I had a complicated battery install, to move circuits to a new main panel and install a Franklin battery and A Gate. I work in the power systems industry and had lots of technical questions and inputs on the design. My installer, Manny Rios, was deeply technical and knowledgeable about the systems he installed. When he didn't know the answer he knew where to get the information and didn't try to hand waive past the topic. We are still dealing with a few minor issues but I'm grateful for the attention to detail and ability to address my detailed concerns. Thanks! read more

I would have give 4.5 stars but there was no way to put so I settled on 4 stars. I wanted to get the panels installed last year and they promised to install it in 2025. They were great and on time. We had issues with city inspection twice and that's why I had to remove 1 star. Overall, they are great. read more

The solar company that installed my system 10 years ago is no longer in business, so I needed to arrange for a new provider. Your Energy Solutions helped me easily make the transition and arranged for a warranty replacement of my inverter. Surena in the office was very helpful and responsive. The installation was done on time and completely satisfactory. Manny was pleasant and explained everything he did during the installation. He checked out the system and replaced the wiring between the solar panels and the inverter. I'm back up and running and am happy to now have a lower PG&E bill. read more

After researching many solar companies, I decided to move forward with Your Energy Solutions, and honestly, it was one of the best decisions I've made for my home. From the very beginning, the entire YES team made me feel like I was working with professionals who genuinely care about their customers -- not just trying to sell a system and disappear afterward. Their communication, transparency, and customer service were outstanding throughout the entire process. Victor was amazing to work with from start to finish. He was responsive, professional, and truly cared about making sure everything moved smoothly. I never felt ignored or pressured at any point. I especially want to thank Ramiro De La Torre (Operations Manager / Design Engineer). I asked a LOT of technical questions regarding Tesla Powerwall settings, solar production, PG&E rate plans, system behavior, maintenance, and long-term performance. Ramiro patiently answered every single question in detail and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. You can tell he genuinely knows his field and takes pride in his work. Thank you as well to Aaron De La Torre (Project Manager) and Nic Short (Senior Energy Consultant). Everyone I interacted with was knowledgeable, respectful, and incredibly organized. The coordination between departments was impressive, and the entire installation process felt smooth and well-managed. The installation crew also deserves recognition. They arrived on time, kept the work area clean, and paid attention to details. The finished installation looks clean and professional, and they made sure everything was functioning properly before leaving. What really separates YES from other companies is their support AFTER installation. Even after the project was completed, they continued helping me with Tesla app settings, system optimization, and questions about PG&E. That level of customer service is rare nowadays. If you are considering solar panels or Tesla Powerwalls, I strongly recommend Your Energy Solutions. This is a company that truly stands behind their work, treats customers with respect, and delivers a high-quality experience from beginning to end. read more

