Revolving Power Solar vs Hagan Electric

It depends on your home's electrical system. If you have a modern panel with available capacity and straightforward wiring, a newer contractor can handle the installation competently. However, if your home has an older panel, questionable wiring, or capacity issues that require troubleshooting, Hagan Electric's decades of experience diagnosing and solving electrical problems in older Sacramento homes becomes directly relevant. The workers comp difference matters regardless of project complexity.

If a worker is injured on your property, your homeowner's insurance may become the primary coverage, potentially leading to a claim on your policy that could affect your rates. In some scenarios, you could face direct liability. Before hiring any contractor without workers comp, call your insurance agent to understand your specific exposure and whether your policy provides coverage. This is not a theoretical concern—contractor injuries do occur.

Specialization can mean focused expertise, but Hagan Electric also performs EV charger installations and has the advantage of 26 years handling electrical integration challenges. The key question is whether Revolving Power Solar's focus translates to better outcomes for your specific project, which their competitive pricing and customer feedback suggests may be true for straightforward installations. However, their one year in business means limited track record when complications arise.

You can require it, but the contractor would need to purchase the policy, which takes time and adds to their costs. Ask them directly if they're willing to obtain coverage before starting your project. If they're unwilling or unable to secure it quickly, you're back to deciding whether to accept the liability risk or choose a contractor who already carries coverage like Hagan Electric.
