Also an individual that was excellent in his knowledge of solar system complete maintenance. I hit a home run with this man. Excellent service and result in trouble shooting and fixing my system, fine tuning it and cleaning the panels as well. Was working at 50% capacity and when he was finished it is perfect 100% again! He is my only go to guy from now on. Fair, honest, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. I have great confidence in him and you should too if your looking for a all around great result!

Five Stars, no question. Professional and courteous from first phone contact onward, which I so…read moreappreciate these days. One man shop, AFAIK with a territory that is oh so Californian in size, he fit me in a couple weeks out and got me back online in a short day. Swapping out two Sunpower inverters for a single SunnyBoy required thoughtful work. Though a bit of a complicated installation on an old landmark Victorian, for Richard, no problem. A pleasure to experience. And the on-line system monitoring capability is a real step up for us. Thanks Richard!

These guys are great! Excellent service, knowlegeable and efficient.

We have been super impressed with the excellence of the units they've installed for us, as well as the diligent, expert technicians they have sent to us over the years. Lucas spent a lot of time with us, explaining various things we asked about. Unexpectedly, he really helped us out by installing a new laundry room fan we had picked up to replace the old one that had fallen from the ceiling. Helpfully, Lucas pointed out that our attic has no fan to pump out excess heat (and it gets hot in the summer!!) He promised to send a quote immediately. We were delighted with his service and awesome communication skills. Lucas is a super star!!

Please do your research and get everything in writing before hiring this company. Based on our…read moreexperience, the company has only been under the current ownership for a few years, which was different from the impression we were given when we hired them. We are currently in a terrible situation and have incurred a significant amount of additional expense. Our home is not currently safe or suitable for us to occupy, and we have been unable to live there. Communication from the company has been extremely disappointing. We have not received meaningful responses directly from the company and have primarily been communicating through the owner's attorney. I strongly recommend doing your due diligence, getting everything in writing, and making sure you fully understand who you are hiring and what is being represented before moving forward. This review is based solely on our personal experience with the company.

I appreciate being taught during the process which made my decision to move forward that much more comfortable. I've priced out other systems where I wasn't really sure what I was even getting.

We met with several companies about having solar installed at our house. All of them were great and…read moreall prices were pretty comparable, but Andrew with Pure Power Solutions provided us with an very comprehensive proposal with two different options, his recommendation and why (and he actually recommended the least expensive option!) He was also the only one to acknowledge our backyard redwood tree and how that would affect the system over a 50 year time period. They handled all permits and dealings with PG&E for a completely stress-free hands off project for me. They kept me updated throughout the whole process and answered my hundreds of (mostly unnecessary) questions. Our system was installed cleanly and quickly, and we couldn't be happier! I would 10 out of 10 recommend Pure Power Solutions.

I am a very happy customer of Pure Power Solutions. 9 years ago, I vetted them against 5 different…read morehighly rated competitors, and found them to be best for us. This was due to very competitive pricing, in depth meetings about our needs, the products and features, where they came from, warranties, how much energy to generate, when we would have the unit paying for itself. Here I am, all this time later, with a system doing exactly what was projected. It's ticking along, beautifully. I had occasion to call, all this time later, because I wasn't getting email updates on efficiency and I couldn't see my display on the unit, as the protective film wasn't removed (my bad) and it had melded to the screen. Gerard gave me his immediate time and went through several steps with me to determine that a connection had come loose at the modem. It was an undertaking, given the unit and wire routing... in the end, it was my error- the display was operable. I was just stoked to see that it's still pumping out the savings, and that I can still get priority assistance. I cannot more highly recommend this company. They are even sending me a replacement display. Love them!

Their estimator was knowledgeable and precise explaining options and what was required The resultant estimate was detailed and transparent. The two electricians were clear, efficient and communicative explaining one project that could not be completed that day. They also completed a clean-up of past gerrymandered wiring. All in all, we are pleased with their work, transparency and definitely for the value received.

I contacted B. Henry's Quality Electric when my solar inverter needed replacement. Even though they…read moredidn't perform that work themselves, they referred me to one of their installers and, in the process, saved me money by bypassing the markup they could have charged. That level of honesty is pretty rare. They could easily have kept the work in-house or added a layer of profit, but instead they focused on what was best for me as the customer. They also followed up several times by email to make sure everything was going smoothly and that I was happy with the outcome. Great customer service and a company that clearly values long-term relationships over short-term profit. Highly recommended.

I had a very complex solar job (remove existing, repair/clean, remove/replace roof, put everything…read moreback, add battery) and First Response was FABULOUS! I interviewed more than 5 other firms and they were standouts even then. First response had to manage through weather delays, roofing delays and a PIA owner (me!) they over delivered. Everything works great, I didn't have to complain once which is a first in many many years. You can't go wrong with First Response

First came heat pumps and an EV. Having our solar system installed was the last step in our…read moretransition to becoming an electric home with its own power source. Along the way we had plenty of time to research rooftop solar and local contractors. First Response Solar stood out from the very beginning. It was clear that they understood why they used each piece of hardware and how these pieces related to each other and to our needs. We chose them over three other proposals and could not be happier! In addition to doing top notch workmanship, Chaz and Dylan are easy to work with. Our system performs exactly as they had described it to us. Obviously it is a big step to invest in a solar roof and we feel that we now have a system that is well designed, perfectly installed and fully operational. We cannot recommend First Response Solar highly enough.

We had backup battery systems installed at two different homes--one in Napa and one in Marin--and…read morehad an excellent experience working with SonoMarin Solar on both. The original solar systems were installed years ago by SolarCraft and Ambrose. When it came time to add a backup battery in Napa, we chose SonoMarin first. That project went so smoothly that we later asked them to install a battery on our older, more complex Marin system as well. Despite the added complexity, they handled both installations efficiently and got everything up and running without drama. Ayelet in the office deserves special mention. She provides near-instant responses to texts and emails, keeps everything moving, and somehow manages to coordinate all the moving parts with ease. If you've ever dealt with solar projects, you know how valuable that is. She had seemingly infinite patience for my never-ending questions, handling them with professionalism and speed. She also helped me apply for relevant rebates and helped interface with the nightmare that is PG&E, making it all look easy. The whole team jumped through hoops to get the system in before the tax break expired. SonoMarin is a small company, localled owned and run by the same people I originally worked with at SolarCraft on our first install years ago, which really shows in the level of care and accountability. Avner and Nick have built a great company. Pricing was competitive--frankly, all three bids we received were in the same range--but the execution and communication set them apart. I would recommend SonoMarin without hesitation.

Amazing in every way!Incredible service and great group of people who love what they do!!win//winread more