After looking at the reviews for many solar panel installers, the common complaints that I read were usually the lack of responsiveness and the broken promises so I was careful in selecting a contractor and chose YES for their high Yelp rating, but, I have to say they are no different than the others. I initially went with Tesla because they quoted the lowest price (by far) but Elon Musk completely swayed me away from them and went with YES despite a ~15% higher quote (though I had to use Tesla's batteries). I started the process 2nd week of January 2025. I will not mention any names here. The salesperson at the time was very responsive and answered all questions and negotiations (yes, negotiate all contract proposals!) professionally. He said that there weren't many projects on their pipeline so they could work on mine immediately and the entire estimated project from start to completion, including permits, should take approximately 6 weeks. OK, in my mind, I would give it 2 - 2.5 months just to give a more realistic cushion. The moment I signed the contract, everything changed. I was initially assigned a project manager who was just ignoring my messages and calls. The scheduled initial work had to be rescheduled 3 times. The first time, they just did not show up, no call, no message. I had to contact the project management multiple times because I took time off from work and no answer, no apology. Finally got a message back a week later saying we need to find another time. Second time, unfortunately was canceled again because the lead installer was sick, messaged the morning of, another day I had to take time off that was wasted, but I understand getting sick can't be scheduled. The third time yet another no show and I got really sick of it. I called the sales person who I talked to in the beginning and he assigned me a new project manager. So we finally got the work started 3rd week of February. Then more problems... The installer damaged my roof and rain water got into my ceiling. I called to complain and they sent someone to put a tarp on my roof. They said they need to find the tiles to match my roof and would get back to it. Every week I had to call or send them messages and they didn't fix the roof. Finally, after 6 weeks having blue tarp on my roof, someone came over to fix it! That's not all. The batteries did not work. Tesla app keeps saying it's calibrating up to 48 hrs. After 6 days of calibrating, I called YES and they did remote diagnosis and sent someone the following week to check. He looked at the installation and then grumbled to me that the installer did not install the batteries correctly. Then I had to wait another week to have another person come to fix the installation and then he had to be on call with Tesla agent for over 4 hours to have it diagnosed. This last technician was good, polite and patient. He was at my house for almost 6 hours to just fix the battery problem. And it's not done yet. The installation did NOT pass city inspection! The hookup to PG&E power meter was not up to code and another 3 weeks needed to get it fixed and another city inspection scheduled. Mind you, you cannot have the system turned on until you get the final inspection done. It was finally finished late May. Everything from contract signing to system being turned on took 4.5 months. At least, everything since was running well and my monthly electric bill went from ~$650 to just $80. For the final result, I give them 2 more stars. But based on their lack of responsiveness, I have doubts whether they would answer my calls if there were ever any problem down the line. read more

UPDATE: After further follow-up, Your Energy Solutions has taken full responsibility for the communication issues and is now making every effort to move my project forward as quickly as possible. While the experience has been frustrating, my previous positive history with them matters. Based on that overall track record -- and their recent efforts to correct the situation -- I'm giving them another chance and updating this review to 4 stars. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I've been a YES customer since 2020. They installed my original system that year and completed upgrades in 2022 and 2024. In all three projects, communication was responsive, installations were smooth, and the service was professional. Based on those experiences alone, I would have confidently given them 5 stars. Unfortunately, my recent experience has been different. In early October, after upgrading several appliances to electric, I reached out for a quote to add 4-5 additional panels -- a relatively small expansion. I didn't hear back for over a week and had to follow up. When I finally connected with a new sales representative, I was told they were extremely busy due to expiring tax credits and likely couldn't take on my project until early 2026. I responded asking to be placed on the calendar for 2026 but never received a reply. I followed up again in mid-February and was told I would hear back shortly. Several days passed without any update. My frustration has been less about the delay itself and more about the lack of communication and follow-through. As a long-time customer who has invested significantly in my system with YES, I expected clearer updates -- even if the answer was simply that they couldn't take on additional work right now. I would have wholeheartedly recommended YES based on my earlier experiences. I hope they are able to restore the level of responsiveness that originally earned my trust. read more

