Solectric - Freshly cleaned panels, after a year of installation - Solar Installation Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

They helped us select the right system and number of solar panels. Installation of solar panels and a battery pack was fast once it got scheduled. The team was friendly and took care of everything. The system works great and was well worth it. read more

Knowledgeable and friendly. Just took some time to align schedules. They were able to troubleshoot and fix my Sunpower Sunvault solar battery system. They were also reasonable when quoting additional electrical work. Will use again! read more

Great customer service and came recommended by a coworker. I'm giving them 4/5 only because we couldn't afford the upgrade to our house at the time. read more

Tech was late on first appointment and I had to push service to another day. He showed up in a non-company vehicle, borrowed my ladders without asking. Their payment options for service are horrible. Only take cash, Venmo or Zelle. I do not recommend. read more

I have had the good fortune of working with Solectric for my initial solar installation a number of years ago and recently when I had to have my roof replaced. In summary, every aspect of this business is exceptional! From initial contact, ongoing communication, the project proposals / quotes, the project scheduling, the project execution, work quality, problem solving & overall value - every aspect of this business is terrific. Highly recommended! read more

Solectric, once a dealer for SunPower which is now bankrupt, provided outstanding diagnostic services when our SunPower Hub+ failed. They subsequently replaced our Hub+ communication apparatus and included a three-year warranty. We had decided to junk the Hub+ and battery because we could not find any other solar company to repair our system. Solectric's CEO convinced us not to spend nearly $20,000 replace and install another inverter and Powerwall battery We lost sleep over this effort and 5 weeks with useless system. We took a chance. This company is well run, support staff competent and repair personnel certified, skilled and quite able. I would recommend them. read more

I had them install ring cameras. They were done great and professionally. My fuse also kept tripping, and they solved it in a timely manner. There could have lots of different reasons, but they solved it. Experienced! I love it read more

Daniel and his team were superb. I came into this not knowing a ton, but the team all did a fantastic job explaining each step. They did all the extras required for picky Davis inspectors. From sales to equipment to project manager, all kept me in the loop during the process. Solectric handled PG&E, made sure someone was here for all inspections and appointments. It has been a year and I couldn't be happier. In case you are on the fence and not sure, this is your message to go for it. My bills are low if not zero, my tax return was great. I met with a lot of companies, but Solectric's service was above and beyond. read more

Solectric - My PG&E at-a-glance savings this month with Solectric solar panels. - Solar Installation Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

This company pays attention to detail and does whatever it takes to complete the job to everyone's satisfaction. We installed solar panels and a battery, and when unanticipated issues arose, all were completely addressed. Half a year later, we installed additional panels after switching from a gas furnace to a heat pump. We continue to be pleased with all we asked them to do. Our energy costs are now 10% or less of what they used to be. read more

Did not deal with this company after that quote was twice as much as anybody else plus they tried to tell me oh wow we put the solar panels and parallel not serial so one blows out there big deal . read more

While I didn't actually end up doing business with Solectric based on other needs, I was extremely impressed with this company. Responsiveness, professionalism and going the extra mile were so appreciated Iain Moor was just top notch in terms of his hustle and work ethic. read more

Getting solar for your home is a huge investment in which everyone recommends you do your research and get a few quotes prior to deciding on which company you want to go with. Dan, the owner of Soletric, was one of the first companies we reached out to to get a quote solar for our home. He came to our house and explained everything to us in layman terms. He did not try to pressure us into anything at all and was super friendly throughout the whole process. After getting a few quotes, we decided to go with Dan. However, I ran into some issues with my credit which affected with me getting a loan. Took more than six months to finally rectify the issue and not once did Dan pressure or rush me. I tried to email him periodically to keep him up to date on where we were at. I didn't want him to think I was pulling his leg. When I finally fixed my credit and got a loan approval, I emailed Dan immediately and we got the ball rolling. The installation was quick. It took two full days for the panels to get up to the roof. Unfortunately, as we were close to completion pending an inspection by the City of West Sacramento, the coronavirus pandemic hit and shut everything down and, therefore, we cannot get an inspector out to do the inspection. So for a good month my panels were just sitting up in my roof collecting dust instead of energy. Then one day out of the blue, Dan emails me and tells us the city is opened and he is going to schedule an inspection so we can finally break the shackles of PG&E. From the email informing us that we can get the ball rolling in getting our house inspected to finally our solar going online officially, I want to say it took a week or a little over a week. Getting solar with Dan and Soletric was such a positive experience and we will not hesitate to recommend Dan and his team to friends and family that are considering solar. Dan makes things easy and breaks things down for you in a way that's easy to understand. What I loved was that we dealt with the owner directly and not some salesperson trying to sell us on solar. I think it's pretty cool that he's also local so we're also supporting local businesses and not some huge company. Thank you, Dan! It's been a pleasure working with you! #ThankYouThursday read more

