Ryan, Gabe, and Travis along with all of the West Coast Solar Team were all very supportive and knowledgeable throughout the whole process of having our Solar install led for our home. I chose to work with West Coast Solar and their Team because of my in-laws used West Coast Solar and they treated them with up most respect and support. Ryan and his Team made the process easy and hassle free for my wife and I. They handled everything Start to Finish. Scheduled all of the Appointments and Permits. Day of installation was perfect no problems clean installation and we'll designed system. My wife and I will recommend West Coast Solar to anyone that is interested or looking to get Solar.

West Coast Solar helped us quite a bit. They were the installers of our solar but we ended up inheriting a service contract with Spruce (Real Estate Agents didn’t do any paperwork for Spruce, only West Coast Solar) when we purchased the property in 2020.. West coast Solar was set to come to our home in November of 2025 to replace a broken inverter, they found that we had a service Contract with Sprucepower. They went out of their way to help me to get Sprucepower to not move so slowly to go through their processes. The inverter is now at my property as West Coast Solar had my part and arranged to have me come and get it! I will be buying out the remainder of my service contract with Spruce and have West Coast Solar service it if needed. I highly recommend West Coast Solar!

Cliff with West Coast Solar is AWESOME!! Polite, courteous, friendly and approachable! He explained the processes very well, checked in with me before, during and after he had finished. What an asset to the company! Give him a raise! 👏🤩 Turns out we needed a new inverter and Josh, the service tech was also AWESOME! Communicated every step of the way, arrived promptly on time, checked with me mid-process and upon completion. Efficient, courteous and expert service! 👏😃

Wonderful Experience!

My experience with West Coast Solar couldn’t have been better! Everyone I talked with was polite, courteous and helpful and the technicians who installed the system worked diligently, quietly and efficiently. I am thrilled to be able to use solar power for all of my energy needs now. I would most certainly recommend West Coast Solar to anyone in search of a solar company.

Definitely five stars!

From the moment we got the quote from Ryan, until the system was installed, West Coast Solar was wonderful. We could not be happier with their service, the quality of our system, and the on-going follow-up and check-ins. Highly recommend this solar company!

The Best Solar Company

Sales was straight forward and honest. No pressure sales pitch. Installation was fast and easy; very professional. Questions were answered quickly. Full turnkey experience from sales to cut over. Pricing was very reasonable and competitive.

Great!!

I have only recieved 1 bill so far, since the installation, but it was about $100 less than before, but it was only online for 2 weeks. This is not the time of year to get lots of sun, so its at its minimum. Just for kicks I look at the meter everyday for last 2-3 weeks and am amazed to watch the reading go down everyday when theres little sun.

Great Local Company

Elvin and the whole West Costa Solar team were very involved with us from beginning to current. They make the whole process of purchasing and installing and even training you on how to use solar and how to read your energy statement. Elvin even checks in with you many times after installation.

EXCELLENT COMPANY

West Coast Solar is absolutely a top notch company! From the sales rep Darren to the home site tech to the installers, we could not of asked for a better company to install solar for us. WCS has an excellent work ethic and wonderful customer service which is so rare these days. Everyone we dealt with was very professional, genuinely polite and actually were happy to be working with such a good company! It took very little time between our initial meeting with Darren until install day. No other solar company we spoke with could even come close to WCS. This is a very well run company with employees that actually know their jobs and have excellent work ethics. Install day was could not of been smoother. The installers worked so well together, were efficient and safety on install day was also a priority not only for the crew, but also for the homeowners, passerbyers to even the family pets. We are very happy costumers! We could not of asked for a better experience!

WCS put 5 more years of money in your pocket

Lets face it, there are more solar companies than car dealers. But product and service are important. I interviewed over 20 Solar companies to get the best deal. West Coast Solar had the best price and the best warranty for a straight up purchase with lifetime monitoring and a 25 year warranty vs almost every other competitor offering ony a 20 year warranty. Their estimate was spot on including my tax rebate. Installation was great and pretty much on schedule. Proactive support has corrected a couple of issues without any action from me.

We're honored to have made the cut, Michael! Thank you for the high praise and please continue to enjoy your solar panels for years to come!

35 panel Rooftop Solar Installation

It has been a year since rooftop solar system was installed. I have no leaks in roof which was a concern. yeah! but time will tell right. My first true up bill is coming and it was less than $100 so great job on design and estimation of my energy use. Salesman Brad was very helpful and made sure I was informed of the process. The two Installers were Amazing!!! They installed 35 solar panels on my roof and inverter on side of house and was all working in one day and they even took lunch. I am an older electrician and was very impressed with their work, fast, clean, neat, efficient, courteous. They have done this before. LOL. I would hire them absolutely. I hope these panels last as advertised and my roof has no problems, so far so good. Everything from financing to install was delivered as promised. Thanks West coast Solar!!

