    David Y.

    Truly Exceptional Service from Start to Finish and Beyond! Sunlight Electri-Cal Solutions absolutely deserves the praise. I found them while researching solar installers certified to work with Powerwall 3 systems, and I was impressed by the fact that every review they had on Yelp was five stars and they don't even pay for Yelp advertising. That alone caught my attention. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I reached out through their website in late July last year and got a reply within 24 hours. That level of responsiveness continued through the entire process.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Alessandro was my initial contact. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. Even though I was still shopping around (including talking to Tesla and another local solar company), Sunlight gave me the best price and fastest timeline. No sales pressure, just honest communication. Originally, I just wanted two Powerwalls added to my existing solar setup, but eventually decided to include a SPAN smart panel as well. They recommended only installing one battery but to me that wouldn't have been cost effective if later on down the line I were to add a second battery. (Looking at it now, I could have probably added a 3rd battery for the amount of storage that would generate this Summer). Their pricing remained competitive even with the upgrade, and they were very transparent when it came to costs and tradeoffs. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Alessandro handled a lot of the coordination through text and email, which made things super convenient. He was available late in the evening and even some weekends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Carlos, who leads operations, came for a second check and planned out the installation in detail, including how to meet the city's strict code requiring a heat sensor tied to a smoke alarm near the batteries. His clever routing minimized wall damage and kept everything tidy. The full installation was completed in about 6 weeks, including city inspection. PG&E's approval was the only bottleneck, but even during that waiting period, [[HIGHLIGHT]]Carlos stayed in touch with weekly updates.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Installation was handled by Isaac and his team, and they did a fantastic job, which consisted of clean wiring, attention to detail, and they even impressed the city inspector with some above-and-beyond touches like the dual outdoor shut-off boxes. Even more impressive was the post-install support. A few weeks later, after a SPAN firmware update caused communication issues with the Powerwalls, Carlos worked directly with SPAN customer service behind the scenes to resolve the problem. It took some time, but he stayed on top of it and only looped me in when absolutely necessary. That kind of follow-through is rare. I also had them replace my NEMA plug with a Tesla Wall Connector later on. There was a mix-up with the unit (a non-Tesla version was initially installed), but Carlos made it right immediately. He issued a refund and sent Isaac back out quickly to swap it, no delay, no excuses. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What really sets Sunlight Electri-Cal apart is how they treat you after the job is done. They don't disappear once the check clears. Their communication is fast, clear, and consistent.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It truly feels like they treat you like a long-term customer and not just a job ticket. I've dealt with other companies that go dark once the work is done, where getting a reply is like pulling teeth. Not here. These guys operate like a small, tight-knit team that cares about doing right by their customers. Sunlight Electri-Cal Solutions exceeded my expectations. I'll continue to use them for future electrical and solar work and recommend them without hesitation. They earned every bit of their 5-star rating.

The many moving parts to our residential solar plus battery system, including the various entities, such as PG&E, Tesla, City inspectors, and the financial backers we opted to use all progressed seamlessly and, for us effortlessly, thanks to hard working individuals behind the scenes. In particular, Skyler could not have been more helpful, managing our project and acting as a point of contact. Others included David in sales who demystified the process, Varon who coordinated with the utility to ensure we met all requirements, and Gino, who collaborated with Maxwell Power (formerly HDM Renewable Finance), the clean-energy company that helped finance our residential system. On site, the design and install team did a great job keeping things simple. The entire system, including battery and thirteen panels, was installed according to Ramiros's expert design within just four hours. Good quality hardware was used to tie to the roof, which was inspected by our roofer and given a big thumbs up for not causing problems. But even before that, David our site survey tech, gave us the sense that all would proceed well, as he collected necessary data by drone, and made a favorable first impression with his personable approach. Toward the end of the multi-month process, which included time to get a new roof installed, we passed city inspection with YES tech, Dario, an extremely courteous young man, present to ensure we made it through that last step and PTO (permission to operate). YES has an excellent and well-deserved reputation because of these people and others who worked on our behalf. The company can do better automating some of the process, and to be fair, they say they are working on transitioning to a CRM software solution for this purpose. But, I can say that over a period of several months, I had excellent communication with many helpful people. Skyler in customer service was my primary contact and that made all the difference. My thanks to YES for helping us make this wonderful and complex project a reality. We love our new YES-backed system and look forward to working with the company again in the future.

I can't say enough good things about the team, especially Andy, Carter, and Manny. From the very beginning, Andy was professional, responsive, and genuinely committed to finding a solution. He took the time to explain what was going on with my older system and walked me through the repair options without any pressure or sales tactics. Carter and Manny handled the installation schedule and repair work, and their knowledge and experience were immediately obvious. My solar system is over a decade old, and many companies would have simply tried to sell me a completely new system. Instead, they carefully diagnosed the problem, sourced the right equipment, and got my existing system operating again. Their attention to detail, workmanship, and pride in their work were impressive. What stood out most was the customer service. Every question was answered, communication was excellent throughout the process, and the entire team treated my home with respect. It's rare these days to find a company that combines technical expertise with genuinely outstanding customer care. The system is now producing power again, and I'm thrilled to see my solar investment back in action. If you have an older solar system that needs repair, or if you're looking for a company that truly stands behind its work, I highly recommend Your Energy Solutions and their entire team. Thank you all for your professionalism, honesty, and dedication. Five stars well deserved!

Sometimes she would call to give me a message only to realize that she had called the wrong customer. Did not enjoy working with her. Finally, Kara engaged and we got the Permission to Operate about two months after the install.

He offered no apology and no clear explanations about his actions. Free advice: if you are not interested in the job, just say so politely. Don't be rude, discourteous, and unprofessional.