This took a long time to write. After doing a year long renovation, I feel strongly that good and bad contractor should be called out to help all of us. From the very beginning of talking to my sales representative, Nic Short(Your Energy Solutions), I told him I was only interested in installing the solar system if I could get the federal tax credit for 2024. I needed the tax credit to offset a 2024 capital gain. Mr Short continuously reassured me that this would be done. I was insistent, and said that I would only sign if an addendum was in the contract that installation would be competed in 2024. I have all the documentation to back this up. 4 weeks after signing the contract(mid November) nothing had yet been done to advance the project on site and I expressed my concern that the end of the year with holidays and rain season were fast approaching. Again I was reassured by both Nic Short as well as Jessica(my PM) that everything was on track and that installation would be done in 2024. I again expressed my concern that time was running low. Jessica reassured me that many people did not want installation on Dec 26 and 27 so that could be our fall back. I again called Nic Short and was reassured that everything was going to be delivered as promised and planned. There were other problems with the integrity of the process. At the very last minute they told me that a new electrical sub panel needed to be installed at additional cost. On December 18th, I received an email from Jessica that they were not able to install in 2024 but they had a way for me to get the tax credit by paying in advance for the entire system($56,545) and having the equipment delivered uninstalled.(23 panels, 3 batteries, and whatever else equipment that comes with the installation). I immediately called Nic Short and he agreed that this was not what we discussed. I sent an email to Mr Short the next morning @7:52AM telling him that YES had broken their promise and contract with me. I noted that the regulation says to get the tax credit, the system has to be installed. Jessica's email was misinformation. I asked Mr. Short to send me whatever is necessary to void this contract and refund my $1000. I wrote again asking the same request on Jan 2 and never heard from him. Then I wrote Jessica on Jan 6 asking the same request and never heard from her. I feel like the company deceived me into believing they could deliver and install the equipment that would give me the 2024 tax credit and broke the agreement that the installation happen in 2024. Also I had many emails and calls with Jessica expressing my anxiety that the project was not on track to be installed in 2024. She kept reassuring me that it would be. I reported the company to the CSLB(Contractors State Licensing Board). Seems to me as soon as I filed the complaint, the GM called me to figure out how I could get my $1000 reimbursed. The CSLB also issued "disciplinary actions for misrepresentation for the fact that they kept telling you the project was going to be completed before the end of the year" I lost $20,000 to federal taxes. Also my new company, Sunwise Solar Solutions installed a better system with 2 batteries instead of 3. I feel like I was upsold and lied to through at least the second half of this process. Good luck if you choose them. read more

have never heard from them since installation 2-3 years ago. Do they need to cleaned? Checked occasionally? Do they ever check in? Still with trueup paying approx $100 a month to PG&E for 1500 sq ft condo. read more

Manny did great job replacing my inverter. He did it faster than the expected time and answered all my questions in a friendly manner. I would be happy to have him work here again if needed. read more

(Update March 2026): After my initial project with Your Energy Solutions hit some roadblocks early this year, the company took proactive steps to make things right. Around mid-February, I was in contact with Carter Herrera. When the team reached out to address the timeline, they were refreshingly honest: they admitted that an influx of projects had stretched their capacity, but they were actively fixing the issue by hiring new staff to meet the demand. They asked what they could do to regain trust. I suggested a practical solution, expanding my PV system within the limits to avoid a complex new permitting process. Within a week of our discussion, they had already processed a contract for 3 new panels and Enphase microinverters. The transition from the scheduling phase to the actual installation was remarkably quick. Throughout the following weeks, Carter was highly responsive, coordinating the final details to ensure everything stayed on track. True to their word, they completed the installation just a few weeks later. Not only did they provide a very fair deal on the hardware and a quick design turnaround, but they also included a new energy guarantee for the expanded system. I am now happy to have a larger, more powerful system and am genuinely impressed by how they turned a potentially negative experience into a great result through accountability and professional execution. read more

Good value and quality. A bit slow on the request and response, but they got the things done eventually.

The Team at Your Energy Solutions are very friendly, efficient and quite knowledgeable regarding solar installation and answering / clarifying my follow up questions on the new system. The installation was fast and effortless, and again they remained engaged even after the work was done to be sure that I ,as the customer, was fully informed on the working of the system. Highly recommend using them! Charlie read more

I have been with Your Energy Solutions for years now and they have always come through when I needed them. Y.E.S. is fitting too! I have a complete solar panel/batteries system so basically get almost all of my electrical for free! There have been some glitches on the hardware and software but nothing that keep my little photons from doing their work. Now the reason for that is their super work force. All the employees I have dealt with have been professional and dedicated. I could not force one of them to leave and come back on a problem he was working on late one day to get him through our horrendous traffic out to the Valley. It was No I am here until I get this fixed. I always go to Y.E.S. not Enphase just because Y.E.S. staff has the customer orientation and technical expertise to drill down on the problem and they work very well with Enphase to coordinate what is needed. 5 Stars + read more

Kudos to the YES team - Carter, Surena and Manny for a great experience during replacement, installation and activation of my solar inverter going bad. My solar system is now working better than ever. read more

Great experience, my project was complex but they understood the goal and still provided a reasonable price. System is working well.

