    Squeezing new Bryant AC unit through front door
    Liz M.

    Thank You Yelp Reviewers for leading us to Advanced Improvements! I was looking for a company to upgrade our Solar system. We had received an email from Enphase, the manufacturer of our solar panels, offering us a discounted rate to replace our 8 yr old solar panels with their latest model. As we did not want to use the same company that originally installed the panels, we were looking for a company that would work on a solar system installed by another company. I called Advanced Improvements and spoke with Anthony who assured us that was not a problem. Anthony looked at our panels and told us we should keep the panels we have as they are the best on the market! We then asked him about adding a few more panels to the system to completely wipe out our monthly electric bill. He assured us that was possible but suggested we try some simple conservation measures first to determine if more panels are actually needed and if so, how many. We agreed to wait 4-6 weeks and see if we could reduce the amount of electricity we use. We were so impressed with Anthony! He didn't try to sell us something we may not need and even talked us into waiting and trying his suggestions on saving power before deciding on adding solar panels! How often do you find a Sales Rep who puts the customer's needs ahead of company profit like that??? Since Advanced Improvements specializes in HVAC systems, we asked Anthony about replacing our furnace and AC unit. He was able to write us up a quote that was reasonable and we decided to have Advanced Improvements replace our HVAC before the heat of summer. Joe and another man (I'm sorry but I forget his name) were at our home bright and early this past Wednesday and quickly got to work removing our old furnace and AC unit. Since these units were original with the house from 1974, they were quite old! It didn't take long to remove the old units but there was a problem when it came to taking the new Bryant AC unit to our backyard! It was a bit wider than the gate to the backyard and the garage door into our house. Fortunately, they were able to squeeze it through our front door! They were so careful to not scratch the paint or the unit!! And afterwards, swept up the minor dirt both inside and outside, even in the driveway! I was so impressed with how thoughtful they were throughout the installation. The entire installation of the furnace and the AC unit took one full day and two hours on the second day. Joe explained that they typically finish in one day, as they would have two technicians on a job like this. But, the other technician was sick so he was doing both hookups himself and would need two days. We now have a brand spanking new HVAC system, along with a Honeywell P6 Thermostat that we can control with our phones and through Alexa! And, since the thermostat is a smart device, we are eligible for a $75 rebate on it! We are very happy with the service we received from Anthony, Joe and the team at Advanced Improvements! It was quick and professional, delivered in a friendly and efficient way! Anthony has been great throughout this entire process! He gave me his cell phone number and responds to texts very quickly, even on weekends! I would not hesitate to recommend Anthony and Advanced Improvements to our friends and family! In fact, I already have! By the way, we have already saved money using Anthony's suggestions for energy conservation! We will only have to add half of the number of panels we originally thought! Of course, Advanced Improvements will be doing that work for us also!!

    My beautiful 51 panels. All installed on the back of the house. Cannot see it from the ground level. Perfect install job!

    SOLAR: With so many solar companies out now and horror stories of people getting ripped off I was skeptical of who to go with. Was referred to Advanced Improvements by a friend who had solar installed by them. I spoke to Jason about my electric bill which is typically $300-$600 a month winter/summer. He seemed very truthful and told me about every solar option I could go with. It seemed informational rather than a sales pitch. He wasn't trying to steer me into only one option as all the others do. They also had great financing options if needed. After researching a few other companies I decided to go with Advanced Improvements mainly because they explained it all so well not to mention had the best price. I ended up with 51 micro inverter panels. Installation was very fast (week or so). They have their own crew, nothing subcontracted. My wife commented on how helpful and polite Joe was who ran the job. They used top quality name brand system components and it's all wired up to my internet for easy access from any phone/computer. See for yourself: https://enlighten.enphaseenergy.com/pv/public_systems/SNXZ353632 After you get installed you then have to deal with SCE getting Net Metering started. Advanced Improvements took care of it all and stayed on top of it. After a month I was on NEM. Now my bill will be almost zero. All in all, excellent service, system, and price. I highly recommend you at least talk to them if you are thinking of installing solar.

Carlos came out and provided 2 different quotes, one for full replacement and another one for replacing only a portion to include upgrading all the vents. I wasn't expecting that but after consideration, I thought that was the best option. We scheduled the repair and they were prompt, professional, and clean. His team came out on time and worked like a machine to complete in one day. They cleaned up after they were done and then the foreman came out same day to inspect and perform quality control. Aside from saving me thousands on our options, I was very impressed with SoCal from start to finish. I would highly recommend their services.

