Soo.... FINALLY I can post my review of ACR Solar (and Roofing). Understand I had to at least wait…read morefor a few good rains to say I LOVE my new roof and we are in fact "water proof"! I have never been so impressed with the customer service of any company as much as I am with ACR. They did the solar for a new pool last year 2021 and it worked perfectly allowing us the most comfortable swimming experience in our new pool. That was last year... Next up our 25 year-old roof was looking tired. Because of my solar experience with ACR's amazing staff (both in the field and in the office), I decided to get a bid (1 of 4) from them on a new roof this year (2022). Oh my gosh Joe Petersen runs a smooth, courteous, professional company with an awesome team of workers. Not one person was rude, lazy or "questionable". I am one who asks MANY questions because I just like to know and understand "stuff". Joe was so very patient with me. (Thank you Joe, lol). I always try to HIRE LOCAL whenever possible but get at least 3 bids regardless. This LOCAL company came in competitive, were pretty quick to get me on the schedule, and once the job began did not waste a bit of my time or theirs. Thank you so much for your excellent service on both of my jobs. I was able to stay calm and confident that we were in good hands. ~ Janelle

Specifically, Neil Hurlock, did a great job getting started & pushing the project over the finish line. Magic Solar handled the permitting and approval side of the process. The panels are very high quality & a good price when I compared with other vendors. I got quotes from 3 vendors. Magic Solar had the best solar panels for the best overall price. They installed the panels ahead of schedule The solar panels come with a helpful app that shows how much power I'm producing and exporting into the grid. The solar energy tax credit expires on December 31, 2025. Now is the time to get solar panels.

Thanks Volt! I highly recommend this roofing and solar company. Buck and his team are great: very…read moreknowledgable, hard-working, and have amazing attention to detail. On top of that, they're just good down-to-earth people. We hired them last spring to re-roof our home, replace some rotted eaves and fascia and replace our old solar system (it was inefficient and malfunctioned quite a bit). We are very happy with what we got for the price we paid, it was a good value. It looks so much better than it did before and is consistently producing more energy. I feel like they helped us make the right decisions through the whole process, especially for system size to be able to keep our NEM1 status. The new roof looks great and works really well. I waited almost a year to write this review to make sure there wasn't any water intrusion during the winter storms - not a drop anywhere. They were in the mid-high range in pricing on the bids we got, but I'm happy we spent a little more went with them. Can a roof be sexy? Ours sure is. All in all, if you need a new roof or solar system or home battery, or all of the above, call Volt. They are a competent and professional group of local people who are really f**king good at what they do.

After much research, we had the top six companies quote us estimates for solar on our Loomis house…read more I noticed that each company explained the process differently; some explanations were good, while others left me more confused. When Buck arrived, he stayed until we were satisfied with our understanding, and I learned so much more from his explanations than from all other companies. Considering they were also roofers and understood the difficulty with our high-pitched roof, we placed more confidence in them than the others. Hence, we chose them after a month of research and estimates. Kristen, their assistant manager, was very communicative throughout the entire project, keeping us informed about what was happening behind the scenes with permits, PG&E approvals, and the team's schedule. That helped us understand the project's time frames. Bucks crew -- Jared, Sean, and the others -- were friendly and professional. They worked quickly and efficiently to finish the job, paying close attention to detail. They went above and beyond, including sharing additional insights about our gutters and attic. I could tell they understood the bigger picture, and I am grateful for their effort. After researching many companies, we are happy we chose Volt Modern and will definitely recommend them to others looking for solar installation and roofing services.

