I chose All Bay for my solar installation (solar system, house battery, EV car charging circuit installation) among a handful of competitors. They were great to work with, discussed with me whether I was a good candidate for solar, what a right-sized system looked like, managed all the communication with PG&E including minimizing complications associated with relocation of equipment. They inspected my roof, did high quality work, and even went above and beyond on a couple efforts I asked about. I would choose them again and may consider them for non-solar work. Minus half a star as they were sometimes slow to respond to communications, though this was during the rush to beat the cancelling of the Federal tax incentives. Great team overall, friendly and helpful. read more

From signing the contract to the solar installation was extremely quick. The crew had my job complete in one day and left the grounds clean and neat. I would definitely recommend them to my friends, or anyone interested in solar. read more

All Bay Solar came as a highly recommended roofing contractor, who could also remove and reinstall existing solar panels, so I called them to get a quote for a roof replacement. I was quickly given an appointment, and even received a phone call when he was running late due to traffic. A knowledgeable rep got up on my roof, took measurements, and discussed options with me. He said I should receive a quote within 24-48 hours. That was more than 2 weeks ago, and I've heard nothing since, despite two voice messages and two emails asking for an update. Since when has ghosting someone become a normal business practice? Perhaps there has been some company emergency I am unaware of, or perhaps someone simply decided they were too busy to provide a quote. But a complete lack of communication is never the answer - in fact, it is a major red flag! I know the experience of some others is different, but for those seeking a roofing contractor, customer beware! read more

All Bay Solar installed 15 solar panels, a Tesla storage battery, a new main breaker panel, and other miscellaneous wiring in our home on Potrero Hill at the end of 2025. Even though they were extremely busy, Carlos and the team did a phenomenal job. Their workmanship is top-notch, and they were very easy to work with, accommodating a couple of revisions to the work to be done during the project. The team was professional, efficient, and took extreme care to ensure the installation was done to our specifications. We recommend them highly! read more

8+ years after my solar installation Carlos is still providing extremely responsive support. So glad I went with All Bay Solar!

All Bay Solar installed our solar panels in March 2015. Since the install we've only had 1 or 2 small issues which All Bay Solar quickly responded and fixed the issue. They removed the panels and installed a new roof for us during this time also. They have long time employees that do excellent work, great customer service and clean up daily as they work. Importantly, the price was always fair and reasonable. I can't say enough good things and tell everyone who asks about solar, to CALL ALL BAY SOLAR. read more

They originally installed solar on our roof. The process was relatively smooth and hasn't had any issues. Recently I asked them for a quote to repair our patio roof deck. They came out quickly to do give us an estimate and explained what needed to be done for repair. Their pricing was the lowest of 3 companies and they were the nicest as well. We went with them for the work and are happy we did. read more

Our experience getting solar panels and batteries couldn't have been any better. The whole team at All Bay is responsive, reliable, kind, professional and and their pricing is reasonable for top notch work. Our system looks great and has allowed us to be 98% energy independent from PG&E. We also tagged on a smaller electrical project which they did quickly and under the budget estimate. They'll be our first call for any additional projects. read more

if you are thinking about replacing your roof and you already have solar panels on it, All Bay Solar is absolutely the best. It can be a real dilemma finding companies that do both of these well. The All Bay Solar team is highly professional, thorough, tidy and excellent communicators as to what is being done. Our rather large project in Santa Cruz was completed within four days with both precision and total follow through. Our sincere appreciation to All Bay Solar.Bob read more

All Bay Solar installed two batteries and a new main panel for us at our semi-remote location on the Peninsula. Everything went well from the initial site visit to final inspection. All Bay acquired the permit, performed the work, and completed all the paperwork for the PG&E rebate. The whole process was done in a friendly and professional manner by the electricians and office staff. We now have a fully integrated utility, solar, battery and generator system. We have had 14 outages in the last 8 months. Two almost 12 hours in duration; the system performed as expected keeping our well pump, refrigerators, water heater, freezer and lighting working to keep us safe, secure and comfortable. I recommend All Bay Solar with confidence to anyone needing the services they provide so well. read more

