Comment: Really appreciated the honesty and great communication. Holly Mello who was assigned as our project manager stayed involved through out the whole project. We worked with her both for additional panels and adding power walls. She made it smooth and stayed on top of it. Thank you!

Comment: I am very happy with Citadel. Their estimated re-roofing and solar panel installation quote was about five thousand dollars less than their major competitor and was not a hard sell. When a permitting issue rose up, the company successfully negotiated with my town in order to save me several thousand dollars. They kept me informed throughout the project and finished everything when they said they would. They suggested how I could save a great deal of money by installing rain gutter mesh on my own. Because they were prompt about completing the paperwork with PG&E, I was able to qualify for the NEM2 reimbursement rates before they were superseded by the NEM3 rates. Finally, they did a thorough job of cleaning up debris from the re-roofing.

Comment: We had a class action lawsuit settlement claim on our previous solar panels and it was assigned to Citadel Roofing & Solar. They were very communicative and show up on time for appointments. Their work was professional. The technician needed to go up to the attic and he was cautious in not messing up our house. We were satisfied with and would recommend their service.

Comment: Liam one of the account manager there was excellent. I highly recommend him. I helped my 87 year old aunt plan solar panels in and a new roof in Berkeley. Liam was great. Easy to work with. Responsive. Knowledgeable and EXTREMELY patient with my Aunt who had a ton of questions. Very happy working with Liam and Citadel. Also prices were the best.

Comment: I chose Citadel roofing and solar after reviewing several solar quotes from various sources. After signing the contract I was assigned with a project manager (Megan) who kept me up to date with the progress and ETAs through out the project.In comparison to others within my community who went with other vendors and had their contracts signed before me, my project moved ahead at a stead pace much faster and also finished a lot ahead of the rest of them.Citadel was able to work with my citys officials/inspectors quickly to get inspection appointments and re-appointments to get through the necessary inspections/clearances.PGE was able to provide me the Permit To Operate within a week of application - which was pretty fast considering the huge rush at this point of time.Overall it took about 4 months from the time of contract signing to Permit to Operate, longer than the initial estimate but this was during the peak time when many homes were trying to get into NEM 2.0.All the ground workers/installers were Citadel employees (unlike other projects/vendors who hire contractors) and were professional & courteous, shout out to them as they are the ones who did the job on the ground.Would definitely recommend Citadel Roofing and Solar.People I worked with: Chris from Sales, Megan and Brandi the project managers.

Comment: I had Citadel RS expand my solar system just prior to the PG&E change to NEM v3.0. Obviously, timing was critical to ensure that the expansion didnt jeopardize my grandfathered NEM v2.0 agreement. Citadel RS came through with flying colors. Holly Mello was my project PM and she kept me updated throughout the process, as well as answered all of my questions. When PG&E was delayed in providing permission to operate, Holly proactively made sure I knew that my project qualified for keeping NEM v2.0. The installation went very smoothly and the installers were very professional and cleaned up thoroughly after installation. I was very satisfied with Citadel RS and I would recommend them to anyone seeking a solar installation.

Comment: This company is new to us this summer! The customer service is superior-the technicians are excellent. They are knowledgeable, arrive at scheduled time, courteous and great about follow up information when the service is complete. Bernice responds very promptly to emails, and arranges for the technicians to come out. Our first experience was in June to replace 3 micro inverters. this is on a system that they did not install but due to retirement of the installer we were needing help! Eric was the first technician and this past week TJ was here to resolve a connection issue. They both provided excellent service. We are so pleased and happy to know we have found a business that provides this high quality service!

Comment: Has to have one of the best Customer service i’ve ever dealt with. I was having issues connecting my solar panels to the app. So I called Citadel and they had someone at my house within two hours. He said he couldn’t fix it all on the spot, but it said he would be able to do it remotely so he went home to work on it. And it was up and running within 2 hours after he left. He then text me explaining what was wrong and how he fixed it. Thank you again for all your help!

