Wow, if you want a friendly, knowledgeable solar company, look no further than Johnson Solar. First of all, he was the least expensive of all the quotes I received. The procedure was expeditious from quote to final inspection. You will deal directly with the owner on everything. I could not be happier with the installations of the roof panels and batteries. Love the new system and the ability to say goodbye to outrageous utility bills. Thank you Clinton and your team for a fantastic job!
I sincerely appreciate Clinton and his team for completing my solar and Tesla battery installation under a tight time constraint, ensuring it was finished before the end of the year to meet the tax credit eligibility deadline. Clinton was true to his word, confident in getting the job done in a timely manner, and went the extra mile to guide me through the solar battery rebate process. The work was completed professionally, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision to go with Johnson Solar.
What else can is say about Clinton's team at Johnson Solar other than they are the freaking best!!Ill try to keep this short....We had another company lined up to get our brand new solar installed that 100% dropped the ball. With the clock ticking on the tax rebate coming up we need our system installed NOW!!After a couple conversations and bit of back n forth on invoice I knew Clinton, Ross and his team were the guys I could trust to get the job done in time. Once contract was signed, we paid the 1st part of the invoice and was surprised to see the team at our house 3 days later with a truck full of panels and our Tesla Powerwall3!!Even more surprising was the fact these guys installed an entire 10kw system with conduit and powerwall in 1 day! So mind blown that one morning we were on the grid and later that day we were free of SDGE....WIN WIN!!Now....we are 8 days post install.The system has gotten approved and has its Permit to Operate!We have imported about $1.50 in power in over a week.We have exported about $3 in power in the same time.This company was a miracle worker in a time when we needed a miracle to get the 30% tax credit.Trust these guys....they will get your job done fast with quality and care.
Hands down the best in the business! Not only are they the most affordable (we had estimates from Baker, Stellar, Semper, and Coastal) but their customer service is amazing! Clinton, the owner, makes sure he’s on site for every installation. We’ve had some issues with the EP Cube battery, and Clinton has been very hands-on to help resolve it. Now my neighbors are also looking to use Johnson Solar for their homes. Highly recommend them!!
Johnson Solar is hands down the best company out there! I can't begin to explain but, they deserve the best we can give back. It's really old school service and hard working employees. We called with a few questions and the next day Clinton was out first thing in the morning to give us a price and explain all the details. Within 24 hours our panels were in place running backwards in rabbit mode. That's why I say old school service, that's the working ethics of yesteryear.It's so nice not to have to worry about what hours are the best to use electricity to keep the bill down. Electric car, air conditioners and all the rest, and the bill is still a negative (which is a positive for the pocketbook) balance. It's weird how they work so happily together.Thank you, so very much Clinton and staff for the elite craftsmanship, customer service and prompt working ethics. The word of mouth is still the best bet for hands on craftsmanship and you can bet your bottom dollar that we'll tell everyone to go to the best, Johnson Solar! :)