Outstanding Service & Professionalism - Highly Recommend Sunwave Energy!…read more Working with Jose and the team at Sunwave Energy has been an incredible experience from start to finish. From our very first meeting, Jose was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping us find the right solar solution for our home. He took the time to walk us through every step of the process and made sure we understood all of our options. The installation of our brand new solar system and backup batteries went smoothly and was completed on time. The crew was respectful, efficient, and clearly experienced--they treated our home with care and kept the worksite clean throughout the project. What really stood out was the level of communication. Jose kept us updated every step of the way and was always available to answer any questions, even after the system was up and running. We feel confident knowing we have a reliable and responsive team behind our energy system. Now that everything is up and running, our energy bills have dropped significantly, and we have the peace of mind that comes with backup power during outages. It's a great feeling to be more energy independent and to know we worked with a company that truly cares about their customers. If you're considering solar, do yourself a favor and call Jose at Sunwave Energy. You won't regret it!

I was contacted by Spartan staff Diego Nuñez after responding to a link survey about adding solar…read more Spartan was the first company to contact me and made an appointment to speak to me via phone since I said I did not need an in person consultation. I was interested in adding panels to my existing older solar roof panels. My panels are working well, but I could use more power. Was also interested on behalf of my daughter who wanted extra panels after adding an EV and hot tub. After a couple of tel/cons with Diego, we determined in both our cases, it would not be worth adding additional panels because our True-ups were not high enough annually to warrant a system purchase. We had an extensive discussion about the fact that there are no more perks or discounts to install solar and things have just gotten more expensive over the last year, with loss of rebates, etc. Diego was very honest that in both of our cases, the cost of upgrading our mutual systems was not worth the money it would cost. I truly appreciated his honesty as he talked himself out of not one job but two. Highly recommend this company for both staff customer service in getting to me quickly, speaking to me extensively twice and Diego's honesty in being upfront about in our case, the bang just not being worth the buck. I actually felt like I could trust the staff and these days, this is important. Thank you, Spartan.

Also if the power goes out the battery works great and fridge, freezer some lights and electric sockets power on after only a few seconds using the battery power. The system would be perfect if we could still have water too but this is not possible because the pump is not compatible with the battery because it is 40 amps instead of 30. This is not Sunworks fault though For water the portable generator is necessary when the power goes out. I would highly recommend this company for solar power.

We had a brand new three-ton AC unit installed along with planned HVAC system updates, with the…read moreexpectation that our airflow and temperature imbalance issues would be resolved in our 972 sq ft home. From the start, the process was confusing and did not inspire confidence. We were initially told the HVAC system would be replaced, but later informed that the space would not accommodate it as planned. The scope of work seemed unclear and ultimately was not completed as originally explained. Since installation, we have continued to experience significant temperature imbalance throughout the home. The living room becomes very cold, while the bedroom remains warm and uncomfortable--especially at night. This has been a consistent issue for the past year. Additionally, the system appears to be oversized for a home of this size. Installing a three-ton unit in a 972 sq ft space raises concerns about improper system sizing, which can lead to short cycling, poor airflow distribution, and uneven temperatures--exactly what we are experiencing. Communication has also been extremely frustrating. We have struggled to get clear answers or meaningful follow-up regarding these ongoing issues, despite raising concerns multiple times. We were recently informed that the project passed inspection, but passing inspection does not reflect real-world performance. A properly installed HVAC system should provide consistent comfort throughout the home, and that is not happening here. After a full year of unresolved issues, incomplete work, and lack of communication, we cannot recommend this company.

These rebates were promised to be sent to me within 60 days after installation. I have still not received them and today is February 2026. This company installed my HVAC units in December 2024 (total $17,000+ ) and also promised rebates totaling $10,000 to be processed and sent to me within 60 days. I accepted a 12 months no interest loan. My plan was to put the $10,000 towards the loan and payoff the remaining balance in its entirety. I have reached out and communicated with the owner Jesse on a monthly and sometimes weekly basis to no avail. I've only received excuses as for the reasons rebates hasn't been processed. Also, I must mention I referred 2 customers to Clear Efficiency and their installs were completed in approx February and March; they BOTH have received their rebate checks. It is now February 2026 and the loan is no longer no interest a the monthly payment is astronomical and not in my financial budget. This long process has stressed me out, caused emotional harm, and the inability to pay the huge monthly payment. ~signed a very frustrated customer !
