My family and I purchased an older home in Merced and quickly found out that electricity rates were sky high. We called APG Solar and Ron got back to me extremely quickly. He provided a very competitive quote for a solar system large enough to power all our needs. His team was able to upgrade our panel and install 30 solar panels in three days after we received all of the work permits. Their work was clean, professional, and timely. From start to finish APG proved why they are the best solar company to go with. I would highly recommend APG Solar.Service: General building construction

Jeff at APG solar was great to work with. He understood what we needed for our home and family, which made the process very easy. The company’s service was timely and very professional, I was shocked at how efficiently they installed my system. I’ve had solar for almost a year now and it’s worked perfectly. Jeff has also checked in with us months after the system was installed to make sure everything was working properly. My only regret is not calling APG sooner.

This is my second review of APG, but this time from the view of a repeat customer. We had our solar system installed by APG 10 years ago and it has performed wonderfully for us, but as our electrical needs have changed (charging an electric car at home and adult kids staying with us with their children) our yearly true up has gone from next to nothing when it was first installed to close to $1000 last year. We were replacing and repairing our roof and had contracted with APG to take off our system and reinstall, and decided to add three panels to the present configuration as well as upgrade our inverter. Every step of the way APG was there to discuss best options, the new realities of home solar with our electricity provider, scheduling with our roofer, installation and instructing me on how to monitor our new inverter. In particular Coleby went beyond expectations in treating us well. From keeping us constantly informed on pricing quotes and what would work or not, to insuring the installation went smoothly and we knew the how and when, down to following up to check on our satisfaction, he was vigilant and so knowledgeable. I'm happy to say our true up is projected to be $0 now and our installation is even better than before. And it's worth mentioning that they are local with many ties to our community, so that's another plus for them. I'm very pleased to recommend APG to anyone considering any type of solar work for business or home.

Great Solar Company easy to deal with and helped keeping the cost down in everyway possible. I definitely recommend for any repairs and installations needed. Way to go APG 👊

Process was great, almost like they weren't even here. Installers were professional, courteous, and even helped us get the cat down from the attic. Alfonso Cervantes helped me with the process, and I have to say APG Solar is a great company to work with. I recommend you go through them.

The very best solar company to go with. The install team was very friendly and professional. Install was quick and easy with no hiccups. There was constant communication if I had any questions and I am 100% satisfied. Go with APG solar!

High praise for APG Solar! For years, my parents were dealing with interconnection issues that many other companies offered to help with but ended up not following through. Coleby was very upfront with the challenges we would face but still offered his services and made sure everything possible was done to help my parents’ system get connected to the grid. He was thorough in explaining every step and was available at a moment’s notice. I can’t thank Coleby and the team at APG Solar enough for their commitment to resolving our issue. They truly know what customer service is about. Thank you!

When I started my search for solar, it came with a couple of unexpected surprises and costs. I started out with the typical searches on the internet and received dozens of calls and emails wanting to sell me solar. Most of them were southern California companies or even out of state where I discovered would sub- contract out to regional companies.During the home visit from one of the solar salesmen, it was brought to my attention that my HVAC system was aging and not properly functioning correctly that directly caused my energy costs to go up. This then affects how many solar panels that my system will be to avoid any true ups. On top of that it was also brought to my attention that my attic insulation was inadequate and that would need to be addressed in the near future.So, on top of solar I would need a new HVAC system and insulation, this project just turned into something that I thought was financially unattainable.APG Solar was the last of the companies to give me a quote due to the fact that I thought a bigger company would be a better choice due to the resources it has. The fact of the matter is, all solar companies will sell you on their preferred panel, or inverter or say they have the best finance companies in the market. It just comes down to doing your own research and finding the best for your home and finances.Darren Smith, the salesman for APG came by my house. I was honestly thinking of pulling the project due to the estimate quotes I had already received and that there was no way APG could match, let alone beat those quotes.It wasn’t until I gave all this information to Darren and expressed by concerns about the cost that I fully understood the value of working with local companies and the resources they have at their disposal. By the end of the meeting, I had local HVAC company scheduled for a visit and an insulation company that gave me a quote estimate.When all said and done, I got my solar, insulation, and a whole-house fan in a package deal where I was able to get the federal tax rebate on. The HVAC system needed to be completely replaced, I was able to get an amazing deal that literally cost half the price of other HVAC quotes I received, all by going with APG Solar.Installation was prompt on all parts, from start to finish. Everything was completed within 3 weeks. Finalizing all the paperwork with PG&E and building permits only added another 2 weeks.My recommendation is to do your own research and evaluate each company. Be open-minded and look at smaller companies that can offer you better deals. APG Solar was by far the best company for me and my situation. Darren is very helpful and stays in constant communication throughout the whole process even after everything is signed off to see if I have any questions or concerns.

We recently had solar installed. The installers did a great job. I worked with Ron who was very nice and informative. He was patient with me as I was trying to make up my mind. He kept me up to date on the process as it went along. I'm happy that we went with a local company and had Ron to guide us along the way.

Great customer service! They explained every step of the process and we’re availed to answer questions all along the way. Very nice and professional team. They went out of their way to make sure we were satisfied and the solar system was up and running. I would recommend them to all my friends.

