About CaliVolt Electrical
Built by Californians, for Californians.
We started CaliVolt because the solar industry got too good at selling and not good enough at installing. We're the company our parents would have wanted.
We exist because the industry needed a reset.
California has thousands of solar companies. Most are great at closing a deal. Fewer are great at installing, supporting, and standing behind the work for 25 years.
We built CaliVolt to be the long-term company — local crew, real warranty, honest math. Our owner answers the support line himself when it matters. There's no escalation queue.
If you want a salesperson, you have options. If you want a company that's still going to be here in 2040, you have us.

Why I'm doing this.
I'm Ronald Beardsley. I started CaliVolt because I watched too many California homeowners get sold systems that didn't match their roofs, didn't match their bills, and didn't match the financing they'd been pitched.
I've worked in California electrical contracting for over a decade. Solar is a natural extension — same code, same permitting, same customer base. The difference is that the solar industry attracted a lot of people who weren't electrical trades professionals first.
We're the company that does it the other way around: trades first, sales second. The math should sell itself.

Where we install.
We serve every major California metro from Los Angeles to the Bay Area. We don't subcontract to out-of-state crews. Every install is staffed by CaliVolt employees.