Comment: I did my homework and shopped around and on paper Citadel seemed to be the best option. From an execution standpoint, they have missed every step of the way. There were delays, there was communication misses between their sales and ops groups, and now my roof leaks every time it rains. I recommended Citadel to my in laws and friends and unfortunately, they are all having issues as well. Citadel has been incredibly slow to resolve any issue and am afraid that they have caused far more costs than they savings I was expecting to have through solar. I trusted this company because they had a history of being experts in roofing, but have missed there as well and cant repair our roof. There are many good solar installers out there and Citadel is not one of them.UPDATE: 11/8/22 First big storm of the season and my roof is once again leaking after the problem was addressed. Also, the only time real action was taken was when I wrote the negative review. I have spent more time, energy, and money on this project than I could have possibly imagined and am still left with a leaking roof.***Update: 5/25/22 Citadel continued to work with me and address the issues. Meghan Kelly Perez on the Citadel team was a great resource and wouldnt quit until I was satisfied. After lots of work and communication, we got to a good place and now my roof and solar are working well. Fingers crossed that continues.

Comment: Citadel professionally guided me through the process to design the appropriate solar system size based on power usage and available roofing space . Citadel kept the communication channel open to keep me in the loop during the permitting process and coordination with PG&E. Citadel delivered what they promised.

Comment: From start to finish great job. System was sized properly. Also put on roof in best location. Crew that did install was fast and efficient. Cleaned up cleaner than when they started. Was up and running the next day when the system was programmed and hooked up. Absolutely no issues. I Recommended Citadel to my son as well as other in the community. They also spotted a small potential leak on my roof which they fixed no charge. Completely satisfied. Thanks.

Comment: A few years ago, we contracted with Zenernet for a solar panel installation. After over a year of delays, Zenernet claimed bankruptcy. We were left high and dry with an inoperable, incomplete system.Another homeowner in the same situation recommended Citadel Roofing & Solar of Vacaville.I contacted Bernice Yoder of Citadel and she could not have been more helpful. We gave her access to Enphase monitoring and she then troubleshot our system over the phone. After she got us turned on and generating, we discovered that one of the micro converters was not functioning. After having a new part delivered to our house, Bernice dispatched a tech to our house and he replaced the part in less than 30 minutes under warranty.The main reason I recommend Bernice and Citadel very highly is because of their response to my initial call. Previously, I had called numerous solar companies and they had no interest in assisting with some other company’s unfinished project. I’m sure others of you have experienced this as well. Bernice was eager to help from the get go, and was very responsive every inch of the way.

Comment: I had a different company reroof my house and install solar panels. That was a big mistake. After having Citadel Roofing & Solar (CRS) handle the battery back-up project for my solar system, it was clear I should have had them do everything.CRS was extremely professional and patient. I say patient because PG&E had to replace the transformer on my street before they could begin their work. My project was delayed for over a year before they could get started. Once they began they were quick to finish. The final product is beautiful.I was fortunate to qualify for PG&E’s SGIP funding. The coordination and paperwork involved in that program was very complex. Tiffanie‘s knowledge of the program made that process remarkably smooth. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. All I had to do is wait for my reimbursement check from PG&E.Christopher Blank, Holly Mello, and Tiffanie Gulley of CRS are an outstanding team. I can’t thank them enough.

Comment: Citadel roofing and solar came through once again. I must say it to particular employees and how much they impressed me.Gideon was outstanding with his knowledge and his follow up. Sometimes even calling me late into the evening to make sure that my plans were personalized and expertly designed. The other is the famous Miss Holly who insured that I was informed every step of the way that my project was on time and was moving forward. What was very impressive about Holly was even though California is moving towards NEMS 3 and her work requirements were up at least 300% she kept everything on track. Great work!!

Comment: Absolutely fantastic job with our solar and Powerwall project, start to finish... Evan in sales was responsive and professional, our project manager Megan was always prompt and courteous keeping us up to date and moving things along. The installation was completed in two days by an experienced crew (Francisco & his team on the roof, Lam & Kevin with the power equipment). The field team was right on schedule and cared absolutely about quality and finished work. Now Im watching on a Tesla app as sun power completely carries the home load and charges the powerwalls to continue carrying the home load after sunset. Awesome job... we recommend Citadel completely!

