Excel Solar was professional, honest, and reasonably priced. They fixed our problem quickly and did not try to upsell us something that we did not need. We could not have asked for better service.

I had an intermittent problem with a circuit breaker popping in my solar panel array. This happened perhaps a half dozen times over a 2 year period. The incidents occurred after a heavy rain, so the team focused on looking for wiring that was exposed to the environment. They found a connector between one solar panel and the wiring harness. They reseated the connector and added additional protective covering. It's been over a month with a lot of rain. No incidents to date. I think they found root cause.

They were prompt, staff polite and were able to fix our leak quickly and spotted a second one. Also they told us they can service our electrical solar as well.

First time we used Excel Solar. I had a leak in my solar pool heater. They were up front with what the sirvice call included on the phone, came the next morning, very professional. Bryan and Silas did an excellent job, told me the extra parts cost before they did anything. All fixed now. I would use them from now on.
