Dirk and his company exceeded all of my expectations. The price was phenomenal, the installation was flawless, and the system operates better that expected. We used to pay between $200-$300 per month on electricity. Our bill is now anywhere from $0-$10. Do you have an older rock or "torch down" roof on your house and want a more permanent solution?

San Diego Solar installed solar panels on my residence. The service was fantastic. The owner Dirk first determined how many panels I needed by reviewing my past electric bills. He then provided a simple straightforward quote (that ended up being the lowest I received). He helped with the rebates and answered all of my questions even after the install. His crew was professional, efficient, clean, and friendly. He did a great job explaining the system to me. Overall, I had a wonderful experience with San Diego Solar, plus Dirk is a genuine, good guy.