Comment: Eric Rejrat did a great job for us. He came in a week earlier than scheduled to install our inverter so our solar system would be back up and producing quickly. He made sure to squeeze us into his schedule. Eric is professional, works quickly and got the job done right. He also made sure to get us a new inverter even though SolarEdge was fighting him on it. Highly recommend!

Comment: When we started our solar research, we reached out to 4 different companies. Two big solar names and two others that were referred by friends. We were least impressed with the two big name companies as they handed us off to high-pressure sales agents that bid on systems that werent optimum for our house size, so they appeared less expensive. Once we asked to compare same size systems, their bids came in much higher than what they originally proposed.We selected Citadel Roofing & Solar and are extremely happy with that decision. Their sales rep Jim was awesome, super friendly, no pressure and extremely honest and knowledgeable. He came back multiple times, just because we had more questions or needed clarity as this was our first experience with solar. The roof layout of our 3800sf home was not so simple to work with due to all the peaks and valleys that it contains. Jim and Citadel put together a perfect system that included 28 REC panels, Enphase microinverters and two Tesla batteries. The batteries were something we really wanted, not something they pressured us to add. We were also impressed to see that many of the newly built high-end homes in our area use Citadel for their solar installs as well... to us that says a lot.Once we signed our contract and got handed to the team they were also amazing. Holly was our project manager. She was always available to answer our questions and stayed in constant communication as we went through the process. She handled everything from scheduling installation to the permitting, inspections, and coordinating the permission to operate with PG&E. It was nice to have one point-of-contact and Holly was always so kind and quick to respond.The installation was smooth and efficient. Jim came by several times during the install to ensure everything was proceeding smoothly. Ours was a little more complex as we opted for a whole house back-up, and we did not want unsightly conduit running all over the exterior of the house. Lam and his team put together a design that ran underneath in our crawl space from the new panel to the batteries and then one nice run up to the roof. They even painted it to match our exterior paint color. They definitely went above and beyond to make sure everything was aesthetically pleasing and done to perfection.The final result is a very clean looking, impressive product that we are extremely happy with. The phone app is also user friendly and fun to watch and see our energy production and consumption and how little we now rely on the grid. We owe a huge thank you to Citadel and their entire team. They are all true professionals, and we give them the highest recommendation. You do not see this kind of service too often. If we could give them 10 stars, we would!!!

Comment: Had a great experience with Citadel Roofing and Solar. I noticed their truck at a neighbors house having a new roof and solar installed and got the idea to call them based on the cleanliness of their work. From the very beginning their staff were professional and courteous. Their pricing was significantly lower than competitors and their installation of both a new roof and solar array were seamless. Their technicians took the time to explain what they were doing and clean up well afterward. Their office staff including the project estimator, planner, and coordinators were a pleasure to work with and answered my many questions without frustration. I would highly recommend them.

My project manager kept me up to date on status and they installed as promised despite storms and holidays. The work was neat and professional. And no leaks after install when a major storm came and dumped 2 inches of rain. I would recommend Citadel and caution you from those door-to-door solar salesmen that tell you its free.

Comment: Had a Solar installed with Citadel 3 months back. I was skeptical about the company since the company is not in the bay area. I saw a few good recent reviews so I decided to take a chance. I talked to Megan and shared my concerns about the fact that they are not a local company and a few not so good reviews a few years back. Understand my concerns, she kept me in the loop on the status and response quickly when I have questions. Once I signed the contract, the assigned a person to survey my roof location, sent the design for approval, and have a troop to install the Solar in a day. The city inspection came out 1 month and half later w/o any issue. Permission to Operate (PTO) from PG&E is about two weeks. Now I am utilizing my Solar! It is a long process from the beginning to the end (4 months). Thank you, Megan for keeping your words! It is a pleasant working with you and the Citadel team.

