Calzona Solar reviews

Jeff H. had Kevin comb through his past electric bills and walk the roof and surrounding landscape before presenting a detailed plan. He ended up with a solar array plus a battery backup, and the crew finished the install quickly, neatly, and professionally. Kevin came back ahead of the city building inspector to make sure he was happy, and the system passed inspection without any issues. The pre-inspection check — verifying the work before the official inspection — is the detail that made the permit stage seamless and left him confident in the installation.

Jason R. hired the company to add a solar pool heater and experienced a hands-on, start-to-finish process from the initial quote through the final invoice. He watched the owner arrive on time, work professionally, and take on tasks that went beyond the original scope to make sure everything was done right. The install delivered solid value, and what stood out most was the owner’s punctual, above-and-beyond approach to the job.

The D. found Kevin through a Facebook solar group after months of being stuck with a half-finished rooftop system. They watched Kevin arrive early, quickly lay out what remained to be done and offer a fair estimate, then spend the day fixing sloppy work left by the previous contractor. What had dragged on for four months got resolved in a single day: Kevin diagnosed the problems, corrected poor workmanship and completed the final installation so the array now runs as intended. The detail that sticks is the one-day turnaround that not only finished the job but repaired the earlier contractor’s mistakes.

Sean H. brought Steve in to expand the solar array on his Southern California home. He watched Steve move quickly and finish the upgrade with tidy, solid workmanship, leaving him with a larger, well-functioning system and a bill that surprised him on the low side. What stood out most was the blend of speed and quality—Sean judged Steve to deliver top-notch work at the lowest price he’d seen in SoCal. The lasting impression: a fast, clean expansion completed without sacrificing quality.

Teresa G. engaged Calzona Solar to upgrade her home's electrical panel and install solar panels. She found Kevin extremely responsive and helpful throughout the process, and he and his crew completed the panel upgrade and solar installation with clearly excellent workmanship. The project resulted in an upgraded electrical panel and a working solar array, and the detail that sticks is Kevin’s responsiveness paired with the crew’s strong on‑roof execution.

Jonathan L. needed a system sized to heat his pool and worked with Kevin at Calzona Solar to figure out exactly what would be required. He discovered the team matched the array to the pool’s needs, completed the installation in a single day, and ended up with neat, attractive solar panels on the roof. The family expects to be swimming most of the year, and Jonathan appreciated the quick turnaround and clearly sized solution.

Alex hired Calzona to outfit three family homes with solar — two full systems with 36 panels each and a smaller 20-panel array on the third house. They worked directly with Kevin, who laid out the pricing clearly and kept markups on components and installation low. When a big-box provider like Costco quoted $40,000 for the same system, they compared the bids and chose Calzona, ending up paying much less across the three installs. The memorable detail: straightforward, low-markup pricing from Kevin made the cost savings over the Costco quote the deciding factor.

Fast Maker, wary after researching solar and hearing stories about high-pressure leases and overpriced installs, discovered Kevin on Craigslist while planning an 11 kW system for a home that also needed a new roof. They ran into permitting headaches and decided to ask Kevin for an all-in quote that covered equipment, design, installation, labor and permits — the total landed about the same as buying parts themselves and hiring help, so they handed the whole project to his crew. Kevin, C46 licensed, coordinated directly with the roofer so both trades installed in sync; the homeowner insisted every solar mount penetration be flashed and sealed by the roofer to protect the new roof warranty, and Kevin’s team accommodated that. The install used high-end components: 34 US-made LG 320 W panels, 34 Enphase IQ7+ microinverters, and an Enphase combiner envoy, resulting in an 11 kW system. The detail that stood out was the roof coordination — having the roofer flash and seal each penetration — so they suggest getting a quote from Kevin if you need tight coordination between solar and roofing work.

After digging into solar options and worrying about the usual stories of long leases and inflated labor costs, M T. tracked down Kevin on Craigslist while planning to buy equipment and hire an installer. Permit hassles proved tougher than expected, so they asked Kevin for a turnkey price that covered equipment, installation, design, labor and permitting — and discovered the all-in quote was about the same as buying the gear and hiring someone separately, so they let his team handle everything. They were also having a new roof installed, and Kevin (C46 licensed) coordinated directly with the roofer, making sure each solar-mount penetration was flashed and sealed by the roofing contractor so the roof warranty wouldn’t be jeopardized. Kevin’s crew installed high-end components: an 11 kW system made up of 34 U.S.-made LG 320 W modules, 34 Enphase IQ7+ microinverters, and an Enphase combiner/Envoy. The standout detail for them was the roof coordination — it removed a major worry and left them with a professionally integrated system. They suggest anyone considering solar get a quote from Kevin so they can compare a true turnkey option.
