On the strength of the recommendations from coworkers, I only got a single quote for solar: from Sameer and Sunvault. Sameer and team were great to work with.Specific highlights: Sameer figured out a path forward even though my house had very limited wallspace to use. The electrician went the extra mile and painted the conduits around the installation to match the house They were fast - done in about two weeks, including a whole new roof And it passed the father-in-law inspection! My father-in-law can quote the NEC (National Electrical Code) by heart and is doing his own DIY solar. He was impressed with how clean the installation was (conduits, routing), the extra grounding rods put in, and the fact that the electrician went ahead and grounded the water heater (which hadn't been grounded before).The one caveat I would call out is that they are solar installers, they're not general contractors. So when I tried to get them to do more (Can't you fix the other subpanel? Can't you fix the gutter?), they carefully pushed back. Sameer was nice enough to bend a little bit, though.

SunVault installed a complete solar+battery backup system for my house. They did a very solid job, and the pricing was competitive. The project was done in only 6 weeks including permits.I got quotes from multiple installers, and working with Sameer was so much better compared to large installers. First, you work with an engineer not a salesperson. He can go into details, explain, educate. I had a lot of questions, and Sameer was always patient and responsive. Second, Sameer worked with me to find the best configuration for my needs, and was much more flexible compared to some large vendors with only a few fixed configurations. He was the only one who could install the system from Enphase that I wanted.Separately want to call out solid work from the electrician. Very clean installation.Would recommend SunVault to everyone.

We had a great experience working with SunVault solar for our solar installation of a 7.5KW system. The quote was competitive. From the time I signed the contract, SunVault took care of City permits, inspections, Panel upgrade to 200A, solar installation and final inspections. The installation was clean and seamless. The company even took care of stucco repair and final permit with PG&E to enable Net metering. I have been using solar for 1 month now and am very happy with the whole experience. The net energy generated is matching the simulation model provided earlier. I would highly recommend shopping around first then contact Sameer to let him do his Magic!!! Very reliable, dependable and accountable service. Give the SunVault Solar a shot, you won't regret it.

I had a complex project of a roof which had existing solar and some roof work also needed. Sameer and his team helped with providing me a complete work estimate along with roof repair that was needed. His solar panels were of much better quality and higher power than what I had earlier. They were able to install the panels and all the equipment based on how I asked them to with them all on one side of the house and the wiring and conduits to the way that looked more aesthetic to me. Their team made sure everything was done per Fremont's permit standards which were very strict and had to go through multiple approvals which they took care of with the city along with structural analysis which was a bit abnormal. At the end they were the only company who was able to get it done in the shortest time possible with everything running quickly within 2 months from start to finish. I have seen some of my neighbors who have been waiting for solar for the past 6 months and work is still in the permit stage.Their workmanship and end result was very clean and similar to any other larger good installers. I have gotten installs done by Tesla and one other solar vendor. I would recommend SunVault to anyone who is interested in getting Solar done especially if you have custom needs.

My experience with SunVault has been nothing but excellent. I've talked to several solar companies, but only SunVault showed the professionalism and commitment I was hoping for so I went with their offer. I'm very happy with my choice, everything worked as smoothly as promised. The owner, Sameer, send out a crew to make sure we can use the existing conduit to the garage and avoid digging - he even had his team put the cable through already to avoid any surprise. The actual installation was done very fast and professionally. The electrical work is top notch and the system has been operating flawlessly for over a month now. I highly recommend SunVault - Sameer is very responsive and knowledgeable and makes sure the work is done efficiently and at high quality.

My home now has a Solar with Batteries power system installed by SunVault, and I couldn't be happier. Every stage, from the first consultation to the final installation, was managed with skill and professionalism. Sameer assisted me in selecting the ideal solar system for my requirements and thoroughly discussed each choice. The staff arrived on schedule, worked quickly, and kept the workstation tidy throughout the installation, which went smoothly. I had excellent customer service from start to finish, with timely answers to my inquiries and consistent progress reports. My electricity expenditures have greatly decreased, and the solar system has been helping sustainability with its flawless performance. SunVault makes the investment worthwhile with their reasonable pricing and helpful financing choices. Overall, SunVault went above and beyond what I had anticipated.

Did a combination of both roofing and solar with Sameer/Sunvault and overall had a great experience, and would highly recommend. Installers/workers were professional and the work was very clean. I compared across companies on Energysage, local installers, etc and landed on Sunvault and have no regrets - pricing was competitive and reasonable. Everything was clear, communication was effective, and unlike other solar companies there's no sales team so you don't get pushy sales people trying to upsell/pester you to sign! You get to work directly with Sameer. I had a smaller system (5.3kW, 13 panels, 3 5P backup) and everything is working great.
