    Solar generated so far the last 8 days.
    Jason M.

    I'm giving this project 5 star review because I think it is the best company to go with for quality and a competitive cost. If you go with this company, 100% ask for Mason to be your sales rep. Avoid Eddie at all costs as he won't respond to you after you sign your agreement...Because of this, Management actually switched my contact person to Mason, and I am forever grateful for that. Mason is attentive and he was the best with responding to questions and concerns. And when I had concerns about delays in my project, I would email him and it would be fixed right away. The solar industry is one where many people have a lot of questions, uncertainty in effectiveness, and aren't sure if it's right for them. And people in general don't trust solar companies and sales people. It takes time to complete a solar project from contract to actually generating electricity for the home. For me, I decided to go with solar because the 30% tax credit was ending (and now that I actually see results, it's worth it even without the tax credit). However, since I was in a tight window to get everything completed before December 31st, I was very nervous as to if the project would be done on time. if it wasn't for my persistence, and for Mason's help, I don't think it would have been done Before December 31st and I would have been very upset and lost out on the tax credit. So again, GO WITH MASON at Solar Optimum, you won't regret it. If I get another home, I will 100% use this company again, and would 100% ONLY work with Mason. I also added a picture to show how much solar has been generating for me in just over a week in the middle of December (the worst for sunlight). It's right at optimal generation for this time of year and look forward to no more electric bills.

    Thank you solar optimum for honoring the warranty. I purchased my solar panels seven years ago and they are honoring their warranty. I just had some more work done on my inverter that needed to be repaired and everything is up and running now. Efficient friendly customer service with a fast response time. I highly recommend solar Optimum. I also recommend you purchase your own solar panels if you own your home. After they pay for themselves, they keep on paying you.

    Solar Optimum hit it out of the park for us. Before we started, we had worked with other companies like Sunrun and Project Solar and neither really worked out for us. Solar Optimum is local, got our permits through in a timely manner and got us up and running! We love our Panasonic solar panels and Evervolt batteries. Landon and Davey were in constant contact with us and broke down the pricing and spent the extra time to ensure everything we needed was accounted for. When it came to installing, everyone was super professional and took the upmost care of our home. We are so grateful!

    Do you install Tesla solar panels?

    Why do you charge extra for credit card payments? and how much extra do you charge for using cc?

    Do you guys install on Clay tile roof?

    I have a soft clay roof & got 5 quotes. They all said the same thing. They re-roof with composite, install the panels, then replace the tiles around the panels (called "inlay").… 

    So you clean already installed panels?

    Sorry. We do not offer this service of cleaning solar panels.

    Do you install solar pool heating systems?

    I am just starting to research solar panels and companies. What solar panels do you use? If more than one kind, can you tell us the approximate percentages of each installed in the last 2 or so years?

Unfortunately, despite a lengthy back-and-forth with our insurance company, we received only a modest settlement toward the cost of replacing the entire roof. As a result, my wife spent considerable time researching roofing companies in hopes of finding a reputable, licensed contractor that could work within our budget. While several of the companies she contacted were professional and courteous, we ultimately chose Prime American Roofing--and we are extremely glad we did. Our Project Manager, Jonathan, worked closely with us and provided an estimate that fit our budget. He was friendly, communicative, and always available to answer questions or address concerns. His team handled all of the necessary permits through the City of Pasadena, making the process as smooth as possible. Most importantly, the roofing crew did a phenomenal job replacing our roof. The quality of their workmanship exceeded our expectations, and Jonathan and his team truly went the extra mile to ensure we were satisfied with the final result. I'm including some photographs with this review. We highly recommend Prime American Roofing to anyone looking for a licensed, bonded, reliable, professional, and customer-focused roofing company.

    Substandard finish and no follow-up on a $25,000+ project…read more I hired Prime America Roofing to apply a silicone coating to my flat roof. The project was completed and the roof is sealed, which is the reason this isn't a one-star review, but the standard of craftsmanship fell well short of what a job of this size and cost should deliver. The problems were not isolated; they accumulated across the work, and several caused damage or follow-on issues that I had to resolve myself. The trouble began during application. The silicone sealer dripped onto the ground below the roofline, and I was fortunate to be walking the property at the time, because I was able to wipe the residue away before it set. Had I not been there, it would have dried in place. The application itself was careless: sealer splattered across my skylights (I have the photos to show it), leaving a mess where there should have been clean, deliberate work. Beyond the cosmetic problems, the crew failed to restore key components to their proper positions. The electrical conduits on the roof, which rest on wood blocks, were not returned to their original placement, and as a result the metal conduits became fused directly onto the dried silicone layer. The condensate drainage line for my AC was also left improperly routed; instead of running cleanly from the unit to the drain, it was left hanging, which caused water to back up into the AC unit and ultimately stopped it from working. The detail that best captures the lack of care was my outdoor bathroom sink. The crew used it to clean their painting equipment and left dried silicone lumps caked across the porcelain. It was filthy. The only way I could remove the buildup was to scrape it off with a straight-edge razor. What pushed my rating down further was the absence of any accountability afterward. I notified the job supervisor of these issues more than two weeks ago and have received no response from the company since. A reputable contractor stands behind its work and addresses legitimate concerns; silence after a $25,000+ project is its own kind of answer. I expected professionalism from start to finish: clean application, components restored to working order, respect for the property, and responsiveness when problems arise. What I received instead was sloppy workmanship, preventable damage to my AC system, a cleanup burden left on me, and no follow-up. Two stars reflects a job that was technically finished but poorly executed and poorly supported.

I first contacted a local company, but they weren't very responsive--and I quickly realized I couldn't move forward with my insurance claim without the help of a reliable roofer. That's when I found Final Touch Roofing, and I honestly feel so lucky I did. Ovi and Lia are absolutely the best. Lia, especially, was incredible--always available, always clear, and patient in explaining every step. Dealing with insurance was overwhelming, but Lia and Ovi guided me through the entire process and helped me submit every detail needed. Lia is also one of the most organized and reliable schedulers I've ever worked with. She always let me know exactly when we could talk and what to expect. Their pricing was clear and very reasonable--no surprises. Once construction started, Ovi made sure everything ran smoothly. The team they brought in was respectful, punctual, fast, and cleaned up beautifully once the job was done. This truly feels like a family-run business you can trust. I'll definitely be recommending Final Touch Roofing to everyone I know, and they'll always have my business. 5 stars without a doubt!

All of the roofing contractors other than J&J Roofing advised us to re-roof our entire house. Even though the front half of the roof of a 50 year roof (which was installed before we owned the house and J&J Roofing as not involved) has not lasted anywhere near 50 years, the front side and back side have worn differently. All of the other roofers would not even re-roof just the front half - it was all or nothing. J&J said that they could easily repair the issue without re-roofing and it cost us less than $500 for them to repair it. The repair worked. Almost four years later (and they had told us that at least the front half of the roof had only a few years remaining), at least the front half of the roof needed to be replaced. Since they had been so fair and honest with us and we were pleased with their work, we did not bid out the project - they got it. As they had said before, only the front half of the roof needed to be replaced at this time (with a possible additional ten years on the back half). We own solar panels and they referred us to someone who agreed to remove and replace the panels for almost half the cost that the company which installed the panels would have charged us. While it's not inexpensive to re-roof a house (even half of a roof), we felt their price was fair, they saved us the additional $3,500 that our solar company would have charged, their staff and crew were and always have been very professional and honest. The roof looks wonderful and they coordinated scheduling for the solar panels to be removed and replaced. They collaborated with that business. We recommend J&J Roofing without hesitation.
