Reviews
"The installation of solar on our home has been a pleasure throughout the process. Sandbar are a local business and everyone we interacted with clearly enjoy what they are doing, were professional and care deeply about the quality of the installation and their relationship with clients - who after-all are neighbors. We learned much throughout the process from the original design, permitting, installation and future maintenance. The installers checked back with us to ensure all was working fine. We recommend allowing Sandbar to deal with the permitting and liaison with PG&E. Our job was not simple but they were able to shepherd our project through the numerous hurdles at a very reasonable fee. In summary - this was a great experience throughout the project - particularly with the Sandbar people."
"We recently had the pleasure of working with Sandbar Solar for our home solar panel installation, and are beyond impressed with the exceptional service, communication, and quality of their work. Realizing that installing a solar system is a big expense, we did our due diligence by reaching out to three local companies to gather information. After speaking with them all there was a clear choice. From the initial consultation to the completion of the project, Sandbar exhibited a level of professionalism that exceeded our expectations. Their team was incredibly responsive, answering all our questions and concerns with patience and in-depth knowledge. They guided us through every step of the process, from initial inquiry to final installation, ensuring we were comfortable and informed. The communication was also exceptional. They kept us updated throughout the entire project, providing detailed explanations of each stage and what to expect next. Their proactive approach in keeping us in the loop eliminated any potential stress or confusion, which we greatly appreciated. As for the quality of their work, it is evident that Sandbar takes immense pride in what they do. The installation was seamless, efficient, and conducted with the utmost professionalism. The attention to detail was remarkable, and the team went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. The final result is a sleek, high-performing solar system that not only looks great but also functions flawlessly. Equally the after-service support has been impressive. They have made it clear that their relationship with clients extends beyond the installation, offering ongoing support and advice. We also appreciate their dedication to sustainability and environmentally friendly practices. It's clear that Sandbar is not just in the business of installing solar panels; they are passionate about making a positive impact on the environment. We would highly recommend Sandbar to anyone considering a solar panel installation. Their commitment to excellence, open communication, and impeccable workmanship make them a standout choice. Our experience was nothing short of outstanding, and we are now enjoying the benefits of clean, renewable energy thanks to Sandbar. If you're looking for a reliable, professional, and customer-focused solar company, Sandbar Solar is the way to go!"
"We've been running on solar for 3 months now thanks to Sandbar's installation, and everything has worked perfectly. We expected to run into installation delays because of timing (trying to make the NEM2 application deadline), but Sandbar adhered to the schedule that they initially shared. And even better, they were available to answer questions every time we called and accommodated a late change for our electrician to upgrade to a 200 amp panel. They communicated every PG&E and County site visit/inspection so we could be present. Everyone we worked with at Sandbar was stellar-- they clearly care about the quality of their work. We will definitely use them if we decide to add battery storage to our installation."
"After interviewing five "local" solar installation companies and doing our due diligence, we chose Sandbar Solar for our solar installation in 2023. One of our neighbors (who had Sandbar as their solar installer) were very pleased with Sandbar's professionalism, customer service and installation - and recommended them highly. Our experience was the same ... excellent! Nothing fell through the cracks, as a customer you can actually speak to a live person (!) and the team was on time for all appointments. Lastly, we appreciated the after-installation follow up. Sandbar is top-notch from beginning to end!"
"We're now at about the 6 month mark for our new solar installation, and frankly, we couldn't be happier with the results and the work that Sandbar did. When we started, we knew the solar installers were going to be busy with the rush to get in under NEM2.0, but Jarrett was knowledgeable, super-responsive, and incredibly patient with our questions. With the demand, we did have to wait a bit for installation, but Jarrett and Jocelyn made sure to keep us in the loop as they managed scheduling, permits, and the utility interconnection process. Installation went smoothly and the crew was on time, polite, and professional. PG&E took some time to do their part, but in the end we turned the switch on, and we're selling power to them now, instead of buying! The Q Cell panels and Enphase inverters and combiner are working great and the reporting tools included have been very useful. Sandbar will be our first choice if we look to expand or add functionality, and we'd recommend them to anyone looking to make the jump to solar."
