    Sun Power solar panels A400.
    Natalie B.

    I cannot say enough amazing things about Urban Energy! From start to finish our solar installation was easy and seamless. We worked with Mark who helped us select the Sun Power A400 series solar panels, a superior product to other panels on the market and also carrying the best solar warranty in the industry with a 25 year warranty. Urban Energy handled everything with our city permit, from drafting and submitting plans and meeting with the city inspector for our final approval. It took the crew just 2.5 days to install our 26 panel system. The installation was super smooth and the installation crew was extremely professional and tidy. I could not believe how quick and fast the entire process was. Everyone we worked with at Urban Energy was knowledgeable, helpful, and courteous. From start to finish we always felt like we were in good hands and knew we made the right decision selecting Urban Energy above other solar companies. We are so thrilled to go green with our solar panels and feel confident with Sun Powers solar panels longevity and reliability. And of course we love the sleek and clean look of our panels as well! I included a few photos, excuse the cobwebs as we are decorated for Halloween.

    Absolutely freaking fantastic company to work with for all your residential solar needs! Was going to get my solar system installed by Tesla Energy formerly known as Solar City but a brief chat with Keith, one of Urban Energy's sales representatives convinced me to go with a superior and more aesthetically pleasing product from SunPower. Look it up SunPower is in a different league when it comes to efficiency and degradation. Trust me it is a far superior product than anything that is being offered by the other guys. In addition Keith kept pricing very competitive versus their competitors. I am glad that I made this decision. Their installation crew headed by Tim was top notch. Never did I hear the guys swear and we're absolutely professionally every single minute they were at my home. With little kids around the house this is important for me. They installation was super tidy and clean, the city inspector even commented on how professional the installation looked. Fast forward a few days past my installation, I had a few questions and it was Sunday. I decided to call and most probably leave a voicemail, but do you know what happened??? Mark, the owner picked up on a Sunday morning and answered all my questions! Geez, how awesome. Easy peasy decision to make if your are looking to get your system installed! Go with Urban Energy!

    I began looking into solar in the beginning of August 2016 after my wife an I bought an EV. I started with some of the big named companies that advertise on the radio, went through Yelp, and even asked for some recommendations from friends. I received estimates from four companies and talked to many others over the phone. I researched everything I could find and in the end, every solar company that I dealt with left me some unanswered questions. Whether it was about experience, product, warranty, output, installation timeline....you name it, I was never confident enough to sign on for solar, probably because it was such a big and permanent investment. Then I spoke to Keith W. with Urban Energy. By far, Keith was the most knowledgeable of any of the sales representatives that I had spoken to. Over a period of a couple of weeks, Keith spent about 4 hours with me on the phone, exchanged multiple emails, and presented several different options. Always responsive to my requests, Keith would send me photographs, spec sheets, pricing, layout options, and much more. He contacted my local energy provider and determined the maximum system size allowed (including the future needs of my recently purchased EV). Satisfied, I signed with Urban Energy Solar sometime in mid September 2016. I purchased and did not lease. I went with: 26 LG Neon 2, 315 Watt panels 1 Solaredge Inverter 26 Solaredge Power Optimizers Estimated output about 12,200 kWh annually. Urban Energy handled all of the permits and plan submission with the city and my local power company and submitted paperwork on my behalf for a direct rebate from the power company. The office kept me informed throughout the process and within about five weeks they were out at my house to install the system. It took about 2 1/2 days to get the system completely installed on the roof, the side of my house, and in my garage (inverter). The installation went smooth and the guys (Raul especially) were polite and professional. I was impressed with the fit and finish of their work. All stucco, drywall, and electrical was repaired and painted to match the original finish and they cleaned up (daily) any debris that was caused during the installation phase. After the city, fire department, and power company signed off on the system, I began generating solar power in the first week of November. Since the system was activated, I have spoken to Mark M (owner) on several occasions to resolve an issue with internet/app monitoring of my solar system via the Solaredge website. Mark was very responsive to my questions and worked with me until the issue was resolved. Everyone at the company was a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend talking to Urban Energy about your solar needs.

