Sun’s Free Solar

Mr Good is a consummate professional. He came to the house, looked at the panel for what I thought I needed, he told me what was the current situation and what I needed to know and let me make the decision.
I could not recommend him more. Perfect.
Also, being Alameda based, he understands the extraordinary permit quagmire of Alameda.

My meter runs backwards and I don’t pay for gas thanks to Solar Kevin and his team. I have 28 panels, pay less than the competitors, received great customer service, a pristine quality install and thoroughly enjoyed the process. Kevin coordinated a new roof, engineering, permits, meter upgrade, some rewiring, all in addition to the panels. I shopped around and I’m so glad I went with Sun’s Free. Everyone should get solar. I also got a Nissan Leaf which is how I don’t pay for gas — and Kevin helped me find charging stations until I got mine installed. Overall he went above and beyond what I expected.

Sun’s Free recently completed the installation of 42 solar panels on our roof. We could not have been more pleased with every aspect of this project. Kevin arranged for city permits and managed all the interaction with Alameda Power. Both of these agencies can be a bit contentious and I don’t know if someone outside of Alameda could have done as well a job (or even done it at all). When the city insisted that we reinforce our roof, Kevin was right on it and was personally involved in the work. When the city and Alameda Power dithered, Kevin was right on it. All the construction and electrical work was done in a very professional manner. While we have not had enough sun or electric bills to really evaluate our savings potential, I love to go outside and watch our electric meter spinning backwards. I am extremely comfortable recommending Sun’s Free and have told the company to have any potential customers contact me.

I am looking into a solar system for my home. Sheldon was patient with all of my questions and didn’t push me or try to sell me into buying something today

Sheldon Norberg of Sun’s Free Solar is a breath of fresh air.
OK. So we didn’t end up getting a photovoltaic system… yet. But, that’s because Sun’s Free Solar told us the truth about our prospects. Other PV system hawkers were not so forthcoming. He could have gone for it – we were ready – but he chose good olé customer service over an easy sale. That’s golden in my book.
We live in Alameda, by the beach and covered in fog most mornings. And, we only have a small piece of acceptable roof space for a PV system. Further, we don’t have a huge electric bill despite 2 plasma TVs and a hot tub. Sheldon explained what we could expect, even with rebates and buy-​backs, and it just didn’t pencil out for us. However, if PV gets more cost effective or efficient, he’ll be the first one to get our sale.
Sheldon is extremely knowledgeable and informative about city/​state/​federal funding programs for solar installation. He’s also is familiar with local building codes and can offer lots of great advice for installation.
Sheldon’s also a really nice guy. And, he’s got integrity – which is short supply these days. I know that if my conditions change, Sun’s Free Solar will be the first company that I’ll call.
