    We kicked the idea of solar around for two or three years. We finally decided to go with Sunrun…read moreSolar this Spring. No high pressure and I liked that the solar panels came with two batteries so we could enjoy the solar electricity 24 hours a day. The people at Sunrun changed out our electric breaker box, it was forty years old, just before they installed the solar panels and the two batteries. They were quick and efficient. Four installers came just after 7 a.m. Two on the roof and two on the electrical. I was ready to get into solar power! Then came the news that while they completed the installation before the end of July, we couldn't use the solar panels until first the city inspected and then Edison. They told us that could take until the end of September. We were not expecting that. Our monthly electric bill has reached over $400 a month during the Winter and Summer. The Solar was intended to keep our electric bill at just the monthly cost to Sunrun. I worked in the management side of construction for a few years so I'm familiar with how inspectors can really slow down any project. In my time building fast food restaurants and medical centers I learned how a smart contractor can help inspectors choose your job to inspect over another one. We never had to wait more than a day for any inspection. So, hearing Sunrun would take two months to get our solar inspected and running is very disappointing. If I were starting over again, we would very likely spend more time with their competition to find not just quick construction but getting to use the solar panels in more reasonable time. So Sunrun, you went from 5 out of 5 stars to maybe 3. If the solar is turned on early, I'll improve that rating. If it takes longer then it may go to 2 stars.

    I can't begin to tell of the frustration and expense Sunrun has been for me. Their customer service…read moreis appalling. I've been lied to repeatedly, put off, delayed, and they even asked me to pay about $20k for something which they finally admitted they KNEW was their responsibility.

I asked if I was…read morerequired to talk to them because of some existing contract because the lady makes it sound like I'm required to talk to her. So then she says "I'm sorry you can't be nice." Hahaha.. ridiculous. So I call sunrun to try to report her and the first person just hangs up on me. The second time I call, I ask to talk to a manager right away and they forward me to a line that has no one on the other end. I would never do business with this company in a million years and strongly suggest that no one else do business with them either. If this is any indicator of the level of service you will get, then I feel sorry for anyone who actually does business with this company. Follow up: to the rep that commented, I have zero confidence that whoever I report the info to won't just release that information to the tattooed sales rep that came to my door. I have her on ring but that would expose my house. Also, I tried to reach out already, twice, and couldn't get through, wasting my time. I'm not wasting any more with a company I won't do business with.. just train your people better and create more accountability as you clearly have institutional problems and likely a culture that fosters this type of behavior.

Months after the battery was installed I had extra solar panels installed with a lease. As of now the city permit has not been signed off. I called SunRun 1/202026 and spoke with Leonardo. I explained to him that after waiting months my permit hasn't been signed off. He put me on hold to investigate. When he returned he told me there was a problems with all 3 of my installations. He also told me that I purchased my extra panels when I purchased the Tesla Battery which isn't true. My solar is supposed to be warrantied for 25 years and the battery 10 years. I received and email to docusign for charges of $561 for technicians to come and investigate whats wrong with my system. Next I'll be notifying the Better Business bureau.

    Back in 2008 after the FBI raided Bernie Madoff Industries, LLC, I firmly believe that Sunrun Solar…read morethought they got a deal hiring some of their former accountants. This is the only way I can explain the accounting practices Sunrun uses in their billing department. Each year with the "resolution fee" or "top up fee"--the mysterious charge that customers get annually based on "overproduction" or that amount of energy produced that is above what was calculated by Sunrun. That energy that came from the sun free of charge from nature, you the customer are now on the hook for--you'd think it's a good thing to make more of something that is necessary--you'd think there would be some sort of reward for that. Not so much. Every year this happens in addition to the normal monthly charge. They won't tell you about this during the sales pitch. I recently sold my house and paid my Solar lease off--to the tune of around $24,000. That should have been the end of it. You'd think that once you request a payoff amount, when you get that amount from a business that's it, done deal. Like when you trade off your car, right? Not so much with Sunrun. I was charged an additional $400 a month after paying my lease off. Their explanation? There were delays and errors in the beginning of our lease (8 years ago) that weren't factored into the lease payoff we received. I've concluded that there's nothing I can do to get my money back so I'm going to pay it forward with my words. I wouldn't recommend Sunrun or any solar lease for that matter to anyone. Sunrun's accounting practice are well below acceptable standards at best, criminal possibly in other cases. They're aware of this and don't care to fix it. This is just the Solar side of the scam--the electric company is just as bad. CONSUMERS BEWARE!!!

