"I've worked with the team at Ortega for more than 5 years for projects at both my home and a rental property. Work has included installation of new heating/cooling package unit, water heater installation/replacement (2), evaporative cooler installation, and miscellaneous heating and plumbing repairs. They are always quick to respond and get the job done as promised and per their estimate. Highly recommend."

"We had two major plumbing jobs done recently by this company. The first was to replace the water line in the crawl space and to install cleanouts; the second was to replace the sewer line in front of the house. After the second job was done, we noticed that the sprinkler valve in the front of the house had been broken. It sits next to the area where the sewer line work was done. After at least two weeks, much hedging, and many delays, we were finally able to get this valve replaced by the company. However, they did not wire it correctly, and the system could not be controlled from the panel on the back of the house. Today when someone else went to reconfigure it, he completed the work and then claimed that the wires to operate the two sprinkler zones in the front were nonexistent. This is absolutely false; I have lived in this house for 12 years and always had two sprinkler zones in the front yard. This needs to be repaired so that it is back to the way it was before this was all broken, but he claims there's nothing he can do. On top of this, when I asked a simple question about whether or not I should turn the valve on/off or just use the control panel, he said that the whole sprinkler system hadn't been set up but that they would be happy to do yet another project for us and do it the "right way." I don't quite understand how this company can claim to have the expertise to reconfigure our entire system but not fix a minor wiring problem. It feels like we are being manipulated into giving them more projects and therefore more money. I would like this issue fixed without paying them for any other projects. After being unable to resolve this with the plumbers who had done the work on our system, I called the company and spoke to a manager. She was able to send someone out to our house who knew more about sprinkler systems and to finally resolve the problem. The company made it clear that they wanted us to be happy with the service, and the manager was very gracious. I would just like to see this level of communication and professionalism across the board. The people who do the work need to request help if they cannot fix something, and they need to understand that proposing bigger jobs instead of fixing a smaller one is not a good way to instill trust. Thank you!"

"Greg did a wonderful job with replacing our water heater and now works well and looks good. He was able to come in the next day after getting a quote from him. It did take him a whole day just because he didn’t have his helper. Otherwise, good service!"

"Title: Exceptional, trustworthy plumbing — highly recommended Galactic Mechanical & Plumbing exceeded every expectation. After a frustrating runaround with other companies, Jordan drove up from Albuquerque to Santa Fe, waived the trip charge, and quickly diagnosed that I only needed a faucet fixture (not a full sink). He went to Home Depot, installed the new fixture, fixed a few other small issues, and left everything working — all billed fairly for one hour of labor. Jordan was professional, efficient, and honest; Megan in the office was courteous and helpful. As a longtime local with two homes, I’m already planning to use Galactic as my go-to plumber. Highly recommend them for reliable, respectful, and skilled service. Thank you, Jordan."

"Rep. checked entire system. He found several wires not connected properly and fixed this. He also made recommendations regarding the attachment of the panels to the rood that would provide more stability and leakproofing. The representative appeared to know what he was doing - much better than others, including the representative who was engaged by the roofer (who replaced our rood due to hail damage) to disconnect/connect the panels."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

Solar panels can pay for themselves in five to 15 years, depending on the cost of your system, how much energy it generates, whether you qualify for incentives or power buybacks, and the price of energy in your area. Solar panels pay for themselves over time as they lower electricity bills, so it will take time to recoup your initial investment. However, the longer you have your system, the more money you can save and earn.

Installing solar panels involves drilling small holes in your roof to secure the solar panel mounting brackets. These brackets hold the solar panels in place and must withstand strong weather conditions so they’re secured into your roof. However, holes and screws are sealed to prevent leaking and further damage.

Solar well pumps range from needing 200 watts of power to as much as 12,000 watts for heavy-duty pumps. Since the most common and cost-friendly solar panels are 100-watt panels, you’ll need between two and 12 panels. The average is between two and eight panels for standard pumps. Based on the average cost of solar panels ($1 to $1.50 per watt), you’d pay between $200 and $1,800 for your well pump solar panels—not including installation.

Solar shingles and solar panels are not the same. While solar shingles use the same technology as traditional solar panels, they integrate with your existing roof. That means they are used to build your roof instead of simply resting on top of it. When comparing solar shingles and solar panels, it's helpful to know that solar shingles are more aesthetically pleasing than solar roof panels. They also do better in harsh weather due to limited uplift from strong winds.

Solar water heating systems are not one-size-fits-all. You'll likely work with a team of experts to get the job done—including solar panel installers, plumbers, and water heater installers. A specialist will help you decide if a passive or active system is best for your local weather, home layout, roof stability, and your budget.
