Electrical reviews in Vancouver, Washington

What I love about this company is how responsive, prompt and friendly they are for us every time. As an HVAC Contractor, we use them frequently to help us complete projects. The office staff and the electricians in the field are always on time and friendly. They have the right attitude for a successful partnership. We appreciate being able to count on them for the sake of our reputation and the satisfaction of the homeowners.

As my track record as a reviewer attests, I don't dole out 5 star reviews indiscriminately. I can't think of very many companies that deserve a 5-star review more than Eric Olson Electric and its owner, Brady.
I've been working with Brady for over 5 years. He has re-wired my entire 1907-built house from top to bottom and moved heaven and earth to make my wife's and my (often unreasonable) requests happen. He has hung off the side of my house by his fingertips to remove old conduit pipe, he has crawled into the depths of my claustrophobic basement crawlspace to bring 6-3 wire for a future pottery studio and he has looked out for me repeatedly when he's observed shoddy work from other trades (such as prior electricians, framers, drywallers, HVAC installers, etc.).
If you see a negative review about Brady's company, you should be highly skeptical of the reviewer for four reasons: (1) Brady has the utmost integrity. I can't count on both hands the number of instances that he's stopped by my house to take care of an issue without charging me, (2) Brady and his employees are sticklers for safety and will flat out refuse to do any electrical work that would expose anyone to danger, (3) Brady and his employees know their electrical code backwards and forwards (and take obscene pleasure in quizzing each other) and (4) Brady, like my wife, is very particular about electric work being done in the most aesthetically-pleasing way.
I would bet my house that Eric Olson Electric would never leave bare, live wires attached to ceiling can lights, cut sheathing off new wiring, install outlets with loose wiring or not connect the ground wires on installed lights. In fact, I feel so strongly about this that I would happily attest to Brady's skills. If you're thinking of hiring Eric Olson Electric (and I would recommend them wholeheartedly), feel free to e-mail me. My e-mail is my first and last name altogether as one word at live.com. You can also ask Brady for my cell phone number. -
Fantastic Solar Installation Service in West Linn!
I recently had Nationwide Solar install solar panels at my home in West Linn, and I am extremely satisfied with their work. The team, including Aaron German, Fabian Angobung, and Tucker Alayla, was exceptional. They completed the installation in just 2 days and were very professional throughout the process.
Nationwide Solar's attention to detail and commitment to quality were evident from start to finish. Aaron, Fabian, and Tucker were not only efficient but also maintained a high level of professionalism. I can already see the benefits of having solar panels installed and am thrilled with the results.
I highly recommend Nationwide Solar for anyone in need of a reliable and top-notch solar installation service in West Linn. Thank you to the entire team for a job well done! Five stars! -
We had a great experience from the very start with Ruban starting the process of solar to scheduling for the installation with Dotty and Ashley. Michael for explaining detailed installation instructions. Aaron and Tucker the installers that’s did an amazing job and cleaning up all the stuff and letting us know everything step of the way to completion. We would recommend Nationwide Solar Energy.

Had an amazing experience from start to finish. Looked into other companies, even “cheaper options” and we still chose Nationwide. We chose them for two reasons!!! 1. Their staff, sales reps and leadership team were amazing to work with, open and transparent. We immediately clicked and trusted them. 2. The quality of their products and support offered after install could not be matched with any other company.
We are extremely happy with our purchase for our system. 11kw system, 33 panels and it looks amazing! Sleek, slim, low profile, black on black.... simply beautiful. We could not be happier, if you’re thinking about getting solar installed and looking at companies I highly recommend giving them a call! If i could give more than 5 stars I would.
We are excited to be a part of the nationwide family! -
When we moved into our new home in May 2022, Solar was something we were interested in. We were able to get connected with a system that works perfectly and saves us money. The installation process was easy, and the workers were efficient and professional. The management staff has gone above and beyond to make sure any potential problems were a non issue. Would highly recommend!

Install was excellent. Nick Joscelyn, Eddy Esparza, and Chris Boydson were professional and efficient through the whole process on a hot, muggy day for northwest Washington.

