Solar is pretty confusing to figure out and not simple to competitively shop/price out…read more I had five different companies speak with me about their solar options and Prime Home Solutions was night and day, the best option. Best price and the most knowledgeable. Zero pressure or sales tactics. Installation was straightforward and went as expected. I just past my 1-year mark with the system and it was perfectly sized for my usage. My annual PG&E electricity costs were $24.49 for the 12-month YEAR. There was also the monthly "grid connectivity fee" of about $11 which you pay regardless of having a solar system or not. I worked with Brent. He was extremely knowledgable and experienced. He did not attempt to push me on any of the options he provided. He simply educated, listened, and answered my questions. He gave me lots of space and time to decide with no pressure. I would highly recommend speaking with Brett and Prime Home Solutions. Pros: Knowledgeable. Low pressure. Best pricing of the 5 companies we shopped. Smaller sized company so you're speaking with the same individuals each time who are familiar with your system/house. Cons: I didn't really have any red flags. Communicating back and forth required follow up once or twice. The process took time and was confusing, but Prime Solutions helped to add clarity and walk me through the project.

Everyone was responsive, installers were prompt, accommodating and knowledgable. However, we have since been completely ghosted. No PG&E inspection was done despite multiple attempts to contact the company by both PG&E, and ourselves. Multiple calls and voicemails have been ignored for months. We have not received a call back or any word from Prime Home Solutions. Our next step will be to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau.

I had 4 companies come out and asked them is there a problem. 2 companies quickly looked it over and said we just need to buy more panels. 1 company said here is the problem but gave me a quote but would not explain what needed to be done. Capital City Solar found the problem and explained it to me. Yes it was expensive to fix but they said they could sell me a new system but that would be wasting my money. Had several phone calls to make sure I understood the problem. They never pushed me to buy. Their installers were professional, polite and seemed to enjoy working for the company. I feel if you like working for the company it says something positive for the company. If I have another solar need I will only contact them. They are honest and did not push me to buy from them.

This is just a flat lie from a company that didn't install my system to begin with. Note: my system is both online and producing. When pressed why they would use such a fear-based tactic and that this could be very misleading for anyone less technical, "Brad", or whoever is calling, blamed a bad CRM entry. "Oh uh, have the wrong house - I swear to God this was an accident". Apparently no effort was made to correct this "error" as they called back a year later (prompting this review) with the exact same voicemail. Not a good look guys.

We got estimates for a solar system from a couple companies, and decided to go with ES Electric…read more Besides getting a good feeling about Eric & the crew, I really appreciated that they did not just give us whatever system that their company had come up with for a typical house. They looked at our place and came up with a solution that took advantage of our available space and came in cheaper than the other estimates. Eric was really good to work with, and the system is performing well. I expect to upgrade to some sort of battery system in the next few years, and the system will be able to handle that. Highly recommended overall.

Then I got the bids... for the exact same set up, the other company was $10,000 higher. That made my decision super easy LOL. I went with ES Electric. What a great decision that was... they were so professional, on time... they did all of the permits, even my HOA requirements. Super impressed with all of them. They also monitor my system for me too, making sure it is working at all times. So happy I chose them.

