electrician, solar panels
+ 0 moreGreat install by qualified staff. Great follow up to fine tune the system to meet my needs. I am overall net zero including charging my EV. Highly recommend solar panels for Tacoma area and especially if you have TPU as service provider as they bank the excess hours produced in summer to use in the winter months.
Description of Work: installation of Generac power cell battery back up system with automatic transfer switch for critical loads panel 12 kWh of storage and many more projects, including wiring for a new addition, running a car charger, circuit, and running a dedicated circuit to fireplace.

solar panels
+ -1 moreJeff & his team at First Choice have been great! From the first visit through all of the work done, they have been professional and very easy to work with. While Generac seemed to have some "teething" issues with new equipment and software, First Choice was always right with us to make it work. We're going to be adding additional battery capacity and solar panels, and First Choice will be the ones to do that. I'm a real estate broker and I have already referred First Choice to several of my clients. Trust me, I don't do that lightly!
Description of Work: Install solar panels and battery storage with goal of running our entire house during power outages.

electrician, solar panels
+ 0 moreJeff, Tavius and rest of his team were so responsive and committed to the success of our solar project that I can’t imagine how it could have gone better. Jeff is a breath of fresh air when it comes to business practices; honest, forthright, knowledgeable and works so hard (24/7) that I worried that he might burn out. He never did.

Asked for a quote to install a tesla wall charger. They quoted me at nearly 1k. The going rate at the 5ime was 700 dollars however they were available sooner, so I went with them. Huge mistake. After using it for over a year I lost power to my main breaker. Called them up. Said it would be 250 if it was my fault free if it was there fault. Turns out the installed for a 50 amp charger installed of tesla's required 60 amp breaker. They are telling me its my fault because normal car chargers are 50 amp breakers. Now wont return my call. I would avoid these guys at all costs.

Jeffrey and his team were professional on the job and understanding with me as a customer. He had no problem rescheduling the job when it was needed. The company gave me the lowest bid of three altogether. Their phone system got right back to me with the request for payment.

+ -1 moreWe hired First Choice to install our whole house generator about a month ago. They provided excellent service from quote to finish. During the installation phase they also explained how the generator works and answered all questions we had. A few weeks after purchasing our generator we lost power for just over 8 hours. This was our first power loss after buying a generator. Our generator kicked in within a few seconds and worked great the entire time. If you’re thinking of buying a new whole house generator, give First Choice a call. I highly recommend them.

+ -1 moreI regret to pick this company to install my new electrical panel, EV charger and outdoor outlet. When the bid came it came with minimum information and I did not think much of it. My old electrical panel is twice as small but they cut the drywall to fix twice as large electric panel leaving me to fix it. Their employees stepped on my new peony and did not apologize for it even I pointed out. If I ask for information, they would point to the contract. Here are lessons to be learned: Ask for specific model#, if damage is done to your house, who will fix it? Is customer satisfaction absolutely guaranteed? Make sure they spell out details in the contract or good luck with asking later. The problem is the estimator showed up and talk smoothly to you to sign the contract. Then he is not around to supervise the work and hard to question or change anything. When I asked further questions, they were unhappy to answer. E.g. when I asked how to test if my EV charger works or not, he pointed to the blinking charger. Knowing what I know now I would pick someone who is more trustworthy to work with.

The employees were friendly and knowledgeable, showed up on time and cleaned up when finished. I got multiple bids and First Choice came back the fastest with the best price.

+ 0 moreThe team was amazing! From first walkthrough (and a couple of bid rewrites because I changed my mind) to completion, Jeff, Zach, John, Brandon and Jeremy were courteous, efficient, professional and flexible around some atypical sleeping hours. Jeff had great suggestions and he and Zach answered all of my questions, coming up with a good plan that was affordable. John, Brandon and Jeremy did the remodel lighting and electrical for the whole house in two days. They verified everything as they went, asked questions about my preferences during the process, and cleaned up completely. I am delighted with the results!
