    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.

    I had a belly laugh when I read the " sugar coated reviews re Pride electric…read more They were perpetually late, unprofessional insulting arrogant prima Donna's and impolite/rude! Back in July I had them route power up to my shop which was 1/2 conducted already and install a Generac generator to my home (which was off the grid ) with wiring and the rest of the conduit!. Owner claimed to be Generac certified but Generac / Sol arc stated he wasn't registered as certified to their company' as a technician I'm wondering what kind of business delivers a " supposedly new 22 kw Generac generator with dents in all four points of it's lid without even an apology or an attempt to " make restitution. Owner had an oral fixation ( smoked around home leaving his cigarette butts which he failed to pick up Technician he hired had 2 personalities and badmouthed his owner to me 1-1 but when the owner showed up he kissed the owners butt and pulled a 180 and said negative insulting innuendos about me causing me of not listening ( I specifically stated that I experienced hearing loss due to a bad inner ear infection as a child and tried to understand their hi falutent electrical jargon ) as I attempted to physically feed wire and help out where I could to expedite the Instalation process. I even supplied a 26 S series battery which the tobacco chewing technician hastily put in before checking the battery tray to see if there was sand debris which was present . The owner was suppose to help me obtain a surety bond from the prior electrician service who did not install the sol arc system 100 % correctly but he went " cold turkey" claiming I got a great deal on the install and because of that he felt ripped off and therefore wanted no more contact. If the iowner underbid the project this was his fault and he is responsible and should not place the blame on his customers! The owner kept finding lil problems with my sol arc system ( 1 due to his own misdiagnosis). He stated my panels were only putting out 30 % which he stated had to do with the panels or the inverters but he failed to take into acct that I was off grid and 100% panel output was therefore not indicated nor required with the 6 batteries I was using and what I required to power so the inverters may have been retuned for this purpose . I am grateful for what was performed however no customer should have to undergo the abuse which was liken to " Rawhide meets Mr Rogers"!!!' Still trying to get rid of the funny taste in my mouth.

    Chico Solar Works - This is the scratch

    Chico Solar Works

    (8 reviews)

    I would have given them a 5 star review if not for two disappointments given at the bottom…read more I went with Chico Solar Works because they could also replace the roof (Chico Roofing Company) and I was willing to pay a premium to have a single company to deal with if anything went wrong. Also, they have been around for quite a while, I knew a few people who had used them for solar and their prices weren't out of the ballpark. Once the installation began it went quickly and smoothly, taking only a couple of days for installation and PG&E approved the installation within a few days. Note that they also had to upgrade our breaker box to 200A and they did a great job of matching the adobe texture and paint color where they had to cut out for the larger box. There were two things that were a bit disappointing. One was that the monitoring app showed incorrect "Consumed" energy information. It was including the produced power so when the sun came up my Consumed power went up at the same time as the produced power from the panels went up. According to Enphase this is a rather common issue and yet it took a couple of weeks to get Chico Solar to recognize there was a problem, which included my talking to Enphase a couple of times. Even after it was agreed there was a problem it took another month to get the issue resolved. It was disappointing that the people who do the installations couldn't recognize there was an issue even when I described it to them. The second issue is that (at least) one of the panels has a scratch a couple of inches long. At least initially this is not going to be an issue but I suppose it could lead to early failure. I have not reported that to Chico Solar. I should also mention that all the installed equipment was as quoted except for the panels. The panels were from a different supplier and had an additional 10W output with nearly the same specs otherwise.

    1. My Solar system was down 7 months in 2019 - 2020 and…read morenever was compensated! Workers came out and worked on my system three times never talking to me just leaving door hangers saying the came out. 2. They designed a system to meet only 80% of my needs why on earth would I want that ? They shorted the panels I needed and I would've paid for and thought I was paying fir a system that would zero out my PG&E bill . 3. My annual True up has been running $3500.00 4. They owe me 12k the difference between the financed price vs the cash price since 2017 the one year anniversary of the system I got in March 2016 . * Because I thought the two sales guys where very knowledgeable and helpful , friendly. I told them to add $500 for them to split. Thus the financed price was to be 39,000 plus the $500 totaling $39,500 which I paid thinking I would get the cash difference once the Hero program informed them it was paid in full . The county refunded their Hero set up fees around $3000.00

    We have a complete solar system including battery backup sold and installed by Westhaven Power…read more My wife and I had been looking for Solar for over two years. We had various companies come to our home for presentations and quotes. We finally settled on Westhaven Power. We liked the fact that they had been in business for a long time and they oversaw the project from start to finish. Our system is working great. We have experienced four blackouts by PG&E, which didn't affect us since we have the battery backup. A company is only as good as it's staff. We had excellent people from Westhaven working on our project. I want to give kudos to all the people we interacted with: We had John who was our salesperson he was always there day and night to answer our questions and take care of problems. The team leader for installation was Jerry. He and his team did a great job. The final inspector was Jason. All are great representatives for Westhaven. I also want to give special Kudos to Grace who works in administration. She notified us at different points in the installation to let us know when things were going to be done. She was also our contact for warranty work.

