Why an Orange County page, from a San Diego company

Because the calls kept coming. Orange County homeowners have spent two years watching solar and roofing companies fold — and the contractors left standing locally have long waitlists for exactly the unglamorous work this wave created: diagnosing someone else's system, finishing someone else's job, standing behind a roof nobody warranties anymore. We do that work, we hold the license set it requires, and Orange County is inside our service range.

The Orange County casualty list

Altair Solar of Irvine filed Chapter 7 on the last day of 2024, and the case closed with nothing distributed to creditors — which is what a customer holding an Altair warranty was. Harness Power closed abruptly in 2023 with unfinished systems across LA and Orange counties. Milholland Electric, which served Orange County for decades, was acquired in 2024 — by us, which is why we know its install base well. And the national failures landed here too: SunPower, Lumio, Vivint Solar.

If your installer is on that list — or simply stopped answering — the guides linked above cover what survives, what does not, and what to do. The full directory of closed contractors is here.

What we do in Orange County

Solar diagnostics and repair, monitoring restoration under your own name, manufacturer warranty claims, battery service, roof repair and replacement, and the detach-and-reset that lets a reroof happen under an existing array without two contractors blaming each other. The written $399 inspection report — credited toward the job — is usually the right first step when the history of a system is murky, which with an orphaned install it usually is.

What working with us looks like

• Estimates are always free — no deposit, no pressure, and no penalty for saying no.
• The $399 inspection report, credited toward your job — the full written picture of a roof, a solar system, or both, with the fee coming off the invoice if you hire us.
• One license, three trades — general building (B), electrical (C-10), and roofing (C-39) under CSLB #1130793, so a reroof under solar is one crew and one contract instead of two companies pointing at each other.
• Manufacturer warranty legwork — in many cases we can replace failed equipment at no cost to you under the manufacturer's warranty; the inspection report tells us whether you qualify.

Call (858) 541-1097 and tell us where you are and what is going on. We are based in San Diego and we will be straight with you about scheduling a crew to your area — we would rather say no on the phone than waste your afternoon.
