Modernize Power installed a 22KW Generac whole house backup generator and a 14.8KW Panasonic ground mounted solar array with Solaredge inverters and optimizers. Although the most expensive by far for the generator, I was satisfied that Modernize was taking care of the system from soup to nuts including all the propane work. The install team was professional and courteous. The quality of the workmanship was superior in every way -- to the extent that the inspectors commented on it as well (Im an electrical engineer, but not an electrician). My disappointment, hence the 4 out of 5 was the solar. Although the solar system is 50% larger than my solar on another home, it produces 25% less energy due to the placement. The whole purpose of the solar was to ensure we were completely independent from the grid in terms of net energy production, especially since we are planning for a battery system as well. That has fallen far short of our needs. It would have been better to build a bigger system or change the placement to ensure my goals were met. I would have gladly paid more to have a larger system, but I was told this system would meet my needs. It wasnt until it was too late that I noticed the low production *after* the system was fully commissioned. That was a big miss and a huge disappointment. I struggled with whether or not to knock a star because I was really satisfied with the generator work and, as I said earlier, the workmanship is superior quality. But as it stands now, I will need to add on to this system to meet my goals -- Im not sure that I will use Modernize for that project--Im continuing to analyze the efficiency of this system to validate all of the other design tradeoffs made by Modernize -- if I dont find any issues, I will consider using Modernize in the future, but I will spend more time analyzing their design drawings and plans. Most people wouldnt be able to do that, so I recommend lengthy discussions and diligence before proceeding with a solar system from Modernize. -

Eric from Modernize Power did a fantastic job during the sales process, ensuring we got the right system for our needs. Our new solar and battery system is in the early days, but we produce what we need, store energy for the night, and have backup protection. Im glad Eric recommended Enphase. Enphases customer support has been great.Nick and the installation team, with their incredible professionalism, also did an outstanding job. From the on-site visit to the roof work and battery install, it was a professional job. We had a few issues, but the way Nick handled them made me realize we picked the right company.Its still our few months with our new system, but Im confident they will assist us if we have any issues. I will use them again and am considering adding additional batteries as we grow our family. -

I have used Eric and his team at Modernize two times in the last 6 months for projects at my home. The first project was the installation of a Generac whole house generator. From start to finish Eric and his team were very professional, responsive, and got the job done on time. The second project was solar installation. We are thrilled with the finished result and have recommended Modernize to close family and friends. -

Had Solar, whole house fan and Generac generator installed by this company! From the top down with Eric Caldwell to all of the staff, I am blown away by the precision, process and people they have! They followed though with every promise, rare these days in the construction/service industry. The service has been PHENOMENAL! Great company and great people and great work! Honest pricing, and Eric knows the solar industry and built my confidence, he actually recommended me not do certain things to save money and things I didn’t need that other companies had tried to sell me on doing. Go with this company if you’re considering going solar! -

Modernize recently installed a new Generac standby generator and new panel for us… and their team is top notch. Their quote was the lowest and the work was done exactly in the quoted time. Eric did a great job walking through the sizing and estimate. Nick and his crew did a great job with the install, working well into the evening to make sure everything was on schedule and done right. The panel itself was a lot of work and was done professionally and very cleanly. After a small oversight (most likely on my end) the Manager Brandon called me and came out that night after his regular jobs and got me up and running.Modernize really had their stuff together when it came to communication, permits, jobsite, scheduling, etc. I would not hesitate hiring them for any electrical job. -

Modernize Power installed a whole home battery backup system and I couldnt be happier. The entire process went smoothly and quick. All the employees were very nice and extremely professional. I would recommend this company for any of your electrical needs. -

Hired Modernize power to install solar panels and relied on their product judgment and materials. They were a referral from a family member to begin with who also was very happy with their work. I found the install team to be very professional throughout the process. It wasn’t until a family member had a similar install that I decided to add solar, for some years now I fought against it based on cost but now I’m happy to have done it through Modernize power, and I’m very happy to watch my solar generation feeding back to PG&E ! -

Modernize Power is by far the best contract company Ive worked with since we bought our house 4 years ago. We have a house built in the 60s with an old Zinsco panel that couldnt handle the upgrades we wanted to do to our house. One internet inquiry led me to Eric and his wonderful crew. Unfortunately for us, the upgrades we were planning wouldnt be as easy as a simple panel swap. Eric was always up front about the reality of the cost and timeline in having to bring underground cables up to code and having to work with SMUD to make sure everything was on the up and up. Every step of the way Modernize Power prepared us for what to expect when it came to every aspect of the job. My project manager, Brandon, was an absolute delight. He was quick to respond to all my questions, even if they were repetitive. Jason the lead electrician, Nick the lead installer, Sam, and Julian were continually professional, clean, and an absolute joy to speak with each and every time they were here. I absolutely can 1000% recommend Modernize Power for all your domestic electrical needs. I can sleep soundly knowing I wont be having any further electrical issues and can continue to improve our home thanks to Modernize! I wish there was a 6 star option! -

Eric and Josh were very professional and helpful throughout the process of upgrading our home. We hired modernize construction to manage the construction and installation of a roof, solar, gutters and windows on our older home. The sub contractors were excellent. Highly recommend! -

Modernize took on three large projects for us, and we could not be happier for the referral from a friend. From our first conversation with Sales, to the project completion with the engineer and techs, the process was seamless; they even took the pain of permitting, which in itself is priceless if youve ever had to go through that process. =) Everyone who came out was courteous, respectful, professional, hard-working, etc.; I cannot say enough for their work ethic and dedication to completing the projects in such a timely manner. We will definitely recommend Modernize to others, and contact them again for future projects. Big thank you to Eric, Brandon, Josh, Brian, Mike, Dustin to name a few...I know there were more who made this happen and you all are appreciated! -

Installation for a Generac whole home generator is complete. The process went smoothly. As is always the case, the city permit process is what is the most time consuming. But Modernize Power kept me apprised of each step of installation. And when the permits were approved, the installation was done quickly. The crews were professional. They were friendly and conscientious and answered all of my questions. The office staff was very responsive and walked me through the process from the first day I signed the agreement for installation to the last day where I was given training on the use and maintenance of the generator. This was a 5 out of 5 star process. I want to thank the Modernize Power Team for a job well done. -

My heater went out during that last cold snap. Modernize Construction totally upgraded my hvac system. The new system is much more efficient and my home warms up so much faster. Cant wait to see how much cooler it is this hot summer. Highly recommended! -

Eric Caldwell did an amazing job explaining everything to us about the solar panel process. We are thrilled with the performance we are receiving from our 18 panels. The installation went smoothly and everyone we dealt with was completely professional. We were comparing prices with 3 other companies and we were able to get the most bang for our buck with HomePro/Modernize Construction! -
