Jody quickly diagnosed the issue as a problem with our main electrical panel, which was broken and needed replacing (original panel in a house built in the 1970s). This is an extremely costly repair, unfortunately requiring a complete replacement job. He offered to try to put a temp fix in, but also offered to just replace the entire panel on the spot - on a Sunday afternoon, no less. This was extremely generous given the severe storm forecast for the next day - meaning it would normally be several days before it could be done. I am also heavily pregnant, so it was such a relief to be able to get the job done ASAP. Jody was quick, professional, friendly and efficient. After just a couple of hours, the entire panel was replaced, and our house was back to full electricity. He also referred us to a stucco repairman, as our older panel was larger - who will be handling this repair job later in the week. Although you never want to have to be hit with such a surprising cost, especially on a weekend no less, Jody made an unpleasant situation as pleasant as could be. The total cost was $2,500 plus the standard $300 call out charge for a Sunday visit. We will definitely call All City Electric for any future needs - hopefully not on an emergency basis!

He told me the double door strip didn't need replacing and he could just reattach it to the door. He repaired that, lubricated the door and opener and gave me an estimate for the rest. He gave me 2 options for the damaged panel, replace the one panel or replace the whole door. Even he was surprised how pricy it was to just do one panel so I ended up replacing with a new door.

This would require, among other things, that they cut my driveway up to drop the conduit 3 feet down. ADI came to the house to assess the cost and quoted me an additional $3,500 to meet the requirements of Edison. This would not cover the cost of the driveway repair or stucco repair to the house.

FAQs for solar panel service projects in Orange County, CA
The average cost to install solar panels is around $26,600, and most homeowners pay between $4,500 and $53,000. Keep in mind that these prices don’t consider the federal investment tax credit (ITC), which can effectively reduce those costs by up to 30%. The price you can expect to pay for solar panel installation depends on the size of the system, where you live, the type and brand of panels, and the labor costs. Get price quotes from at least three solar companies in your area to find the best deal.
In most states, solar installers need to be licensed and insured as solar professionals, although some states don’t have specific requirements for installers. You can use our state licensing tool to check if an installer you’re considering hiring holds the proper licensing. No matter where you live, a member of your solar panel installation company must be a certified electrician to connect your panels to your home and the electric grid.
Does your total price include the equipment and labor?
How long do you expect the installation process to take?
What kind of workmanship warranty do you include with your installations?
Who should I contact if I have a problem with my system after installation?
Do you install the panels or outsource the work to third parties?
Will you file for solar incentives for me?
In most cases, yes, solar panels are well worth the investment. Going solar with your home’s energy is expensive, but, in most states, the panels will pay for themselves by reducing your electric bills. Solar panels don’t produce greenhouse gasses or other pollutants, meaning you can feel good about using this renewable energy source to power your home. Plus, installing solar panels can boost your home value, helping your profit off your next home sale.
Yes, solar panel installation will require permits. The required permits will depend on where you live, as some states and cities have solar-specific permits, while others only require electrical permits to connect to the grid. In either case, it’s best to hire a reputable solar installer in your area, as a representative should handle all of the necessary permitting for you and will include the cost of the permits in your initial solar estimate.