This is the worst company you can choose to go with for your solar needs. The customer service is poor they handle situations even worse. The communication is horrible.

We were fortunate to have Ruben G. as our Account Manager.  Ruben was professional, pleasant and knowledgeable -- carefully listening to my questions and concerns and also sharing knowledge so I could better understand the phases of installation.

So I have 10 panels that arent' working, and a monitoring system that isn't working. I've been going back and forth with them for well over five weeks to get it resolved. They've said the company that manufactured my panels (apparently an in-house brand that is no longer operating) is out of business, so they've been "trying to secure panels with the proper wattage" for over a month. No update as of today. It's really frustrating that I have these problems, a warranty to cover it, and it's not being taken care of in a timely fashion. Between a pool, an EV and five humans in my house, those 10 panels do a lot of the work, and now I'm just eating the cost. I have expressed that I'm frustrated (especially because they never call me--I have to follow-up weekly to get them to talk to me), but it just seems like they care to do anything about it. It's just a "we're still waiting". Make some calls, secure the pipeline for the panels, and replace my panels, please. Next step if we cannot move forward in the coming week will be the better business bureau.

Since the cleaning the panels have been much better performing especially after these past few weeks of misting and rain, about 25% higher output. I didn't think much of it but I get now it's worth doing to get the most out of the panels. Overall a very good response and experience with OC specifically for this issue.

Their pricing was competitive, and their substantial warranty sealed the deal. Highly recommend them if you're considering solar!

Dan later answered additional questions I had then adjusted quote. The installer, Carlos, looked at the actual site conditions then discussed various options (like spacing of posts, how far to set posts from edge of patio cover, where to put downspouts, etc.) with me beforehand. Every day, Carlos would keep me updated as to the work being done. Their electrical, Mike, installed the lights, outlets and controller exactly where(& how) I wanted them. It was not some "cookie cutter" install off a pre-set plan. Things were installed the way my family & I wanted. Brittany in office kept me updated on permitting process, scheduling, inspection, etc. Initially had company install a pair of attached to house, solid (& insulated) patio covers (at kitchen & by living room). Family was so pleased with finished patio covers that we had Rooms come back and install a 24' x 13' standalone, solid, insulated patio covers outside bedrooms. Carlos made all 3 patio covers blend together. Mike wired all the lights (8 in the initial patio covers & 8 more in the standalone patio cover) so that all are controlled be a single dimmer switch. Needed to have some concrete work done under the patio covers and nearby. Rooms' recommended concrete people, James Austin Concrete, did excellent work and coordinated with Rooms for minimum disruption to patio installations. Initially called 6 companies (all local 4 star+ on yelp) for quotes. Rooms was 1 of 2 that was willing to go through the permitting process with the City. A 3rd wouldn't give me a quote because I wanted the patio covers to be permitted. The other 3 companies said that because the existing wood, open lattice patio covers had been permitted (in 1989), a new permit was not needed. Don't believe them. Big difference between open lattice wood patio covers and solid, Alumun patio cover. Plus requirements change over time. Turned out that the required dimensions for the posts' concrete footings almost doubled in size (in all 3 directions). Getting a permit means everything is built to meet City requirements. Only downside is long wait (13+ weeks) for City to approve each of the 2 permits. Several neighbors have already asked about Rooms. Even the city's building inspector asked for Rooms contact info. He wants a patio cover(s) for his place and was impressed by the work Rooms did for mine.
