Great Team

I selected Got Watts to install my solar PV system as the best of proposals I received. Their whole design and construction team was technically competent which is especially important with electrical work. The installation was completed sooner than the proposed schedule. On the panel install team, Justin was especially concerned with providing a proper physical installation. Marc on the final inspection and startup team was very careful and thorough in getting compliance with the city inspector and also in setting up and explaining the monitoring app so I could easily check and see how well the system was functioning.

A local professional provider. No big business B.S.

We have the solar and battery backup system since August 2020 and We’re still testing it and tracking data. We need few more months to get a good picture of the return on the battery backup system within the entire investment, besides an emergency use. I can say that the battery CA rebate program for the battery is very complex and a bad point of incentive for battery purchase, because the process is complex and the prospect of getting the rebate is disappointing. On the good side, the Generac system we installed is very neat in looks and the specs beat Tesla’s in few points, especially scalability. GotWatts staff were excellent, no exception, and they exceeded expectation. We had unique situations, with our thinner roof tiles that cracked easily, and some panels had minor defects in the frame due to manufacturer packaging. GotWatts offered us multiple reasonable resolutions, with professionalism, and all was resolved to our complete satisfaction. The project lagged due to the dis-ease in the social and business life in the last year, and we are grateful to the team to work with us at every opportunity. I would recommend anyone local to the Bay Area to have his system installed by GotWatts. The great team who worked with us are: Jeremy and his team James, Alex, Brian, Cody, Sam and Lindsay.

Awesome Team and Happy Customer

My job was not an easy one and they took the time to put together a program with a lot of attention to detail. I used them for both an electrical upgrade as well as a full solar array. The job turned out great. I love that they are electricians first so they really k is what they are doing. Highly recommend the Got Watts team!

Great Service

Got Watts was terrific from the first phone call. Extremely professional and fun. We had a total of five bids of which three companies were using the exact equipment and Got Watts gave us the most for our dollars.<br /><br />The installation was a wonderful job with no panels visible from the street and a thorough cleanup.

Did a great job

We found the advice of Jeremy to be great, he certainly was not trying to upsell things we did not need and found him to be very truthful and knowledgeable about hiss product lines. The solar panel install was done in 3 hours, the inverter wiring took a few hours more only. They also did a bunch of electrical repairs including replacing our 70 year old sub panel and many circuits throughout the house. All the work was done well, I would have no issue recommending this company to anyone.

Honest and Professional

I selected Got Watts Electric & Solar to install a residential solar system on my house in Antioch. My experience with Got Watts was professional and informative from start to finish. Most communication was by email which I like more than phone calls because it provides a information to reference. The price was not the lowest but it was near the lower end. But the panels and equipment were superior to the lower quoted systems. When I needed a sub panel put in, Got Watts included it in the price. It was not so with other quotes. The sub-panel they put in has expansion capabilities and wouldn't if they had gone with the minimum needed. The solar panels they offer include top of the line. The system includes monitoring the performance of the individual panels, not just the system. They took care of all the permits, setup, inspections and submitting paperwork to PG&E. They replaced some cracked roof tiles that had been bonded together with good ones removed from where the solar rack was installed to hold the panels. I highly recommend Got Watts.

Solar Installation

We were so delighted with Got Watts Solar Installation that we decided to have an Open House at our Countrywood HOA. Besides the beautiful job on our Solar Array, the installation of the EV charger, Inverter, Monitor was done inside the garage was aesthetically pleasing. The Got Watts Team was professional and meticulous in the execution of every work detail. Material was top quality and state of the art. Their design recommendations saved us significantly on cost and time. Thanks to Got Watts for a terrific job all around.

Excellent

After getting proposals from two other solar companies I discovered that Got Watts has extremely high user reviews so I contacted them. They are not "hard sellers" like the solar only companies. We talked through details (different manufacturers and their warranties) and contingencies (what if my electric needs increase?), they provided a very competitive estimate, and last week the solar panels were installed. So far everything is great and I feel like I can call them any time if I need to and they will be responsive and helpful.

Excellent solar and electrical installation

Got Watts installed a solar PV roof system and we are very happy with it. This is the second time that we have used Got Watts and both times, we could not have asked for a better experience. Jeremy's quote was lower than his competitors. He answered all my questions and was very flexible when asked to make changes in the design. System installation started less than 2 weeks after contract signing; Solar City quoted a 3-5 month wait. The install crew was very professional and completed the entire installation of 22 panels in 2 days. Shelby and Lindsay handled the PG&E and Concord City papwork and were very responsive to questions. We highly recommend Got Watts for general electrical and solar work.

Why Settle when you can have the best.

When we decided to have electrical work and solar done, we had request several contractors to come out and give us advice and quotes. Most where quick to give us a quote without explaining the process and quick to give us a quote. With "Got Watts Electric" we where blown away. They where on time, professional and their attention to detail, answering questions, and explaining the work, the options, was above and beyond. We had our main panel redone, went form a 100amp to 200amp panel, we also had our sub panel done. We decided to also do Solar based on their knowledge and attention to detail. We have had the Solar for almost a year now and it has been amazing. NOW, when I look at other peoples solar work and see electrical conduit running across the roof with large electrical boxes, I was even more impressed with the work Got Watts did. My Solar panels are in three different spots to follow the sun and give me all day exposure. I have no electrical conduit/boxes running across my roof, everything is going thru the attic. If I could give them more starts I would. never rushed to making a decision, absolutely the best!!

Review for Got Watts- Solar photovoltaic install

Finally getting around to this. Yep, we very much enjoyed the process from start to finish, and ongoing since then. Slightly better overall price than major local competitor (larger system recommended/installed, but better price per panel/watt). Little communication hiccups due to various unexpected things, but always explained/open about. Jeremy (owner), Darrin (behind the scenes proposal developer/communicator), and on-site crew (especially roofer/installer guy, I forget his name), were all great/communicative/friendly. All have been prompt/helpful including after the install said and done (now 3-4 months later). Office crew were also very friendly and helpful.
