Tim (AWS) said they reviewed my solar system and confirmed the production shortfall, and they would compensate for the shortfall even though it is beyond the warranty. They suggest regular cleaning will help keep performance on track. I am still skeptical, but I will do this and keep track of the system production monthly to see whether or not it's going to meet the guaranteed minimum production. I truly hope my solar system would performed as they claimed; I would be happy just to get the guaranteed minimum production. I updated my rating back to 5 Stars based on their cooperation in addressing the issues reasonably fair. read more

AWS did the solar on my house maybe like 4 years ago now and everything has been tip top shape. Anytime I've needed service on the system they have been great to come and fix it. Worth getting a quote from them. read more

Super thankful my friend and colleague recommended AWS Solar to us. They are knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy, efficient, and transparent. Throughout this process, I did a ton of research and obtained quotes from several companies- and am super happy we went with AWS Solar. I really cannot recommend them enough. read more

Tim and the team at AWS Solar did a very thorough job explaining what and why we needed to have a specific system that would satisfy our household's needs. High quality install and recommendations of areas that needed repair in advance of install. Quality and good info all the way from beginning to end. All Enphase equipment... we couldn't be happier. Highly recommended!!! read more

This was one of the solar places that I contacted for a quote. I must've contacted over 10 companies in Orange County. I was very happy with the service I received at AWS. They took their time to answer all my questions. They were professional and well informed. I thought they were great. We chose not get solar, but I would recommend getting a quote from them. read more

This is a progress review. I called AWS Solar in September for a quote on installing panels at our residence. I had spoken with two other companies, and AWS not only provided ample information on solar power in general, they were responsive to my questions. Based on that and all of the excellent reviews I read online about them, I chose AWS. I was hoping to take advantage of the California incentive, and the federal tax credit that expires at the end of 2025. I did not expect our panels and battery storage to be installed and operating within a few weeks. It was so fast! Their crew was efficient and professional. My interactions with their sales person, Tim, were always to my satisfaction. We are still waiting for the LADWP to approve and sign off their end of it, and that could take weeks. In the meanwhile, I enjoy looking at my app showing how much power we are generating and how much we are off the grid. I will post an updated once we are officially hooked up with DWP. read more

I researched 4 companies. AWS was the best by far. Customer service is first rate. If I had a question, they'd get back to me the same day or no later than the next day. All my questions were answered. Their communication was clear to the point. The crew that installed the panels were terrific. 27 panels all done in three days. And they ran the conduits exactly where I had asked them to. I can't speak highly enough of this company. And they are local. In California. read more

Now that the job is done I have only good things to say about AWS Solar. We got bids from 5 companies. I recommend going with a company that's large enough to have workers' compensation but not a company that's so big that they cover the whole country. AWS was efficient through the whole process. Tim was my POC and he kept me informed every step of the way. Carlos lead the installation and he came for the site survey, both days of installation, and the city inspection. We got 11 solar panels and 2 Enphase 5kWh batteries. If you're going to get solar panels you might as well go all in and get battery backup so that you can power your home if the grid goes down. The installation team was probably about 6 guys (I didn't count). They were all good and did the installation in 2 days just like they said they would. It's working great so far. There's nothing like watching your electric meter go backwards. read more

Wanted to give Tim and his team a great review because not only were they helpful but they guided us and fixed our solar panels that were put in by another company. Thank you so much for all your help and dedication. We appreciate it so much! Definitely will recommend to all her friends -Joe & Ev read more

We had a 3pm appointment. I text him at 3:45pm legitimately wondering if I read the confirmation wrong. 20 minutes later Tim text me and says "yes we did, but you never gave me your number. He had my address and we had been in communication via text messages. He then states "I tried to call twice." I check my call history and have NO history of a call. I blocked this guy! Not a great communicator and cant figure out how to give a straight answer. read more

AWS SOLAR does great work and they always follow up with any concerns that i might have as I had to do an upgrade recently regarding 5G and they took care of it right away. A special thanks to Tim. THE EXPERIENCE MAGAZINE read more

