I actually came into contact with CalState Solar through Irvine Pacific (IP) - apparently they're IP's go-to solar installers for the new tract developments in north Irvine. Honestly, I can see why - very friendly, fast, and professional responses. I've had immense pleasure working with Dannette on the quotation for a new solar system on a different property and she definitely made the setup process for my primary home in north Irvine a very easy and smooth process. Mark Pearce (I think he's one of the co-owners of the family-owned business), has also been very friendly and

I just have to say that Calstate Solar was very professional and very very helpful. We were having issues with the utility company and Dani took care of it for us and had us on their schedule for our solar system to be activated within 8 days after this issue was taken care of.
Andy was very helpful in explaining our system and how to check to make sure they are working properly. Dani in the office was great. She answered all of our questions and even sent us a check up email to make sure everything went smoothly. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to put solar panels on their

Very unprofessional company. When we were trying to connect our solar, Danielle, the scheduler, scheduled the tech to come out to our house from 1-4pm or else they will not be able to come for a couple of weeks so we took time off of work to stay home for the tech to arrive. The tech never arrived and when we emailed her after 4pm, she emailed us back that the tech "broke down" and that they will email us the next day for an update. At 11:28am, she emailed us that the tech is available from 12-2pm and 10 minutes later, the tech called us telling us that they are only available now. We

Having the same problem as the other reviewer Timmy. Have been waiting since March to get ours activated. They do not seem to have anyone there to answer their telephone lines.

James set me up with solar in my house about 6 years ago. Haven't had a Bill in 5 of those years and only finally had a Bill this last year for 200 dollars, the fault of Edison mainly due to their new policy of paying them to be connected to the grid we supply power to. The system basically paid for it self in about 2 years after incentives. Very happy with the install and service. Highly recommend James and Cal State Solar. Great family business

Good luck getting someone to answer the phone or respond back to you via email in a timely manner. You may end up waiting weeks, if ever, for this company to send someone out to activate your solar panels. Very unacceptable.