Do not use Epic Energies (www.ThinkEpic.com). They are fine to work with when things go well, but…read moreas soon as problems occur, they are evasive, they lie to you, or just give you the silent treatment. They do not stand behind the quality of their work, or their warrantees, and really, they are thieves. We hired Epic to do a large job (our new-to-us house was a bit of a teardown). They were to replace the roof, the windows, the missing stucco on half the house, and install solar. All this was financed through the PACE program. As part of the project, they originally planned to move our electrical box from the front of the house to the back. This was a $4300 item, small in the scheme of things, but important in the end. Beware the estimate these people give you. They did not come in on budget for any single item. First they replaced the windows, a project they subbed out to Good News Remodeling. Good News gets five stars from us. They were prompt and kept in constant contact with us, and installed in two days. Unfortunately, Epic demanded more money for the windows than they original estimated, because we live in a high fire area, and they quoted us for standard windows. Next they did the roof. Again, they came back to us for more money, because there were three layers of roofing that needed to be removed, instead of just one. Despite this, we were pleased with the work. Then they started on the solar. This went smoothly, at first. It was at this point that they determined that they would not need to move the electrical box for code. Instead, they said would build some structure that would hide the electrical box. So they did not remove the item from our contract. However, they could not install the solar electrical equipment until the stucco was finished. This is when things started going badly. The first day the stucco guys showed up and did a skim coat on the first wall. But then they disappeared. They didn't show up for a week, without explanation. Jeri in Epic's scheduling department couldn't seem to tell us where they were or when they would come back. Eventually, Max, our sales rep, told us they would need more money. They refused to do anything about the electrical box. During this time, Max went through some family issues, and was generally not available to deal with all the myriad problems with the stucco guys. When he got back, he was very anxious about completing the work before the end of the year, or more accurately, he wanted me to sign off on the job before it was completed, so that he could get paid. Epic submitted the completion documents just as soon as the solar was hooked up. But they submitted it for the wrong amount. So I spoke with Max about this. He told me that they will just give us a rebate for the $4300 so that we could hire someone to disguise the hideous electrical box. Max claimed he has a contractor who would do that for me. (Turns out, he didn't). So we signed the documents. After about a month, I asked why we hadn't gotten our rebate yet. Max told me I wasn't due a rebate. But after a bit of arguing, Max remembered our conversation about the rebate, and that I am correct. I start waiting for my check again. Another month passes. On March 5th, Max texts that Epic had prepared the rebate and that they will process the check. On March 19th I ask again. Now I'm told that Parker Daniels had prepared the documents. Must be my fault. I should check in my junk mail. On March 22nd, Parker Daniels finally sends the document. On April 13th, still no check. Max texts on the 16th that it is going to be sent. On April 23rd, I contact Max again. Still no check. I call Epic directly. I'm told to discuss it with Max. As all this is going on, the stucco begins to crack. And each week, it gets a little worse. On May 2nd, I text photos of the cracks to Max and directly to Epic. I talk to some guy at Epic, who promises me that he will talk to the hire ups immediately and call me back within an hour, and they will send out someone to fix everything. He never calls back. The next day, Max says Jeri will call by Monday to schedule a stucco inspection. He tells me to contact Parker Daniels directly. I call Daniels, He does not answer his phone or return my calls. Max says to text him. I do. Tell him the whole story, he says he'll "get with his accounts payable team and see how that was missed. Once the check is placed in the mail I'll send you the tracking information." Surprise, surprise, no followup. No check. No stucco inspection. Not even an apology. On May 7th, Max confessed. He says this is his fault, that he miscommunicated to Epic. So Epic won't pay until they take the money out of his earnings. I haven't heard anything since. Stay away. These people are thieves. They do not honor their warrantees. Their workmanship is lousy. And they treat their customers terribly.

I was contacted by Spartan staff Diego Nuñez after responding to a link survey about adding solar…read more Spartan was the first company to contact me and made an appointment to speak to me via phone since I said I did not need an in person consultation. I was interested in adding panels to my existing older solar roof panels. My panels are working well, but I could use more power. Was also interested on behalf of my daughter who wanted extra panels after adding an EV and hot tub. After a couple of tel/cons with Diego, we determined in both our cases, it would not be worth adding additional panels because our True-ups were not high enough annually to warrant a system purchase. We had an extensive discussion about the fact that there are no more perks or discounts to install solar and things have just gotten more expensive over the last year, with loss of rebates, etc. Diego was very honest that in both of our cases, the cost of upgrading our mutual systems was not worth the money it would cost. I truly appreciated his honesty as he talked himself out of not one job but two. Highly recommend this company for both staff customer service in getting to me quickly, speaking to me extensively twice and Diego's honesty in being upfront about in our case, the bang just not being worth the buck. I actually felt like I could trust the staff and these days, this is important. Thank you, Spartan.

It was probably the most money I ever made in the 30 minutes it took me to get the information I needed and learn about Valley Solar. I had several other solar installers provide me with quotes and some of those were at least twice as much for a similar system. Some companies would not even give me a quote because they did not want to deal with Lodi Electric Utility. Once I contacted Valley Solar in January they responded immediately and I was up and running in March. The system has performed flawlessly producing power and I will break even in another 4 years. Valley Solar is very pro-active and has been out a couple of times to address issues with the system communication function. I did not request these visits, they just called and asked if they could come out and do some upgrades. Pretty impressive if you ask me. Would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them.

And we got a tidy sum from her efforts. So, many thanks Valley Solar.
