I wouldn't buy anywhere else

I finally decided to look at solar for my house. I have used Costco for over 25 years. Grape Solar is listed as a company that works with you in determining the best solar based on how much electricity your house uses. I contacted Grape Solar directly. They are located in Eugene Oregon and are rated as one of the best solar companies from reviews. Karen Sonntag was my solar rep. From the beginning, we talked about my electrical usage, she pulled up a map of my house and was pleased in the way our roof was situated which means good solar optimization. Karen and I had 3-4 phone calls talking about my needs. She was always available and very professional. When I decided to make the purchase, Karen guided me through the purchase on Costco.com. My only other concern was getting it installed. Where I live, east of Los Angeles, Karen mentioned that American Solar Power has been retained by prior customers for their install. I decided to get a quote from them as they were local to my area. I contacted Steven Roseborough of American Solar Power and explained my project. He and Karen from Grape Solar shared the designs and needs back and forth to each other to ensure everything was completed as I expected it to be. I received and engineering drawing from Steve, I approved it and they were able to start once the plans were approved by my city's building and planning department. I was home when Steve sent his crew out to install the 20 panels. They were on time, courteous, maintained social distancing with me and my wife and completed the project in one full day. Most important? They left no trace. No empty boxes, wiring, dirt, nothing. An absolute great solar company. I can't say enough positive things about Karen Sonntag from Grape Solar and Steve Roseborough From American Solar Power. This project was so seamless, I'm still wondering how I got so lucky. I highly recommend Grape Solar if you are in the market to lower your electric bills. If you live in California, especially Southern California, American Solar Power is hands down the best installer.
