    No sense of urgency. 0 customer service skills. My project has yet to be completed after 5 months. They don't care about their customers at all. I hope other people read this and steer clear of them. I call them day after day to no help.

    I recently signed a contract with LASolar for home battery backup installation. The site survey was done within a few days. Lots of engineering work was put into designing my system due to space constraints at my home/garage. I appreciated LASolar and its teams for being so responsive and straightforward during the entire process. Go LASolar!!! Hope they will help many others like they did for me.

    I was told I would get a 10.000 dollar credit for adding solar then I was told I would get a new house thermostat. Never got it. I was told the third who work for LA SOLAR no longer works for them. LA Solar said it was a third party who said they said I would get a 10,000 credit not them but the party were working for la solar at the time of sale. L

    I have been a long time customer of LA Solar Group. Today I met David, a tecnician with LA Solar, sent to my house to be present when the county inspector comes to "certify" the LA Solar installation of my fourth battery. I should say that I live in a wild fire area with a medical condition. As with all of La Solar's work, the installation was passed without exception. But David noticed that my battery #2 was not online. After the inspection David came back later in the day to seek a solution as to why the second battery was not online. Where others has failed to diagnose David got to the bottom of the matter and when he left he said TESLA recognized the defective battery and will be sending a new one out. David is the kind of LA Solar employee that I admire. He went an extra measure for a customer and was successful.

    Hi Peter,

    Thank you for this detailed review and for being a long-time customer. We're glad the county inspection for your fourth battery passed cleanly, the standard our field teams uphold. We appreciate you highlighting the technical diligence. Noticing a battery was offline, diagnosing the issue, and securing the Tesla replacement is the thorough follow-through we expect. Thank you again for your continued business.

    LA Solar installed and 11 kw system and also two tesla batteries. They overcharged for the batteries and did not apply their fat rebate. The installation took over a year and in the long run, they ruined the roof and it took several years in court to get one of several judgements.

    It is now 9/30/23. I purchased 20 panels from LA Solar Group in 2018 which they installed over my brand new roof. I have had several leaks since then that were patched. The big storms we had this Jan/23 caused major leaks because of poor installation to begin with. They have "no showed no called" me so many times, completely ignored my calls, and messages, I put in multiple claims to get their attention to no avail. The water has caused so much damage to my house it is unreal. Roof damage, wet attic insulation, drywall. 9 months of runaround from LA Solar Group. They came out once to patch. It still leaks. They claim they guarantee their work, how can they if their work is completely faulty?

    Their employees are not trained professionals. I had one guy show up to supposedly do repair and he did not speak any English. Ok, I am not against that but then he Google translated to me that he will do the job cheaper than what we are paying to LA Solar Group. He was trying to undercut his own employer. "Um, you are here to do warranty work. I am not paying anything." Suffice it to say, he left without doing anything. No surprise. On and on it goes. A new project manager reaches out. I have a sliver of hope. New appointment time. We wait stupidly. No one shows. We are fools. We have waited for 9 months like dummies. I am now writing reviews because this company has stolen from me. I have paid them for 20 panels (you do the math) and they have not provided what they promised. I call that theft.

    For starters, I was lied to about availability of the Solar panels I actually wanted. This has and still is a complete nightmare from the day I signed the contract. The CSLB just had an inspection done of the installation that LA Solar has done. Bottom line, FIRE AND ELECTRICAL HAZARD! Apart from them damaging my artificial turf, and my roof tiles, the whole system was a BOTCH JOB, the defects and deviations are too numerous to list. LA Solar Group has so many complaints, the CSLB is revoking their license. Now I have to hire a lawyer to get compensation to repair what they have broken, and remove this complete crap that was installed on my roof.

    Too bad I am not able to upload pictures of the crappy work that they have done. Their installers were smoking weed in my driveway on 3 separate occasions BEFORE they started working on my home. LA Solar was here more than 12 different days working on my Install. One would think after so many days and different technicians, the job would be perfect. Now we live in fear because this system will probably catch our home on fire, and more than likely electrocute someone. Run from this company!

    LA Solar was doing a solar installation for a neighbor of ours. We are good friends so we talked to them about it. They were happy. We decided that LA Solar might be the right people to go for solar. We did it and we're happy with it. Due mostly to COVID, we never met with them and we interacted by email. Their rep was available every time I had a question and answered all of them. He sent an email right away to respond. He was pretty good.

    The installation took a few months. It was rainy season and there was no construction because of the rain. There was also an issue because the installers did some work. Another group showed up another time and finished the installation of the panel. It was left incomplete because all of it was not connected for whatever reason. I was not happy about that because there was no consistency. People might not know what was done and what needed to be continued to be done. There was a little lack of communication. This was during COVID and LA Solar was trying to bring in new hires so we decided to just be patient with them.

    The electrician was very good and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, there was a language barrier with some of the people and we couldn't communicate with them well. LA Solar said they were gonna send somebody for the breakers but they never did. We have no idea which is which with the breakers. None of them has a new sign indicating which room or area they belong to. I've been very busy with everything else that it's hard for me to keep going back and forth with LA Solar to have them come and fix it. The job hasn't been done yet. I was going to do it with my husband but the city inspector was here and said, "No. It's their job and they better do it." I should do more follow-ups. I have some questions about some issues, but I haven't reached out to them. That aside, I have recommended LA Solar to many friends.