Our family looked around for solar company that is local and have been around for a while. YES is locally owned and the sales person Praveen has been with the company for over a decade. Another plus to going with YES is that Praveen also has solar and he lives locally. Praveen is very knowledgeable and super super honest which is rare in sales!! In late 2023, Praveen helped designed our solar plans according to our needs and usage! The system was so accurately designed that with our annual true up, we paid $60 in 2024 ( $5/month enabling savings of approx. $4,500 in 2024) After an all this time, we are still in contact with Praveen whenever we have questions or concerns. The biggest reasons we went with YES was that they have a good product, great team ( do not subcontract out) and their customer support is AMAZING!!! read more

Have been using YES since 2020 for all my solar and recently the did my roof and installed 2 more panels. Worked with Cameron and the project was done flawlessly and all was finished perfectly. Very happy with the result thank you! read more

Sales process was great! The quote and the work involved around it was awesome and the team did a great job. What is killing me right now is the fact that the service post-sale is awful. My Gateway has been down for nearly 3 months and I have tried, without any success, to get it back and connected. I have called more times than I can count. I have sent at minimal 15 emails. I even talked to someone today and provided the case number to them to replace my Gateway and they said they couldn't find it or figure out what is going on. While I love my sales process Paul was excellent to work with overall and provided a great solution for my needs. I feel blindsided by the lack of customer service to resolve such a simple issue. read more

Years after having solar panels installed-panels that actually produced more that YES projections thought they would and achieving a higher ROI than projected - we had YES install a new roof. The roof was competitively priced compared to other roofers with higher quality 50 year shingles. Angel and his crew worked the weekend to tack on new plywood since the old plywood was too thin and sagging in places so they could finish the roofing job before it rained. Quality of the roofing and finishing touches was top-notch! Would definitely recommend YES for both solar panels and roofing! read more

I had this company install solar on my townhouse roof about six months ago. The first two years I've done a lot of research into local solar companies and a neighbor one street over had this company install solar and they were very happy! To keep this brief short, I did have this company install solar panels and a Tesla battery and I'm very pleased from the start of the process to the end. The neighbors that recommended this company just came through and gave a check for $500 referral. The employees that I would like to mention were very professional on some questions and issues we ran into, but everything is good now very pleased. I do have an electric vehicle and it is nice using the energy from the sun to charge my car and run my household! so I'd like to mention some of the employees that were very professional and we're always there for my questions or issues and that would be Andy Yi, Angel, Aaron, David the electrician, Daniel and Carter! The crew that came out in one day to set everything up was the head guy Jonathan, and did not get the names of his crew. They were all very good! Very please! BTW dealing with my HOA was a joke! Regarding approval of the system. read more

We worked with YES on our roof replacement and solar installation at the end of 2025. We did a lot of research and spoke with over 10 solar vendors before choosing YES for our project. Their offer was very competitive. Angle was our project coordinator. He was very responsive, knowledgeable, and provided many valuable suggestions throughout the process. We were very happy with his support from start to finish. Our roof underlayment was nearing the end of its lifespan and needed to be replaced before installing the solar panels. YES has their own in-house roofing team, so there was no need to outsource the work to a 3rd party vendor. This greatly simplified warranty responsibility for the entire project. The whole project went very smoothly. The battery and wiring work took 1 day. The roof replacement took 4 days due to the size of our roof--special thanks to Adolfo's roofing team for being efficient and professional. The solar panel installation took 2 days. The entire team worked seamlessly and efficiently, and communication was clear throughout. Overall, we are very satisfied with YES's service and would happily recommend them to our friends. read more

Y.E.S. worked on our solar installation. The process was straight forward and have been responsive in communications and the installation. The entire team at Y.E.S. was super helpful, Thanks to Mia and Geno from sales, Skyler and Celeste and Varon throughout the operation and installation from the crew and Omar also made the inspection process smooth. Highly recommend! read more