APG Solar just installed a system at my home. From the very beginning they were very professional. They requested information about power consumption and they took measurements of solar resource availability and shading. They suggested a couple of alternatives and provided cost and performance predictions. They also provided the estimated timing of completion of the project. During the installation, there were a few issues that had not been anticipated, but they took the time to resolve each one of them. They completed the installation and got the approval of the system on time and before the end of the year, so that I could take advantage of the 30% tax credit, as we had agreed. Overall, it was a pleasure doing business with APG Solar, and if I had to do it again, I would not hesitate doing business with them.

APG Solar has been the solar company that I have recommended since I learned to know them some years ago. They completed a system on my own property back about 5 years ago which has performed beautifully. I now am using them to install additional panels to my current system. They are professional, fair, and honest. I highly recommend them for all your solar needs. Darren was the salesman that I used and he led me through each step of the process so I understood each and every phase.

APG installed our Solar this October 2019. We are very pleased with their services. The Sales Representative Alfonso Cervantes was very friendly. He’s very easy to talk to. He answered all our questions and a very very honest person. Solar was a new thing to us but Alonso took his time and making sure we understood it before we sign anything ( which, we appreciated that very much). When he didn’t know the answer (s) or was not sure of it, he would get back to us In a short time. We like it that they are local.

I couldn’t have made a better choice than going with APG Solar! Excellent customer service and knowledge about my solar needs. Thank you to Darren and the APG crew for making the process nice and smooth. Also purchased a whole house fan which has been a blessing in the super hot months of the California heat! If you need solar these are the guys to use! Keep up the good work fellas!

After a lot of research and getting a couple of quotes with several area solar energy business we decided to go with APG Solar. Darren Smith explained the who, what, where, when, why and how to our level of understanding(which is pre-k when it comes to tech stuff). I can still reach out after several months of having our system installed(which by the way we are very happy with)and he will still answer any of my questions. Thank you and your team for stepping up to the service. Bottom line, contact Darren if you are interested in learning more about going solar.

I was in the market for solar energy. I had done some research and gotten 4 quotes from different solar companies. The quotes were way over my budget. Until I found APG solar. APG solar were friendly and honest. Darren answered all my questions and informed me of some misinformation from the other solar companies. There quote was a lot more affordable then the other 4 solar companies I had talk to. There installer team were amazing. They found a better way to install the system then we had talk about. The project was up and running ahead of schedule. Everything from the beginning to the end went smoothly. Thank you guys I love my system.

From the very first meeting with Alfonso to the completion of the solar project with the "okay" from the City, APG Solar was a pleasure to do business with. Friendly, professional, patient with questions and concerns regarding solar were words that I use when people asked me about my experience. The workers were always on time ready to work with smiles. My system has been up and running since May. I couldn't be happier. Thank you, Alfonso, Chris, Ryan and all the rest of you that worked on this project.

We are on an acre with a well, lots of landscaping, with a pool and a family that likes to stay cool during the hot Valley summers. Our $600 summer PG&E bills are a thing of the past. We've had the panels for almost two years and could not be happier. David Daniels did an awesome job explaining the options and Brent Jerner and his crew did a professional installation. With the tax credit I figure the whole thing is paid for in five years or less.

I called APG for information about a lease for solar panels and was so appreciative of the information I received. Even though I didn't purchase panels from them their receptionist that answered the phone was so nice and caring answering questions for me until someone could call me back. Darren called me back the same day and spent time listening to me not only answering my questions but also giving me sound advice for my situation. He was professional, patient, and didn't try to sell me on something I did not need. It was like an old school way of doing things and that's was missing nowadays! Thank you Darren!

I hear that APG is an outstanding company and they may very well be when it comes to installation and maintenance of solar panels. However, I only hired them to wash my dirty solar panels that I had installed in 2015 and have had cleaning done every year except this last one. They came out on time which was appreciated but what they did next kind of left me a little stumped . . . . They used a garage push broom and water only to clean the panels.I have had these panels washed twice before by different solar panel cleaning companies (out of Modesto and Fresno area's) and have always had the panel washed with a soft brush and squeeged off to dry. They would also use a cleaning chemical as well thus not leaving any dirt or other residue on the panels. With this job, and after I had waited for the panels to dry, were streakes of dirt and some places where they did not even get to.The others charged about the same; under $100.00. But seeing that this company was local I thought I would keep the business in town.Guess I'll have to go back to Solar Maids if I want a professional cleaning next time!!!NOTE: Received a call from APG this date and time and discussed my review with them. They explained that the service they provided (ie, solar panel cleaning) is usually for those customers who have had panels installed by them. They offered to come back or to waive the fee that I was charged and seeing that I would have to hire somebody else decided to accept their offer of the fee waiver.Nothing better than honest people striving to do an honest days work. Kudos tro them and their team!

The Good: We took a 500 to 800 electric bill down to about 2 dollars a month. Being a local company, they are sensitive to the reputation they have locally.Could be better: It did take a few months to work out the issues with the web connect issues encountered. We were able to work it out. Be prepared and understand they will stand behind their work, but a solar system is likely to go through a process at the beginning with hiccups. You will need to think long term regarding ironing out the wrinkles of the initial setup. I will keep this review updated to let folks know how it is going.
