jeff! You rock, sir. read more

Parker and Jeremy do top notch work, best electricians I've had the pleasure of watching work. Absolutely beautiful wiring work for a main panel. Few will notice or see, but you can't not appreciate how meticulous it is and how much attention went into it. read more

Had electrical work (EV charger, transfer switch) with Ari. Whole process from estimate to scheduling was easy and painless. Ari was great and made sure we had everything straight on our transfer switch. Fantastic service! read more

Chancie came on time and took him less than two hours to fix my Tesla wall charger. He was amazing, knew why he was doing and very professional. I didn't need to worry at all because he set everything up from start to finish and made this whole process way too easy. Thank you NW Electric and Solar. read more

Northwest solar and electric were the local team that installed my Tesla solar panels and powerwall. They were simply fantastic. The made sure to communicate to me clearly what was needed, how things would proceed, how any hurdles we would run into would get resolved. And we ran into hurdles, (nothing to do with them or their team), and they were communicated, prioritized, and addressed with professionalism. Their teams that worked on my house were skilled craftsman and electricians always made sure the work exceeded expectations and I was happy with what they had done. Seriously it was a pleasure working with them. Don't hesitate to choose them for any project you have. It's really hard to find this level of skill in residential services around Puget Sound at the moment read more

The road to solar started in January for me, spending many hours reading up on the different panels available on the market and getting proposals from five local solar companies. Ultimately, I ended up going with NW Solar and Electric because they were quick and efficient on top of being super responsive to my questions and needs. I worked with Dane at the start and Carlo took over as project manager. After the contract was signed, they were able to fit me into their installation schedule within days. Everything went off without a hitch and we passed inspection with flying colors. I can't be any more pleased. The panels look great and are working as expected! read more

Northwest Solar was one of four bidders I originally contacted. All were quite professional, but I really liked the balanced approach to how many panels to use and where to install them. The installation was excellent...the Labor and Industries inspector called it one of the finest installations he had ever inspected. The installation team was friendly and helpful. Bravo! read more

Northwest Electric and Solar is one of the most professional and organized companies we have done work with, highly recommended!

Highly recommend this company for your solar needs! The initial call was great with no pressure to purchase. An initial quote is provided by using Google images of your house and your electric bill from the kWh usage. They outline the system and panel options you have in an easy to read format. From there the project manager comes out (wearing a mask) to walk through specifics of the project and he answered my questions. They also take drone photos of your home to ensure the system geometry is accurate. We scheduled a day for the install and the team came out and knocked it out in 8 hours! They were all friendly, wearing masks and cleaned up after themselves. It looks great and we are excited to minimize our carbon footprint! read more

In response to the comment--in addition to investigating the burning smell we asked for a quote to install bathroom fans. Never heard a response and my husband was following up before seeing the charge for this visit. Similar to not knowing what the charge was for the visit (until we noticed it on our credit card statement a week ago) we never did get the quote. Needless to say not interested in contacting this place again. read more

They installed solar panels for us. They provided a detailed plan, showed up on time, and did a beautiful job that passed the city inspection. They were engaged and responsive throughout the whole process. We had a great experience. read more

Northwest Electric and Solar was referred to me by a trusted friend who knew one of the owners from high school back in the day. I would say cost wise the price was premium (I was a little shocked at the hourly) but they clearly know what they are doing and you aren't getting an electrician that cuts corners. Not only can they do very advanced stuff, but Josh who came to my house I actually spoke with quite a bit as he was doing his work and can tell he is a knowledgeable electrician who has been doing this a while and understands I didn't want shortcuts done. Was pleased with their work and will look at them for other electrical things I want done. read more

I'm on a HOA board for a 129 unit apartment building in downtown Seattle. We've been struggling to get EV chargers for our assigned spaces for a few years now. Finally we discovered that DCC-9 energy management systems are the ideal solution for our building. DCC9 allows the HOA to stay out of any matters relating to billing and the cost of electricity is applied directly to the residents SCL bill. Our plan was to hire a contractor to drill the necessary concrete holes and install conduit between our electrical room and garages, and then allow individual unit owners to install a DCC-9+EV charger in their charging space I reached out to NWES and they sent Jeff to our building. Jeff was quickly able to asses the feasibility of our plan, and sent me a quote within less than 24 hours of his visit. Unlike other companies, NWES didn't try and upsell, but rather just focused on giving us exactly what we wanted. The install happened around 6 weeks after we signed. They handled all the permitting, concrete drilling, and installed an EV charger that we provided at a reasonable price. The workmanship was A+ I'd gladly recommend NWES for a stress free EV install. read more