Comment: Working with Citadel was a wonderful experience from the start. Gideon and Dieter got me a terrific price on the project and they came recommended to me by Terry and Kirk, my neighbors. I was not disappointed! The Installers were in and out in 2 days and Megan White, my project coordinator, was on top of the process and kept me informed the whole way. We live in the country and use a great deal of electricity (wells, landscape watering and A/C in the summer, and got tired of $700-plus utility bills in the summer. Just got service connected with PG&E and will be much less afraid to open our PG&E statements in the future. Many thanks to Dieter and all the other great employees at Citadel! I just recommended them to my church Pastor, so you can bet that I trust them! Mark & Ki Welch, English Hills

Comment: We used Citadel for our solar and were very happy with their customer service and their installers. It was a little slow at first with our designated sales rep Ambrish and we did have some trouble getting in contact with him but once our Project Coordinator Megan took over it was smooth and seamless! Ty did a great job with the initial inspection and install was quick and Danley did a great and thorough job with the final inspection. Megan was especially helpful in answering all of our questions and her response time for the items we needed to submit to the HOA was fast! I would definitely recommend Citadel!

Comment: When we bought our 2nd home a solar sales person came to our door and sold us on Solar, 5 years later when we tried to sell the house it was awful. Citadel Solar has helped my Father-in-law with his solar and offered to help us with showing the potential buyers why having solar was a good idea. Since that system was through another provider, they got nothing out of it other than good-will. Fast forward a few months and were ready to put solar on the house we bought. Shopped around a bit and found that the pricing from Citadel was better than other companies. Not only was the price actually lower, it included better panels. Throughout the entire process our project manager was readily available for any questions, regularly communicated on the status, and generally over-communicated in the best possible way. Right around the time I was wondering what was going on Id check my email and there would already be an email updating me. The installers were very pleasant to interact with, the work they did was quality. It was as painless a process as possible and I am happy to recommend the crew at Citadel to anyone looking to add, or expand, their Photovoltaic system.

Comment: Ive now been a customer of Citadel for the past 3 years. They initially installed my solar and fixed a leak. I followed up with them to add additional solar panels and add Tesla battery back ups. They have been great to work with and when Ive had issues, they are on top of it right away.I normally dont write a lot of reviews or forward recommendations, but I have so far had Citadel install solar or batteries at 4 family members. I highly recommend them.

Gideon and Holly were awesome during our consult phase, options and selections (who knew there were so many color options for a roof!) Zach was the project manager once we started work and was very easy to communicate with and was very quick and responsive! Crew was great about taping off and marking for safety where they were, which was great since we were on site for part of the work and I have littles. Would highly recommend citadel to friends and family!

Comment: Citadel roofing & solar were one of the most competitively priced companies for solar. They have quality panels and their reps are very responsive. I had lots of questions and they took the time to answer all of them. The entire process was pretty much hassle free. They did all the permits and scheduling of inspections. From signing the contract to finishing with PGE giving me the official permission to operate took about 2 months.

Comment: I moved into my new JMC Home about a year ago that had solar panels installed by Citadel. I noticed that one of my panels was not performing as well as the others. I called Citadel, and they first replaced a enphase micro-inverter. That did not take care of the underperformance, and so they installed a brand new panel and micro-inverter. Tyler (know as TJ) was excellent in his work and follow up. I have had different solar systems on two different homes, and I think Citadel is top notch!

Comment: This company is fantastic. I highly recommend them. They installed Solar and a Tesla Battery Backup system for me almost 2 years ago. They did a terrific job from start to finish. It went very smoothly and they were extremely professional and easy to work with. Their staff stayed involved with me during and after the project was completed to make sure I filed for and received all of the Rebate and Tax write-off money I was entitled to. I got all of it thanks to them. The system they installed for me works terrific. I worked with Eric Andresen in Sales there all the way through the process. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Solar systems, Battery backups, and the systems Citadel installs. He has continued to reach out to me to make sure my System is working well 2 years later. The icing on the cake was today, Labor Day, during a current power outage we are having. I touched base with Erik with some questions on how my System was performing with the power outage. He called me right back and spent an hour with me on his holiday day off to make sure my System was performing optimally!! Answered all of my questions, and accessed my system remotely so he could see in real time what I was seeing. He gave me some great tips and insights into a couple of things I can do to optimize my System’s performance during Power Outages. His dedication, knowledge, and passion for his work are truly remarkable. I highly, highly recommend using Erik and Citadel Roofing and Solar. Excellent company, product, and service. You will be very happy you did!

