PerryBuilt Construction, Inc.

Marinara bused energy Sage to find a contractor for my solar installation. After reviewing a number of quotes I settled on Perry Built construction. This is a small local South Bay Area company. Their quote was comparable to other, larger, companies. Their response time was excellent and the installation was done very quickly. After the installation I had a problem communicating with the inverter. It took a while to get this solved. The inverter company is not terribly responsive and Perrybuilt is a small company so they can’t respond quickly. The problem seems to be solved. I am glad I worked with Bevan Perry. Be sure you ask all of your questions before installation as you should with all contractors.

From start to finish, Roger and Bevan were the best. Bevan told me that he thinks of every house as his own. They answered all my questions, no pressure, and allowed me to customize my solar system to meet my needs. We were able to maximize the system on my small roof. The wiring is hidden on the back of my roof and everything was done to perfection. My house is 56 years old, and they were able to hook it into my current panel. It passed inspection and I'm now interconnected to PG&E. They used black rails with Silfab Elite panels and Enphase micro-inverters. It looks great and is already saving me money. It was great to work with a local company!

PerryBuilt worked with me in maximizing the location and number of panels for my complicated roof.

My small 10 Panasonic panel system was quoted through Energysage. I decided to go with PerryBuilt due to this good rating and competitive bid. Their first design failed Fire Plan review of the Santa Clara County Fire department. It was quickly resubmitted and passed the second time. The installation of the panels and the control systems took less than 2 days. However, it took more than 1 month before my city of Campbell was asked to inspect and pass the system. During the interim, there was a lot communication lapses between PerryBuilt and I. Now I am awaiting for the PG&E to interconnect with my system. Overall, there could be better and more responsive communications from the company.

Good interaction with this installer. Was generally very responsive. At the very end they dropped the ball on some quote details and I ended up going with someone else.

Devan and Roger made this an easy process. They came out to the house quickly, worked with me to find a system that would fit my needs and were willing to accommodate a few specifics that I had in mind that other contractors were unwilling to do. While the corporate guys only look at their satellite images, Roger added real world knowledge and saw that if we could rotate the panels 90 degrees I could fit more on the South roof as I desired. Devan followed up with an amazing instal. In a few days he had all the panels up and connected and got the permit from the county. I am super impressed with the team.