I really wanted to give this company 5 stars because of Jose, the foreman. He was amazing to work with, attentative, and prompt. Salt of the earth! Carlos, the owner, was also amazing, prompt, straightforward, knowledgeable. They did an amazing job on my roof. Roof itself 5/5. No complaints. However, I do believe the job and the service itself is 3 stars. Not bad but not amazing. I ended up walking away from this experience just kind of meh but wanted to share my honest thoughts so it'll help others. That being said, there were a couple hiccups that happened along the way. No one contacted me prior to the day of my start date/roof removal. The office manager kind of chucked it as the person who supposed to let me know was out sick. They require someone be home to sign off on the work so not letting me know seemed off.. Not a peep about what time theyll be arriving, what to expect. Etc. Yes, they walk you through this process during quotation but thats about 4 to 6 weeks out before the actual day. They also didnt let me know which day or what time. I had to reach out myself multiple times. The team is quick but I also think their speed leaves them a bit careless. After they were done, I was left with a patched ceiling (beautifully patched but I feel like shouldn't have happened in the first place), kitchen/outdoor light that no longer works, loose recessed lighting,, and plumbing leak. They also let you know and disclose that things may break since theres pressure on the roof. Its in the contract but it highlights loose items and such... but realistically, not electrical going out or plumbing leaks based on what ive learned from others and neighbors. I also had my plumbing inspected and redone in September 2024. Now, im not saying they were at fault and that theyre to blame. It could just be my luck that it happened exactly on the day they were up on my roof after living here over a year. Also, very minor but there were trash left around that my inspector found. They were accomodating on making things right although they started to be a little short with me towards the end. I really considered referring them to other friends who needed their roofing done but not sure if my confidence is there if theyll be spending $$$ for an ok experience.

Adam came out shortly after I contacted him and upon inspection, said that our existing roof had another 4-5 years left. I still asked him to quote the project and his price was competitive with the other 4 bids that we received. Only one of the other 4 companies were honest enough to tell me that I did not need a new roof at that time, so All Pro was already the standout from an integrity/honesty standpoint. Fast forward to this year -- my wife and I decided to proceed with our roofing project, and so I reached back out to All Pro as well as a few other roofing companies. All Pro's price was again very competitive with the other companies, and Adam took a lot of time to explain the installation process and the difference in shingle options, so we decided to select All Pro as our vendor of choice. His crew removed the old roof in a day, identified and replaced existing wood and facia as necessary, and installed our new Certainteed Presidential TL roof in country grey in about a week. Everyday, his crew thoroughly cleaned up any debris, dirt and nails around the property. As shown in the pictures, the roof came out beautifully and we are very happy with the All Pro experience from start to finish. HIGHLY RECOMMEND All Pro roofing, Adam and his team.

    This is my first posting, but I felt obligated to warn others about my experience with this…read morecompany. Like they warn you about contractors, take the low estimate and double it. That's exactly what happened here. My estimate was around $23,000 but the final cost was over $45,000. They placed a lot of the cost as 'extra' but most of it became necessary. I chose this company based on their good reviews. But I think they prevented bad reviews. I would have gotten a 'discount' if I didn't write this review. The clause they added was: "As part of this agreement, both parties agree not to make, publish, or communicate any statements, whether written or oral, that could reasonably be construed as negative, defamatory, or disparaging toward the other party, including but not limited to statements made on review platforms, social media, or to third parties. This includes statements regarding the project, the services performed, or the resolution of this matter. This obligation applies indefinitely." It seemed pretty standard, so I guess I am not the first to get it. When they added over $6,000 to the estimate, I requested to be notified of any further changes. I heard nothing. But when I called to ask what was going on, I was told that the cost had increased to over $40,000. And I had to call to find out. When I asked to see the items I was being charged, I was told I should have gone up to roof and watched to verify what was actually being used. That response alone speaks volumes. My advice: be careful when you get an estimate from a company who doesn't have someone go on the roof. I thought using a drone was modern and efficient, but it can also be lazy and gives them no idea what needs to be done --adding costly surprises later.

Dave was prompt in responding to my Yelp inquiry and got me scheduled within just two days. He was very punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and honest throughout the entire process- from the first contact to the last. I received an inspection and estimate on a water leak from the wall near the window and upon his thorough inspection of inside, outside, above the home with a drone, Dave came to a conclusion that it was most likely related to the window itself. He spent his time explaining his findings and going over the condition of the roof which demonstrated his knowledge and expertise. He told me to do a water challenge test from outside the window since he'd rather do the least invasive thing first, rather than go straight to the roof since he didn't see anything visibly wrong with the roof. Within 48 hours of the inspection he emailed me photos of the roof that he took with his drone and an estimate of the roof repair if I were to need it. Dave was a pleasure to work with and he will definitely be the person I contact and refer to others when there is ever a need for any roof work!

Some was so bad that you could literally see exposed underlayment. I was only able to catch this due to a bathroom window I have that just happen to overlook it. If I got the work done on a different part of the roof, probably would never have noticed. And would never be able to call them to address it, so keep that in mind. What's worse is that since the roof work there was no major rain for 16 month, which is outside of the 12 month warranty. So I guess if you never put their roof to the test against mother nature then I guess it's perfect service. But the first time it's suppose to do its job it fails to do so. At this point I'm not sure what they did mess up my tiles and take my money for the privilege. I would literally be in a better position had I not paid them to do "work" on my roof. I tried contacting them several times and met with the cold shoulder. I'm probably just going to eat my losses here but if you're considering them, just be warned. Or make sure it rains in the warranty period!