Northwest Electric and Solar just recently installed solar panels on my roof. It was a very positive experience from start to finish. The explanation of the different brands available, the amount of "power" they will generate was informative to my decision and the installation process went fast and smooth. I wish all contractors were as organized and communicative... It has been fun to look at my app and see how the panels are producing. I am so happy to have done this for the earth, and do not hesitate to highly recommend this company. read more

Micah from Northwest Electric installed an EV charger for my house in Kirkland and did an awesome job - he completed the work quickly and it passed inspection easily. Communication with the company was good. I prefer using emails over phone calls and they were great about replying to my questions quickly. Highly recommended. read more

NW Electric and Solar recently installed a solar system for our home. We were very pleased with the ease of the overall process and the professionalism of the entire team. The onsite installation crew was very respectful and protective of our home/property and we are already exceeding the estimated projected savings of our solar system. Would definitely recommend NW Electric and Solar. Herb B. read more

I highly recommend NW Electric and Solar for a residential solar install. We got our solar panels installed a year ago and these folk were great to work with. We had 6 different companies give us bids. Only NWES and Artisan sent actual techs who got measurements from the roof so they could give a reasonable estimate on what kind of solar production we could expect. Everyone else just sent salesmen. We worked with Bret throughout the process of getting a bid and he was great. Very knowledgeable and willing to answer all my questions. He never once tried to up-sell me, and in the end we were very happy with the bid. We liked the price and felt confident we were getting the right system for our needs. The actual install went very well and when SCL repeatedly failed to show up to put in our new meter Bret went to bat for us and got them to get their ass in gear. A year in we couldn't be happier. read more

I recently purchased a home in Bellevue and the inspection suggested we replace our outside meter, and move and upgrade the panel. Due to those issues I contacted NW solar to come out and give a bid to possibly rewire the house or at the very least fix the noted issues. I had previously used NW solar with my old home and was happy with the work so they were the first electrician I called. I don't recall the gentleman that came out for the bid but the entire interaction was odd. First he was sort of taking shots at the state of the house and the obvious remodel that needed to be done. Secondly he seemed really disinterested in the work and didn't really offer any solutions on what could be done other then saying the entire house needed to be gutted or saying they couldn't do anything. The oddest thing was at the end where the guy just sort of walked off and seemed really perplexed at the idea of getting me an estimate. Needless to say I never heard back and didn't get an estimate. The entire ordeal was just odd. Since that time I've had 2 different electricians come out. Both were very professional, came up with solutions and ways to work around some of the challenges with the house, and got a proposal put together and emailed over in a timely manner. I don't think that's too much to ask. In other words the exact opposite of my experience with NW solar. This review is not meant to slam NW solar. Like I said I have used them in the past and was happy with the work that was done. Perhaps I got this guy on a bad day, or they are too busy and they can pick and choose jobs. Or maybe he was annoyed because my real estate agent couldn't get us in the house right away and we had to wait 20 mins. Who knows. The whole thing was just different I guess is a polite way of putting things. read more

Great service and knowledge. Took all my requirements and questions seriously. Great installation crew. Highly recommended.

Northwest Electric and Solar responded quickly to my inquiry regarding a Tesla wall charger installation. The communication with their office staff from the start to the finish, including the online estimate answered every question that I had. The electrician showed up on time and did an outstanding job! I am pleased with the results and would recommend these guys to anyone that needs to have a Tesla wall charger installed. read more

I had my electrical panel replaced and solar panels installed by two different work crews from NW Electric and Solar. They inspired my confidence and I found them to be professional and highly competent. I'm afraid I pestered them with my many questions and they were always patient and helpful with their answers. I have referred them to a close family member which is indicative of the regard with which I hold them. Great job! read more

