Tesla Electric Inc

Tesla Electric Inc operates as an electrician in Austin, Texas. They install solar panels on rooftops and as ground arrays, add battery backup units, connect systems to existing electrical panels, and set up monitoring apps that track daily output. The business also manages site checks for shading and roof condition, runs conduit and wiring for detached garages or main houses, and coordinates with utilities on net metering.

Customers have brought them in for hybrid solar setups with storage on two-story homes, rooftop additions to older shingles, and ground mounts on rural lots where panel placement had to account for sun exposure. Crews handled the permitting steps and inspection scheduling, worked around steep roof angles without damage, kept mounting rails and wiring organized, and finished within the original time frames even when weather caused small shifts. After activation the systems produced steady power that showed up on the apps, and monthly electric bills dropped as expected.

They arrive on time each morning, explain inverter choices and placement decisions in plain terms, update homeowners on any timeline changes, and leave driveways and work areas clear at the end of each day. The listed hours run around the clock every day from the location at 500 E St Elmo Rd, and reviewers note straightforward pricing details plus quick answers to questions about settings after the systems went live.

Reviewers give them a 4.3 rating across 9 reviews, often mentioning steady communication, clean sites, reliable production numbers, and smooth handling of utility paperwork. DIRT Score 2.6 from 9 reviews on Finds.

“The staff completed our solar installation with very little disruption to our daily routine. We were adding panels to a detached garage along with the main house, so the wiring layout was a little more involved than standard projects. They explained the process carefully and coordinated inspections without needing constant reminders from us. The installation crew worked efficiently and seemed experienced with residential solar systems. One thing I noticed was how clean they kept the jobsite, especially around the electrical equipment and conduit runs. Since turning the system on, energy production has remained stable even during overcast days. The mobile monitoring app updates quickly and has been useful for tracking usage trends. Communication could have been slightly faster during the permitting stage, but overall they delivered exactly what they promised and the final system looks clean on the property.”

“I hired Tesla Solar Austin for a battery backup and solar panel installation after comparing several local companies. Their estimator explained the difference between string inverters and microinverters in a very practical way, which helped me feel comfortable moving forward. The installation team worked carefully around our older roof tiles and completed the project with very little disruption to our schedule. One thing I appreciated was how they managed the permitting process and utility paperwork without leaving us confused about next steps. The monitoring system has been simple to use and it is helpful seeing daily energy production. During the first month we already noticed our electricity usage from the grid dropping. The whole experiance felt organized from beginning to end. I would comfortably recommend them to homeowners looking for a reliable solar company that communicates clearly and follows through on timelines.”

“they installed a solar energy system on our two story house and the process moved smoother then expected. The crew showed up early most days and they explained what was happening during each phase of the installation. I appreciated how they checked the roof condition before mounting the panels because our shingles are older and I was worried about possible damage. The permits and utility coordination where handled by the staff which saved us alot of time. Since activation the system output has remained steady and the app tracking feature works well enough for daily monitoring. We had one question about inverter settings after installation and they responded within the same afternoon. Overall the service felt professional without being over complicated and the pricing seemed fair compared with other estimates we recieved around the area.”

“I had a good experiance working with the staff during our rooftop solar panel installation. They explained the inverter setup, net metering paperwork, and expected energy production in a way that made sense without overcomplicating things. The crew arrived on time each morning and kept the work area organized while installing the mounting rails and panels. Our home has a steep roof angle, so I expected delays, but they adjusted the plan quickly and still completed the system in the estimated timeframe. Since the installation, our monthly electric bill has gone down steadily and the monitoring app has been reliable. There was one small delay waiting for final inspection approval, but they kept me updated through the process. Overall, the experience felt professional and efficient, and I would suggest them to anyone considering a residential solar setup for long term savings.”

“The staff handled our ground-mounted solar array project with steady communication and clear scheduling from start to finish. We live on a rural property where shading and panel placement mattered alot, so they spent extra time checking sun exposure before beginning the installation. The crew explained how the microinverters would work with our existing electrical panel and answered every question without rushing. During installation they respected the property and cleaned up materials every evening before leaving. The whole process took about two weeks including permits and inspection, which matched the estimate they gave us in the beginning. Since the system was activated, production numbers have stayed close to what they projected. We have noticed lower utility costs already. It wasnt a flashy experience, but it was organized and dependable, which honestly mattered more to us when choosing a solar contractor.”

“The team did a rooftop solar installation for our home in late spring. I found them reliable in communication and straightforward with the pricing structure. The design phase included a shading analysis, which helped us understand how much energy production we could expect. On the day of installation, they arrived on time, worked steadily, and by the afternoon the panels were mounted and wiring complete. After inspection, the system went live without any issues. It’s been steady since then, and our monitoring app shows daily production that matches what they estimated. I’d use them again without hesitation.”

“I used Tesla Solar Austin for a residential rooftop solar project last fall. Their team handled the site inspection, permitting, and utility approval process in a way that kept everything moving without much confusion. The installers explained the photovoltaic panel placement and why certain sections of the roof would produce better output based on shading patterns. During installation they kept communication steady and updated us whenever timelines shifted slightly because of weather. The battery backup system was integrated cleanly with our existing setup and the final walkthrough covered all the monitoring features clearly. Since activation, the monthly power bill has stayed lower and system production has been close to the original estimate. I also appreciated that they checked in after installation to make sure the inverter readings looked normal. The whole process felt reliable and organized from beginning to end.”

“Our experience with the staff was pretty solid overall. They installed a hybrid solar system with battery storage at our home, and the planning process was detailed enough that we felt informed the whole time. One thing that stood out was how patient they were while discussing panel orientation and expected efficiency during cloudy months. The installers worked carefully around our landscaping and left the driveway clean every evening before heading out. There were a couple spelling mistakes in the paperwork packet, but everything important was still clear enough to understand. After the system was turned on, our electric bill dropped more than we expected for the first few months. The monitoring software has also been consistant without many interruptions. If someone is considering solar installation for a larger family home, these guys seem capable of handling more complicated setups without making the process stressful.”
