I had a solar array installed by a GC which subcontracted Cain several years ago. Recently, I had a new roof installed, so I called Cain to have them come do a review and ensure proper reinstall. I spoke with Stanley. After confirming the original install via my name and address. I asked if they'd be willing to come back to review and Stanley immediately got defensive and said "only way I'd do anything is to pull everything back off the roof. Then rerun all brackets back into trusses". I just had a new roof installed. I don't need additional Penitration that then voids my roof warranty... Stanley said "I'm busy, we're done here." Then hung up on me. Maybe he is having a bad day, and I'll find someone else. Simply made the call because they were the original installer. Clearly they don't need additional work. Try someone else is my advice to you.
Description of Work: Review of solar array for functionality.

Stanley told my husband on Monday that he would have someone out Friday to put them up. No one showed up. My husband waited all day, called the office and left messages for Stanley, and even tried Stanley's cell. Today he called Stanley to find out what was up and all Stanley could do was give excuses. Come to find out that he was out of town. He actually told my husband how could he remember what he said to one person on a Monday when he talks to 50 + people a day. Very unprofessional. When my husband got tired of the attitude he was given he told him he would just go with another company Stanley basically told him go with another company as if he didn't care. If your going to tell someone your going to do a job why don't you write it down so you don't have to remember. Or if you know your going out of town don't tell someone you will do a job. Also when your the one to blame for a mistake its not a good idea to try and blame the person who is trying to pay you for a job they want done.
Description of Work: Needed a few ceiling fans put up.

Cain was the subcontractor for a residential solar project that I bought through Microgrid Energy. I was quite impressed with Cain's punctuality and professionalism. Although my roof is over 40 feet off the ground, the crew from Cain installed everything in two days. In addition, the Cain workers cleaned up everything when they finished work on both days. I would use them again.
Description of Work: Installed a 5.43 kW solar system consisting of 21 panels and inverters.

Stanley responded quickly to my request and was willing to update the breakers in my electrical panel when the other electricians would only replace the whole unit. He was very understanding that we were in the process of selling the home and did not want to invest more money than necessary. He was very professional and went over the options with us. We were able to schedule service within a couple days of meeting him for an in-home estimate. The electrician that arrived for the service call was also very professional and nice. We would highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Replaced 3 circuit breakers in electrical panel and added Romex in 3 areas of the laundry room in a 50+ year old house.

It took them 2 days to finish the installation. The workers and staff were all very informative and efficient. I also thought they were very honest people. The price seemed to be right on compared to other companies.
Description of Work: I had them install a generator for my 1600 square foot home.