We chose Solectric as our solar installer using SunPower solar panels. We have been highly pleased with their efficiency, timely install and professionalism. All the workers were helpful and explained the process thoroughly. Jessica in Operations was my main contact and she answered my emails or phone calls quickly and even though I had numerous questions she was always patient and listened well. We chose to purchase our solar because we believe we will be in our home for many years. The financial end of SunPower was very helpful and showed us our options and discussed the pros and cons of each option. It is nice to have a solar company right in West Sacramento as well. I would highly recommend them. read more

I had Solectric install solar panels on my home after researching many other companies. Dan was able to answer all my questions and his staff was very easy to work with. I was on the roof during the entire install to checkout their work and can attest they are very detail oriented with great workmanship. Solectric was able to install a system meeting 100% of my energy goals. I'm very happy with the company and it feels great going solar. read more

Solectric moved our Tesla invertor for us. Their techs were responsive, easy to work with, and got the work done in a single day. We were in a bind before this, but they were able to add us to their schedule quickly. Highly recommend! read more

Having spent several weeks back and forth with the big "national" solar installers, I decided to check with a few local companies. Solectric was a breath of fresh air, they pick up the phone and answer your questions in real time! No uploading dozens of pictures, or waiting and waiting for a response from an algorithm. Or getting passed around to different sales people and having to explain your situation over and over again. After a few conversations and an in person site visit, we approved the plan, they had materials on hand, permits, installed and producing was only about three weeks. From first phone call to producing power, faster than "big T" can respond to a redesign request. Very happy with our new system, and rest assured SunPower equipment is high quality and a good value. We recommend Solectric to everyone in Sacramento. read more

I hired Solectric to install a large solar project (35 panels). The panels they bid are top quality SunPower. 25 year labor and part guarantee. Impressive. Daniel and his crew were professional and did very clean work. They ran all the conduit pipe thru the attic so all you see on my roof are the panels. It's a very clean look. In addition I had a level 2 charger installed. Again very professional. Check out my pics. read more

Terrific company! My experience from initial contact through project completion was fantastic. Excellent communication, processes, execution, service and results. Every member of the team involved was great - special thanks to Jessica & Ian! If you are considering a home solar project, I strongly encourage you to contact Solectric! read more

Let me start with telling you that I'm the type of person that will read reviews for hours before deciding on a product. I subscribe to Consumer Reports and will check their ratings for just about anything before I buy something new (example...white cloud toilet paper is far better reviewed than any other toilet paper, and much cheaper). I probably spent a dozen or so hours sorting through reviews regarding solar contractors, solar panels and inverters. By the time I actually reached out to several contractors for estimates, I had already read through dozens of reviews and spoken to neighbors on Nextdoor.com who had used different contractors. When the estimates started to come in, they were all within about 5-10% of each other, with solectric and one other company being tied for the most competitive bid. However, with as much as I was spending for my system overall, I wasn't going to make my decision based solely on who could do it for the least amount of money. The estimates I got were all using the same product; so the difference in price, at least from my perspective, was the level of service I would be receiving throughout the installation and beyond. With that in mind, I sent each contractor an email with a few basic questions about their proposal. Daniel at solectric was the most responsive by far, and had the least "generic" response. Just from his emails I could tell how much pride he took in his work. He offered to walk with me around my neighborhood and point out imperfections in other installations that he would not tolerate in his own work. I didn't take him up on the offer because I was already sold after exchanging a few emails with him. After I signed the contract and the building permit was approved, it only took a day and a half to get the system installed. Getting a SMUD inspector out for the final approval was actually the longest part in the whole process, but Daniel did a good job of cc'ing me on emails he sent to SMUD and what the status was of the final inspection. When SMUD finally made it out and gave the go-ahead to turn the system on, Daniel was out the next morning to turn on the system and show me how everything worked (he also brought a 12-pack of my favorite beer!). I'm really glad I went with solectric, and I recommend them to anybody who is considering solar. Throughout the whole process, I was treated as if I was a personal friend of the owner. read more

We purchased an additional Sunpower 3.35 kW system last November. We took our time seeking bids from mutliple businesses. Solectric was very competitive with their final pricing and won my business. The installation staff took time to answer all my questions and explain the process. It was a easy installation process and I recommend Solectric to anyone. Now that the days are getting sunnier, our expanded system is working great! read more