    Went with Urban Energy to support a local business and have support close by if I ever needed it. We are owning a Cliff May house, so installing a PV system as invisible and non invasive as possible was key. Pricing was good and I'm glad I didn't go with one of the "big player" of the business. You are in good hands at Urban Energy. It was a great experience all around with Mark being very helpful and responsive along the way.

    Urban Energy Solar is Amazing!!  Great work quality! Excellent customer service and follow-up.  Loving our new Solar System for the pool.

Their quote, plus their high reviews made them the logical choice, and we have no regrets. From the person who did the site inspection, Jose, to the installers, everyone seemed very friendly, respectful of our property/wishes, and it was clear they were experienced and knew what they were doing. Being up against a deadline, we really couldn't afford to fail the city inspection, and we passed easily. Thanks to the salesman Mark Howe for his direction, & to Henry Melling for a great design and implementation. We were not excited at the idea of having all that stuff on the side of our house, but honestly, the installation was so neatly done, with a few plants added over there, I'm sure we can acclimate. The battery placement in the garage was genius -- up and out of our way! Everything is functioning as it should, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend California Solar & Electric. THANKS to them for a job well done, and ON TIME!! We couldn't be happier.

We had new construction and solar was required. I contacted Infinity Solar and they walked us through each step of the process, and they were very patient and understanding through our numerous construction delays. I was connected with Nick who was great! Most solar companies only wanted to consult over the phone but Nick was more than happy to come meet with us. He looked at our construction and walked us through the next steps, explained who would handle what portion of the installation. Nick coming out and answering our questions made us feel more comfortable about the process. Sara was also great! She checked in on us periodically to see where we were in the construction process. She understood our delays and never made us feel pressured or rushed. They handled the permit process, kept us apprised of when it was approved and when our equipment was received. Infinity does their own installation which was a huge plus. I heard many stories of solar companies contracting out and not having the work pass inspection and the nightmare to get it corrected through the solar company because they did not do the install. Ivan and his crew came out to install. Ivan was patient, explained what they were going to do and what options we had for placement of the equipment. He was very knowledgeable and professional along with his team. They completed the install in a day. If you are looking for solar and want the process to be stress free and feel confident the work will be done right, I highly recommend Infinity Solar!

    Absolutely First-Rate from Start to Finish When the fires…read morehit Southern California and we lost power for two weeks, something changed for me. I remember standing outside one night listening to my neighbor's generator roar to life again. It sounded like a chainsaw tearing through the quiet. Across the street, friends with solar and batteries had their lights on. Their kids were inside watching TV. Life looked normal. Meanwhile, I was packing up my family to leave our home. Rising electricity rates, AI data centers consuming massive amounts of power, and talk of double digit rate increases made going solar the right thing to do. I researched heavily. Built a spreadsheet. Interviewed over a dozen companies. Got bids through Energy Sage, cold called installers, and asked around for referrals. I wasn't looking for a sales pitch. I was looking for people I could trust with my home and my family's security. Infinity Solar felt different from the start. I didn't have to deal with brokers or middlemen to jack up prices. They are family owned, in business over 25 years, BBB A+ rated, and 5 stars on Yelp. Tim, the owner is a C10 licensed contractor, sets the tone for the entire company. His pride and commitment to doing things right shows up in every person on his team. Sara, our project manager, kept everything organized with clear, proactive communication. Blake handled the maze of permitting. If you've dealt with solar permitting in California you know what a mess it is. State, county, city, and fire department all with their own rules. Blake stayed on top of all of it so I didn't have to. Joel made sure the job site ran smoothly. The crew deserves real recognition: electricians Adrian, Ivan, Salvador, and Christian; roof lead Arni; installers Jose, Gabriel, Kieren, Israel, Erik, and Robert; and Deyvis helping with inspection. They showed up on time, worked hard, kept everything clean, and answered my endless questions without ever making me feel like I was in the way. Construction always has bumps. Permits get revised, inspectors want changes. What mattered was how Infinity handled it. Calmly, professionally, and without disappearing. Tim must be a good boss and take care of his people because this is a crew of highly skilled workers who take real pride in what they do. The day the system went live felt like a turning point. Our first outage was December 23rd while setting up for a Christmas party. Power was out over eight hours. The lights never flickered. I only knew because the app alerted me. Tim included a Solar Insure 30 year warranty covering panels, microinverters, wiring, and roof penetrations, including labor. It's backed by an A+ Superior rated third party insurer and is transferable if I sell my home. An installer's warranty is useless if they go out of business, so this gives real peace of mind. Because I verify everything, I called Solar Insure, Enphase, FranklinWH, and REC directly to confirm Infinity is a Premium or Platinum installer with each. They are. I'll break even in 8 years at current rates, sooner when rates keep climbing, and you know they will. But more than savings, it's peace of mind. When the grid goes down, our house doesn't. Infinity Solar gave our family back a sense of stability. I'm grateful we chose them.