    Just had a cold call from a guy that speaks very litle english wanting to set up a service call…read morethat I tried over a year ago and wanted $450.00 to show up and then another $450.00 to do anything. Talk about a total ripe off. NEVER BUY FROM THESE GUYS. Oh Forgot to mention this is the same company that did not do what they were told to do then started a fire on the site because they installed it wrong the first time. Only had 2 guys that seemed to have a clue of what they were doing but thier hands are tied. I hope they find a good company to work for because this one is not them.

    I spent about three years shopping for a solar energy system. I received quotes from a few vendors…read moreand spent countless hours reading on the Internet. I was very concerned about warranty issues and also about how the installation would affect my S-tile roof. One company misled me about their warranty coverage (I found out by reading the fine print) and another failed to give me a copy of their warranty after three requests. There were a few quirks to my installation that would require some creativity and care, and I was not encouraged by the lack of accurate information or personalized attention I received from these other vendors. I thought perhaps I would not ever have solar on my house. Based mostly on Yelp reviews, I decided to contact United Sun Energy. The first call I received back was from Phillip Egan himself. Subsequently, I found everyone involved to be professional, helpful, and friendly. Shawn is an easy to talk to no-pressure sales / coordinator. He showed me some new hardware that they use for S-tile roof installations that no-one else had mentioned. The office staff is pleasant and efficient. They have experienced solar experts handling design and installation issues. When the unique circumstances of my house and my requirements came into play, my request for a detailed plan was answered with a visit to my house by their project designer and by Mr. Egan. They crafted an excellent solution on the spot. They were patient and cheerfully re-wrote the proposed contract (which is detailed and in plain language) as I changed my mind a few times regarding some of the equipment to be installed. Theirs is the only contract among the vendors that I contacted that specifically warrants against damage to your roof. A quiet and very polite crew came to the house to install the panels. They were extremely careful during the installation, and left my roof and property in better condition than when they arrived. Ryan came next, and installed the electrical system. He is a craftsman and and gentleman and did a superlative job. I cannot say enough about what a great job he did. The system has been in place for about three months, and is working perfectly - exactly as promised. It took a long time to find the right team to install my system, but I am glad I was patient and diligent. The whole process, which I feared would be an ordeal, was extremely easy and pleasant. The cost was exactly as promised in the contract, with no surprises. I wholeheartedly recommend this company if you are considering solar.

    We took our time in choosing a solar company to purchase our system from. We got quotes from 4…read morelocal businesses and even from the energy sage website. United Sun Energy was the last company we contacted and I'm glad we did. Kevin was super easy to work with, he explained everything in detail and was very upfront about the whole process. What made United Sun Energy stand out from all the others was Kevin did not have a predetermined product he was trying to sell us. He came out and looked at our home and talked to us about what we were wanting from our system, then they designed a system to fit those needs. But obviously cost is what everyone wants to know, and United Sun Energy came in under all the other local companies and their system will produce more energy. So less money more energy, seems to good to be true but it isn't (more on that later), on top of that, the warranty that United Sun Energy offers is better than all the competitors with all parts, labor, and even the roof covered, you can't really beat it. The process was extremely pain free from signing the contract to being up and running. I think the whole process took 2-3 weeks. They were good about contacting us and keeping us updated with what was happening. They took care of all the paperwork with permits and PG&E as well as the financing company. Thats another area were Kevin outshined the competitors, he explained the financing options in detail and very clearly. Just be aware that if one place promises you a low interest rate, you are more than likely paying a fee to buy down the rate as financial institutions don't do low interest rate loans for solar projects. Kevin was upfront about these options and showed us the best financing options for us based on our specific goals. We have had our system now for over a month and I'm happy to say that our system is actually out performing what United Sun Energy guaranteed us. I am confident that we will not face a big true up bill at the end of the year and we will be able to keep our house a much more comfortable temperature during the hot summer months. There is no doubt in my mind we made the right choice and if you are considering a solar system for your home, you should definitely get a quote from United Sun Energy, you won't be sorry! Thanks Kevin!
