I had called a few installers and talked with the usual door knocking suspects, but none of them took the time to explain the details, options, and costs as clearly as Blake did. The great thing about Blake is that he really enjoys designing systems that work well, fit your needs, and save you money. The other quotes I got felt like cookie cutter systems, usually too small, not specific to our needs, and quite expensive. All said and done, conservatively speaking, we save about $250/month. And we all know costs have gone up since then. SHS Power isn't a huge company and they're genuinely interested in finding the right solution for you. For example, they installed a smart car charger that charges our EV with excess solar generated. Normally, that power would be sent back to SDGE, but with NEM 3.0 it's really not worth the trouble. If it works for your schedule, it's a game changer. Finally, I've heard some horror stories about systems that were installed, but couldn't get passed by the inspectors. I was super impressed with Dominic's ability to know what the inspectors were looking for and how to "speak their language". Passed on the first go. It was a small detail rather than something that was a terrible never ending blocker. If you've ever had to deal with government inspections, you know what I'm talking about. Every member of the team was professional and knowledgeable, every step of the process was done well. I can't recommend the team at SHS Power highly enough. If you're even thinking about getting solar, call SHS Power.

Out of all the companies I contacted, San Diego Solar Install offered the best overall solar + battery package for the price. I initially reached out through their website and received a prompt response from Bruce, the owner. He's extremely personable, takes the time to answer every question, and genuinely addresses any concerns. He's one of the rare solar professionals who truly cares about his customers rather than just making a sale. Chad, Ian, and the rest of the installation team did a meticulous job installing both the solar panels and batteries, all within a tight timeline. The quality of their work really shows--see the attached photos for yourself. As I'm writing this at night, my home is running entirely off the Enphase batteries with zero power being pulled from the grid, which really highlights how well the system is performing. The other Yelp reviews definitely don't lie!

I needed to repair my skylight after noticing moisture on an area of the wood below it. I received…read moreseveral quotes, but Sunline Energy was the only company that recommended fixing the root of the problem rather than just putting a Band-Aid on it. My skylight had been installed incorrectly by another company, which was contributing to the moisture issue. Since skylight repairs can be a relatively small job, I found that not many reputable companies were interested in doing this type of work. I was very happy to find Sunline Energy. Juan handled the skylight and related roof and flashing repairs, and I can't say enough about the quality of his work. He is a perfectionist and took the time to make sure everything was done correctly. He went above and beyond and fixed both the skylight and surrounding roof area beyond my expectations. Based on my experience and the quality of Juan's work, I would highly recommend Sunline Energy to anyone needing skylight or related roof repairs.

Adding on after Sunline Energy's response: I did not mention the following yet it is important to do so, in 2024 3 roofing companies told me that the roof was past due on repair, I had mentioned what happened with Sunline Energy in 2023 and was told that your company as well as others install on roofs that are not healthy enough and even with replacement of shingles the plywood was not thick enough to support solar panels, in other words, Sunline never mentioned something that was felt just by walking on the roof, ethics should be as important as obtaining a sale because people work hard to keep there home maintained, honesty is the best policy, I understand that the company must achieve sales but situations as so are very disturbing, Sunline Energy continues to owe us $1,000 due to a deposit for a job that never took place.

Worst customer experience I've ever had. DO NOT question your bill with these guys or they go full…read moreon Karen and refuse to come back to a job that was only partially finished. Never came back after a six week wait. Approx 4/28/21 My system went down and I find out my solar provider, Petersen Dean went bankrupt and new company that bought assets refused to honor my warranty. I called around and San Diego Solar said they could be out in a day or two. 4/30/21~ 4 guys show up at my tiny 704 square foot / 10-solar panel house to access my solar problem. The owner (Brad) and I shot the breeze while one guy opened some junction boxes and found the problem in the first few minutes. The other two guys just stood there and watched while the one guy made the temporary repair. The issue was shoddy workmanship with Petersen Dean using faulty boxes and the wrong wire connectors. They did send one of the 'extra' guys to truck to get a junction box and wire connectors which took five minutes. The guy made the temporary repair which all took place in 40 minutes from the time they arrived. They said they'd get parts together and be back to change the rest of the boxes within two weeks. I notified the owner (Brad) at this time I was moving on June 7, 2021 and I MUST have the work done before that time so my tenant didn't have to deal with it and Brad said "NO PROBLEM". I also offered to pay for that day's work right then and the Brad said "We'll settle up when the work is complete". Very cool of them. I also gave the workers some cactus and succulent cuttings that they asked about. Great start I thought. 5/4/21 Got a text that Roberto would be at my house on 5/5/21. 5/6/21 Texted Dirk to say Roberto never showed up. Dirk said they'd be there next week. 5/14/21~ I called and left a message. Got a text back saying they were super busy but they'd get to me before I moved on June 7th. 5/17/21 Waited a few more days and called again and left a voicemail. Got a text saying "be there in the next couple days'. 5/27/21 Sent a text reminding them I needed the work done as I'm moving. Reply was 'Bear with me, we're finishing up 150 panel job'. 6/3/21 I called again and Dirk said they are just slammed and will get to me in the next couple weeks. He also said "Since the request was not done via email, it just got overlooked" Huh? I never even had their email address. And I reminded him for the umpteenth time I was moving June 7. He said they were too busy to make my date. He said he'd send an email with the first invoice and I told him his brother said we could settle up when all work was done and Dirk also agreed to that but he'd still send the invoice. I never got an invoice. 6/6/21~ Finally received the invoice. I emailed again and said my movers come tomorrow and my solar is still not fixed. He said I hadn't paid the invoice that I never received. He had my email address wrong. It showed 3 men 1 hour @ $270. By this time I'm really aggravated as they completely did not hold up their end of the bargain we made on 4/30/21. I wrote an email that said I'd pay the invoice as written but since I will have moved when they finally come back and not able to supervise, I'd like a smaller crew to replace my junction boxes and wire nuts. It's literally a one man job. Apparently this really pissed Dirk off as he snapped back that my roof, (9 degree pitch which is almost flat) was dangerous and that my electric mast was dangerous and a minimum two man crew was needed. I said that's fine. Almost EVERY single family home has an electrical mast and mine is brand new and no different than any other mast. 6/16/21 I'm 2000 miles away now. Still no news on my repair. I receive a second invoice with a late fee on it. The invoice was 10 days old and they put a late fee on it! I paid it but mentioned they can't put a late fee on an invoice that is only 10 days old that the owners had originally agreed to settle up when work was complete. I paid the invoice. 6/22/21~ I receive an email from Dirk that they are not coming back. As a customer I have every right to question charges on my invoice. Apparently not at San Diego Solar though. They bail out on you half way through the job. Dirk, (not Brad) provided the worst customer service, follow through and treatment I've ever encountered and I'm 60 years old and rehabbed/flipped 13 houses with 50+ different contractors. All I asked was for my repairs to be made as agreed upon on 4/30/21 and hopefully they could send less than three guys to make my repair. I know my repair was tiny and a nuisance but I was looking for a long term service provider. If you don't want a job, don't take it in the first place. San Diego Solar made me lose a little faith in humanity. It was all unnecessary. Had they done what they said they'd do on 4/30/21, BEFORE I moved 2000 miles away, everything would have worked out fine.