This is finally an honest solar company. Oh mah goodness, how crooked are the wall street goons who have invaded the solar space with long term leases, and costly financing schemes. How crooked are the suppliers of panels and equipment, who charge an arm and a leg for grade c Chinese crap. How crooked and difficult is the regulatory pathway, including the utility company! Oh what a strain to keep it all straight, if only we could be more like Germany and have a streamlined cost effective solar economy. That said... Daniel knows all the in and outs. He will guide you and protect you in this brave new world. He is knowledgeable and experienced. Just ask him, you will hear wisdom in response Hire him for your solar needs you will be glad you did. read more

Solectric - Lovin my qcells! - Solar Installation Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

We just finished a significant solar installation with Daniel and his company, Solectric, and could not have been happier. Besides the favorable reviews and strong references, one of the primary reasons we selected Solectric was Daniel's hands-on, personal involvement. Happy to report that is exactly what we got and the experience was terrific. Daniel is a true professional and took the time to make sure we understood all aspects of what we were buying. Daniel made the whole process smooth and even helped us with an un-related issue that the inspection turned up. Highly recommend Solectric! read more

Dan and the entire Solectric team was fantastic to work with for our Enphase battery installation. Dan is a great resource on the various options of battery technology. His pricing was fair and he was never pushy. His team was respectful of my house and property; the installation is professional and clean. Solectric coordinated the City of Oakland and PGE for permitting, shutoffs, service upgrades, which was no easy task. I am glad I chose to go with Solectric and will be using them for future panel upgrades. read more

This is the third time we have added solar panels and by far our best experience! Unlike other companies, with salespeople, then engineering, then installers (all of whom seem to have different ideas and don't talk to each other), Daniel takes charge from the beginning. Planning to final installation, he is completely involved and makes sure things go well. Daniel made sure we got the system we need, at the best price, and even worked through the holidays to complete before Dec 31, to make sure we were able to get the tax credit for the current year. I could not have had a better experience. Wholeheartedly endorse Daniel and his company! read more

We chose Solectric as it is a local company. Through out the installation process they were very communicative, professional and timely. There electrician Alex is phenomenal!! read more

The Solectric team was very easy to work with. They explained everything, are up a schedule and followed it and provided excellent workmanship. read more

Solectric installed solar panels on our home in May. We have been enjoying lower SMUD bills ever since. Dan and his crew were instrumental in the HOA approval process for solar in our community. They handled everything required for submission, including expert drawings and explanations of materials used. The installers were professional and friendly, and very respectful of our property. They left our home spotless. We would highly recommend going with Solectric. Their prices were competitive, and their service and follow-up was responsive. read more

Thank you Daniel! We had six different solar company offering their services but none of them could convince us. We always found something that we didn't like. Daniel was totally different, he explained everything step-by-step and he went beyond just basic costumer service! Usually companies are eager to have you sign a contract and then it's hard to reach them, but not with this company, we called Daniel probably about 15 times with our questions and he was always available to explain everything. So once again Daniel, thank you for your patience, great services and all bonuses you included. We definitely will recommend you to our family and friends. You are truly amazing!!! read more

Solectric installed solar panels on our roof recently and they did a stellar job. Their work is detailed and professional. The technicians were always on time and cleaned up after finishing. Daniel (owner) is very easy to talk to and incredibly knowledgeable. Daniel was never pushy or sales-y, just matter of fact about their capabilities. I felt 100% confident selecting Solectric for this project and have zero regrets. Jessica (project manager) was also very responsive and went above and beyond to keep our project moving through the permitting process and interconnection agreement with our utility. I highly recommend them for solar or any other electrical work. read more

This company was very professional, knowledgeable and courteous to our requests. The job was completed in a timely manner and any questions/concerns we had after the installation was handled quickly, to our complete satisfaction! We highly recommend Solelectric! We felt the cost is the Solar was comparable to other companies. They were very reliable in handling our requests and responsive to any questions. read more

The Solectric team was great to work with. From the owner to the office staff to the installers. They were professional and responsive, and were extremely competitive price-wise, which is impressive given that they're installing Sunpower panels. They paid attention to the details on the install, going the extra mile to make it look clean and unobtrusive as possible. It is evident they take pride in their work. They were COVID cautious and it didn't slow them down. I cannot recommend this team enough. read more

The experience of working with Daniel and the Solectric business was extremely rewarding, I have made Solectric referrals to others several times. The timely responses and insightful information of product was very educational. My wife and I took 3 bids Solectric was the last to be interviewed, but when all said and done Solectric came in first hitting the 3 marks in business (Time, Cost, Quality) Daniel/Solectric hit all 3 Marks! read more

