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.

I do not recommend this company, I wanted to cancel my agreement because they postponed install…read moredate on more than one ocasion, they wouldn't refund my $1,000 deposit even though they were not complying with the agreement, life got busy and I could not pursue filing in small claims court but after hearing about the experience others had with the company (a nightmare), I realized losing a $1,000 was very little compared to what others experienced, not a reliable company because if they couldn't fulfil the timeline they should have offered to cancel and refund deposit, very disappointing. 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.

Beyond Exceptional: Build Brothers & Tesla Powerwall 3 Are the Ultimate SDG&E Solution…read more In San Diego, beating SDG&E's outrageous $0.80/kWh peak rates (4 PM-9 PM) is no longer a luxury--it's a necessity for housing affordability. After helping our son purchase his home, we knew we had to address the property's failing 15-year-old Aurora inverter and aging 21-panel solar system. We were introduced to Build Brothers through our Realtor, Jeanne Liebel. Colton Frisch conducted a exceptionally detailed initial inspection that flagged the failing equipment early, allowing us to secure a sizable credit from the seller during closing to fund an upgrade. When we officially hired Build Brothers to design a replacement, they didn't just sell us panels--they engineered a complete solution based on our household usage (EV charging, A/C, and pool equipment). They installed 13 Hyundai 440W solar panels paired with a Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5 kWh) with an integrated inverter. Why the Tesla Powerwall 3 is a Game-Changer: Simply having rooftop solar isn't enough under current rate structures; avoiding grid usage when the sun goes down is the real key. Think of the Powerwall 3 like a DVR for your home's power: Load Shifting: It captures surplus solar energy generated during midday and powers the house throughout the evening peak window. Zero Grid Draw: We routinely run our AC set to 75°F from 4 PM to 9 PM and beyond, pulling 0 kWh from SDG&E. Execution & Results: The Build Brothers crew was incredible. In just 3 days, they removed the old array and inverter, repaired the roof, installed the new solar system and Powerwall 3, and even installed a dedicated NEMA 14-50 garage outlet for fast, sun-powered EV charging. Special thanks to Colton, Jesse, John Ross, Cristian, and John Perez for their professionalism and top-tier craftsmanship. If you are looking to take control of your energy bills in San Diego, I recommend contacting the Team at Build Brothers! https://buildbrothersinc.com/

I purchased a home solar system from SolarMax in summer 2019. My system came with a 10-year power…read moreperformance guarantee and 10 years of monitoring. Less than three years after the system was installed, the monitoring stopped working due to T-Mobile retiring its 3G network. When I called SolarMax to ask what to do about this, they said that I would need to pay $625 to install a WiFi card, and that my power performance guarantee would only be valid if I paid for this upgrade. When I purchased the system, the salesperson, Jose Lopez, told me via email, "Our system does include monitoring. We do not charge additional for our monitoring." He didn't mention the 3G modem or say anything about the monitoring being conditional on a third party supporting 3G. With 7 years remaining on my power performance guarantee, I have no way of verifying that the system is performing as expected. If energy production decreases, then I won't know, and SolarMax won't compensate me for the underproduction. I feel like I'm being forced to pay an extra $625 for something that was supposed to be included in the upfront price.

Update: If any issues come up with Sunrun, it may take elevating to their management chain, but…read moreSunrun ultimately does the right thing. Gemini AI helped me get an email contact up the chain at sunrun who I wrote a polite email to describing the problem below. I got a phone call in less than 30 minutes from a really nice woman saying she's a Solutions Expert from Sunrun and is giving me a full refund of my leasing fees for the days the system was completely down for no fault of my own. I requested they also update training for their support team to avoid this for people with equipment down more than a few days once the cause is known and no fault of the homeowner. Original review: Their equipment is too prone to failure and they don't fix it in a timely manner and stick you with all the electric costs while it's down AND still charge you for leasing fees even while totally worthless/down. You are stuck in a bad 30 year contract. More details if desired: Equipment went completely down on me after only 3 years on a brand new house, it took them way too long to fix (2 1/2 months) and they would not reemburse me for their leasing fees during the time it was down and I incurred SDGE electric costs far more than the leasing fees I asked to be reembursed very reasonable request. I've heard these system failures of the sunrun boxes in the garage are common. Sunrun contracts with worthless "guarantees" that are only reviewed every 2 years/not when there's a problem and production levels guaranteed over each 2 year period are way too low leaving you to pay for outages their fault. Sunrun phone and online chat would not do anything for me other than to point to above worthless contract clause and I couldnt get them to elevate my case up the management chain. I want to be fair to other solar companies in I'm not making a call on since depends on diff factors; but before you buy solar from any company, just be sure to get a quote for cleaning the panels every year to keep them producing what they should and understand latest laws on how much of the solar you're paying for goes to you vs the electric company unless you also buy a battery to store it for thousands of dollars.
