My construction experience started on roofs. Early in my career, I specialized in metal roofs and eventually joined the Sheet Metal Workers' Union Local 104. I worked there for 18 years. In 2014, I installed solar on my own home as a first effort to bring better health to my finances. I began consulting others for their self-installed projects under the name Help You Build Solar.
My passion for solar did not originate from the green movement. I think environmental conservation is a wonderful idea, but my passion for solar came from my financial resurrection. My own solar installation was a turning point in my finances. I can't think of any more sensible investment than going solar.
My business evolved into Mirador Energy. Today, we are a full-service licensed (1038606) solar contractor. We have been blessed with the best customers imaginable. At Mirador Energy, we do not pay for reviews like many in the industry. For every posted review, we can provide a phone number of our happy customer willing to share their experience.

I've been in the solar industry and solar-financing industry for 16 years now. This is the second solar system that I've purchased (first was on my previous residence).
Danny is world-class.
The price he charges is very, very reasonable.
The roofer that he got to fix my roof prior to the solar installation was also very reasonable.
I know from years of experience that he was able to get the permit and final permission-to-operate much faster than most solar installers.
Oh, and the installation is very high quality and attractive.

I would recommend Danny and Mirador Energy to anyone living in the Fairfield/Vacaville area looking for great service and a great price! I’m a general contractor and appreciate dealing with a company that is professional and delivers as promised, and being able to deal directly with the Danny, the owner/contractor who is doing the actual work. No sales reps. Danny, the owner, is very knowledgeable and experienced, making great recommendations regarding configuring the system and responded quickly to every question and concern before, during, and after install. The whole process was very quick

5+++ We’ve had our system for a little over a month now and I can’t say enough about how pleased we are with the system Danny installed. I’m a licensed contractor and very picky when choosing someone to work on our home. I’d say Danny/Mirador Energy actually exceeded my expectations. Communication was great, work completed on time and he always took the time answer all of my questions.

Mirador Solar is dependable and affordable. The owner is a local guy and he personally insures that the customer is happy with the finished product. I highly recommend Mirador Solar and I would certainly use them again. Whether it's an add-on or a new solar system, Danny will be your best choice. He did an add-on solar system for me, and I couldn't be happier with the results.

Here's my Journey!!! Why are you on Yelp searching for Solar Companies? If you are like me, it was to find the best price and a company/contractor that was going to be honest, trustworthy, and reliable. I did not want to invest this much money and feel like I was another pay check or I got ripped off. It took me 3 years and 10 quotes to finally feel comfortable to make a wise educated decision on investing in solar. I first started by looking into big companies like Peterson & Dean, Future, etc. I learned that they are pricey because they are a big team (i.e. knockers - people that

I have had the pleasure of working with Danny for over a year now. In my opinion he is the best solar installer in the greater Sacramento valley. He is honest, detail oriented and has exceeded my expectations in all aspects. If you are looking to have solar installed on your house or business, look no further. Give Danny a call!
Thanks again!!!

Danny is a wonderful person and a very good business man. He is very prompt on his appointment times and goes the extra mile to please his customers. It's great having a local guy we can count on and depend on. His work is very professional and detail oriented. We are very pleased on how our system turned out. We also have an electric car which makes driving it almost free. It's nice to get a monthly bill of only around $10 and that's with us having a hot tub also.
I highly recommend Danny and his awesome personality and expertise with the whole solar installation process.

Danny helped me every step of the way in designing and implementing the rooftop solar system for my house. He did all the drawings, handled the permits, and got the system approved. He was helpful throughout the installation process and made every effort to make sure I was completely satisfied. He went above and beyond expectations. The most impressive thing about Danny and Mirador Energy was that he stayed committed to my satisfaction and continued to help me well after the checks cleared. That is a tribute to his integrity and customer-centric attitude. The system is performing fine. I give Danny

I have been interested in solar for quite some time now. I always stopped at the different vendors' booths at the home shows. My goal was to get enough solar panels to completely eliminate my electric bill. Each time I checked, it was going to take 7 to 9 years to recoup my investment.
Then I heard about "Help You Build Solar". I gave them a call and Danny came out to give me an estimate. The system he quoted me was based on my last 12 months of PG&E electric bills. The estimate was for designing the system, ordering all the parts I would need, then giving me advice on the build

We hired Help You Build Solar to help me design and order rooftop solar panes for our home. Prior to that we had consulted all the "big boys" and realized that they would cost us 30% more. We thoroughly checked Danny's references and asked lots of questions. He passed all our screens.
Throughout the project, Danny was simply outstanding. His motivation to getting us up and running exceeded anything I've seen in decades. His integrity and commitment to meeting our genuine requirements was absolute. He made our problems his own, was communicative, amazingly responsive and considerate