The process of installing a solar system is complicated, confusing and involves so many steps--working with the sales team to design a system, inspection of your house/roof, installation by the construction team, electrical work by an electrician, permitting with the city, inspection by the city, inspection by PGE, etc... There are many websites out there, and many different companies that provide solar. While it is definitely prudent to get quotes from many different people, at the end of the day, I can say I HIGHLY recommend working with All Bay Solar. Why?? The simple fact that All Bay Solar is a LOCAL one stop shop company. They will walk you through the whole process from start to finish. The other companies I tried to work with: Tesla, Sunrun, etc are big companies that do not care about you or your time. And it is nearly impossible to contact support if you have questions. I wasted hours of my life with both of those companies only to find out neither were options for my house in San Francisco. If you want to install solar in the Bay Area, I highly recommend that you do as much research as possible. Understand the steps of installing solar, know how much sun you get, understand the condition of your roof, etc. Once you know as much as possible, contact All Bay Solar! Tell them Paul W sent you! read more

We recommend All Bay Solar highly! Their team completed the install within two days. We just had the fire inspection and the inspector said it was the cleanest install he has seen in this area. He was very impressed with the stickers that were placed in various areas clearly showing battery and solar shut off locations, etc. The entire team from the office to the field were very helpful and transparent through the whole process. read more

The All Bay Team was amazing to work with when installing our solar panels - new roof and panels- and completed all paperwork required to get us up and running - with a smile and clear communication throughout the entire process. Really enjoyed working with Carlos and his team. They honored their work with integrity, and I will work with them on all future projects related to solar energy. Thank you, All Bay. read more

All Bay Solar blames on customers. They did many things incorrectly. He appeared he wasn't familiar with generator. As a result, there are multiple issues. For installing new electric meters for rental property, All Bay Solar did not fix the problem so the money was owed. The meter a, b & c were still not consistent with PGE and City of San Francisco Building Department until today. 1) What Carlos claimed Millbrae had many power outage isn't true. There wasn't any power outage since the generator was installed until 2023 spring storm. Thus, I didn't know the generator had never work past 5 years since the installation. 2) The money was owed because All Bay Solar never reached out to fix the problems. Instead, he blamed on customers as usual. It was extremely frustrated not able to find out why the generator had never connected to my house. In April, 2024 I paid $500 to a Generac certified generator repair technician to trouble shoot. The technician showed me when the power was turned off for the house, the generator immediately supplied the power to the house. The problem is All Bay Solar crossed the wire in the box below the deck. The technician said I was lucky the generator wasn't damaged by the crossed wire. I deserved the credit because I had to pay AAA generac to replace the line installed by All Bay Solar incorrectly. After emailing Generac the photo, Generac support advised the gas line needed replacement. All Bay Solar installed wrong cheap Home Dept gas line that isn't used for generator. read more

I am thoroughly impressed with Carlos and his crew. The entire experience from start to finish was second to none. During the sales process, Chris did an excellent job explaining how the system works and answering any questions that I had. He was extremely patient, well spoken, and extremely responsive. I really appreciated his no-pressure whatsoever approach. Chris would respond to calls, text messages, emails, etc.. at all times of the day/night. He also kept me in the loop every step of the way from the time I placed my order, through installation, permit to operate, and beyond (including taking care of paperwork for rebates, etc..). The installation crew was also top notch. They were very careful, respectful, timely, and professional. They were extremely tidy and courteous to not only me, but to my neighbors as well. Not one single piece of scrap material, nail, plastic, etc.. was left behind. Well done! The fact that All Bay Solar is not just a solar installation company, but are also roofers and electricians who are local, is certainly something that does not go unnoticed. I am confident that if I have any issues (unlikely, knock on wood), they are just a call, text, or email away. During and after the installation, Carlos answered any questions that I had and also went the extra mile in terms of some caulking that needed to be done on my roof. I feel fortunate to have found All Bay Solar. In summary, Carlos, Chris, and the rest of the crew far exceeded my expectations and I would absolutely use them again. Five stars for All Bay Solar. If I could give ten stars, I would! read more

All Bay Solar's crew was meticulous in their DAILY care of our home. The technology is the best solar currently available. Sierra Club recommends Sun Power. All Bay Solar's work with our roof and solar installation was FAST, professional and truly remarkable. Communication was excellent. Follow-up demonstrated genuine caring. But here's something we noticed that we did not expect. The crew worked together like a symphony. These guys were attuned to each other in a way that allowed synchronicity and efficiency that I never thought about in roof work. This was especially important as our roof has a 45 degree slope and many roofers flat did not want to do the job. I have a client who had her roof done (and paid more than double what we did) and several days later I found 3 nails in her driveway. It only takes one nail to cause a flat tire. It was deeply gratifying watching the crew scouring our ground EVERY SINGLE DAY. Not ONE Nail was left behind! Thank you, All Bay Solar, for getting us scheduled, keeping to the schedule, taking care of our home AND our neighbors' homes. Everyone was thrilled and we feel secure with our gorgeous new roof. Let' the storms come - we're READY. read more

