Solar and roofing company

AMECO Solar & Roofing

[edit ]

AMECO, also known as AMECO Solar & Roofing, is an American provider of consolidated renewable energy solutions for residential and commercial sectors. The company was founded in 1974 and is headquartered in Somerset Blvd, Paramount, California.

Since its inception, the company has been providing solar roofing, installation, and battery storage solutions to its customers in both sectors. Over time, the company has diversified its portfolio. It currently provides solar electric, backup batteries, EV chargers, and roofing and solar panel installation. AMECO is one of the first companies in California to offer the Solar integrated roof from TESLA.

The company has been operational since the 1970s, with a career spanning 51 years. Latest data indicates it has installed over 70,000 solar panels and serviced more than 5,600 homes in California. On the commercial front, the company has been instrumental in helping the Orange County Health Agency-funded Wellness Center, retirement communities in Leisure World, and California Aquatic Therapy and Wellness Center go solar.

Currently, AMECO is a well-reviewed solar service provider in California. On SolarReviews, the company has over 120 customer reviews with an average rating of roughly 4.5, and on Yelp it has more than 100 reviews with an average rating of about 4.5 stars, indicating generally positive customer feedback across multiple independent review platforms.

History

[edit ]

Back in 1974, AMECO began its journey as Link (& Sun) Solar. However, the company was quickly renamed AMECO. Since then, the company has built its reputation by providing customized end-to-end service to its customers and through proactive participation in California’s solar programs.

In 1980, it joined CALSEIA, a private organization dedicated to the widespread adoption of solar. Within 5 years, the company also became one of the first solar contractors to earn a license from the State License Board and therefore, one of the first few solar panel installers in Southern California.

The company’s mission to drive holistic solar power adoption in the community it serves is exemplified through its notable participation in community outreach programs.

In the past, AMECO has taken part in educational programs such as Solar Grand Prix and others.

Services

[edit ]

AMECO takes a customer-centric approach towards establishing a clean, safe, and renewable future in California. It offers end-to-end solar, roofing, and battery backup solutions.

The company’s current services include solar panel design and installation, permitting and licensing, battery back-up integration, roof and panel maintenance, repairs, and customer awareness.

It has been instrumental in offering definitive roofing solutions like the Cool Roof Shingles Collection that provides cooling without limiting color options. In addition, the team at AMECO also offers flat roof maintenance and replacement, and tile roof replacement and repairs.

Customized solar energy panels, battery installation, and charging stations for electric vehicles comprise its other line of service.

Customers praise the company’s free-to-use and zero-commitment solar panel cost calculator and virtual consultation.

The company has also partnered with Hover to launch a 3D Home Visualizer that allows customers to visualize different types of roofing or solar installations for off-plan projects.

AMECO’s services are backed by a 40-year warranty on solar equipment, a 25-year power warranty, and a 10-year workmanship guarantee on the installation to its residential customers. The service is inclusive of regulatory compliance management that meets local building codes and requirements.

Per data on the company website, AMECO has helped customers save 568ドル on average on their utility bills and ensured customers secure a 30-60% rebate on installation charges.

Leadership

[edit ]

Industry veteran Patrick Redgate has helmed the company since it was founded, serving as a longstanding President and CEO. Redgate has been instrumental in consolidating the company’s growth over the years. He represented the company at CALSEIA and later served the non-profit as an elected member of the board.

Tom Amitay serves as the current CEO. Other team members include Thomas Vitale as the Sales Manager, and Idan Shimony as the General Manager.

Awards & Recognition

[edit ]

AMECO has received multiple awards and recognitions over its years of operation. It won its first Super Service Award in 2010, followed by three consecutive wins in 2011, 2012, and 2013. The company was also named REC Installer of the Year, two years in a row.
