Customer Reviews

Donald Tinder

The staff is very friendly and helpful in understanding all that is involved in the commitment to buy or lease solar power. During the initial survey and the actual installation and connecting they continue to explain what is done and why.

I'm on my fourth project with SL&P and I have to say that they are one of the very best contracting companies I have worked with. They are very thorough and attentive to detail. The workmanship has been outstanding. The contracts have been very clear regarding payment and everything has been above board. Also they work well with the county and PG&E permitting processes. All of that has been transparent to me.

Excellent experience. Sun Light and Power helped me repair my solar array when my original installer went out of business and my main inverter failed. Super professional and responsive. Adam the technician was excellent, as was Scott Gahan on the back end. Would definitely recommend to others.

We hired SLP due to the our previous contractor was very non-responsive. SLP has been nothing short of a fantastic. They got our solar system back up and running, troubleshoot, and resolve any issues in a timely, and quick manner. The Team assigned to us is so responsive, highly knowledgeable, and so pleasant to work with. They explain in detail, and the reports produced during the Annual Preventative Maintenance is so precise and clear. I would highly recommend SLP.

From start to finish it was a informative and pleasant experience. The sales person did his best to answer all my questions but he never stepped over the boundaries of making over optimistic predictions to get the sales. When the work began I was a bit worried about my metal roof shingles (they dent/bend easily) but the roofers were professional. Installation went smoothly with the exception of finding Redwood Shingles under the metal shingles. After the system was installed I was pleasantly surprised by my savings. The biggest savings was getting me off PG&E's tier 5 gross electrical user charges. One of my power converters stopped working, Sunlight & Power came out and found a faulty converter. Sunlight & Power called the manufacturer of the converter, long story short I received a new converter. I love my solar system and I will continue to swear by Sunlight & Power's service and professional staff. Thank you Gary M. Stewart