Solectric has just completed the installation and connection for my new solar system and I could not be more pleased with their services! I initially got quotes from another company (Illum) but my contact person would never get back to me to answer my questions and weeks would go by. My goal was to get my panels installed before the end of the year. Daniel with Solectric was awesome at answering my never ending questions and finding out details for financing questions as needed. I wanted the latest, most high-tech, best-you-can buy model of panels and Daniel hooked me up with the very best. My panels look great! The Solectric crew went above and beyond for me taking special care to fix a broken roof tile, cut my tree back from shading the panels, and installing a lovely owl on top the roof to scare away birds from leaving droppings. My PG&E bill has steadily climbed to almost double what it was for each month of the year the previous year, yet my energy consumption had not changed. Making the switch to solar could not come soon enough financially! I want to also mention Priscilla and how prompt she is at replying to my emails, she even replied after work hours and on weekends. I have been treated with exemplary courtesy by the entire team and know I am in good hands. This is not a pushy company when inquiring either, they give you the facts and have many great options for financing. I highly recommend Solectric to everyone and hope to see my neighbors take the same route I did soon. The paperwork was all completed via Esigning documents which was easy and safe during COVID. The team members always arrived with masks on and practiced social distancing. I can't say enough about how wonderful my experience has been! read more

Daniel, his installation crew, and his support staff did a great job. Daniel is no high-pressure sales guy, he listens to what you want and explains his pricing. His contract makes sense. I installed SunPower panels, which are expensive but high quality and have a 25-yr transferrable warranty on the panels and roofing. His installers have been working with him for years and know what they are doing. They are friendly, respectful, and courteous. The installation was professional and clean, only took two days with some follow up in coordination with the City of West Sac and PG&E. So thrilled to have an electric bill about 10% of what it was last summer - from $220 in July 2020 to $22 in July 2021! It will take time to pay off the system but the savings will only grow as electric costs continue to skyrocket. And, I am proud to be doing my part for the environment with Solectric's help. Couldn't be happier. read more

I have been looking around and speaking to solar companies for several months. Most of them come on way too strong and want you to sign the minute they give you the contract. I just was not convinced that solar was the best option for me since my bills were not all that high. I decided to do a search on Yelp and pull up the 10 top solar companies in the Sacramento area. I called several other companies first but because it was Saturday no one answered their phones. Solectric was in the second spot. When I spoke with Daniel he was very knowledgeable and made an appointment to come out and see me Monday. First of all I have to say, I like contractors that are on time. This is the main reason someone will never get my business, is if they are late. It shows that they don't respect my time. Daniel was right on time, score 5 points. He brought samples of the panels that he planned to use and also a sample of a lesser expensive type. The sample of the product was very helpful. He also brought a printed out proposal with what we talked about on the phone that was easy to read and understand what he was talking about. Shopping for a Solar system is like trying to choose between different cars and not knowing anything about them, not being able to see them, or drive them. You're putting out thousands of dollars you need to understand what it's all about. He explained everything in detail answered all of my questions and in every way was very thorough. I can see why all of his customers give him five Be sure and read all those comments as well. Daniel is at the top of his game!!! I can't wait to have my system installed. read more

I have been studying solar electric for several years now and after reading the latest Consumer Reports Magazine with Solar reviews I felt educated enough to deal with all the sales persons and their opinions that descend on you at the big box stores and telephone and door to door solicitation. Daniel of Solectric Inc. was totally different. First there was no hard push just a casual exchange of information all of which followed the CRM advise. When I decided to go with Solecric Inc. Daniel explained the options and showed me his products. He provided answers to all my and my wifes questions. As she was very unsure about the whole solar deal, he showed remarkable patience in explaining everything and in detail. We did not want any rental, lease or finance. He gave us several options on the KW and what payback time charts showed. We found his prices to be competitive, and the quality of materials to our liking. Upon agreement and signing the contract he followed through with the permits and design work. He and his crew came and began the installation and had everything completed within two days. His follow up has been great and I really have to say dealing with him has been a great experience. Quality workmanship and materials, good pricing, and timeliness are all his strong points. I give him five stars on all these points. read more

We were in need of an electrician to install an outside porch light. I had seen Daniel Navarrete's name in Nextdoor and contacted him. He was able to come over within a couple of days which I was very thankful for. I was very much impressed with him and his and will definitely use him again. He has a genuine regard for his "neighbors" and doing professional work that's affordable. read more

Many thanks to Daniel! We were shopping around for solar for some time and we knew we found the right company when Daniel entered our home. Not only did he provide us with excellent customer service Daniel went over and beyond our expectations. From his workmanship, materials, reasonable pricing, and overall outstanding performance Daniel took care of our home as if it was his own. He also noticed while he was in our attic that our air vents, kitchen exhaust, and dryer vent all needed a little TCL and he took care of it all at not charge! He gets an A+ in my books and I would HIGHLY recommend him and his company to any other homeowner. Our neighbors also went with Daniel and his company. After the job was complete Daneil checked to make sure everything was in proper working order and to our satisfaction. Thank you Daniel you truly are amazing! read more
