Description of Work: We were seeking estimates on installing solar and seeking to find out if it made economic sense to move forward with solar. They told us that we did not use enough electricity at present for it to be economically feasible. They said they would move forward and install solar if we wanted to but they did not recommend It. If we did move forward I would choose Baker. They are a very honest company.

Description of Work: Estimated, designed, procured, and installed 5KW PV solar system on roof. Turnkey solution and extremely happy with result. Have already recommended to other contacts and would definitely use again. Punctuality rated at B because contract was signed on Dec 2 and site survey was conducted ~15 Dec, but actual design work did not begin until late Jan/early Feb. Final system energize will not take place until end of May or early April. Still, very happy overall.

Description of Work: Baker installed a purchased solar electric system on our roof. They were very professional and courteous, the actual installation went very quickly. They cleaned up very well. Everything was explained thoroughly in a manner that we could understand. There was one problem within the first month and they fixed it promptly. The price seemed a little higher than others, but I think it was worth it.

Description of Work: Baker Electric installed solar service for our whole house electricity. Installation was very professional & on time. It took over a month and multiple calls, however, to get a simple manufacturer's tax credit certification so that we can apply for our tax credit for the installation.

Description of Work: Installed 7.75 Kilowatt roof-top photovoltaic solar power system. |Their price was very competitive, their sales and installations personnel were very professional and knowledgeable. All work was performed on time and customer support was superior.They followed up after the system was installed, and assisted with getting tax info and CA Solar Initiative rebate. | Recently got my SDG&E total annual bill for only $277.With an above average warm year and the A/C running overtime all summer, the system has already proved its worth. Couldn't be more satisfied.

Description of Work: The purpose of the service call was to ensure that the system was working efficiently, approximately 5 weeks after the initial hook-up (Jan 1). It was. The technician walked me through the ways to monitor the system's performance. There have been no further service needs since then. My wife and I are extremely happy with the system's performance and the energy saved.

Description of Work: Installed solar panels on a lease. All went well. Still in 1st year of operation, so final determination of savings is not known yet, but we expect an overall savings. Hiring Baker Solar Electric has been a positive experience to date.

Description of Work: Baker Electric Solar installed a rooftop solar array on our home in Oct. 2013. We chose them as our installer because of the company's good reputation plus Baker offered the most efficient solar panels available at that time. The sales presentation was thorough and easy to understand. We decided to lease the system vs. buying it because of the good terms that Baker Electric Solar offered. The entire experience was a good one from the initial presentation through the permitting and installation. Baker employees kept us informed through each stage of the process. It was a thrill when our system finally went online about 4 months after the initial consultation. We have had good electrical production from the system and are enjoying considerable cost savings! We do recommend Baker Electrical Solar.

Description of Work: Installed solar system and processed lease and SDG&E Application. Install was very good, lease process was poor and different from my neighbor's also done by Baker, lease and SDG&e process extremely slow. They had one employee in the office that should not have been allowed to deal with the public

Description of Work: We had an extensive analysis done at our home for using solar panels. The Baker representative prepared a complete binder of information, which was helpful. In the end, we decided not to use any solar panels because we just don't use enough electricity to make it worthwhile.

Description of Work: Baler Electric installed 28 solar panels on my roof. They came highly recommended by my neighbor. They were prompt, courteoous and brought along their own toilet facilities. There was no money exchanged due to the fact that I leased the panels from Sun Power and Baker Electric was their agent. Overall a very pleasant experience.
