We had Semper Solaris do our solar panelsOur experience w semper has been greatThroughout the entire process, Caesar Loche was excellent and supportive, as were other members of the SemperSolaris Team To us, dealing with regular people and also with military backgrounds was key to choosing themWe love our Solar so far! Now we don't need to worry so much about running that A/C a little more during the hot summer months

I chose Semper Solaris after looking at several other companiesThe product they offer is top quality from what my research has shown They back it up with a "bumper to bumper" warranty that includes laborOther companies drop off labor many years earlier which drives concern of the reliability of the products
A few items that I liked about their productFirst, the inverter is part of each solar panel Since this is covered for the years as with the panel, I do not have to worry about failure Second, individual inverter should help with overall power production throughout the yearSecond, there is a single roof penetration for the power cables and a conduit is used internally as much as possible This leaves a short external run of conduit on the exterior walls of the house Paying attention to detail, they paint this external conduit to match your house color
Setting up the contract was made easy by Mark A*** He did what none of the other companies did prior to wanting you to sign the contract He inspected my power panel and its location to ensure we would have no additional expense surprises later Others expect you to sign the contract and then they perform this survey Possibly leaving you stuck with large additional expenses
Michael C*** was my project manager He kept me well informed throughout the process from me getting my HOA approval to the final inspection by the city before SDGE approved permission to operate He followed up after the project was complete to ensure I did not have any issues and informed me that I could contact him anytime in the future should I have any questions He also provided me some photos of the installation preventing the need for me to climb onto my roof
Beside the smooth installation and the expected quality of the system, I must state they were able to give me a comparable system and pricing as other competitorsI would recommend Semper Solar to anyone looking at buying or leasing a solar system to reduce their electric billing

I’ve had other companies come talk to me, but I know so much more about solar and how it works and how it will work for me from Caesar L***’s presentation than anyone elseHe was incredibly helpful and answered all of my questionsHe showed me all my choices with purchasing and leasing the solar systemEveryone should have the opportunity to sit down with someone who actually helps

I recently had solar panels installed by Semper Solaris, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! The price was very reasonable, and their quality of work was top notch The entire team was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and super quick to respond to any questions I had along the way In particular, Mark ***, Darren ***, and Jenny ** managed the construction phase really well and kept me in the loop throughout the entire process to make sure my project was properly installed and completed in a timely manner Also, the sales consultant, Brian ***, met with me several times at the beginning to educate me and go through my options to make sure I picked the best system for my needs He was very upfront with how everything works and didn’t try to oversell me for more than I needed I would highly recommend this company for anyone considering adding solar panels on their home!

It's easy, all went perfectAmazing project management, best panel on the market (made in USA!), great installation! Cannot be better

If you are looking for solar, stop now! Semper Solaris is the company you want to chooseI had a star experience from start to finish! We first met with Gavin to go over all of our solar needsHe answered all of our questions and was more knowledgeable than several other companies I met with Our new system actually cost less than I was expecting! We also upgraded to a 200amp service panel during the installAll in all top notch service all the way!

We were finally looking for a local solar company (end of Nov 2017) due to the high prices of electricity We got recommended to Semper Solaris and I cannot stop talking good thinks about this company Since the first meeting with Genevieve, Senior consultant explaining the entire process and understanding and analyzing our solar needs to actually getting the job coordinated with Michael *** Everything went lightning speed Michael was always in contact with us and always informing us about each step of the way, every conversation, meeting and discussion was handled professionally
We are truly satisfied with the quality work and follow up efforts that Michael and his team have provided us throughout the entire process
My family and I would certainly recommend Semper Solaris to any of our family, friends and colleagues Michael is honest, sincere and can be depended on Our system was professionally installed and up and running the first week of January and is operating flawlessly No surprises were entertained and their workmanship is greatly appreciated

