"We did a total remodel of my husband's family home.   It took over six months.  Our next door neighbor is Andre Johnson who is starting up his own solar panel installation out of his home.  He has been in the business for  years, but felt now was the time for him to start his own business.  After we moved in, we talked to him about solar installation...we got some other bids, but his was still the best.  He and his son did the installation, then we called the city for the inspector to come out.
This is why I am writing this review.  With the total remodel, we had a lot of city inspections, and we knew how particular they are.  The inspector came out, went up on the roof for 10 or 15 minutes.  Then he told Andre he wanted to talk to us.  We thought...this can't be good.  On the contrary....the inspector wanted us to know what an outstanding job they did.  In fact, he said he had never seen such a perfect job.  He had been to two other homes for solar installation inspection prior to ours, and neither one of them passed.  He said they were done by well known, large local companies.  He said the larger companies sub-contract out the work, so you don't get the pride of ownership kind of work that we got.
Andre has five different licenses on his business card.  I did check his CA license....#958114...and he is in good standing with the state of California.  One of the other licenses was his federal contracting license, and another one was with the State of California as a disabled vet.
If you are looking for any kind of solar panel installation, PLEASE call Andre for a bid.  I really don't think you can find a better price, and I know you won't get a better job.

"It went very well. Everyone was very informative. They kept me up to date with the process and whenever I had a question, they were really prompt with their answers whether by email or phone. They were on time when they say they will begin work and the guys that installed my solar panel and inverters were very clean. I mentioned that I'm very worried about leaks because my son is very sensitive to mold and they made sure to seal everything very well n show us the work they've done and ask if we see anything that needs to be addressed. I was very pleased with the whole process. And it was easy, they took care of everything."

"My house always have an electric bill issue with the AC going all summer long and everything we used today being electronic. This issue caused me to start and look for a company that can lower my bills by installing a solar panel system or any other type of a solution. Since switching to nuclear power was frowned upon by my neighbors and the federal government, I decided solar panels would be worth a try. After looking and researching on several companies, I decided to meet and talk to the representative from Landmark construction and energy crew. Ezra and his staff over at Landmark Construction were great. Ezra walked me through the whole process and he was completely honest and accurate with the pricing and time schedule. The system that he recommended me was a 3.1 kW system with panels on the roof of the house. He had the time to tell me how will it go and what will be the final results after the system will be fully installed and working. I have a past experience work in the construction industry and I know competence and good workmanship, these guys know what they are doing and do it well. I was very satisfied with the work and with the system that they installed at my house. My utilities bills came down as Ezra said they will. I would recommend them to anyone considering solar power."

"The young guy who did the work was prompt and professional, but not well trained. He power washed my patio BEFORE blowing the leaves and sticks off my roof, so all the debris landed on my just cleaned patio, and he didn't follow up to clean it off.
He forgot to do the garage door and was all packed up when he asked me to inspect, so I just let it ride.

"I recently had my roof replaced by a team of professionals, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The team was efficient, professional, and easy to work with, and they kept me informed throughout the entire process. They were able to complete the project in a timely manner, and the cost of the service was reasonable. I would highly recommend this roofing service to anyone in need of roof repairs or replacement."

"Solar Shoppers was amazing to work with. I had a couple other companies come in and give estmates to include Costco. Solar Shoppers gave me more relevant information than any of those other companies combined so I could make an educated decision. When on the phone setting up the appointment I informed the person helping me that I just had a representative for the Costco backed company get upset with me because of all my questions. She said she would have an experienced representative come out so my questions could been answered and they were completely. I didn't have the roof space needed for the number of panels I needed, the Solar Shoppers rep asked about the patio if I thought of using it also. I wanted to replace the wood on the patio so the Solar Shoppers Rep had the installation postponed to give me as much time as needed to complete the repairs I wanted to do on my patio. cover. When I was done with the patio repairs I contacted Solar Shoppers and they were out within a couple days and completed the installation of the solar panels. The installers we're great, curtious and very professional. The electricians had to change out my entire fuse box and also we're very friendly and professional. The entire experience with Solar Shoppers was great, I am very happy with the entire process and experience. I would highly recommend them to all."

FAQs for solar panel installation projects in Smith River, CA

A single Tesla Powerwall provides backup power for essential home circuits for approximately one day during an outage. This duration varies significantly based on which appliances and systems you're powering. Critical loads like refrigeration, limited lighting, internet equipment, and a few outlets might draw two to five kWh daily. With 13.5 kWh of usable capacity, careful energy management is necessary for extended outages unless you have solar panels to recharge during daylight hours.

A Tesla Powerwall can power most residential air conditioners, as its 5.8 kW continuous output handles the three to four kW requirement of standard AC units. However, running air conditioning substantially increases energy consumption, potentially depleting a single Powerwall within several hours. For meaningful climate control during extended outages, multiple Powerwall units are recommended. Solar panel integration helps replenish the batteries during daylight hours, extending your cooling capabilities.

Tesla Powerwalls qualify for the federal Residential Clean Energy Credit, which offers a 30% tax credit through 2032, followed by 26% in 2033 and 23% in 2034. This represents a tax credit (direct reduction of tax liability) rather than a deduction. To qualify, the system must be charged primarily from renewable energy sources. Additionally, many states and utilities offer supplemental incentives that further reduce effective costs. Consult with a tax professional regarding your specific eligibility and filing requirements.

Unlike conventional generators that require fuel, maintenance, and produce noise and emissions, Tesla Powerwalls operate silently and automatically without ongoing fuel costs. While generators can run indefinitely with refueling, Powerwalls have capacity limitations unless paired with solar recharging. Traditional generators cost less initially but require regular maintenance, testing, and fuel storage. Powerwalls offer additional daily benefits through energy bill management and smart home integration features that generators cannot provide, making them multifunctional investments beyond emergency backup.

Tesla Powerwall systems require minimal ongoing maintenance compared to other backup power solutions. Unlike generators with moving components requiring regular servicing, Powerwalls function virtually without mechanical intervention. The manufacturer recommends keeping the unit's surroundings clean and ensuring proper ventilation. For systems paired with solar panels, periodic panel cleaning (costing between $295 and $625) helps maintain optimal charging efficiency. The system conducts automatic self-diagnostics and receives software updates remotely, with most potential issues identified and addressed through Tesla's monitoring capabilities.
