Rehab Solar Construction reviews

William hired Trevor at Rehab Solar to install a rooftop solar system in August 2016, and nearly two years later he remains delighted with the outcome. The panels cut his electricity costs so much that his monthly bill now feels like a small pleasure, even though the upfront investment was substantial despite available tax breaks. Trevor guided him through the purchase, offered straightforward, unbiased advice, and completed the installation — during which a couple of roof tiles were broken. Even so, Trevor’s integrity showed across the whole process, from the initial sale through a follow-up visit a year later. What stuck with William most was that ongoing attention combined with the steady, joyful drop in his power bills.

Prncs D. worked with Trevor at Rehab Solar to put solar on a manufactured home and appreciated how he handled every step — before, during and after the process. They found Trevor informative and patient, answering questions and dispelling the specific concerns that often come with installing solar on a manufactured home. Clear explanations and steady follow-up turned an uncertain decision into a confident one, and what stayed with them most was Trevor’s ability to make solar feel practical for their type of home.

Stan P. worked as a lead Systems Engineer on the ISS electrical power system — a 200 kW PV array with 45 minutes of battery backup — so he approached his home solar project with extremely high standards. He demanded a design, equipment list, and installer selection process that would meet permits and perform for decades. When he met Trevor of Rehab Solar, Trevor shared the same vision and stayed involved from the earliest planning stages, helping settle system size, vendors, and pricing. He picked top-tier components — a 10 kW PV array with DC optimizers, paired with 20 kW of battery storage and a 15 kW inverter — equipment Trevor was already installing for other customers. Wanting practical long-term access, he intentionally asked for a gap between panel rows to make future cleaning and maintenance easier, and Trevor rearranged the layout to accommodate it. The system is grid-tied but, so far, has not drawn a single drop of electricity from the grid; during summer it has been operating flawlessly as if off-grid. From his expert perspective, he could not find a more thorough, cooperative, and knowledgeable installer offering competitive pricing — and the detail that stuck with him:

Ken B. faced an old Zinsco 100-amp panel that needed replacement. Trevor removed the old panel, installed a 200-amp, solar-ready Square D unit, and ran the whole project from start to finish. He watched Trevor coordinate with SDG&E to pull a larger service conductor from the nearby pole and take care of the permit work and final inspection. He ended up with an upgraded 200-amp service, an enlarged utility feed, and a completed inspection — the part that stood out most was Trevor handling every step, including utility coordination and sign-off.

Wendy L. had shopped multiple quotes for a home solar system without pulling the trigger until she met Trevor, owner of Rehab Solar. She found him refreshingly straightforward — he laid out each option in plain language, priced the work fairly, and didn’t push hard sales tactics. The crew handled the install without drama, and in a short amount of time her panels were fully functioning. What stuck with her most was the trust: a contractor who put her interests first and delivered a clean, reasonably priced outcome.

Ron already had solar on his home and, after a phone chat with Trevor, landed a rate of $3 per kWh — undercutting competitors at $3.50. A two-man crew came out to do the install; one of them was the electrician, who worked like a perfectionist and even corrected a sloppy paint job left by a previous vendor. Trevor stayed personally available throughout the process — he picked up the phone whenever Ron had questions and kept the job moving smoothly. The detail that stuck with him was the electrician’s attention to finish work: fixing the earlier vendor’s poor paint made the installation feel properly finished.

Barbara L. called Rehab Solar after her household’s electricity use climbed and she needed to add more panels. Trevor came out, put together a bid she compared against other local offers, and although the numbers were similar she chose Rehab Solar because they’re nearby and Trevor felt easygoing and competent. Rain delayed the start, but Trevor kept her updated and set a new date; when the crew got to work the installation moved quickly, looked tidy, and left her worry-free. Two weeks later the city inspector signed off on the system. She appreciated that the company handled the behind-the-scenes paperwork and scheduling so she never had to chase anyone — what she remembers most is Trevor’s steady communication and the inspector’s clear approval.

Techno G. reached out to Rehab to boost an existing leased solar setup on his ranch-style home and discovered a team that made the whole project effortless. Trevor mapped out a supplemental system specifically to wipe out the utility bill, gave a straight-up assessment of what would work, and Ashleigh in the office cobbled together creative financing to buy out the old lease. The crew managed permitting, installation and the paperwork, so he hardly had to be involved. Communication stayed clear and professional the whole way, and the installers proved reliable and knowledgeable. He ended up with an integrated system and a cleared lease — the standout detail being that Rehab turned a tricky lease buyout into a finished setup that actually eliminated his monthly bill.

Gloria O. moved into a new-build home in a development that already had solar panels on the roof, only to discover the original solar contractor stopped returning calls and emails. Left without the paperwork needed to activate the system, her builder handed the problem to Trevor and his team. Trevor stepped in, redid all the necessary documentation, submitted everything to Edison, and stayed on the case until the utility issued permission to operate. She watched them handle the paperwork, chase the utility, and close the loop with steady, efficient follow-through. The detail that sticks: rather than passing the problem along, Trevor’s team took ownership and carried the project through to final sign-off.