I recommend working with the owner. The sales rep was not on the up and up regarding what your buying. I requested SunPower and I got brand that also supples for SunPower. Never once did the sales rep mentioned this. read more

Got connected to All Bay Solar through Sun Power. We decided to go with Sunpower because their panels as well as the 25year warranty are some of the top panels in the industry. We appreciated Carlos (the founder and President) coming to our house to sit down and do an in-depth consultation within one week of reaching out to Sunpower. We contacted Luminalt and Occidental and they wait times for consultations were over a month and installations were not available until 2020. Their quotes for similar builds were significantly more than All Bay's. Install was smooth and quick. Our only issue was that there were some hiccups with email communication and we would have liked a little more structure after signing the contract from the team. I chalk it up them being small company and being extremely business. I provided this feedback to Carlos and he was very open to it and saw to it that they improve their processes. Overall a positive experience, and I'm happy with my decision. read more

We had an excellent experience working with All Bay to install solar, reroof (including adding insulation) and upgrading our electrical panel. They were all professionals. The project manager was a great communicator, highly responsive and a great problem solver. The hands-on crew were all very experienced experts at their trades. Highly recommend All Bay Solar to anyone interested in installing solar. read more

We recently had All Bay Solar do a complete solar installation on our house, and we were very happy with every aspect of their work. The project involved replacing and upgrading the electrical panel, a new roof and installing the 12 solar panels. We took bids from four different solar companies, and All Bay offered the best set of services at a very competitive price. All Bay is unique in being able to do all this work in house without using subcontractors. The job went very smoothly, was completed in a timely manner, and they went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. Carlos, the owner, was involved throughout the project, and Adon, who led the roofing team, was especially helpful in installing a new skylight, which was a little tricky. All Bay gets our highest recommendation. read more

We have searched a lot of solar company to help us install solar in our house. Some company will just check your roof at the Google map and just emailed you with information. At ALL BAY SOLAR they will be there for you personally and explained to you everything in person. Because I am san francisco resident I have kinds of incentives and help us lower the amount of the cost. They all help us with paper work and they install the solar panel for 2 days. Carlos and his staff are very friendly and very professional. I started recommending them to my friends, family, and people who want to have solar...we are now enjoying our lower PG & E and happy that we can save money for our kids future... read more

All Bay Solar recently completed the installation of solar panels on our roof and also upgraded our service panel and breaker box. We purchased the system directly from Sunpower who contracted with All Bay for the installation. They did a great job and I am very happy with the service and follow up. They needed to move the service panel around the corner of our house and even patched the shingles where the old meter was removed and repaired the sheetrock by the new breaker box in the house. The panels look great on the roof. We used the all black panels because they are very prominent on the roof. read more

All Bay Solar was a class act start to finish. I just had a 3kW system installed in South Bernal Heights. Every step of the way, from working with Thomas on the sales/contracting/financing end to Carlos and Edgar on the install, was super smooth. Very responsive, arrived on time, nice people, did great work, and cleaned up the mess before leaving. They worked with me to meet my needs on things like where to run conduit down the front of the house, where to put the sub-panel etc... It is becoming more and more rare to find businesses that take pride in their work and behave responsibly and with integrity. They helped deal with the city/federal tax programs. I was generating solar power 8 hours after they showed up to begin the install. When the city inspectors came, they were nitpicky about some staples on a particular cable and where certain stickers were placed on one of the boxes. The whole thing was taken care of right then and there and the permit was issued later that day. The price was very competitive compared to another local and much larger Sunpower vendor, and they did the install 6 months sooner than the other vendor was able to do. The smaller size of this company means more personalized attention. read more

After doing a lot of research and getting estimates from two other highly rated companies, I went with All Bay. Not only was their estimate thousands of dollars less than the other two, they offered the same product and warranty. The process was efficient, smooth and seamless from start to finish. Communication was excellent and we couldn't be happier with the result. I highly recommend All Bay for your solar needs. Thank you, Tom, Edgar and team! read more