Tim and Frank installed our solar system in 2018 and we could not be happier. Our electric bill dropped from almost $1,200 to $25! The system has performed flawlessly, and AWS ensures proper maintenance and required updates. My husband and I deeply appreciate their personal service and professionalism. I tell everyone that a solar system has been by far our best home investment. DM Osborne and Donald Brown read more

AWS Solar installed 25 solar panels and a level 2 charger for us back in 2019 (really hard to believe that it's been a couple years already). At the time, I had zero experience with solar. After speaking with several companies, I ended up going with AWS Solar... and I'm really glad that I did. They thoroughly explained the process, worked with the city to take care of all permits, and helped us get up and running in great time. Today, I was working at home and had the power go off in several rooms in my house. Very odd... so, I checked the breaker box and nothing was tripped. However, I noticed that my level 2 charger was beeping and the display was off on my inverter. I called up Tim to ask if he had any ideas... he told me to hold on for a couple minutes while he checked out a few things, came back on and told me to call my power company; there must be an issue with the power coming in to my house. I followed his advice.. the electric company technician came out to my house and I explained what happened and told him about Tim's assessment. He chuckled and said we'll see... sure enough, Tim was right. Now I have a couple technicians from the power company on their way to fix my issue tomorrow morning. Tim is professional, responds quickly, and places no pressure on you to purchase any services. He continues to be extremely responsive years after I had my system installed. AWS Solar has earned my trust over the years and I will continue to reach out to them for my power needs going forward. read more

I researched a lot of solar companies and ended up going with AWS Solar. I'm so glad I did! Tim was very knowledgeable and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. The work was done when promised, and I am loving being out from underneath Edison's thumb. I would highly recommend this company! read more

I installed a 11KW solar system with Enphase iQ7X microinveters and two Tesla Powerwalls for energy storage. AWS came in with a competitive quote on the entire system. The install went perfectly and was done in a week and half. I never expected this project to go as smooth as it did. Reading so many horror stories from other institutions, I am glad I went with AWS Solar. A great bunch of guys to work with and I highly recommend them to you. read more

AWS Solar was great! They were reliable, efficient, and Tim did a great job coordinating and communicating every step of the process.

I've had my solar panels for almost 2 years now and everything is going great. Tim has been great and always answered my questions. When my neighbor was looking for solar panels, I referred him to AWS and after talking to several companies my neighbor selected them as well. Their prices were the best I could find. read more

We've been a customer since ~Oct 2021. AWS Solar bid amongst others and we couldn't be happier with the service and clear, responsive conversations, including the planning and installation. However, I'm writing this review because of exceptional extended and continued service from them. A lot of companies will drop the professional and nice persona once you've paid your money and moved on from the initial installation. That has not been the case with AWS Solar. We've called to ask questions about our system and they've replied very quickly. We recently (last week) noted one of our panels was generating zero power and called. AWS Solar said they'd send someone out that afternoon to look. Sure enough, they stopped by and inspected the panel on the 2nd-story roof without even coming into the home. 10 minutes later it was fixed and asked us to wait a few hours for our phone apps to show the improvement. I would recommend AWS Solar to friends and family. read more

AWS is a truly 5 star operation. Tim did a great job answering my many, many questions and was always available via text or email. The big was very competitive and thoughtfully presented. At the last minute, I got a bit of cold feet and had some final questions, which, again, Tim handled like a pro. After I signed the contract, scheduling the work and getting it done in pieces and in coordination with my roofer was no trouble. Tim also made a couple aesthetic tweaks that I requested regarding the orientation of the panels and the routing of the conduit, since I really wanted it all to look as seamless and clean as possible. Remember, you're going to be looking at that stuff up on your roof for decades. It's been almost a year now since the installation, and I could not be happier. The system looks and performs exactly as promised, if not better. I would not hesitate to recommend AWS and Tim to anyone who asked. read more

These guys did everything perfectly and on time. I wanted a close coordination with a new roof and insulation that I was installing as part of this project, and they were perfect. I worried that they are not as large as many installers, but some of the larger companies had some negative reviews, or some pushy sales practices, or much higher prices. A recent glitch occurred in the internet connection of the smart solar system controller and they were completely responsive and helped me correct it. It has been about a year now that I have had this system and my only negative comments have to do with the monthly connection charge from Edison Electric; however that dropped 4X this month to $11.82. Considering that it looks like I will run a surplus of power for the year with my 28 panel system despite having a PHEV car, I may consider converting my old noisy gas-fired heating system to partial electric heat pump based heating and cooling to reduce my heating bill and provide more uniform cooling in the summer. read more