Comment: We bought a new house in Clovis that came with solar and was installed by Citadel. We decided to install a bigger solar system and Tesla battery storage. Since Citadel already installed our first system and was familiar with our roof/home, we thought we would have Citadel install the 2nd system/battery. From the sales through the rebate process, we had a great experience with them. They are very communicative and responsive to any questions/concerns. We had a few items post installation that needed follow up and I very impressed that they sent technicians usually the following day to fix the issue. Citadel also took care of the PG&E battery cash rebate process – from filing the paperwork to following up with PG&E, we were very thankful to have Citadel guide us through the process. We love our solar systems and Tesla battery storage - thank you Citadel!

Comment: We installed a solar system on our new house. The Citadel staff were professional, accurate and timely. They handled all of the appropriate interactions with PG&E as well as permits, etc. The solar system came online on schedule about a year ago and has been trouble free since.

Comment: Great company . We had a problem with our new house because they put our solar facing west instead of south and citadel came out and moved the panels into their optimum position. Citadel also cleaned the panels and replaced 6 roof tiles while up there. They are professional and stand behind their product . Customer service is amazing and solar panels seem great so far

Comment: Technicians were great, polite & respectful. Tiffanie Gulley was in charge of filing paperwork, getting rebates done & coordinating with the Utility, she was spot on every time. Megan White was my PM, responsive, knowledgeable. install to operating system took much longer than io had anticipated, however..... system is complete, functioning & operating perfectly..Brian

Comment: Honestly, I put this off forever, and I was dreading this because of all the horror stories I had heard. My first experience with another company was terrible, and they broke tiles on my roof during the inspection. But a friend recommended Citadel, and once I talked with Kevin Babcock, I was so glad I went with them! Kevin answered all my questions (on several occasions!), and he and Ashley Donald worked hard to qualify me for two Tesla batteries through a grant program from PG&E. They helped me with the financing and everything. Now I have a system that has the best rated panels, and two backup batteries, and I couldnt be happier! Would highly recommend them, they treated me and my home with respect. Very happy with my choice.

Comment: Excellent customer service. I worked with several contacts during our battery project. Everyone was professional, responsive and courteous. The sales representative worked around our needs and we negotiated a deal that fit our budget. The installers were efficient, professional and neat. I would definitely recommend them for your upcoming projects.

Comment: These guys are total professionals. I am extremely happy with how the entire process went from start to finish. Eric Andresen was my Sales Rep and he did an amazing job setting it all up. Ticia Sauceda was my Project Coordinator throughout the entire project. She was excellent, and checked in with me every week to let me know how things were going. I got Solar and a Tesla Battery installed as well. The two guys who came to do the installation were excellent, they did a fantastic job, and were very professional. It all looks and works amazing! The entire project was certified by the Napa City Inspector and PG&E without any problems. The work is excellent. I now have two Apps on my phone so I can monitor my Solar System, my Battery, and my Usage levels at all times. Very cool, and very useful to me and my family. This company stands behind their work, and they do an excellent job. I could not be happier with how this project went or the outcome. I would highly recommend Citadel Roofing and Solar to anyone who is interested in doing Solar. You will be very happy you did.

Comment: Overall I can strongly recommend Citadel. They were by far the best price I got (and I met with several local solar companies as you should before signing a contract). We went into contract in early May 2020. COVID presented a few challenges for us, and probably was the main cause of us not getting an install until late July. However, the install was almost flawless with a truly professional crew. Simply cannot praise them enough. They did an amazing job with hiding the conduit so it was entirely invisible. The panels are low rise (see photo) and while I expected the panels to be more imposing you really dont know they are there. Also, as a roofing company, they understood how to deal with a cement tile roof installation.We went with their recommended panels (REC) 320 watt even though most installers are selling 350 watt panels now. 320 watt are sort of last years model but we had room for additional panels and going with the 320 watt panels saved money. If you are getting high quotes for 350 watt panel installation this is a possible alternative for you.I will say I considered holding back one star because of the project management process. Our sales contact Gideon was terrific, but the handoff to project management had a few bumps. It seems like their project managers are stretched thin, and as a result we did not get the attention we should have during the long wait between contract execution and installation. While that was frustrating at times it was not a dealbreaker. In the end our project manager rebounded and managed the permit process and installation coordination well so he earned back that last star. He was easy to work with but would have benefited from a little more supervision? As I said not a dealbreaker just an area for improvement for Citadel to take note.Our first bill post-solar full month bill is is due in September but the system has been cranking since day one. You can feel comfortable going with Citadel for this investment! We are very pleased with this job.PROS: Very competitive price; very professional company with excellent installation; good customer support (so far); smooth installation process with highly qualified installers; honest; fairCONS: Some lag time after contract execution; project support lagged at times prior to installation.PROJECT: 23 solar panels with a main panel upgrade. 7.36kW system. Enphase IQ7 inverters. REC320NP solar panels.COST: $23,000 +/- including main panel upgrade.EXPECTED TAX CREDIT: $6,000. Net cost $17,000 +/-.