Where to begin? I will keep it simple After researching several companies, we went with Semper Solaris They talked a good game, and sure know how to present themselves to get you behind their mission statementWell, what should have been a job accomplished in no more than visits in less than a month took visits and several months It started with the system not producing as promised This resulted in a crew coming out and replacing some faulty equipment In so doing, they found workmanship errors from the first crew they had to repair Well, withotu boring you, I would find an error (inverter computer not communicating, all panels not registering, weather tight junction boxes NOT being weather tight) and each time a crew came out, they also found other errors from prior repair teams that I had been unaware of After visits over multiple months, the system finally seems to be working right NOW, we get to management At one point upper management was fully admitting the errors were all due to poor communication and poor management at a branch level and that I was a "victim" in this "learning process" Supposedly the entire local maagement team that handled my case was replaced However, shortly after this point, corporate management essentially did a telling me that the errors were all 'cosmetic' only, the system worked as designed since the day it was turned on, and that basically I shouldbe happy that after paying them upfront I should be happy they FINALLY figured it out and got it working right When I pointed out that the system most surely had NOT operated to specs the day it was turned on and took several visits to function at full cpacity, their answer was 'We are not responsible for that as it was the parts supplied to us by our vendor that failed' WHAT?? I, as a consumer, did not choose this vendor or parts! YOU did I paid you for the project, you installed the parts, and you are who came out when the failed to function I paid you, Semper Solaris, you ARE responsible to the consumer for the failing of your contracted vendors parts Well, at least my neighbors saw with their own eyes the fiasco of working with Semper Solaris, and are steering away from working with them The only reason I gave stars instead of is beacuse at least now the system is finally working right, but what a long and tiring road to get here Steer clear unless you enjoy long painful projects and needing to ride a company to the very end to make sure they do what they say they will

Semper Solaris installed kw of ground ground mounted power on our slope The company was highly professional and Laura ***, Execuitive Customer Care representative was extremely responsive and professional and acted quickly to find out information or resolve any issues

I just got additional solar added to my home by Semper Solaris The whole process from beginning to end was an easy positive experience There was never any hard sell and always took time to answer my questions, and I had a lot The installation was done on time and was very professionally done I am extremely picky and I had no complaints They even went to the local hardware store to match my house color without me asking and painted any exposed conduit You can tell it was professional job If I ever had any questions the project manager responded immediately When we got final approval from the electrical company we were on vacation Our rep even came out to test and turn on our system for us so that we could get the benefit of solar while we were gone!

We got our solar done about two months ago and love it! The sales Rep (Dustin W*** ) was great to work withNo BS talk and was very friendly and no pressureHe spent time listening to our concerns about going solar and addressed themHe gave us great detailed info about the products and the pro's and con's about solarHe didn't bash other products, but just assured us that Semper uses the best product on the marketSigned that day with Semper
The point of contact person that contacted us the next day to get the project started was Jenny D*She was a fantastic person and good at her jobShe kept us informed step by step about how the project would go and answered any questions we hadShe made us feel very comfortable with the whole process and was very professional and friendly
The install crew was a great bunch of guysSet up a time and they were there right on timeGot the job done fast, clean and ran the conduit piping the way I wanted.They even painted it to match the roof and the house!! Brian P***, Jared G***, Caro S*** and Miguel C*** were a stellar crew
Thanks again to the Semper team for the great experience and professionalismI would highly recommend Semper to friends and family from now on
***& *** ***

Th entire experience with the Semper Solaris Team was amazing The first contact was with Mark A*** and we was extremely knowledgeable and did not over promise the results in order to secure a sale We received exactly what we discussed and in a timeline consistent with or expectations
Mark handed us of to Veronica Mosqueda who ushered us through the planning and execution of the installation phase with easeShe was very professional and prompt to answer our questions and guide us through the next steps Trevor was our program manager and was flawless
The installation team was led by Reuben and they were prompt , professional and demonstrated the system immediately after the installation was complete
You will not go wrong conducting business with this team of professionals

We were looking to get a solar system installed for our new home because, quite frankly, we were fed up with these massive SDGE bills Needless to say, it was a daunting task to sift through all of these different solar contractors to see who was the best contractor Best to me is defined as a contractor that is going to do quality work on my home, use great materials and be competitively priced I’m a serial researcher…meaning I don’t pull the trigger on anything until I do a TON of research and learn as much as I can Let me just save you the hours and hours of time by offering two pieces of advice:
1) Call Semper Solaris
2) Ask to meet with Roland Obana
Roland is very knowledgeable and answered every question I could throw his way (from how the system would be installed, what it would look like, how much money I would really save, warranty info, etc) He really made us feel comfortable about this investment Thereafter, Semper Solaris did their job and executed just like Roland promised Things don’t always go this smoothly with other contractors but these guys are the leaders of solar in San Diego for a reason Follow my advice and don’t look back I’m saving a TON of money now!