Everything as Promised

Our salesperson, Mark McBride was awesome. He explained the entire process, financing options and even suggestions on how to get best results. The installers showed up as scheduled, explained the installation and even repaired/replaced some broken roof tiles (they are sister of a roofing company). Once installed, we were shown how to view the system performance both at the box located in our garage as well as using the smart phone and computer applications. The whole process went smoothly with good communications from their office.

Response from West Coast Solar

Thanks so much for the review! We're glad that Mark and his team were able to get you taken care of and that everything went off without a hitch. Please let us know if there is anything you need going forward!

WOW!

We had our panels installed in Nov. 2017 It was the best decision we made. Our salesman, Ryan Ogen was amazing! In no way was he your typical "Salesman". He was easy to work with, answered all of our questions and did not pressure us with constant emails or phone calls. We purchased our panels from West Coast Solar through Mosaic. The financing was so easy and simple. West Coast installed our panels in 1 day. My last 2 months of PG&E electricity bills totaled $20.05, and it's winter time, so I can't wait to see how we fair during the summer months! West Coast Solar does all the necessary paper work for PGE, Permits, etc. I can't say enough about them. I highly recommend them!

My Experience with West Coast Solar

The installation by West Coast Solar was fast and professional. The installers were very concerned and aware of my property and took extra care to be protective of it. The were willing to help me move items in my garage that needed to be moved and they cleaned up afterwards. They were very friendly and a pleasure to have them at my home. The installer, Ben, was very knowledgeable , friendly, and took time to explain the process and answered all my questions. The salesman, Troy, was very professional and answered all my questions and was instrumental in my decision to move ahead with the solar installation. All the other West Coast employees were also very friendly and professional.

Excellent Experience, highly recommend

My wife and I wanted to work with one turn-key contractor, not deal with the headache of subs. We had a re-roof installation, PV Solar, and Pool Solar installation. Having close friends in the industry, they recommended West Coast Solar to meet our needs. Mike Kleeman came out, and in a very professional, no pressure educational manner, discussed what they could do for us as a sole source, design-build contractor to meet our every need. Their price was extremely competitive, their referrals were truly satisfied customers, and we couldn't be happier. Clean installation, on-time, in budget, no surprises and great customer service with excellent documentation along the entire process. Mike was very responsive and the experience was entirely positive.

Love the Solar!

We got several solar bids last year and West Coast Solar was by far the most cost effective and provided 100% solar coverage. Ryan O is very knowledgeable and was great to work with. Our PG&E bills were $400 - $500 per month and going up with PG&E rates increases. The installation went well and we're saving money!

Done as they said

It's my pleasure picked West Coast Solar. All teams worked seamlessly from quotation to final inspection in professional way. No hiding stuff at all. They did as they said. My family are happy with the system since it connected to grid. The only small back was the tight resource of inspection which took longer time than I expected.

Response from West Coast Solar

Thank you for the feedback, Andy! We're glad you enjoyed your experience with us and apologize for that minor setback; often the inspection process falls a little outside of our realm of control, but we do our best! We hope you continue to enjoy your new solar system for years and years to come!

Great product and service at a competitive price!

My wife and I conducted a lot of homework before investing in a solar plan for our house. We met with several solar installation companies, read reviews, talked to friend and family etc. When we connected with West Coast Solar, they were obviously the right choice from the beginning. Mike Klemman was able to explain the process to us as well as give honest opinion as to pros and cons of investing in solar. He provided real talk from a real family man. Solar has been a great company to work with. We have had solar for over a year now and it has ben awesome having no electrical bill every month. We have even contacted Mike about a couple concerns with our solar, which is normal for any large project like this. Mike has always made time for us, was easy to get a hold of and ensured all of our concerns were immediately handled. I highly recommend going with West Coast Solar.

Response from West Coast Solar

Thanks for your review, Guy! We greatly appreciate your kind words and are glad you still love the solar grid we installed a while back this much. Creating a lasting impact for families like yours is exactly what we aim for, and it's always great when we get to hear we hit that goal. Thanks again!

My West Coast Solar Experience

I had talked to two or three companies regarding solar power. I found the people at West Coast were the most friendly, cooperative, upfront regarding all options. They are local and assisted with the construction of my home (different branch ?) I enjoy under $10 PG&E bills all summer and considered buying all electric heaters for the winter but decided against it. I will live with the heating bills.