Carlos Aguirre, the owner of all bay solar is really old school as far as customer service is in this day and age. He really knows what he is doing and his crew have been great. My project was a difficult one in the city and all I can say is they did a smashing job. Being in the construction business for 49 years all I can say is they are tops in the field! Thanks Carlos,I will refer you to other clients for taking good care of us! Sincerely, Bill read more

Very Happy Customer! My Solar and Electrical system is still working fine. I also asked Tom and Carlos if they could do another electrical job for me because of their expertise and quality level of service. The related inspections were passed with high praise from inspectors for the electrical contractors (All Bay Solar)!! The customer facing service rep, the project manager, electrician, and upper management were all excellent. And they are reasonable prices for the high level quality & expertise workmanship. I would not hesitate if you are looking for a straight-shooter and high quality services. They actually care about their customers!!!! read more

I highly recommend All Bay Solar. When i decided to put solar panels on my roof I looked into 4-5 companies (SolarCity, Luminalt, Sungevity, Sunpower and another small local one) and got detailed quotes. All Bay Solar gave me one of the best quotes, was easier to deal with and very clear about the economics of solar, with no BS. For example, only All Bay Solar mentioned that the city rebate is taxable. The owner, Carlos, was very prompt and straightforward. Once I signed the contract, it took a couple of days to get the material. Installation was super-easy. Carlos' team was professional, courteous and cleaned up very well. The system worked perfectly from day one. They also managed all the paperwork for the rebate, making that part of the process very easy as well. Two thumbs up for All Bay Solar! read more

We finally decided to go solar and after months of research we choose sunpower to provide our solar needs. Sunpower sent All Bay Solar to complete our job. The process went in a few stages first they sent a team to perform a site survey from All Bay Solar once that was completed we had to wait for permitting and the next step will be what this review will be about which was the installation process. All Bay solar sent out two teams to perform the solar installation one of the teams worked on the roof to place to solar panels and fasten them to our roof, and the the second team was working on upgrading our fuse box to circuit breakers due to our home was built in the early 50's our service panel had to be upgraded. The service panel upgrade took the longest part, but when all was said and done the new circuit breaker box looked amazing and we were just about happy with what was done. Although there was a minor hiccup that occurred with our older wiring, while they were switching out our circuit breaker they didn't mention to us an important key factor of unplugging everything in our home to prevent any of our electronics for having a circuit meltdown. There was only two of our items that fried our circuits one was our upright freezer and the other was our garage door opener, which after the circuit breaker upgrade did indeed fry the motherboards. When I spoke to the electrician and the installers they said I should expect a call from the office to resolve the problem. There was no phone call so I called them instead which was no problem at all. Now that the garage door opener and upright freezer was out of commission, we were told that both would have to be replaced which was fine with us. The only problem was that they had to order the parts so which took really long due to a miscommunications error. The owner Carlos was away on vacation for awhile, so nothing can be done until his return. When Carlos returned we lost all our food in the upright freezer and we had to keep our garage door locked and closed which was a slight problem due to us leaving the house for everyday errands we could no longer leave from the garage so we just sacrificed. The bad part of the whole situation was loosing all the food in the upright freezer. When Carlos returned from his vacation, Catalina was my person of contact she informed me that they had ordered us a new upright freezer and will arrive in a few days, and after a few hours of delay on the arrival day Carlos the owner and one of his employee's came to deliver the freezer and for that part we were happy. The garage door opened however was not installed until a few days later, and again it was Carlos who came over. It took Carlos a few hours to install the garage door opener, but once installed everything worked out perfectly the only thing was we originally had a screw drive garage door opener and it was replaced with a belt one although we would have preferred another screw or chain drive garage door opener everything is working good. Carols the owner along with his entire team was friendly, and knowledgeable with the exception of unplugging everything. Despite loosing all our frozen food and waiting two months to get everything up and running again we are completely satisfied with the job that Bay Area Solar did for us, and I would definitely recommend them for your solar needs as they will fix any problems that occurred when they did the installation of our solar panels. read more

