Our experience has been outstanding! SolHome installed a new HP water heater and a new system last year. The initial install was smooth and completed on time. Their crews communicated with us well throughout the process and left the work area clean after the projects were completed. Recently we had a problem with one of our solar components and SolHome promptly responded and corrected the issue fairly quickly. All-in-all is has been a great experience.

We've contracted with SolHome on several projects over the years. SolHome repaired our solar system and also expanded it with additional panels and new technology inverters. As part of that project they also brought our electrical panel up to present day code. More recently we contracted with SolHome to have our roof replaced. I knew I could trust SolHome to remove and replaced our solar system during the roofing process. I was not wrong, they did an excellent job and we're well pleased.

I’ve worked with SolHome on several projects over the years and I’ve been very impressed with their level of professionalism and the overall quality of their craftsmanship. The PV solar system SolHome installed for us in 2022 has operated flawlessly since day one. Recently we had them reroof our home and here again they provided top quality work.

We've been using WBSD for all of our home renovations over the past 5 years and could not be happier. The renovations have included addition of a second bathroom, expansion of our home living area by 500sf, and a lot of other work both inside and outside. Quotes for work are always highly accurate, with no hidden costs, so we always have confidence that the work will be done well and within the budget we set at the beginning. We recommend WBSD exclusively when anyone asks for a builder!

April 2021 Well it has been nearly 2 years since our last remodel (bathroom - see review for that project below) and when it came time to remodel our kitchen, we got some quotes but in the end we decided to go with We Build San Diego for our kitchen remodel! Now that the kitchen has been completed we are pleased that we picked WBSD again to do the work! We got a different crew this time but again the professionalism shown by Lane, Charlie, Jason, Troy were top notch! The crew were extremely punctual, always on time exactly to the minute every morning at 7AM. They work hard days and whenever there was a decision to be made (small or large), they would always call us into the kitchen to ask us how we wanted things done instead of just "assuming" we might like something and just making the decision themselves. The crew were again very respectful of our house, space, and time. Since both my wife and I are working from home these days, they accommodated us when we had meetings or if we had to ask for no loud construction/demolishing noises during our meetings. Periodically over the project Troy the project manager would stop by and make sure everything was in order and if we needed any modifications, requests, suggestions, etc.. he would work with the crew to get it done. The kitchen turned out lovely and we are please with the whole experience again with WBSD! (before/after photos attached!) To be honest, now that the project is over, we are sad to see the crew go (This is how you can tell you made the right choice in selecting the company/people to do the work!). We miss the pizza/mexican lunch parties we had every week with the crew as we sat and got to know them better and a chance to go over any project details with them. I guess the only solution to that is to have WBSD come back out for future projects we have in mind (garage, patio, etc) when the time is right. I would not hesitate to recommend the company if you are looking to do a remodel or have some house renovation needs. May/June 2019 After some searching, my wife and I decided to have We Build San Diego redo our master bath. They are a joy to work with. Dave was very flexible with scheduling and worked with us when we had to twice change start dates. He also followed up with us periodically during the project to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. The crew are AWESOME, both Justin and Donny were great workers, they showed up on time and most importantly cleaned up after their work at the end of each day. They were very respectful of our property and house and always kept us in the loop on the work done. They have a great work ethic and good personalities and sense of humor. As a bonus, we have a full fledge lemon tree in our back yard with too many lemons, Justin offered to make us a pitcher of his special homemade lemonade! We came home one day to a cold pitcher of EXCELLENT lemonade in our fridge! On top of that he also cleaned up after himself and the kitchen supplies that he used. I would recommend anyone give We Build San Diego a try for any home improvement projects. Ours was a great experience and yours will be too!

We just completed installing an Enphase battery backup for our home solar system with SolHome. I am taking the time for this review to share how incredible this experience has been. Their communication, installation team and overall knowledge receives a 5 star ⭐️ rating.