They are very helpful and family friendly. All staffs are having kindness & so nice. I will recommend this family company to all of my friends & relatives. Merry X-MAS to all and Happy New Year! read more

YES was thorough, professional, and responsive when we needed them to be. The team provided multiple detailed quotes for us as we considered different size systems and technologies. The team talked to me about each setup with clarity and respect, which was different than other installers that made me feel dumb for even asking questions. Their installation was efficient and exactly as scheduled. When I had questions about the system post-install, they made time to answer them and help us understand how everything was operating. read more

My journey with YES starts with Franki, who walked me through the system design, pricing, warranty etc. very clearly and patiently. The pricing is reasonable, and the design is logical - a completely different experience from what I got from Sunrun's pushy salesmen. Later David Younes came to complete the installation and final inspection with the city. From the moment he came, he is professional, patient, and approachable. Not only did he finish all the solar/battery job, walked me through the app setup, he also painted the cable to match my exterior wall, completed the work my general contractor missed - ground the water heater and add one more grounding of the main electric panel. He is simply awesome! read more

I finally got a call back along with an apology. The rep explained everything and answered all my questions, and gave me a way to contact them directly. Except for not returning my call promptly, their service has been excellent in all respects. read more

This solar company is awesome! They are so knowledgeable and helpful. I went looking for some solar panels to work with my ecoflow delta pro to power my RV. I tested it out this weekend, doing some remote camping. The system worked great! No more loud annoying generator! read more

Thank you Franki Eivas and Angel Alonzo and thank you to the the crews who replaced my roof and reconfigured and installed my solar panels. I was nervous and a bit overwhelmed about replacing my roof because I have solar panels. Your Energy Solutions (YES) guided me every step of the way. The roofing materials are top notch and California Code compliant - my home has never looked better and my system has never produced more power. Franki had engineers review my site they came back with a new layout which produces more power than the original layout which was done by another solar company in Walnut Creek. I'm a confirmed YES customer and so glad I switched from the previous installers. YES uses Premium materials for Solar and for Roofing. I thought it would take weeks to do the roof, remove and reinstall the solar panels. To my amazement this was done in six days! The Crews worked well together, a well oiled machine, and the timing was flawlessly executed thanks to Angel. To top it off, the crews removed all the old roofing materials cleaned the yard of nail and other hardware at the end of the day. If you need a roof call YES If you need solar, call YES If you want competitive pricing call YES. read more

Professional installation. The field team that did the installation were very competent. The office support staff have issues with communicating in a timely manner. read more

I am updating my review after the owner, Geno Gitas, reached out and offered to make things right by fixing the issue that had been plaguing us for 8 months, and doing so quickly and free of charge. By that time, I had written YES off and had scheduled an appointment with another contractor, but decided to give them another shot and I am glad I did. YES came out 3 more times debugging the issue (fault errors with no visible cause), and ended up removing and rewiring all panels, and replacing our 10-year-old racking system as a precaution -- all free of charge! It turned out 3 of the panels were not working properly but they were able to bypass them and restore service with the rest. This was 5 star service but since I still have some PTSD from the prior experience, I'll leave this at 4 stars. I really appreciated the intervention from Geno, though, and the follow through -- YES has re-earned my trust to consider them for future projects. read more

I contacted several solar companies, SolarCity, Sunrun, Kingdon, and a few others, to compare quotes, and YES provided the best value by far. Jim, the owner, was fantastic: transparent, knowledgeable, and never pushy. Instead of a hard sell, he took the time to understand my energy needs and recommended the best system for my home. The process was smooth, and I couldn't be happier with the results. I love how I can view the entire system and each panel on my phone too. If you're considering solar in Pleasanton, Dublin, San Ramon, Danville, or Livermore, I highly recommend YES! read more

Prompt response the very first time, but later fell off in spite of me filling in the details at their website thru the link provided by them, on a timely basis. Took them two days to get back on it, with a emailed quote, rather than somebody calling and talking to me to understand my project !! And the quote seemed to be highly over rated, requiring much more than what I would need for my electric usage. this is not what you call "design" of a system, but someone just pulling out some random numbers and giving a quote Requested to talk with the person who gave me the quote, by responding on email. For two days, I dont see any response from them. Either they are too busy and dont have bandwidth to respond or this is how they operate.... read more

