How to read this

The Contractors State License Board lists complaints it has sent for legal action, citations it has issued, and warning letters. A complaint or accusation is an allegation, not a finding. A citation is the board's finding that a rule was broken; the contractor can appeal it. Complaints closed in the contractor's favor are never listed. Most contractors have no items.

Cost and timing

Permit timeline

Across Los Angeles, a solar system permit stays open about about 8 months, from permit to final inspection

This is not how long the crew works at your home: most of it is waiting for the inspection. Ask them how many days the work takes. Waiting for the permit adds about 62 days. How long solar system jobs take.

What to ask before you hire

About Efficient Electric

  • Ask what the warranty covers and for how long, in writing.

Worth asking any solar installer

  • Can you show me proof of liability insurance and your bond?
  • What size system, which panels and inverter, and what will it make in a year?
  • Is my roof good for 25 more years, and what if it needs work first?
  • Who handles the permit and the utility's approval to turn it on?