My husband and I did a lot of research on solar companies before making the jump to purchasing solar We chose Semper Solaris for the panels they use and for the system technology
The process took much longer than we expected because there are so many departments/people involvedI spoke with at least four different people on some days when trying to resolve some of the issues and have our questions answeredI would have liked more continuity
Our customer service rep was John Renteria and I was very thankful for his service in resolving some issues that came up We are happy with the system installed and when we did finally get in touch with the correct people they were courteous
Several things didn't go right but John did everything in his power to make things right and so his service is what makes me give this company a star review

I had shopped or different solar companies and ended up using Semper Solaris My sales representative, Genevieve Johnson, made everything very easy to understand from the start and gave me that no BS feeling Very happy with the process from start to finish

It's another glorious San Diego day, so I should be delighted with my wise decision to invest in solar Unfortunately, that $17,array of panels on my roof is a sad testament to poor quality and pathetic customer service
I wrote a glowing review of Semper Solaris when we had our panels installed in but our experience since then has been extremely disappointingWe've had our system for just under three years, and it's now crashed six times
After five service calls Semper Solaris determined the problem was with the inverter, so they installed a different model One month later, our system is down again and Semper Solaris admits they don't know how to fix the problemSemper Solaris has now informed us that we need to deal with the manufacturer in order to resolve the problem WHAT??? Semper Solaris sold this system and THEY should make it right
Additionally, Semper Solaris has now charged us $for installation of the replacement inverter When the inverter was installed over a month ago there was no mention of any charge to us It is such a "coincidence" this bill was sent the day after our review was posted on Yelp Hmmm
We've tried to contact Semper Solaris to resolve this issue, but our calls have not been returned
Semper Solaris proudly advertises itself as a "Local and Veteran Owned Solar Company", but if you're looking for honesty and integrity, you won't find it with them

I appreciate the professionalism, courtesy and the patience of Anela ***, my sales consultantWe've been working together since and I've interviewed many companies and was put off by the hard sale tactics from some of the other companies that I interviewedAnela was willing to go the extra mile and came over to my home many times to meet with me and discuss my optionsI am sold on the panel and roof warranties that Semper has to offerI like the product that they give and different loan optionsI would highly recommend Anela and Semper Solaris :)

Semper Solaris is the best, from start to finish! Salesman: ChaseNo-pressure sales or negotiating because their prices are already the lowestThey assign a project manager who keeps you informed at every stageTwenty panels installed in less than a day; I didn’t even have to be homeThey coordinate with city permits and SDG&E (utility) to make the project seamlessGet multiple bids if you like, but you’ll end up going with Semper Solaris

Not quite a year before I got my system from Semper Solaris, I had gotten a quote from a Pretty Darn Rotten & Slimey competitor, supposedly something like "best ever, never before, never again" limited time pricing Semper beat that price by nearly $2k, and IMHO, with better panels, if you look at *** panel degradation warranty, vs ***, and nearly all other firms After dealing with that other company's baloney sandwiches I learned I need to read between advertising/sales pitch lines better, a "best" offer or effort for one company can still be pretty pathetic in comparison to real class operations like SemperNever before never again limited time pricing is still technically true even if prices keep going down, it's never going to be that high again! I've gotten so good at reading through the BS, I can create my own"Every other quote I got beat that BS advertiser's price! (nevermind that I only got one other quote, although even that's still not a good sign, either I'm extremely lucky, or their "best" price is not hard to beat) Just take your time, do your own research to your satisfaction, shop around (don't believe the hype "we're the best" "lowest prices", blah blah blah, at least get 1! other quote) and don't let anyone rush you, if they really want your business you should be able to get an equal or better deal a week or month laterSemper was a little slow getting final permitting done and permission to operate from the utility, but rather than passing blame and making excuses, they cut the balance due on my system to cover the utility bill for the ~months extra! Now that's customer service! When I look at the current Revdex.com profiles, 100+ positive reviews & complaints for Semper, vs positive reviews and complaints for that competitor, I realized that ultimately I made the right choice Both are supposedly Revdex.com A+ but when you look closer, it's like day and night, dark and light, wrong and right

I’ve been thinking about solar for a while now and finally had my first meeting with a Semper Solaris representativeMark I*** was very professionalHe was punctual and very knowledgeable about the productHe answered all of our questions and I felt very good about the whole experience and productThey are at the top of my list!!!