Throughout the whole process I was kept informed of exactly, what to expect, and when. The crew always on time did a wonderful job, and each day when they left they made sure my home still looked neat, and tidy. I also received calls from the team at the office seeing if I had any questions, or concerns. Start to finish so simple and straight forward, and my current bills are showing an even greater savings than what I was expecting. Can't recommend them highly enough. read more

I just wanted to continue to give 5 stars to AWS Solar. The measure of a great company is the service they provide after the initial project is complete. AWS has always been there in the nearly two and a half years since I got my solar roof. Tim has answered questions that related to the solar system in regards to other projects I needed to do. I referred my neighbors to AWS Solar and while they were working on the neighbor's system, they noticed an issue with my system and quickly notified me. AWS Solar fixed the issue even when I didn't realize that there was a problem. I'm really happy with their great customer service and would continue to recommend them. read more

This review is long overdue, but the experience here with AWS, Tim and Frank - these are the folks that made a big transition happen and the process was swift and smooth. It was a good leap to go solar. The service and style received was amazing, strategic and the solar is AWESOME! The whole family is thankful for it! read more

Great company. Very happy with them. Tim always gets back to me promptly. I highly recommend them!

This is a long overdue review of AWS Solar. About 2 years ago AWS came and installed 31 panels, new electric panel and level 2 charger. The whole experience was simple and they explained everything and patiently answered all questions as I made a decision on which contractor and what system I was going with. Installation time was great with everything cleaned up properly and painted to match, buried pipes covered back up including the turf. They took care of all permits and dealing with the city and got me a ridiculously good finance deal on the whole lot. What makes AWS even better and what has finally reminded me to write this review is that yesterday, almost 2 years after the job was complete I called for advice on installation of additional panels or a battery "power wall" and was treated like an old friend calling for a chat. Again all questions answered and explanations provided to help me understand the benefits. Or indeed the lack of as we would not benefit from a battery power backup so they did not try to sell me something that would not have been of tangible benefit to me at this time. Thanks guys! Can't recommend AWS Solar enough. read more

I recently relocated to California to work and quickly decided to buy a house so I could CA this beautiful state "home". My main concern was to be able to fit my priorities in the budget. Solar energy was the number one priority and one of my colleague recommended me AWS solar. I contacted them and instantly clicked over the phone, which honestly sold me right away as after only a few minutes of discussion, I knew we were on the same page. Not only they did an amazing job but they also worked with l my concerns, questions AND budget. It has been 4 months now and so far, the best investment I have ever made . I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is considering solar panels! read more

Spoke with Time, their energy coordination manager! Helped me gather research for a school project. Took time out of their day to answer a few questions, very knowledgeable in the field. Thanks Tim! read more

Don't know why there are so few reviews here but I am very happy after one year of having their system. I compared at least 5 companies before deciding to go with AWS. Tim is a true professional and is always there to answer my questions. This is a very trustworthy company: always punctuate, perform what they promised, and most importantly with very very reasonable quotes. They workers are really worth mentioning, Mario and his crew are on time, friendly and clean up every day after work. 4 of my neighbors installed their panels with AWS afterwards. That pretty explains everything I guess. read more

I started the search for solar company to save my electricity bills. I did my own research for around 3 months. AWS Solar was a perfect match for my energy need. Good pricing and service is the key. They answered all my questions related to savings, loan,tax refund and time line. Great Company.I recommend them. read more

Still nothing. AWS has resorted to ignoring the problem. For your own peace of mind, I'd recommend avoiding this company.

