I needed a new roof on my 1955 Orange County home and was thinking about solar. A friend recommended calling Palomar after I had a quote from another company. They not only gave me a better price they could do my roof and solar at the same time. Every part of the process was easy from the friendly sales reps to the guys that performed the work. First class all the way around...highly recommended!

I live in the Escondido area and have been deciding on whether I should invest in Solar, so I have been going to different companies to understand more in person because over the phone doesn’t help me. I was astonished walking into the business establishment from the get-go. I could hear what I assume is a woman in a high position repeatedly shushing and angrily chastising the receptionist. How awful! I debated leaving this review, but this incident definitely stopped me from supporting this business! She needs to at least be reprimanded! That is no way to talk to your workers (or people for that matter). Absolutely disgusting and she should be ashamed.

Palomar solar set up my panels and they are working great. They took care of us from start to finish. Good price and very happy with the results.

These guys are awesome, in my situation the roof is too old and would cause more headache than saving so not a good fit. They could have told me, "Look at these savings and don't worry about potential leaks" or "No it's easy to transfer a lease when you sell your house." (When I have found out from other home owners it's NOT) I talked with Bryce, super nice, very straightforward and put my interest in front of them making money. Rare to find, if you are looking into Solar at least give them a call.

Sales person called 2 days after my inquiry. (a sign they are too busy or not interested) Then Instead of asking what I needed he told me what he wanted to sell me. He insisted I needed a new roof without even looking at it. I believe in ad on sales but this guy was rude. Being in sales for 40 years and hired and trained hundreds of sales people I thought the goal was to fill the customers needs not the company’s needs. I was referred to Palomar by a friend but now I am very disappointed. I will not use them for any of my houses nor refer them.

I got several quotes for roof and Solar, Phil with Palomar was the best. No long sales pitch, and he handled everything. So glad we went with Palomar.

I called Palomar Roofing & Solar to get an estimate on a new roof. I also need to be working with a solar company (in the event of issues) and they were recommended by Enphase my solar monitoring company. The person who took my information said the scheduler would contact me. When I asked when, she said she didn’t know. That was 6 days ago, and I haven’t heard from anyone. Since I haven’t been given the common courtesy of a response, I am giving them 1 star. I hope you have better luck than I did. After all, isn’t part of doing business responding to potential customers?

Palomar Solar and Roofing came to our rescue with an excellent solar package along with repairing our roof leaks. They came out promptly to give us a quote on both to be performed by their companies that specialize in solar and roofing. Erik put together a package deal that was an excellent fit for us that included everything we needed all in one. The work began ahead of schedule and finished right on time as promised. it was a large project that ended in great success !We now have a state of the art solar system that is performing perfectly and no more leaky roof issues thanks to an excellent crew . They are masters in their trade. Give them a call today, you won't regret it.

Thanks so much for doing my roof and re-rack of my solar. The crew worked so hard and did a wonderful job. Pablito's team was great. Monalisa kept me informed of what was going on, so I knew I wasn't just a number. George was friendly and informative. I have recomended Palomar to anyone that brings it up.Thanks for hard workJohn and Denise TrappI recommend Palomar for anyone that needs solar installation or roofing.

Thanks Adam and the Palomar team. I just received our annual electricity bill "true-up" and the total cost of our electricity for the year was $45! We have a swimming pool with 3 pumps, and Palomar hit the mark with a perfectly sized system. Much appreciated!

Seven years ago, we were paying almost $1000 a month for our electricity from SDGE. Adam Rizzo, the owner at Palomar Solar, came out and installed solar panels on our property. We have never had a problem with the system, and year after year, since installation, we have received money back from SDGE. This last year it came to over $750! Our solar system has more than paid for itself over the past five years. Palomar Solar's staff and owner have always been just a phone call away to answer questions that have popped up over the years. Just today, Adam personally responded to my most recent question about the San Diego Community Power wanting to automatically enroll us with them. I cannot recommend Palomar Solar more highly! They are honest, friendly, dependable, and their service and equipment are the highest quality. They are there when you need them, and they keep their promises.

