SolarGem

Joe and his crew did a great job installing my solar panels from Go Green Solar. I appreciate the quality work and Fern was great to work with, too. They are very capable of solving unique problems, which my house had many, and getting things done in a very timely manner. Highly recommended.

After looking at several solar contractors, I selected SolarGem and am very happy about my decision. SolarGem clearly stated what they would do during our initial consultation and later in writing via the detailed proposal. My original contact with the owner, Joe Johnson, was very helpful as he was able to provide me with answers to all my questions.
The pricing was right in line with other companies I looked at and the equipment they offered was top quality US made panels.
The crew showed up on time each day and finished the job on time to my complete satisfaction. They were very professional and left my house clean at the end of each shift. Joe showed up each day to check on the project and provided me with progress reports so I knew what was going on throughout the process.
SolarGem did everything they claimed they would do and did it in a timely fashion. My system is up and running and my meter is spinning backwards. I couldn’t be happier!

Joe and his team from SolarGem did a great job on our solar install. I began my research into solar back in Aug 2015, after finding out what I exactly wanted and what kind of system I wanted to build I called around for a few quotes. Joe from SolarGem being one of the 6 quotes I got.
While I didn’t buy my equipment from Joe, they did the install on my system. From beginning to end, Joe and his team were very professional. We started our install on a Monday and Thursday, the system was up. By Friday, everything has wrapped up and inspection was complete waiting for SCE to give us the OK to operate.
We also had SolarGem upgrade our service panel since our original one didn’t meet the min requirement for solar and Joe gave us a very reasonable price for the upgrade. They also did everything to our discussed contract and at the end of the day, we were very satisfied with the job Joe and his team did.
On a last note, one of the great thing that Joe and his team does that we appreciated very much was the daily updates. Since I was at work for the most of this installation. Joe called me every day after his team left to give me an update on what has happened and what to expect next. This we valued a lot since knowing what is going on and to expect goes a long way in customer service.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Joe to anyone looking to install Solar. Joe also gave me some excellent advance along the way which help in the build of our system.
We are roughly 20 days into our system going live with SCE and I have been keeping an eye on our daily usage. As of right now, we are at a net negative on our kWH and paying nothing for electricity.
As time goes on, I will update the review on how our system is performing, but as of right now we are satisfied customers.

It is now one year after installation. There have been no problems whatsoever with the system. Joe designed it to give a net electric bill of zero. We are going to owe Edison about $ 50 for the YEAR! That’s awfully close to zero. I looked at daily usage. The system generates enough energy even on the shortest day of the year on sunny days to cover the entire 24 hour period. Of course it also depends on the weather, the more cloudy days, the less your system generates. If you’re in the market for solar, read the other reviews and then give Joe a call. You have nothing to lose and lots to gain.

Joe and Ben, of SolarGem, answered every question I had about every aspect of the process. They took care of everything, Permits, financing, paper work, dealing with Edison, everything! I had 6 other companies give me estimates for solar installation. SolarGem installed a more efficient system with better panels and the same warranty for THOUSANDS less. But even more importantly, They have outstanding customer service and pay attention to detail. I would highly recommend SolarGem. I have already referred 2 of my friends to Joe and Ben, of SolarGem.