Great company that follows their promises and keep high quality of installation work as well as after installation warranty and maintenance service. read more

After doing a ton of research and hunting I decided to go with AWS. They were offering the best panels, best system, at the best price. Tim was amazing! Super responsive, explained everything and took care of dealing with SCE. They were efficient and professional. The roommates didnt even know the panels had been installed. The system has been active for a year now and I am beyond thrilled with AWS. We are now in the process of looking for another house that currently has Leased panels. I asked Tim to review the contract and to no surprise the lease system is terrible. He has given us a lot to think about moving forward. A year later and AWS is still there to help out. Seriously the best! read more

I opened a second printing location for my company and I needed to distribute the electricity throughout 5 different locations in my warehouse from the main panel. The guys are extremely professional and work super fast. They did an excellent job and I'm shocked how affordable it turned out to be judging by the quality of their work. Thank you very much! Highly recommended :) read more

Great experience from the beginning, was not the best offer but the selection and their professionalism made me choose this company.

If you are looking for a respectable company to install solar, I recommend Tim and Frank. These are no nonsense guys. They showed up to my house, we threw up a ladder and were on my roof in minutes. No time wasted sitting in my living room in front of a computer screen. If you are looking for some honest answers and don't want to install a system yourself, this company is for you. read more

Excellent solar company. Product and installation price was reasonable. Installation was well managed including being timely. Tim Broughton was straightforward, helpful, responsive and personable. He kept us informed and led us through every step of the process. Any question he would answer promptly and any concern was resolved to our satisfaction. Field staff were also friendly and professional. All contract terms were executed exceptionally well. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. read more

I started thinking about solar energy many years ago when leasing was very popular. At the time I could not justify the cost of leasing because my savings would have been only a few dollars a month. I had to drop the whole idea at the time. During the pandemic I started thinking about purchasing solar energy and had online sessions with several expensive solar providers, this time their prices were so high that it was difficult to justify their cost against savings. Around March 2021 I used EnergySage, and through them had about five proposals from different solar energy providers. I have to say their prices were more or less the same, but I felt very comfortable with AWS. Tim Broughton, who has been with the company for years, was great. He was always available to answer my calls and texts. I had many questions throughout the process, sometimes I even asked the same question over and over again, but Tim answered all of my questions with great patience, If he did not know the answer to my question he would say let me ask Frank and he would immediately come back to me with a good answer. Tim is very helpful and has a great attitude, although we have never met, but it feels like I have known him for a long time, like a good friend. I would say Tim was the reason I eventually decided to go with AWS. I would recommend AWS for residential solar installation without any reservation. The permit took a little longer than I expected but once they got the permit they installed the whole system next day on 07/09/2021. The installers were also very professional and they did a great job and left the site very clean. The work passed inspection without any problems and the system has been working since. read more

I did a lot of research before selecting AWS Solar. There are three things to consider when selecting a solar contractor. First, they have to be a quality solar contractor with a proven record. Second, they have to use quality solar panels. And, third they have to be top rate roofing contractor. These guys are all of the above. They provided great service not only during construction, but well after they had been paid and the system had been commissioned and I had questions about the utility bill. Tim gave me the very best customer service I could ask for. if I could give them 6 stars, I would. read more

In making the decision to go solar, I spoke with representatives from ten companies. I eventually requested bids from five. AWS was by far the best choice for several reasons. First, they were 100% professional through every step, with Tim willing and capable of answering all of my questions. They were also Covid-safe. Salesmen from the other companies came off as sleazy and less than forthcoming about details of their offers. AWS was clear and honest from the start. Second, no part of the job was outsourced. Third, their warranty and price cannot be beat for the quality of panels and inverters that are used (one company I spoke with even claimed "we'll beat anybody else's bids, but when I sent them the AWS bid they never got back to me). Fourth, they could do the job quickly. Once we signed, we had solar installed within a month, and we were online a few weeks later. The app that lets you monitor your solar output is also easy to use and free. I would 100% recommend AWS. Their ratings are five stars for a reason. And they are genuine (AWS at no point asked me or incentivized me to provide an online review; the people leaving reviews here are doing it because they are genuinely impressed with the company). read more

Definitely recommended. I had a small job of solar panel installation and I feel that I was helped very professionally from the first phone call and walk through at the site job, until the guys left a clean working place behind. All my question were answered by the team and I even got a little education about how solar works and the benefits of having one. The team leader is involved at all time and the process is smoothly. Keep up the good work! read more