I recently had all Bay Solar install 22 SunPower series A 415 watt solar panels.(Do not confuse Bay Solar for All Bay Solar). I wanted the job finished before the end of the year. They came through and even did the job a week earlier than scheduled Why did I go with All Bay Solar - They have their own full time crews of installers - They had outstanding Yelp reviews - They carry SunPower solar panels. The industry best solar panels - They work on tike roofs What I learned during the installation - Always quick response time, if I had questions about the installation. Tom Murach; the project estimator and engineer that figures configuration of the panels and Edgar Guzman the projector manager were excellent. If had any questions before or during installation. I even had a short conversation with the company owner Carlos Aguirre - Two sets of my panels were build out on a slant so the panels would collect more sun. To save money some companies will just put the panels on the slant of the roof - This company has full time company employees who specialize in the different area of installation - The panel hardware and electrical system was installed in one day. They had 7 or 8 guys who worked all day to get the job done - The panels were also installed in one day by two guys - System was up and running a day or two after the panels were installed. It took one guy an hour or so to turn on the panels - They left the place clean What I learned after the installation - A couple of weeks after the installation the system was not working - the monitor light went red I called SunPower and they connected me with Edgar. He did the diagnosis right then and connected the system. - On Sunday February 9 we had a power outage and somehow it stopped the panels from producing. Guess what. I called Carlos and he answered his phone on Sunday. He is coming to the house on Monday morning to fix the problem. The fact that they have an owner who cares, they have full time employees and do not contract their work out to subs makes this company a winner Tom Murach and Edgar Guzman were excellent. The SunPower system works great. My system is generating 32 too 35 KWh a day during the first part of February and will generate up to 35 percent more during the summer read more

The roof of my Daly City house supported probably one of the first solar power units on this planet -- perhaps of 70s vintage. During this recent period of fierce wind and heavy rain, one of the collectors came loose and fell off of the roof. Fortunately, no one was injured by the tumbling debris. It was seriously time to remove the other unit and to repair the section of the roof where this pair of solar power units had lived for almost 50 years. I called around (using yelp) and no one was even remotely interested in performing this emergency service. Then I came upon Carlos at All Bay Solar. He was responsive and enthusiastic and ready to roll in two days. The phone captures he sent in real time clearly demonstrated the professionalism, care and experience of Carlos and his crew in all aspects of solar and roofing expertise. And, while aware of my desperation in resolving this issue, he did not take advantage of the situation by over-charging for this task. For any type of work regarding new solar installation and/or roofing contingencies, I enthusiastically recommend getting in touch with Carlos at All Bay Solar Construction. Gregg R. read more

Santos went above and beyond to ensure that my main panel upgrade was exactly what I wanted. He was here until after dark and spent a lot of under my house in order to make the work clean. Not easy and greatly appreciated! Thank you! read more

All Bay Solar installed solar panels at my parents home in Watsonville recently and were fantastic to work with.

It was pleasure to work with them. Thanks Carlos and Krystle! read more

This has been one of the worst experiences ever. All Bay Solar came out initially and installed a new breaker panel which was undersized, and the inner cover never really fit over the breakers, bulging out at various points, and a lid you could barely close. After complaints to Sunpower, who had used these guys as a sub, the manager then followed up by coming up later in the weekend, and gingerly tucking the wires in the MPU. Then, they sent out a carpenter to finish it up. I had explicitely stated that I had matching siding they should use and that they should come to the home when I wasn't out of town. I even scheduled it as such. Instead, they came out to the house and hacked in some scrap pine instead of the real siding. Then to add insult to injury, a few weeks later I went into the spare bedroom in preparation for visitors and had to clean up 3 buckets of mud that was tracked in from the crawlspace hatch in the closet of the same room. This is one of the most unprofessional contractors I have worked with. Now, I am left with a load center that does not really latch at all, will probably bang around in the wind, carpentry work that needs to be corrected (likely at my personal cost), and a very, very disatissfied customer. I will be reporting them to the BBB as well. Their license should be yanked. read more

All Bay Solar installed my solar panels with great customer service, and quick delivery. I explored solar panel solution with many vendors, and they stand out with the most reasonable price without the long sales pitch. I highly recommend using them for your solar panel needs. read more

I have had nothing but great experiences with All Bay Solar. Met with them, signed up, had solar panels installed the next week. All Bay Solar was able to fit more panels on my roof than the other solar companies I considered so we are getting more solar power for our installation than with other companies. Their customer service has been amazing too - highly recommend these guys! read more