I have solar! The process has not been easy but it is now complete thanks to the people who worked very hard to get this project completed. The newest project manager Taylor managed to put the puzzle all together with the help of the crew who spent long days and many hours installing 31 panels on 2 buildings.
I can not say enough good things about the electrician Lance and his crew. His helpers, Wyatt, Brandon, Robert C all worked very hard and many long hours. They all were very professional, and respectful of me and their co-workers. It was apparent that they all had terrific work ethics. They all went above and beyond to make sure that my project was installed as quickly and kept me informed of the status along the way.
The process from beginning to the end was not as planned. I started in the spring of 2022 and was promised installation would be complete by summer 2022. When nothing had started by the end of summer, I cancelled my order. Communication was horrible, many calls made that were not returned, lots of blaming, and excuses. The owner called me when he found out that I was cancelling the project. Through many conversations he then promised me start dates Once started.....in the fall 2022 the installers did not have all the equipment and supplies that were needed. There were lots of delays due to them having to chase down many of their supplies, people not showing up for work, not having equipment to dig trenches. It was obvious that the right hand did not know what the left hand was doing. The schedulers would schedule them to be at my house in western WA, the afternoon of them working in eastern Washington. They obviously had no idea now many miles were between the 2 job sites in the 2 locations. There were installers sent to fix problems that they did not know about and then did not have the panels that should have been delivered weeks earlier. Inspectors arrived and the project was not ready to be inspected.
The new project manager pulled it together with the installers and by the end of December 2022 my solar was up and running.
I was also given poor information by the sales people regarding the 26% rebate which I was told I would be getting a check from the government that I could apply to the loan. They did not say that the rebate would be received over a five year period. Leading me to believe that I could apply a $14,000 rebate to the loan which would keep they payment that they (the sales people) told me it would be $179 per month. Without $14,000 being applied in the first year, my payment will rise to around $250 per month. Plus, I will still have a power bill, though hopefully not as high as it has been. A very misleading sales pitch!
Not an easy project; I am so glad that it is done and so appreciate the people who managed to pull it together complete it. Taylor, Lance, Wyatt, Brandon and Robert C. -
Nationwide solar installed critter guard around the existing solar system that I had to protect our solar system from squirrels that had started to nest under the solar panels. Aaron and Tyler briefed me on what they were planning to do and then executed their plan flawlessly. Thank you very much gentlemen for a great job of installation and good conversation too. I do appreciate the crew listening to my concerns and acting upon them. Thanks again!

I had complex projects: 1) my duplex in Portland, Oregon, 2) my rental in The Dalles, Oregon. 3) I kept changing my mind about financing. I was told that most solar companies would not even talk to people in duplexes (I found out why--my neighbors insisted on being inserted into the liability and even sent a certified letter making me responsible for any issues---as if I wouldn't be or there was a possibility that there would be issues.) Also, Portland and Multnomah county used to be very slow to respond to applications for permits. Also, my duplex roof is small and faces East and West.
I couldn't use the same financing terms for both projects, and ultimately I went with a Home Equity Line of Credit so I could deduct the interest. According to my CPA, a 30% deduction for the cost of installation is optimistic. There are lots of other factors involved. I need the tax deductions this year so the HELoC made sense but delayed the project and I made and canceled several loans they offered.
Still, Nationwide hung in there with me.
Then I did research on the panels they use and the inverters. We had conversations about that.
So just getting started was a long process. Then we had to work with my tenant for install and inspections because he works nights and it's 80 miles away. There was a problem with his utility company since he was their customer. Took awhile to get that straightened out, too.
But once things were cleared to go, they installed right away and completed in one day. The inspector was impressed with their work. My house in The Dalles is complete. I just have to wait for the power company to replace the meter.
Through the whole process they were very responsive and cooperative. -
Jeris knocked on my door. He found us. Straightforward, honest, down to earth, professional, respectful and he didn't pressure us at all! Came in with solid statistics and reputable information to help us make a great decision. I absolutely fact checked him after he left and he was right on!
Ashley, Taylor and Dodie answered all of our questions along the way and made sure the job ran smoothly from start to finish. Always kind, professional and polite over the phone.
The installers. YOU GUYS! The stars of the show! They were young- but I was impressed from the get go. So Smart, POLITE, cheerful (even though the weather took a surprise turn mid- installation!). They communicated with us. They worked hard, and care about excellence. They cleaned up after themselves as they went. A little bit of insulation got on my stairs after they went into the attic and they rushed back in and vacuumed it up with their vacuum. Well done!
Everything Jeris told us from the start was true. This is a great company. This was the right choice for us. Great experience and I'm thrilled with the result. -
Every one I talked with were extremely pleasant and helpful. From the receptionist, our project coordinator(Abcdee), the install team and scheduler. Every one was very respectful and beyond polite. I would recommend this company. It was truly a pleasure to have worked with them.
-
I really appreciate the communication with the administration department especially their permitting department. Fabian assure us that our Solar Project is in great hands. I am glad to know how hard their Company works for installing our top of the line Solar Products and because they are local, it is easy to work with them and contact them. They have great relationships the city and it definitely shows. Nationwide Solar is here to stay.

