BDS Solar

BDS Solar is a great company to get your solar through. They were quick and efficient! Ken was easy to work with and we are very happy!

The owner Ken Sampson was very knowledgeable, and upfront. His staff were professional and did a great job. Many Solar companies out there are scammers and will take advantage unfortunetly however BDS was transparent from the begining. They made it easy and a good experience. I would recomend to anyone. Thank you BDS!!

honest, reliable and very professional

Very Accomodating

BDS ook over our residential solar installation job from another solar company that was having issues during covid lockdowns. Ken was very transparent w pricing (his quote was similar to others, but he broke the line items down more specifically). and communicative every step of the way. His installers were organized, prompt, cleaned up nicely after each day of work, and addressed all notes and final punch list items without complaint or even a hint of side eye. The panels are up and running - I can see the meter feeding power back into the grid. All is good!

We are a General Contractor in the San Fernando Valley and we have used Ken and BDS Solar for several of our projects. They are prompt and professional handling all of the little details. If we have a problem after the job is complete they are readily available to resolve the problem. Would highly recommend them to anyone who asks us for a referral.

Been wanting to have solar panels installed in my house for months now and seeing how my utility bills can get high, especially during the summer when the air conditioning is on. I decided to call a few solar companies. BDS Solar by Ken Sampson had great things to say. Decided to work with him and I am very pleased. His employees were professional, clean and had a good work ethic. Can't wait to start paying less on my Water & Power.

Producing Lots of Power

We worked with Ken Sampson to get our project done, beginning in October 2015. The installation was completed very well and we were actually on the DWP grid by late December - we were anticipating a lengthy delay from the power company, but we were up and running in under 2 months! In the "dead of winter" our 40 panel system was producing over 20 kWhr per day. Now that the long days of summer are here, we see over 50 kWhr produced each day. We actually look forward to the meter reader's visits!

New Solar

I am thrilled with the recent solar installation from BDS solar. I had a preexisting solar system the was totally under powered. Ken was fantastic to work with and ensured my new system was fully capable. I have been up and running for three months and cant believe the energy I am producing. Very fair pricing and down to earth customer service.

good job

we like the job

Professional Quality, Service & Courtesy

By the time I arrived at looking at solar, I had talked to quite a number of building contractors. What I liked most about Ken, of BDS Solar, was his attention to my interests regarding size and type of system I was looking for. He was very tuned in to building a system suitable for my particular needs and future anticipated electrical requirements of our newly remodeled home. Ken didn't push to sell more than what was appropriate for our project. In fact he helped me actually scale down from oversized ideas I had in mind, while providing us with one capable of staying just the right amount above what we projected our power needs to be. They were also very good at working with my contractors roofers to install the mounting system, as the new roof was being installed. The array arrangement and installation was perfect and went quickly with no problems. I also appreciated the family business environment and the more personal attention it provided.

Highly Recommended

I am a General Contractor and have used Ken Sampson and BDS Solar for 3 residential projects in the San Fernando Valley. Ken and BDS Solar are very professional, great customer service, handled the permitting process and interface with the utility company which is always a time saver. I anticipate calling upon Ken and BDS Solar for any upcoming future projects. Great folks to work with.

Highly Recommended

From the initial contact, to the finished job, Ken Sampson showed the utmost professionalism. Everything was explained in detail, including all the options and incentives that were out there for us. We are so please with saving on our electric bills and would recommend BDS Solar to all our family and friends.

A Great Job

BDS Solar did a wonderful job and did the installation in one day. Very neat and clean. Ken Sampson was great to work with and also continued to follow up until we were up and running. Would highly recommend his company.

Best Value

I went with three different companies before selecting BDS Solar for my installation. Ken Sampson was my contact and helped us through the whole process. Mine was a land based installation, not a rooftop, and presented some challenges. BDS Solar provided the best solution, and beat the other quotes by a big margin. Installation went quickly. Now we are generating enough energy to eliminate my $500 a month electric bill. Very satisfied.

West Hills

Fantastic company to work with!!!

Beyond my expectations!!! They did both my house and my business. Ken Sampson was my contact person, he was very straight forward, punctual, returned all phone calls, and any small problems he addressed either the same day or the next day. Overall great service would recommend to anyone!!. I love my system which saves me a ton of money!

GREAT Pricing, Beautiful Seamless Installation, Professional

Ken Sampson was my point of contact and also an owner of the company I believe. Ken knows his stuff and put together a very affordable solar package for a challenging residential installation. I didn't want panels on the roof because I think they look like crap. We live in a very upscale neighborhood, so I was concerned with the esthetics. His engineers designed a ground mount system that looks to me like a modern piece of art! Installation team was very professional, and Ken's pricing beat the other bids I got by around $10 Grand! Ken will show you the power generated and the various ways to pay (lease vs. finance vs. purchase). For our system we paid in full, and the payback on the system will be very quick. Ken was in touch via text and phone every step of the way. I highly recommend BDS.

Saving money was never this easy

Edison owes me more than $300 so far this year. My system produced more electricity than we used every month except in January this year. Best investment we ever made.

solar system

We are happy with the solar system installed. I would recommend to friends and family.

Solar Install

I decided to install solar. I had six different companies come out. I received the best price from BDS. The sales representative was very personable. I made a change to the panel set up without a set back to the install, minor price change. The install went well. To this day, they are still checking in to see if everything is OK.

Solar Installation

I had my solar system quoted by three different companies. I choose BDS Solar (Ken Sampson). They were competitive, competent and prompt. The installation was professional and was completed in two days. The third day the Los Angeles City building inspector arrived and the system passed inspection with no problems. My only issue is with the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power - they are still in their 4 month long approval and start up process. The DWP's program should be privatized. Best Regards, George Ebert

Three years later, they are still checking in...

While designing the system it was taken into consideration that I only wanted the panels on the back of the house. The installation was fast & clean. The crew went to great lengths to make sure no debris was left in the yard. To this day, the owner of BDS still checks in to make sure everything is satisfactory and is always available to assist when there are questions or concerns. All around a knowledgable, professional and good team to work with.

SOLAR SYSTEM FOR ELECTRIC

I am very satisfied with the solar installation.

solar

saving a lot of money on electricity plus the value of the house and dealt with this co who was very patient and reasonable to push through all the issues i would recommed this co to others .

They did a great job on time and on budget on a hard job

I had two big solar companies tell me that they could not install because of my very heavy tree cover. Ken at BDS took the extra time to make the project work by cutting the trees, positioning the panels and even guaranteeing me in writing that I would get a specific level of power a year. To date I am on track to meet that number. Ken was very ethical and made sure that his crews followed our agreement to the letter and intent of our contract. Ken was available, polite and businesslike even when someone else might have lost their cool or chose to duck communication. The true test of a dependable contractor is when they communicate with you and follow up when the job is hard- and my job was much more difficult than the average job. I got all of the tax and rebate incentives I was promised by Ken. I strongly suggest calling him if you want someone who will really take care of business. Mike Fuss 818-809-9571