TL;DR: I love my solar. Experience with Palomar was outstanding. Adam, office staff, and crew were excellent. I wouldn’t have changed a thing. Don’t entertain those door-to-door guys; call Palomar.I'm not exaggerating when I say that everything about this experience was positive. From my first call to Palomar to the support after installation, the whole Palomar team has been attentive, courteous, informative, fun, competent, and patient. Adam was exceptional. Shortly after our first meeting, he sent me two proposals. He quickly responded to my numerous calls and emails over the next several months of me mulling over my options and concerns. His knowledge, professionalism, optimism, and attentiveness sold me on both solar and Palomar. (Before finding Palomar, I had spoken with three other companies. The interactions were so disappointing that I had almost given up on the idea.) Adam instilled confidence.Palomar quickly got my project going, and before long, the crew was at my house ready to install. The installation team was amazing. I’ve worked with countless contractors/teams over the years, and yet I have never seen a team like this. They were happy, smiling, and fun while being extremely competent and efficient. They knocked out 26 panels, all the conduit and the service panel, and all the touch-up paint in one day despite a late start due to rain. After they were done, my nit-picky brain noticed a couple aesthetic issues. Even though it was 4pm and they were packed up to leave, they didn’t hesitate to listen to my concerns and identify a fix. They quickly worked together to remedy the situation, and they did it with positive attitudes and the upmost concern for my happiness. Absolutely the best crew I’ve ever seen.Energizing the system took less time than I was quoted, and it went off without a hitch. Palomar has an excellent reputation with inspectors, so approval was quick.I’ve had the system for two months now. The panels look nice on my roof thanks to the design and quality of the panels, and the perfect workmanship of the installers. My system rocks. I went big and I’m glad I did. I can use as much energy as I want without worrying about a bill. No more $450 SDGE bills; instead, they’re negative.Don’t entertain those door-to-door guys, call Palomar. Palomar is everything that you could hope for and more. I couldn’t be happier.As an aside, and my response to frequently negative reviewers, if you want a positive experience with a company, be a positive consumer. Sometimes things go sideways no matter the effort and attitude, but more often, an optimistic attitude will go a long way. If you are reasonable with your expectations, and you give businesses a chance to address your concerns, you’ll find yourself writing a lot of positive reviews.

WE RECENTLY HAD A NEW SOLAR SYSTEM INSTALLED BY PALOMAR SOLAR AND ROOFING. WE HAD 5 BIDS AND PALOMAR SOLAR WAS THE ONLY COMPANY THAT TOOK THE TROUBLE TO MEASURE OUR ROOF AND DO A PROFESSIONAL PROPOSAL AND THEY WERE THE LOW BIDDER. I ALSO DID A LOT OF RESEARCH TO FIND A COMPANY THAT HAS A REPUTATION FOR OUTSTANDING WORK AND SUPPORT, WHICH IS WHAT WE GOT. WE HAD 40 PANELS INSTALLED AND IT TOOK 2 DAYS FOR THE INSTALLATION ON DAYS THAT WERE OVER 100 DEGREES. THE CREW SHOWED UP ON TIME AND THEY WERE POLITE, NEAT, PROFESSIONAL, AND FRIENDLY. I WANTED TO DO AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE WITH THIS WHOLE SOLAR INSTALLATION AND I DID VIRTUALLY NOTHING. THIS WAS THE TYPE OF INSTALLATION YOU DREAM ABOUT BUT RARELY RECEIVE. THEY KEPT US INFORMED EACH DAY AND WHEN THEY LEFT I COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING TO SHOW THEY HAD BEEN WORKING ON OUR ROOF AND PROPERTY.PALOMAR SOLAR ALSO MADE THE PROCESS OF TURNING ON THE SYSTEM WITH THE UTILITY VERY EASY, BECAUSE THEY DID EVERYTHING. YOU CAN TELL THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND HAVE MADE THE PROCESS OF TURNING ON AND MONITORING THE SYSTEM SO SIMPLE THAT EVEN AN 83 YEAR OLD MAN COULD FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. PALOMAR SOLAR ALSO ARRANGES FOR ENPHASE TO MONITOR THE SYSTEM WHICH HAS WORKED FLAWLESSLY FROM THE START AND I WOULD RECOMMEND ENPHASE TOO.