Nationwide did a great job on my solar install, it was a painless process and now my power bill is next to nothing!!
-
We started working on getting solar panels installed about a year ago and, while it seemed long, our coordinator Kyle has been such a great help during the process. Kyle was very patient when we needed additional time for financing, and has been a great team player for Nationwide! Another shout out for Fabian, who coordinated permits, without whom we'd probably still be languishing in "permit hell." Thanks guys!

I recently had the pleasure of working with this company, and I must say that they are truly exceptional. From start to finish, their professionalism, knowledge, and communication were top-notch.
First and foremost, their expertise in their field is truly remarkable. They demonstrated a deep understanding of the subject matter and were able to provide valuable insights and solutions. I was highly impressed by their knowledge and ability to tackle complex issues.
Moreover, their communication throughout the entire process was impeccable. They kept me informed every step of the way, promptly addressing any questions or concerns I had. It's evident that they value their clients and prioritize clear, effective communication.
Overall, I cannot recommend this company enough. Their exceptional knowledge, combined with their outstanding communication skills, make them a standout in their industry. If you're looking for a company that delivers results and values its clients, this is the one to choose. A true five-star experience! -
After two other solar companies telling us we couldn't have solar panels installed, Nationwide Solar was the only company that physically came to our property and said yes, they can be installed (thank you Dylan Romero). Appointments were made in a timely manner and despite the current high demand of customers, everyone involved in the process were professional and courteous. Abcdee Phillips was our cust. svc. mgr. and it was fairly convenient to get a hold of her if we had any questions or concerns along the way. Kyle and Tristan (we hope we got their names right), we're grateful for that last phone call to tie the ends to our solar panels journey!
-
I was very pleased with the entire process from initial meeting through installation. Everyone at Nationwide with on top of things, informative, and helpful - Abcdee, Sean, and the installation crew. The inspectors from the city were also impressed with the system installed which was nice to hear!

I am a 71 year old lady with a 2 story home and saw my electric bill going up and up, until I had Solar Panels installed. I found Nationwide Solar to be honest, dependable and efficient. Everything was explained to me in detail and I was so impressed by the long term benefits. I recommend Nationwide Solar.

Hunter set us up and the process was surprisingly painless! We were given an estimate of 6-8 weeks to get everything installed, and then a few more weeks for final appt and turn on by its 6.5 weeks later and our solar is up and running. Our sales rep was very clear and informative, and our project manager was always in contact letting us know what was happening next. They even dealt with our HOA permitting, they made everything so easy!

Hunter Holifield was a pleasure to work with and an all around nice guy. He was extremely knowledgeable and had solid answers to all of the questions my wife and I had regarding changing to solar, the overall cost, benefits, tax credit, and more. Most importantly, Hunger kept it simple, and didn’t explain things in a complicated manner. Anyone looking to switch to solar through Nationwide would be lucky to have Hunter as their salesman. The install workers were quick and efficient without sacrificing the quality of their work, and they cleaned up nicely after the project was complete.