    When I chose LA Solar, they were prompt with their service of coming out to do the job and the job was done for what we agreed on. The permits took the longest, getting it approved. But the installation only took a day or two. We've seen a lower monthly bill since we got the system. There's a good payback after eight years and the process of doing it is easy.

    I got the best deal with LA Solar. I had a rough start with the installation, but once they got started, things went really well from there. There were days that they said that they were coming out and I was supposed to be here and nobody told me I was supposed to be here and I was at work. Then, there were times they told me I need to be here and I didn't need to be here. Those were the big things that stood out because, now, they were interfering with my work. So, that aggravated me. Part of it could have been me too because I was anxious to get started. But since then, once it was up, they've been great. I can go on the app and I can look at how much solar I'm putting out on it. I don't always go out there and check the system, but they could call me and tell me or text me or email me and say, "Hey, your system's offline. You need to reset it." So, I'll reset it. The system's worked really well.

    I have recommended LA Solar. They gave me a good price. If you don't wanna go through the bidding process and do all that, you might just reach out to them or just reach out to a couple of companies. I always tell others to take a look to see what they're willing to offer. Since then, I think the panels have upgraded. They got better batteries now and this and that. They have different incentives and upgrades available. They tried to get me to get a battery. I don't have an electric car, so it was really no point except for the rolling blackouts that we may or may not have. Overall, it's been a positive experience.

    I supplied them with my banking information for automatic payments. But they suddenly billed me for three months at one time. I've done that twice. I had to resend them my bank information. They admitted one time it was their fault. But it's been like that. I just don't trust them with my billing. But there's been a dramatic difference in utility bills since going solar.

    Somebody from LA Solar contacted me and asked me when would be a good time to come out and if I was interested in leasing the system or purchasing it. So, instead of paying out 60,000, I decided to lease the system. I talked to my wife and she was okay with it. We went ahead and leased it. They came out a month later to do the overview of the planning, how many panels, and all the fine details. After that, somebody came out, started doing the installation work. It took three months to do and finalize everything, and COVID hit. I was forced to sell in the High Desert along with the solar system from LA Solar.

    I communicated with Anna from LA Solar and she asked me, "What do you think? You'll be able to want the system again? How do you feel?" Unfortunately, Edison had decided to do away with the tier system and just send out a mass-generated bill to everybody and say, "Pay this dollar amount off as the year goes on." I had to decide between 500 of my Edison bill from the High Desert, not my mom's Edison bill. When they combined both bills, I was looking at about a little over $1,100 to pay those off. I told Anna, "I'm not sure, but I still want the system." It helped me out in the High Desert and I'm sure it would help me out here in Fontana.

    She was able to accommodate me, go through the red tape, and I thank her very much because I have the solar system here in the house I grew up in the system. The system itself has helped out a lot. Other families around the neighborhood that I live next to are barely getting their solar system and paying way much for their system than what I'm paying for. I appreciate everything LA Solar did for me. I am now just barely seeing the difference and I appreciate it because not only was I having surge outages in the home, I was losing half of the electrical power. I thank LA Solar for going through all the obstacles that they did to get me the solar here in Fontana. I was very satisfied with them at the beginning. I'm still satisfied with them as of now. All the energy-efficient things that I have here, I am running them more comfortably than I have before. I have a lot more appliances and it helped me out so much.

    LA Solar is a solid local company. And they would get you started. Our system is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Whatever it costs, you're guaranteed the return on your money. It's like having a factory on top of your house making energy for you. You have to be brain-damaged not to do it if you can. When the system went down, LA Solar took them longer to fix it. That was a year later, though. Overall, it was a good experience.

    I already had solar. I couldn't find anybody to update my existing system pretty much except LA Solar agreed to do it. I wanted to upgrade. I called Tesla too and they wanted to put the solar on the front of the house where it was visible and gets less daylight. LA Solar did it the right way. I have this really steep-pitched roof that faces the morning sunlight. It gets no afternoon sunlight. That's where Tesla wanted to install it. You would drive down the block, you'd see the solar. Right now, LA Solar and my existing older solar system are on my upper roof. You can't even tell I have it except if you see the box on the side of the house. The old system was up on the upper roof. LA Solar added to it. They did the measurement and said, "Yes, it can go on the upper roof," and they did it. I wanted to go with Tesla, initially, but LA Solar was better.

    I spoke to two engineers at LA Solar. My degree was in computer engineering. They spoke my language. They were a pleasure to deal with. They knew the codes, Tesla didn't know the codes. They're telling me, "You can't do this." I'm like, "No, I read the code. Why can't I do this? This is what the code says." LA Solar and I read the same code. Tesla is just doing whatever they think. I got a great deal with LA Solar. I thought it was a very fair price considering everything that they did. I have no beef with the cost. I did the first unit years ago and I spent 33,000 for 7.41 kWp. This time, I spent 13,000 for 4.5 kWp. So, the cost has come down a lot. LA Solar went above and beyond. Their guys told me when they were coming out, they came out, they did what they had to do and they were very professional.
