Highlight solar wins 5 stars on every aspect of the installation process and for the right reasons.<br />Dean, the sales guy and owner was super professional all the way, taking care to explain in great patience all the details in numerous emails and several phone calls. <br />The price of the installed system was very competitive compared to 2 other quotes I got (and I have done meticulous homework). I also bundled an upgrade of the service panel from a 45 year old Zinsco to a brand new 200Amp panel. Despite the fact that this required a day and a half of work, with new grounding rods and cables running from one side of the house all the way to the other side in and out of the crawlspace - there was no single complaint, no attempt to surcharge or anything – just super professional attitude all the way !<br />Dean also provided anodized mounting for the solar panels at no additional charge, and helped with the configuration of the Enphase monitoring system.<br />Schedule-wise, I was in a rush to complete the installation due to some personal constraints, and guess what ? the entire project completed in just two and half weeks !! (except the PG&E net meter switch which is still pending...). Other quotes I got listed 14 weeks of lead time.<br />The only small disadvantage compared to another quote I got was the financing which wasn't as lucrative as one I got from a bigger installer, but given the overall price of the system - it is hard to compare.<br />I recommend highlight solar to anybody who plans on a buy vs. lease. It's a small shop with a super dedicated and professional team who are trustworthy, competitive, dependable and efficient !
