Recommended Customer Reviews

After watching our Utility bills climb steadily, we'd looked into solar for our home.
Our research showed that owning our own solar system was a very good investment,
if we worked with a reputable company.
We were urged by friends to look at Sun Solar Electric, and after we did, chose them.
They proved to be very knowledgeable, highly efficient, and Jayson gave us a great price on first grade equipment!
The crew was great with our dogs-and always made sure gate securing them stayed closed.
We're glad our friends recommended SSE to us. We'd recommend Sun Solar Electric to anyone
thinking about getting solar.

I've used Mike, Jayson and their crew for several years now for electrical jobs on my home and have recommended them to many friends all over the Bay Area. They've always been professional and their quality of work shows.
Just over a year ago, I purchased a solar panel system from them consisting of LG panels and Enphase Micro inverters. Upon my anniversary and my true-up period, I was right about where I should be. And while there's recent issues w/ other current companies' solar panels and equipment, my system is solid.
Mike and Jayson won't try to scam you, try to gouge you or put you in a high cost solar lease. They are super knowledgeable about their products and their recommendations can be trusted. They clearly care about their clients!
I would highly recommend this company for any electrical or solar work you need.

Best solar panel company in the Bay Area. These guys are priced competitive and the quality of work is amazing. I had a solar panel installation done in LA and let me tell you going with the cheapest price ended up costing us thousands in repair. I went with Mike and Jason because the quality of work they present is unmatched!

If you have electrical work, there is no need to go anywhere else.
These guys are professional, friendly, show up on time, answer the phone when you call, helpful with questions, do great work and were priced LESS than a competitor who was not nearly as professional.
Kudos to Brett for a great job.

We had Sun Solar Electric come by for a consultation they were on time & provided an estimate in a timely manner and scheduled the day of service. We just had Sun Solar Electric Complete their service and again they were on time and very professional. We highly recommend hiring them for any electrical work they are knowledgeable and friendly and provide fair estimates. They also provide many other services such as setting up the proper voltage for electric vehicles outlets. We look forward to working with them again soon.

Jayson came by to give me an estimate on solar installation and breaker upgrade! Jayson was very professional and knowledgeable!
Gave me great information and was very honest!
Looking forward to doing more business in the future with Sun Solar Electric!

I set up an appointment with Jayson to do an estimate on installing an EV charger. He neither showed up for the appointment nor called to say he wasn't coming. The first thing I look for in a contractor/repair person is dependability. Draw your own conclusions.

I had Jayson come to my place to provide an estimate regarding the installation of an EV charger. Due to my electrical set up there was a mutual decision made to not move forward with installation. As we spoke I explained to Jayson that my outside electrical socket doesn't work. Jayson (free of charge!) replaced the socket and gave me advice regarding the maintenance of the outlet. I would recommend Jayson to anyone who is looking for someone is honest, trustworthy, and is knowledgeable about his craft.

Jayson is totally honest, could have taken me to the cleaners but said all I probably will have to do is get my panels cleaned! This is the kind of honesty that makes one a long term customer, can't recommend him highly enough.

Mike has worked at my house numerous times - he and his guys are the best. From outdoor lighting design and install, to work inside the house he's high quality and super communicative.
