Their pricing was the best of the three contractors we considered, and they were also the only company willing to set up a non-export system so we could preserve our NEM 2.0 status and still get permission to operate from PG&E. That was a huge advantage for us, since other contractors were pushing us toward NEM 3.0. Their sales team was patient, helpful, and not pushy at all. They walked us through our options clearly, were honest about scheduling constraints, and still found a way to get us in on a pretty good timeline. They also came up with creative solutions when other issues popped up, which we really appreciated. We're very happy so far with our 14 additional panels and Tesla Powerwall 3.

He was responsive throughout our whole interaction and he ranks up there as one of the most thorough, helpful, and transparent roofing experts I've spoken to. You can tell he loves his vocation, treats his everyone with respect & dignity, and expects high quality workmanship from his team. Our quote was competitive and within a few thousand compared to two other similar companies. While we opted to go with another provider for our roof (it was truly a difficult choice), we'll certainly return to Volt when we're ready to install solar due to the customer service and attentiveness I experienced during the estimate process. I am always skeptical when I see companies with a skewed number of reviews, and I rarely provide a 5 star rating, but I think it's certainly deserved in this case.

I cannot imagine there are many homeowners who are experts when it comes to HVAC systems. I know…read morefor a fact that I am not, it was with great trepidation that I started our search for a new system since our 40 year old system was on it's last legs, and another Sacramento summer was at hand. So I reached out to three local companies, all of whom came highly recommended, for proposals to replace the entire system, duct work included. I then put all three into ChatGPT and here is the one comment about Phoenix Energy Solutions' proposal that was the most salient. "Those are signs that the contractor is paying attention to installation quality rather than simply replacing equipment." The price was also very competitive and when the entire scope of the proposals where compared, it was the best from a cost perspective. Of course a proposal on paper, is just that, words on paper. Now it's time to see if the work stands up to the words. Yes, yes they did. Five stars here. Communication was clear, scheduling the job was prompt. The job took two days and our new Amana 3-ton 17+ SEER Variable Heat Pump system was installed and working beautifully. Now, keep in mind this is a very intrusive process, but Micah and his crew were conscientious and careful in our home. I can say without hesitation, Micah and Phoenix Energy Solutions checks all the boxes. Knowledgable - Check Thorough - Check Competitive - Check Communication - Check Honest - Check Quality - Check

I first used Phoenix Energy Solutions back in 2013 when they came and turned a 'must replace your…read morewhole unit (that was then about 9yo)' into a well-explained $600 job. Quote from my original review: ******** "At some point, we will need a bigger unit to accomodate our actual square footage, but for now, the house is cool, comfortable (it runs warmer on the kid's side, but well below the danger point of when we didn't have AC-I used fans and kept the kids in the master suite with me). And when we DO replace our unit-I don't need Yelp-I'll just call Phoenix Energy Systems and you should too! PS-this is the service that made me join Yelp, so I can give Rich and PES 5 stars (and not 10 as others have noted)." *********** Since then, I've been on PES REST plan (their annual maintenance contract for 1 AC and 1 heater/furnace tuneup per year). I don't review routine service calls, but go ahead and imagine about 3 dozen 5 star reviews for keeping my systems running and functional as they met and then exceeded normal life for these units. Well, all good things must come to an end. The AC sealant gave out, flooding my attic and into my master bathroom. After much consideration, I came to realize that it was time to replace the AC, and possibly the equally old and increasingly troublesome heater. So Micah came over and presented several options and discussed which ones were SMUD rebate eligible. I went with the bundled (and SMUD rebate eligible) AC + Heat Pump combo. Micah and his son (already an industry veteran and very capable) arrived bright and early (e.g. right on time) and 10 hours later - old units removed, new units installed. The big surprise was *nothing* - e.g. none of the clunks grinds, whooshes, strained sounds of the old system. Just nice cool air evenly distributed throughout my 3/2 bungalow. The old system kept the master suite at temperature, but ran hot summers and cold winters in the kid's rooms at the other end of the house. Remember folks, true power doesn't roar - it whispers. And of course, thank you Phoenix Energy Solutions for fair pricing and top notch professional HVAC services.

I wanted to get solar for my house and I got quotes from all the "big boys" - the top sellers in…read moreour 3 county area. Then a friend of mine recommended Tim Weeks, owner of Cam Electric. My friend lives down Salmon Falls Road in El Dorado Hills, in a secluded gated community where there are a bunch recently built mini-mansions right on the lakefront. It turns out that Cam Electric did the solar for almost all these homes. When I got apples for apples quotes, Cam Electric came in over a third lower than my next lowest quote. When I showed the next lowest bidder (I won't say their name, but they are very reputable and they also did my pool water solar heating system) the quote for the exact same system, they were shocked. They didn't specifically know about Cam Electric, but they tried everything they could to scare me out of going with them. They said that for this price, Cam Electric would just shove the solar panel ground mount poles into the dirt instead of into concrete. This wasn't true. Tim put everything in concrete pillars in my 40 panel ground mount system. They said that Cam Electric was probably just "a guy and his truck", and do I want to make a long term investment with "a guy and his truck"? Well, this is a family owned business and I cannot even start to explain how much heart and soul Tim and his son put into giving me not only incredible pricing, but also an incredible customer service experience. Here are just a few examples * They came out many times during many times of the day to see exactly where shadows go on my 5 acre property. We looked at every surrounding tree and where they cast shade, and also all the structures (my house and 2 sheds). He even made recommendations on which trees to trim and which ones not to. He ended up finally finding THE perfect spot where not a single tree needed to be trimmed. By the way, Tim charges less for ground mount than roof mount - all the competition charged more for ground mount, not sure why. * There was never a time where I called and he didn't answer. We did have some issues with the transmitter box that was to send the panel utilization and production data to an app in my phone. It was nothing related to Cam Electric, it was related to AT&T/Yahoo firewalls and also the transmitter unit itself. Every time I called, he figured out a way to drive 20 miles same day to come look at it, latest the next day. It got to the point where I forced him to take some extra money because he was handling issues that were outside of his scope. He never complained or said anything though. * I have animals on the property and was worried they would rough up the panels. He put t-posts I had laying around the property into the ground and tied a rope around it, so that they couldn't get to it. I ended up taking that down because they love the summer time shade and don't bother the panels, but Tim did this over and above at his cost. I also recently had some electrical work done in my house by Cam Electric. I added to the scope once he came out, and he needed to make a 2nd trip the next day, but he didn't charge me for the 2nd house call. And his fees were so reasonable. I had an electrical problem just this morning and I texted him at 6:30AM. At 7AM he was on the phone with me and walking me through how to fix the issue. It was so easy, but I didn't know how to fix it. He just wants happy customers and doesn't think about dollar signs every time you need something. I've worked with many contractors, and have always noticed that the day before they have my money and the day after they have my money are two different days. I never get that feeling with Cam Electric. This was some of the best money I've ever spent, and now I have a trusted electrician that I never need to haggle with or worry about post sales service, and I also never need to put such jobs out to bid. I just go to Tim and know he will be fair and reasonable and will be there to help me. If you need electrical work or ESPECIALLY if you are thinking about solar, I can't recommend Cam Electric and Tim Weeks highly enough.

I'm already seeing the kind of production and self-consumption I expected, and I'm on track for a much lower PG&E bill with a roughly four-year payback.