Not only did they offer high-quality equipment and strong expertise, but their pricing was highly competitive and well below several of the other bids we received, which immediately caught our attention. Like many homeowners in California, we were trying to get our solar and Enphase backup battery installed before the end-of-2025 rebate deadlines. Sierra was absolutely slammed with new contracts at the time, yet they still worked incredibly hard to try to get us online before the cutoff. Unfortunately Mother Nature had other plans and some inclement weather delayed the final steps, but we genuinely appreciated that the company prioritizes safety for their crews rather than rushing risky work. That actually gave us even more confidence in the company. From the very first conversation through final activation, the entire process was smooth, organized, and professional. Every person we interacted with was knowledgeable, responsive, and clearly cared about doing the job right. Francis was our initial point of contact and helped us scope the project and walk through multiple system options and pricing. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient while we evaluated what made the most sense for our home. Alex, our lead project manager, was fantastic throughout the process. He was always quick to respond to emails and texts, answered every question we had, and took the time to educate us on how the system works so we felt confident using it. Carlos and Francisco handled the installation and did an outstanding job. They were professional, skilled, and communicative, and the installation itself was impressively efficient and clean. Blair helped bring the system online and walked us through the hardware components and operation once everything was up and running. And behind the scenes, Symone and Gianna in client care and administration kept everything organized and communicated updates promptly, which made the whole process feel seamless. Overall, the experience was excellent from start to finish. High-quality equipment, a skilled team, and outstanding communication every step of the way. We're extremely happy with our solar and battery system and would absolutely recommend Sierra Roofing & Solar to anyone considering going solar.

So, when I moved into a new home without solar I called them again. They also did a great job with our new Enphase solar system, including backup batteries, and an EV charger. The team led by Alex Padilla, with Carlos and Francisco, were great to work with. Carlos and Francisco worked in very hot conditions and still got the job done quickly and accurately. One of the things I love about Sierra installing solar is that they are also roofing experts. They are very careful about the roof integrity. Plus, they route the wiring through the attic so there are no ugly wires visible on the rooftop ... just clean, neat solar panels. Never hire a solar company that isn't also a roofing company. By coincidence, just days after going live we experienced a grid failure. The backup batteries kicked in so fast we hardly noticed that we had lost grid power!

We needed to add panels because we purchase an EV and needed more solar to offset PG&E. The impeccable experience started with Art the consultant, he gave 4 scenarios and explained in detail what each means and provided detail report including all the tech details and break even timing. To be honest, it was too much for me, I really just wanted pricing and how long it takes to install haha but was good to know he has such knowledge and I was confident he is looking out for my best interest. Then we had Patrick the PM, arrived for site inspection on time and courteous and explained the whole process. Then come the impressive installation team Luis, Alberto and Kevin. The 3 arrived on time and with smiles, just overall a great vibe from them. Luis walked me through the installation plan and gave a few choices taking into consideration aesthetics of the house and then got to work. 4 hours later, clean line, fine craftsmanship and symmetrical matching placement from last system is in place and ready to tangle with PG&E (attaching some photos) I really really can't recommend any higher to go with Clean Solar on your solar projects.

Btw I was going to bump this review to a 4 but working with Nick we decided on 5.** We had a complicated full house renovation this year and signed with Clean Solar for either the Tesla tiles or solar panels and we ended up choosing solar panels + Tesla power walls. I want to give special thanks (and the only reason why I didn't give a 0 star) and appreciation to the members listed as they deserved beyond 5 stars Bill, Nick, Jeremy, Rodger, Louis, Kevin, Albert, Alberto, Carl (CEO). Bill was amazing and helpful in explaining the process and helping us secure the initial funding. You are probably wondering why I am giving this solar company a 3 star. Well it takes 1 bad apple to ruin a team and this is the case. A three day project ended up taking 3+ weeks & we understand that the workload is extremely busy this time of year. However when 1 person is acting unprofessional, crossing the line, asking homeowners to borrow a usb cable to charge their cell phone, super loud, tries to impress (why), doesn't listen to clients (would walk away in mid conversation), act as if he is the owner of the company, talks way too much (not in a good way), talking about his side hustle business, a bit juvenile, not completing and complaining about the job in front of clients plus not showing up when he said he would to complete the job, leaving tools at the site and asking the homeowners to put it in their garage until he returns to pick it up, calls in sick last minute leaving the load to other team members plus more well then this becomes a problem and 0 stars (if possible) especially the amount of money you invest into this project. We also requested that this person not show up again but they kept sending him back. At the end of the project half of the Tesla walls were connected and working but the other half wasn't connecting. At one point our bedrooms electricity didn't work, it wasn't the breakers and Nick was awesome enough to take our after hours call and help us manually override those other 2 disconnected wall panels. The dream team (Nick, Kevin and Albert) resolved the connection and all is working now. Also, Nick stayed late to make sure our Tesla walls were configured and updated properly. Plus , a shout out to Jeremy for staying late as well to help fix a broken issue. Feedback: Organize a team that works well together to effectively complete the project. Provide sexual harassment training (this is excluding people listed here). If a female client doesn't feel comfortable with a person don't resend them back. Also if a homeowner (regardless of being the wife) calls and leaves a message please out of courtesy call back after all I am the client, work and pay the bills too (even though this is my husband's project).

The process was smooth, the communication was quick, and the installation was top notch! The icing on the cake was when the inspectors came and told us that "the solar panel installation was the best" that they've seen. When I asked why they said this, they said that the panels were not drilled into the roof tiles, and that we would never have to worry about a damaged roof or leaks. Those words were very reassuring and definitely gives us peace of mind. Working with Wyndon, Michelle and their crew was a pleasure. Even after the install, we received excellent support and all our questions were answered. We highly recommend them!
