He walked us through the entire process and made sure each step of the way we were taken care of. All of the workers were very professional and did an amazing job.

"I live "off the grid" so 100% of my electricity is from solar panels and battery storage. Recently my 21 year old system was starting to fail forcing me to continually run my generator. After researching and spending a large amount of time reading reviews online I contacted TARGET ELECTRIC & SOLAR for a quote. The next day they sent out an ELECTRICIAN to assess my needs and requirements. The following day I had a formal written quote. I had a few minor changes so they revised the quote. I told them I had an upcoming surgery scheduled so the timing was critical. I had just gone to Costco and loaded my freezer with over $300 in frozen food and that was going to melt down. The owner of Target Electric offered to let me put my food in his church/community centers freezers. I used my own church's freezers. Who does that? Target Electric laid out a three tier payment schedule and we got the project started. The components were shipped directly to my home and within a day or two the cre"

"Stellar Solar did an amazing job installing our system, 26 panels plus Tesla Power Wall. Johnny and the team were helpful throughout the process, gave us a fair price, and the system works exactly as we had planned. If you're considering solar, go with them!"

"My solar system was installed by a now bankrupt company. I loss power totally in May. Solar Services came in and found the problem which was a bad inverter that was verified by the vendor SolarEdge who promptly sent out a replacement unit at no charge as the inverter was under warranty. Solar Service Pros replaced the defective unit and I'm up and running again in two weeks. Great service, will do business with them again!"

"We decided to upgrade to solar/battery. After extensive research we selected McKay (now Nuonenergy) for both re-roofing and solar/battery install. Reason for choosing them was due to competitive price, single source for both re-roofing and solar/battery install as well as a very helpful and friendly sales team. The install went smoothly. Explained workflow in advance the completed work in a timely fashion. Work was completed by different teams all of whom were professional and friendly. They left worksite clean and communicated next steps in advance so we could plan our day. System install now completed, including all inspections by city and electrical provider. Very satisfied with the service we received from McKay/Nuonenergy."

"i could not be happier with OC Solar, they deserve all of the hype! i have worked with Vinnie and the oc solar team for over 5 years and done many projects with their team. they are always on time, priced well, easy to work with, and the communication is excellent. itâ s hard to find good contractors, so when you find one, you have to tell people, and OC Solar is worth putting my name on the line for. we have had them install Tesla power walls for us, specifically the tesla power wall 3. they have installed Panasonic and q cell panels for us and the installation quality is top of the line. highly recommend, 10/10. choose ur installer wisely, los Angeles is not easy to work with, so i recommend a proven company like OC Solar"

"I had been struggling for months to get my solar hot water system functioning properly, and spent a lot of money in the process. In total frustration, i looked for another company to fix the problem. Clean Tech responded immediately to my telephone message and had a technician out the same day. Issues others had not been able to resolve were fixed in 20 minutes! The system has been operating efficiently since their service."

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

In most cases, installing solar panels will not void your roof warranty. To keep roof warranties intact, check your written warranty or call the manufacturer to ask about clauses regarding roof penetrations. You can also protect yourself by getting written approval or a modified warranty that specifically allows the solar installation type you’re planning. Then, hire a professional solar installer that follows roofing manufacturer instructions and protects the roof during installation.

Solar panels should get at least four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. It’s even better if sunlight reaches panels between the peak hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. This is enough to power a home, depending on your solar system’s size and energy needs. Remember that panels will generate some power under cloudy skies or in the shade, and many systems compensate for lower sun exposure by drawing energy from the grid or battery storage.

  • Installing a new electrical meter box

  • Replacing your meter base

  • Replacing your service entrance cable 

The cost to install or upgrade an electrical meter box ranges from $100 to $650, including $50 to $250 for the unit. The meter base passes the power from your electric company to your panel. The cost to replace a meter base is roughly $50 to $250. 

Service entrance cables are electrical cables with multiple wires, bringing power from electrical companies to residential buildings. The cost to replace a service entrance cable ranges roughly from $1,000 to $1,500.

While solar panels can be a great investment, they aren’t ideal for every roof. For example, some roofs, especially older or structurally weak ones, may struggle to support the added weight, leading to potential damage. Roofs with complex designs, obstructions, or limited sunlight exposure might not provide optimal conditions for solar energy production. Consider these downsides when determining if solar panel installation costs are worth it.

Installing solar panels is worth it if you’re frustrated with paying high utility bills, live in a sunny location, and qualify for tax credits and incentives. Most homeowners cut between $650 and $1,500 from their utility bills each year by installing solar panels. Over the course of your panel’s warranty, you could save anywhere from $16,300 to $37,500, though those in sunny areas with high energy costs could save more than $100,000.
