Solar panel repair & troubleshooting
Most calls start the same way. Something changed and the bill went up.
We don’t guess from the driveway. We test it, find it and fix it.
Inverter & microinverter repair
When the inverter faults, production can drop to zero. We diagnose string inverters and microinverters, then repair or replace what’s needed, and check what your manufacturer warranty still covers.
Solar battery service & repair
Option One Solar is a Tesla Certified Installer, including Powerwall. We check how your battery is set up, how it works with your panels, and repair what we find.
Commercial solar O&M
Downtime costs a business real money. We handle preventive maintenance and repair for business, farm, school and carport systems, including systems another company installed.
Solar panel remove & reinstall for roof work
New roof under your panels? They have to come off first. We remove, store, reinstall and test them. Our sister company, Chaparosa Roofing, can do the roof, with one combined roof-plus-panel quote and one point of contact. Or we work with your roofer.
Why desert dust & heat make maintenance matter
The High Desert is hard on solar. Dust settles between rains, wind throws debris, and summer heat stresses inverters and wiring. A maintenance visit checks all of it before it costs you production.

What customers say about our service
4.9 stars from 391 Google reviews. These are from people whose installer left them stranded.
This experience was exceptional! The company that installed my system has gone bankrupt so Tesla directed me to its trusted installers in the area. I picked Option one right at the top. Natasha was professional and very clear with communication from the start. She set proper expectations on communication with Tesla would take a week or two. The day she received the go ahead from Tesla she called and scheduled the install asap 4 days out. Later the same day they had a cancellation and were able to get everything scheduled the next day. Anthony and Jeremiah arrived at the beginning of the arrival window! They were professional, great with communication, and ready to work. I had several questions and they were prepared for all of them and super helpful. The battery removal and install took less than an hour. Naturally Tesla's update took twice as long. LOL. Still total time was under 3 hours. I have managed 100s of installers and worked in Solar, this was a fantastic expierence! Because the Tesla 3 has more storage than the 2 I asked about adding some of my Breakers to the back-up and they had options for us to do that. Obviously we Highly Recommend This Team!
My inverter for my solar system failed and the original installer is out of business. I contacted Option One Solar and spoke with Natasha about my predicament. She told me they could help and they sure did come through for me. Natasha contacted Solaredge and confirmed it was a bad inverter that was under warranty and that they would send me a new one. I received the new inverter in a few days and scheduled the install. James was here early on the scheduled day and installed the new inverter and answered all my questions. My solar was back on 9 days after I first contacted Option One exceeding my expectations. Natasha and James were great. Thank you very much. 5 STARS!!!!
I had my solar installed by another company that then went out of business. I spoke to Ivan regarding problems with my micro inverter. He had Jorge and Russell come to my home and remap the solar panel array, fixing the problems left by the original installer. Great customer service and I was kept informed every step of the way. I highly recommend Option One Solar.
