Just Outstanding

We're up! Thanks to the entire California Solar Electric team. Start with Roger: clear presentation of the proposal, responsive to our questions and phone calls, and just a nice guy. The roof installers: Aaron and Gavin, and the electricians: Alex and Jake gave us a excellent neat appearing and serviceable system. Cody and Josh also did their important tasks. My wife and I feel like we have friends along with our new solar system. Thanks to you all and hope I didn't miss anyone because you all were great.

Superb Install from California Solar Electric

Due to the field of work I do, I am a perfectionist for detailed work from those that I hire. The guys from California Solar Electric did a fabulous job on my 4kw Sunpower system. Installers were Aaron and Gavin. Electricians were Cody and Jack. All conduit was run beautifully and the all black Sunpower panels look great. All work was done in one day! <br /><br />My sales guy Stephen definitely was knowledgeable about his recommendation and placement. Al in all, this was a really good experience with zero issues at all.

Quick, professional, and friendly installation

Josh, Cody, Mike, and all the folks at California Solar Electric are very friendly and professional. I'm still surprised that it was less than a week from start to permission to operate.

CSE Review

We just completed installation of our solar energy system by California Solar Electric. We selected them based on their excellent reviews and referrals. We were not disappointed. They did a great job. The attention to detail, professionalism and willingness to meet our HOA requirements was amazing. Our thanks to our installation team of Aaron, Mike, Jake, Gavin and Cody. Our Sales Representative, Ish took the time to assess our energy needs and answer all our questions. Great Company to work with.

CLEM Ventura Solar Install

California Solar Electric is an excellent choice for solar install. Tom from California Solar Electric provided honest and direct answers/recommendations during the quote process. He even provided guidance to assist with Roof repair unrelated to the solar install. The process was very easy. The install team were excellent. They explained every detail for install prior to starting setting expectations for completion. I highly recommend California Solar Electric for residential Solar Install

Are you ready for this Jelly?

From the initial sales pitch to the financing and installation the folks at CSE have been nothing but polite and professional. "Ish" the sales rep seems to have a legitimate passion for solar. Alex, Jake and Aaron did an excellent installation (on the day of the eclipse lol). I wish I could find a contractor to do other work on my house that is as attentive, prompt and professional as these guys. The crew definitely deserves a bonus lunch after working all day on my black roof in the Oak View sun. When I say lunch I don't mean some crappy Jim and Robs Burrito either, these guys earned an OBC lunch at the very least. I wasn't initially sold on the project, but I'm glad my wife insisted.

What a great company

Everybody at this company was so friendly, responsive, and professional. During the long permitting process I called Office and said I was confused about what was going on; right away that was a noticeable increase in their communication with me as a response to my concern. The installation itself went very smoothly in the office called me every day to tell me who would be coming out which I found very reassuring

Peaker Plant Killer!

Just can't imagine how this would have gone smoother! In our area, Santa Barbara's Community Environmental Council (CEC) vetted the area's best solar installers, and we went with California Solar Electric, one of their two choices. From design to power-up, everything was easy-peasy; the process to install 10 panels took less than a day. We're now going head-to-head with NRG!

Power from the Sun...

By far the best honest straight forward bid. The timing was exactly on schedule, the installation was fast clean and efficient. They were testing the new system within three days of showing up. We added 12 panel system to our existing system.
