"It would be wise to not sign an agreement nor pay upfront before doing a little research on what the job entails. In haste, I did't do any research before committing to the agreement and paying the full amount. In retrospect, I should have waited until I checked all the angles before committing to the job, I would have save over $700 on this project."

At American Construction, Plumbing and Electric, we’re a full-service remodeling and construction company proudly licensed in General Contracting, Plumbing, Electrical, and HVAC. With all trades handled in-house, we provide streamlined project execution from start to finish—eliminating the delays and miscommunication that come with outsourcing. Backed by over 30 years of combined experience between our business partners, we deliver professional, code-compliant work across all phases of residential and light commercial construction. From kitchen remodels to full home renovations, we’re your one-stop solution for quality craftsmanship and reliable service.

"We originally wanted to wait until our spa was fully finished to leave a review, but we just had to rave about Gabe and his team. They have been SO easy to work with—and when you’re opening a second spa location in San Diego, easy is everything. Gabe moved fast (he’ll be done by Monday—EEK!), and for business owners, time is money, so having a contractor who’s in and out efficiently is HUGE. During the project, he discovered some mold in the building. Not only did he notify the property owners immediately, but he also took care of the remediation, followed all proper protocols, and handled it all on his own. We’re forever grateful for how quickly and professionally he resolved it. Honestly, our favorite thing about working with Gabe is how he consistently goes above and beyond—especially in ways we didn’t expect, which meant a lot to us as two female business owners. We never once felt taken advantage of, which sadly can be a rare experience in this industry. To give you an idea of how fast he worked: our space includes five treatment rooms, two storage rooms, a kitchen, an office, and a lobby. He redesigned and completed the whole buildout in just over a month. He’s also a great communicator—sending us frequent updates, photos, and videos of the progress, which gave us so much peace of mind since we couldn’t always be on-site. His pricing is incredibly fair and, in our opinion, makes him unmatched in this industry. His work is impeccable, and it doesn’t break the bank. We truly could not recommend Gabe and his team more!"

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts
  • 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.

Most solar panels last 25 to 30 years and have a warranty to match. Over time, you’ll see a diminishing electrical output. This is normal wear, but certain things can hasten solar degradation. These include heavy rainfall, high temperatures, constant humidity that corrodes the frame, and cracks or chips in the glass.

Not all homes are suited for solar panel systems. Older roofs or those in poor condition may need repairs or replacement before solar panels can be installed. Some other factors to consider are the amount of sunlight your roof receives, the roof’s orientation and pitch, and any shading from nearby trees or buildings.

The best solar-panel mounting system will depend on your property layout, but you’ll typically want to try for south-facing panels to get the most sun. Roof mounting and wall mounting are both popular, but if your well setup is far away from buildings and other structures you can also set up a freestanding aluminum frame to mount your panels.

The best way to know if your roof can support solar panels is to hire a structural engineer. They’ll look at your roof and approve the design of your solar panel system or suggest changes. The best roofing for solar panels is made from strong materials like asphalt shingles and metal, but tile and gravel will work. Softer materials like thatch or temporary structures are not a good fit.
