    My son *************************** signed a contract with YOUR ENERGY SOLUTIONS on August 24, 2022 to install a solar panel system at *********************************************************. The solar company did a survey of the property and went ahead and installed the solar panels on November 22, 2022. After the panels were installed, they billed us and paid them $13,306.00 plus our $1,000.00 deposit when we signed the contract. After installation, they told us that our main electrical panel upgrade needs to be relocated because it is directly above our gas meter per PGE building code. This will involve trenching and rewiring the whole electrical connection in order to relocate the main panel. The estimated cost for this project would be $20,000. We did not agree to this solution for the obvious reason - very expensive. They should have known about this problem when they initially did the survey. Since then, we went back and forth with this solar company on what is the best solution. They did not communicate with us for a long time and when we called and asked what was happening, the project manager handling ********** left the company and was replaced by ******* and ******* promised to get back to us soon. It has been 8 months since the panels were installed and when we contacted them recently, they said that they have found a solution to connect the solar panels to an upgraded electrical sub panel instead, and now have a revised plan. They never informed us about the revised solution until we inquired. We have emailed them to ask when this will bedone. There has been no reply. It is very frustrating and stressful to deal with this company. **** also asked them to take back their panels and refund our money, but they refused to do so.

    The background is that two years ago, we had just bought our home in Alamo and contracted Your Energy Solutions to take down solar pool panels and PV system to do a reroof. Fast forward to December 2023. My pool guy had instructed me to empty the solar pool panels ahead of freezing temps. When I got on the roof, I discovered damaged shingles under the lower header of the pool panels. After some detective work, including going back to the video taken by the real estate agent for the prior owners, we determined Your Energy Solutions completely forgot to install the lower clamps per the manufacturer's instructions when reinstalling the pool panels. Without the clamps, the lower header has been sitting right on the shingles, and two years of thermal expansion and contraction have caused nearly 40 spots of damage to what is practically a new roof. We had never owned a pool or PV system before, so we trusted Your Energy Solutions to do the job right. I had no reason to figure out what the right installation looked like. Now I know, and ours isnt right. After the discovery of the damage, I had the roofing company (P.R.I. Premier) who did the reroof, and the repair quote came back at over $1,200. Ive been trying to get Your Energy Solutions to make a wrong a right since January 8th, and here we are at the end of the month with no resolution. After repeated attempts over the past two weeks, I can't get them to talk to me. On top of the roofing repair bill, I still need someone to fix the botched reinstall of the pool panels. I have no option but to take them to court for reimbursement. Run, dont walk away from Your Energy Solutions. Y.E.S. is a big NO!