NW Solar was recommended to us by Tesla for the installation of our wall charger. Initially, it was okay as they respond quickly to our inquiries. We sent in photos and measurements and was given an estimate, afterwards, they scheduled a technician to come out. Jeff was the one that came in. It was bad experience and he was difficult to deal with. First, he kept insisting we got a good deal for the estimate we received as if it was up to him we would be charged $300-400 more. Second, he was insisting we don't install and return the wall charger, and just install the dryer outlet for the same price we were quoted for. He barely did anything during the visit and only stayed for about 15mins. Later that day, we received a phone call from him and was asking us to sell "his customer" our 14-50 adapter because Tesla ran out of stock. We said no and felt like he was out of line to ask us this. We still opted to sign the contract later that day since Jeff had already come out to check everything. During the installation day, a different technician came in, which was Nick. He was very nice and understand that he was just doing his work. He told us that he will require more materials since it's more than 15ft like what was stated in the job. He then called Jeff to inform him of the situation. He also informed us that he would need to come back next week since he doesn't have enough materials and need another person to come in. However, Jeff now wants more money than what was stated in the contract. We agreed as we understand because of the additional materials and man power. Next week comes, and Nick was the only one that came in. He was able to finish the job by himself. Good for him! But after the job was completed, we were still billed for this additional materials and man power, which obviously no additional man power occurred. We called Jeff regarding this and he insists that the price is right even if we agreed that the additional cost was to cover material and another technician. He told us that he said from the very beginning that it would be more, but his words were "if it was up to me I would have charged you more", nothing that says you need to pay more. They should've changed what was in the contract if that was the case. He also insists we lied during the whole inquiry phase. First of all, we didn't lie. We don't do this for a living to know how exactly it needs to be installed to measure it properly. Second, he came out to our place. Why the hell did he not do the measurements himself, so from the very beginning before even signing the contract, we could've already fixed the issue. He is lazy and all he did was walk around the house and go through our Tesla merch and sell it to other customer. Third, the agreed additional cost was to cover materials and additional tech, since no additional tech came out, why are we still paying for this. It's not like Nick would be paid twice for the supposed 2 person job he did by himself. All in all, bad experience and would not recommend. I'll be complaining to Tesla as well, and hopefully they get removed from their approved installer list. The only good experience was Nick, and I hope he's not getting mistreated by this company. read more

Very solid team. I was able to describe the job (ev charger install) with a few pictures & an email. They make a bid & I gave a deposit over the phone. We set up an install time. They confirmed the day before- which was a Sunday. It was a tricky install- wiring through a hole in the concrete floor but they got the job done on schedule & budget. Nothing but goodness. Thanks James. read more

We had a EV charger installed in our garage. The interaction with Northwest Electric and Solar was great from start to finish. They came out the next day to install, and were done within a few hours. Their price was far better than other quotes I received, and their quality of work was even better. read more

We recently had a 10 kW system installed on our house and these guys made it so easy. I got bids from 4 different companies, all were very professional and great to interact with. NW Electric and Solar was the 4th that I spoke with, and they were so responsive and great at explaining everything. I didn't really need the solar education by the time that I spoke to them, and they honored that by jumping straight to the point. I emailed a picture of my electrical panel, they came by and did a quick light read on our roof and sent me a proposal in the same day. They were more competitive than the other companies for the same system, and could fit us in earlier on their schedule. When it came time for installation and electrical panel work, they were very flexible with me when we had to stay home with sick children and moved the install date out a couple of days. Every person on the team we interacted with was just awesome. We're already getting more bids from them for other electrical work because they just make everything so easy. I highly recommend NW Electric and Solar. read more

Great team to work with. Very fast and prompt service. They know the stuff very well!!!

NW Electric and Solar was recommended to us by Tesla to put in the outlet to charge the car. They did not come out to do an estimate, but had us measure and send pictures of our garage. We had the appointment for several weeks. The appointment was a few days before we took delivery of the Tesla. My husband took the day off work to be here for the electrician. No one showed up. My husband emailed them and they replied that they had a guy call in sick and forgot to let us know. They wanted to reschedule, but after the delivery of the Tesla. We called Tesla and were quickly given another referral to Seahurst Electric and they came out right away. When we did not respond to the email from Northwest Electric and Solar saying they forgot about us, we never heard form them again. read more
