Outstanding experience with this team. They installed our complete solar system including panels, inverter, and battery storage. Communication was excellent and they always showed up exactly when they said they would. I highly recommend them!
— Jacob Tenney
Great team with a great attitude and SO helpful. This is my third solar system and Nick made it work for me, giving me all the options and then some. The job was finished on time and the system is working great!
— Lisa
Nick and Will did an exceptional job converting a dual 100amp service to a single 200 amp meter/main/distribution/panel. Work began at 8 AM, inspected and approved five hours later, and reconnected to PGE grid by three o'clock!
— Tonio Skweir
Our experience was great from start to finish. Nick was thorough and informative with the assessment and quote. When they came to do the job, they were efficient, kind, and easy to be around. Highly recommend them!
— Sean McCann
Nick installed my solar panels and batteries. Very knowledgeable, reliable, and professional. Highly recommend! It was great getting back to our Del Norte and Gasquet roots for this project.
— Martha Tanner
Outstanding contractor! From start to finish, Nick made the entire process seamless, stress-free, and even enjoyable. His exceptional communication and positive attitude set him apart. Highly recommend to anyone considering solar or battery installation.
— Jerry Long
I hired Nick to do an upgrade to my existing system and couldn't be happier with his work. He worked with me to build the perfect pole mount solar array. Professional, reliable, and dedicated to delivering high-quality results.