Top solar company. Installed and actually came back and took it down and out it back again when we got a new roof. Great company.

when i was searching for Solar installer to meet the year end deadline for Residential Clean Energy Credit , my friend recommended them. I am thanking my friend for his recommendation since the YES staff were super friendly and patiently answering my questions in particular Skyler my project manager and operations team Surena and Halle, Aaron for doing the initial site survey and final inspection coordination and Dario the final inspection field technician who waited patiently from morning to afternoon to get the San Jose Permit and Varon for permitting & NEM applications with PG&E. my solar system passed on the first inspection, i would like to sincerely thanks YES system and their operations team for their hard work , exceptional quality and completing the project in a short time to meet the tax credit deadline. I would definitely recommend them to my family and friends. read more

They were honest enough to tell me that in SF with an older home, the electrical updates and permitting process would take many months, missing the 30% Federal tax credit. Sux for me. read more

I have worked with YES on installing the solar panels and battery storage system. I initially compared them to a couple of other contractors. YES were the only one who agreed to work with my tar-and-gravel roof with decent warranty (while the rest were like "oh your roof is tar and gravel? So sorry, one year warranty is the best we can do"). YES quote was pretty comparable price-wise to the other folks too, and they were not backlogged because they used their own solar panels. I signed the contract in Septemeber 2025, they promised to install by the end of 2026, or 20% discount (some tax incentives were expiring in the end of 2025, so it made a difference). In the end I decided to renovate the roof before installing solar panels. YES has worked with the roofers with very little coordination needed from my side. The timeline slipped to 2026 -- I think mostly due to roofers, permitting and the weather in the end of the year, but YES still honored their 20% discount. I was really pleased with how fast they got things done once they started the install, and with how neat the exposed parts of the system looked like. All the installation was done by their own crews (at least judging by the baseball hats the managers were wearing :)). Really the only thing I would ding them points for was their initial sizing of the battery for storage. On average, my household uses ~30kwh per day, judging by the pge bill. In the initial quote (I suspect to be comparable with other installers) they proposed a battery of 15kwh nominal capacity. I was like "this does not add up, let's put two batteries". They replied "well you are charging the battery for part of the day and discharge for part of the day, so 15 will be enough". I insisted on 2 battery, 30 kwh storage and said I want more blackout resilience. While I still have not actually tested how long it will last in an actual blackout, I can see in the app that the state of charge on a sunny day in Feb / March varies from 20% in the morning (default franklin minimum beyond which the battery does not discharge unless in a blackout) to up to 75% in the early afternoon, which means that 15 kwh would have been topped out. But one way or the other, they were very willing to work with what I wanted as a customer. read more

This could easily have been a one star review with how long it took to get my issues sorted after install. The power import and export readings were all over the place and it took four separate visits and 6 months to get it right. They sent Manny over this week and he listened to what I said, understood me, took one look at the panel and figured out what the issue was. Turned out one of the sub panels were not plugged into the meters. Finally the power usage numbers make sense and I feel like I got a system I paid for. I explained the issue to so many different people and it was so frustrating to hear them say again and again that it's supposed to work that way and everything is fine. I realize this is a complicated design and I am happy with the system but support quality and responsiveness really should be looked at by YES. And hire more people like Manny who listen and understand issues before plugging or unplugging CTs here and there. read more

The quote price is below average. The sales are very nice and active. But after you sign the contract, and the project progresses in the middle, it is extremely hard to reach anyone in the company that actually knows something (like schedule, appointment, or procedures). The front line operators simply know nothing, but they are really good in blocking you from reaching someone knows something. If you want to schedule, or make an appointment, you must go through a 10-20 calls and emails. They made an appointment, but did not show up. I call the company many many time, the front line operators just know nothing, and block me from talk to someone who is in charge. Really disappointed! read more
