California Builders - Solar Contractor

We decided to get three solar estimates for our home. The first I called requested me to get on my computer and showed me computer generated panels on my roof. They then asked for my social security number for insurance reasons if I wanted them to send a person out to our home. Very shady and pushy. The next company sent out a nice salesman who was somewhat knowledgeable, but their price ended up being very high. Our final estimate was with California Builders. David Cline was prompt on his arrival and extremely knowledgeable in helping us design our solar project. He was the only one to actually climb up on our roof and measure things out. That meant a lot to me being a retired contractor of thirty years. The permit and all contact with PG&E was handled in a very timely manner. I h

Dave Cline at California Builders did an amazing job for me with my residential solar panel project. He’s was very professional, and he handled the entire project for me, including obtaining my building permits. He insisted on doing all the research beforehand, to insure that I had enough solar exposure to adequately run my system. He wanted to make sure that the system he designed was one that I’d be happy with. His communication was great and his professional installation crew had my system installed and operating in one day. His price was half of what the “kids” going door-to-door tried to sell me. I highly recommend California Builders in Chico California. Mike Summerfield

I received many quotes for solar at my house in Paradise, and these guys came in with the lowest price by far. David was easy to work with and got the job done quickly. I highly recommend them. Get quotes from others, then talk to David. He's honest and can install at a lower cost because he doesn't pay sales people. Edit this is a follow up with pics of my PGE statement.

I was lucky to find California Builders, Chico after first tangling with a solar shyster that had good reviews. It’s a rare company that seems to care about the customer, as businesses use to be. And the owner, David Cline, always did what he said he would do in a timely fashion. Communications was excellent. He takes the weekends off, which I can’t fault. The panels, battery and compiler are top of the line. Don’t believe what I’ve said above? Research the equipment used and David’s credentials.

I called David for an estimate on a hotel solar project. He said that we only had one day left to apply to be grandfathered into the old PGE solar contract. This application typically takes weeks to put together but somehow David did it. Then the install went great and David worked with PGE on the interconnect. All in, David did a great job and our solar is working and pumping out the power. Thanks to you and your team!