    Update for my review with OC - Savannah from customer service reached out regarding my experience…read moreand expressed regret over how things went and changes were actively happening at the company. She offered a free panel cleaning, which she set up internally and had their team come out this past Friday without issue. Since the cleaning the panels have been much better performing especially after these past few weeks of misting and rain, about 25% higher output. I didn't think much of it but I get now it's worth doing to get the most out of the panels. Overall a very good response and experience with OC specifically for this issue. I feel that they do want to stand out from the crowd and responding proactively to feedback gives me more confidence they'll take care of issues as they hear about them.

    This company is the worst. They do not know how to install a roof or fix the roof they installed…read more We had our entire roof (pitched and flat) replaced by them in 2018. We have had the flat part of the ceiling leak EVERY YEAR since they fixed it. We call, they schedule us, someone comes weeks later and they say they "fixed" it but then next time it rains it leaks again. They blamed our vents so we were stupid enough to pay these people to remove the vents because we didn't want to void the warranty by having someone else do it and guess what? Now the roof leaks in DIFFERENT parts. Worse part is that now we're starting to see STAINS on the ceiling from WATER DAMAGE. The last guy said it doesn't affect the integrity of the roof but he found wet spots THROUGHOUT the ceiling 2 weeks AFTER the rain. I have a toddler in here and they want to claim that a ceiling that is still wet after 2 weeks of no rain is safe??? I just HOPE that there is no mold, mildew, it wood rot in between these layers of wet wood! My husband has been calling and they are giving him the run around about scheduling someone to come. I tried calling and when they did call back they called to say they had no updates on when someone could assess the roof further. I have written a review in the past about our issues with the install and the first leaks, it's lost in all the other complaints they have about leaking roofs. If you still are on the fence about using this company you can read all of those and save yourself the trouble we didn't. Avoid them!

Our first conversation with NetZero was with Donny, and while it was helpful, we decided to pause and keep learning. After doing more homework and later reconnecting with Nilda and Bobby, the experience felt very different. They took the time to answer questions in plain language, walked through realistic expectations, and never tried to rush us into a decision. After we decided to move forward, the process was handled professionally from start to finish. Nick helped dial in the system design and made sure everything made sense for our home, and Mark oversaw the install side and kept things moving smoothly. The crew showed up when they said they would, treated our home with care, and cleaned up at the end of each day, which we really appreciated. Permitting and inspections were handled by the team and communicated the steps along the way. There were no surprises. Kelly was especially helpful keeping us in the loop and responding quickly whenever we had questions, which made the whole process feel far less stressful than we expected going in. Overall, NetZero Energy felt like a company that values doing things the right way and standing behind their work.

Five stars all the way.
