Brian Rice

Local Roots, Extraordinary Service

Helios Solar Solutions is a locally-owned and operated solar company in Bakersfield, CA. Following in his father’s 35 years of work in the construction industry, Brian worked alongside his father, gaining experience in interior and exterior plastering, and after high school graduation, he began his 25 year career of building and designing custom homes in Bakersfield, including the Grand Island community. His father passed down the tradition to always produce excellent workmanship, taught Brian to provide the highest quality product, and to always leave each job cleaner than he found it.

Brian applied that standard of excellence to his building, and his motto is: “If it’s not good enough for my house, it’s not good enough for yours.” He engages in all steps of construction, including framing, roofing, electrical wiring, and HVACs.

In 2020, California began requiring solar panels on new homes.

If it's not good enough for my house, it's not good enough for yours.

Since electrical wiring was a part of each custom home build he completed, Brian decided that with his knowledge and experience, he could continue to offer customers high quality solar service. He started Helios Solar Solutions. “Solutions” refers to how comprehensive his work is: whereas most solar companies focus on generating energy, Brian also ensures that the energy produced is conserved. He installs efficient HVACs, energy–saving windows, insulation, and other devices to conserve energy. Solar systems typically last 25–30 years, so before installing the panels, Brian ensures the roof is in good condition. If it is weak, he repairs or replaces it, providing the best experience for his clients. His track record testifies to the high quality of his work and the high standard he requires his employees to meet. Brian is committed to exceeding his clients’ expectations and continuing his tradition of excellent workmanship.