Comment: I previously had Citadel put a new roof on my house in Berkeley in preparation for selling in 2018. I had installed solar on that house in 2002 (the early days). I chose Citadel because they did both solar and roofing and the solar panels needed to be removed and replaced after the new roof was installed. They did an excellent job.After my move to Lafayette I wanted to install solar panels on my new house. Once again I chose Citadel because of my previous excellent experience. They did an excellent job in planning the installation, installing and getting me up and running. I highly recommend them.I now look forward to monitoring my progress using the Solar Edge app on my phone and anticipating the PG&E savings accumulating each month.

Comment: The entire process was yes a learning experience but whenever there was some sort of pitfall Chris and the other staff were there to fix it. The installation team came out and had to rappel down our high pitched roof but they completed the job in a few days. Excellent craftsmanship by the the installers. I love looking at my PG&E bill every month and see how much more electricity I generate than I use. I highly recommend Citadel.

Comment: Updated Post Sept 2019: It has now been a year and I can now report the one year result of my Citadel solar system. Simply put, I could not be more delighted and thankful. My total electric cost for the past 12 months was $157. That includes NEM true-up and delivery costs and compares to my prior 12 months electric cost of $4,133. Thats a $3,976 savings!! This system will pay for itself even faster than my estimate upon purchase. And even better, no issues. A reason I used Citadel was because they were a roofing expert first. After hearing all the horror stories of roof leaks from friends and others, I wanted to avoid any roofing issues. Citadel performed and two of our friends have since used them as well. Im certainly glad I did. Thank you Nathan and everyone at Citadel.Original Post Sept 2018: Citadel installed a 9.1kWh residential system on my steep-roofed home. An excellent job, fair price and pleasant experience. Their personnel were professional, always on time, and easy to work with. Installation crew were professional, meticulous and clearly cared about doing a high quality job. System was inspected and PG&E approved far ahead of original schedule. Highly recommend. Only wish all companies could be like Citadel!

Comment: What a great experience. All levels of service and installation were outstanding. John our sales rep was very knowledgeable and very patient while answering all of our questions. Its a huge investment but Johns experience and easy to understand answers made our decision very comfortable. The installation was flawless. The guys were friendly and professional. The job took a day and everything looked terrific. They were neat and extremely careful to not damage anything. Sonya kept us updated from start to PG&E approving us to use our solar panels. I give Citadel 5+ stars and highly recommend them.Dave J

Comment: Fast, courteous service. They always kept us informed and are always willing to answer any all questions. We had several quotes and they were the only one that didnt want to install more panels than we would need plus were much easier on the bank account. Weve had no issues since the installation. They even fixed some roofing and installed a new breaker panel, without adding to the cost.

Comment: What an amazing company! We had the best experience with Citadel. Right after this past rain storm hit We noticed a horrible leak coming into master closet upstairs I called a few companies and Citadel was the most prompt. After deciding to go with them our rep Kevin Babcock ( who is absolutely fabulous) said he would have a guy come out inspect the roof for measurements and he ended up staying and fixing the leak. Kevin was so prompt with everything. Made sure we fully understood everything about our estimate. Definitely was an open book 😊, which we appreciated so much. Needless to say they will be out this Monday to start the roof and the week after to start our solar. This is the best customer service I have had the pleasure of dealing with. If I could give them 10 starts I would.

Comment: Just a quick note to tell you how much I enjoyed working with you and your crew. You made this whole experience very painless for me and kept me well informed and up to date on all aspects.Also the crew headed by Juan were so easy to have around the house and were considerate of my needs and they worked under extreme circumstances for most of the time they were here. The weather certainly give them any breaks but they kept on working in the rain until they got the job done.So now I am looking forward to a comfortably warm house without guilt over my power usage!Thanks so much.Janice Stokes

Comment: Citadel installed my solar 2 months ago. Extremely pleased with their service. John is a very informed Sales guy and walked me through all of the specs and expected performance. Allison and Tiffanie handled everything else. The installation team was very professional and worked until 8pm on the 2nd day to make sure everything was complete. The system has performed as expected.

Comment: Citadel designed and installed a 12 KW solar system and reproofed (with 4 inch foam insulation) our church sanctuary. Our roof is of very unique construction, but Citadel worked with us to get a design for both the solar and roof that we are 100% satisfied with. The installation itself was unexciting - the best kind! Two members of our congregation also had Citadel do their solar based on the great job Citadel did for the church. And it is comforting to know the same contractor did both the roof and solar - no finger-pointing between contractors if something should go wrong.

Comment: Citadel roofing and Solar were recommended to me due to quality of work. I was looking for a long lived real roofing company that knew what they were doing in Solar. Citadel Roofing and Solar fit the bill. The Citadel team was professional and did all the work in-house with no-subcontracting. During the install I spoke with several employees: salesman, installers, project manager, electrician and coordinators I was impressed that they all loved Citadel and spoke highly of how well they are treated! (A huge Compliment the the management and ownership!!) We have and aging ultralight weight tile roof and Citadel installed a 15.9Kw Solar System this March. Their work was very detailed and well planned out. Just plain excellent work. The install went great, even though it rained almost every day. I know my roof and Solar are in top shape with now after the citadel team install. I only wish I had done it sooner.

Comment: Citadel Roofing & Solar completed our solar installation this past June. From start to finish, their sale staff (John) and team of installers were exceptional. We interviewed 5 other solar companies and by far Citadel was the best and only choice for us. Their proposal presentation was outstanding and the best price. They went above and beyond with customer service, installation, and responding to any questions or concern that we had. The system installed is exactly what we were looking for and we are thrilled to see significant reductions in our utilities. You wont go wrong selecting Citadel.

Comment: John, Eric and the entire team at Citadel R&S were amazing to work with. We just completed the first full year of our solar panels and enjoyed our solar system even more when we got a credit at our true-up statement! John and the sales team was a breeze to work with and were patient while we took our time picking the financing option that was going to work best for us. They designed a system that would maximize the space we had available on our roof. Once we pulled the trigger it was a simple and painless process. When the installation of the panels was more challenging than expected due to how our sub panels were originally installed the installation team at Citadel completed the task and didnt change their price when it took additional time and personnel to accomplish. Their work was clean and left the job site better than they found it. My roof was free of leaks and my panels have performed flawlessly. I have been and will continue to recommend Citadel to my friends and family who are in the market for any roofing or solar needs.

Comment: As an electrical engineer, I’ve been interested in solar for a long time. Ive seen some of the recent advancements that have taken place in the technologies, so that got me even more interested. After meeting with John Moberg from Citadel Roofing and Solar at a small event with one of my neighbors across the street, I was shown some of the hardware that would be installed on a tile roof. My only objection to solar at this point was that I had a tile roof, and I didn’t think a tile roof would lend itself to having solar panels installed. Seeing the gear that would be installed on my tile roof, made up my mind. Working with John at Citadel made it easy. He answered every question I had. He took the time to explain the background of the company and the technology. He made it a very easy process for me and I felt completely at ease working with John.My experience with Citadel has been terrific. I’ve had no problems at all. John has been there for every question I’ve had, and he’s worked me through every step of the process. I’ve been very pleased to work with John and Citadel, and I would certainly do it again. I would absolutely recommend Citadel Roofing and Solar to my friends. Citadel has been great for me and I recommend them to everyone.

The customer service was excellent; thank you Brandon & Tiffanie! The work was expertly completed with diligent supervision; thank you Martin! Every little nit-picky request we made was completed. I was really spoiled by this experience and will now expect other companies to be run as well as Citadel. Thank you Citadel!
