Solar Installation Process In California
Switching to solar power should feel simple – and with Current Home Solar, it is. Our step-by-step installation process is designed to make going solar in California easy, transparent, and stress-free.
STEP 1
Start with a Quick Quote
Getting started takes just a minute. Request your free solar quote to see if a solar panel system could be a good fit for your California home and energy goals. We’ll take a quick look at your roof type, electricity usage, and location to determine whether solar makes sense for you.
STEP 2
Personalized Energy & Roof Assessment
Next, one of our local solar specialists will reach out to review your household’s energy use and conduct a detailed roof assessment. This isn’t a sales call – it’s about finding the right fit for your home, your lifestyle, and your budget. We’ll identify how much sunlight your roof gets year-round and make sure your home is ready for installation.
STEP 3
Your Free In-Home Consultation
Once we confirm your home is a strong candidate, we’ll schedule a free, no-obligation consultation. During this visit, we’ll go over your questions about solar panel installation, equipment, and cost – all in one simple meeting. Before we arrive, our design team creates a custom solar system layout based on your roof, location, and energy patterns. Every California home is unique, and your solar setup will be too.
STEP 4
Review Your Custom Solar Plan
During your consultation, we’ll walk you through your system design and show your projected energy savings. Using advanced modeling tools, we evaluate roof orientation, shading, and available space to ensure the best performance. We’ll also explain the incentives available for solar installation in California, including:
- Federal Incentives: Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC): 30% savings through 2025
- State Incentives: California’s property tax exclusion
- Net Metering: Earn credits for extra energy sent back to the grid with net metering
We handle all the details – you just get the facts, clearly explained.

California Solar Installation Reviews
Rating
Elaina Crawford was great. She was very knowledgeable about the process. She answered all my questions that had me on the fence. To deal with someone so knowledgeable and so friendly. She made a lifelong friend.
Had a great experience with Devon Lannie! From the start he was super patient with me and my wife’s questions, and although he was diligent to make sure he followed up, I never felt like he was being pushy. He made sure to address my concerns, and took the time to help us find the solar solution that not only fit our budget but our future needs. He’s transparent and made it super easy for me to understand the process. At this point I’m waiting for the installation but I will be sure to follow up a month or so after they are installed. EDIT: The Solar System has been installed for about a month now. I just wanted to update as to how the experience went. As the permitting and install and inspection process progressed, Devon no longer needed to be involved (although he did follow up often to make sure our needs were being met) and I started corresponding with Micayla who was our project coordinator. What I expected would’ve been a stressful experience turned out to be extremely easy. Micayla communicated with me often, keeping me updated on the progress of our project. During periods of silence where I was tempted to reach out, she would text or call just to tell me not to worry all is going well. Above all however, she ensured that I only needed to stay home from work three times, for installation and inspection; and that only because we have a gated property. Anyways, the reason I bring that up is because she always made sure to ask ahead of time for my availability which is often not the norm for me. All said and done, i reccomend Devon and Micayla for your solar project. They made it super easy and stress free.
Fro start to finish Current Home was very professional Makayla was always quick to answer any questions we had and always kept us updated. A the personnel we dealt with was always professional and knowledgeable from sales to installation
KD did an excellent job in making the process painless. Very professional, and the most important thing we will be saving a lot of money each month on our electricity bill through installation of solar and battery. Thank you!
Was planning on some minor roof repair, and spoke with Gigi at Current Home to assist me with a quote to remove, reinstall, and go through a complete check of the system. Gigi was very prompt with e-mail responses, and was very patient with me as well. Very professional. Great asset to the team! Joseph
Gigi has done an excellent job coordinating the work with the service group and with the roofer. The roof conducted the inspection and found the solar panel frame was loose, and hey fixed.
I want to say our experience with Lila was great she came to our home explained everything in detail even had cofounder on the phone to also explain what size system would work for us. We have a 3 month old newborn and Lila was more than accommodating for us & our situation and really was personable, really nice, and friendly as she had children of her own as well.
Current Home has already installed2 of my homes. They are now doing a 3rd and maybe a 4th. Joseph has worked with me for every project and has been able to show great savings. He's very easy to understand and is very patient with me and my tenants
On 11/24/25, I had a service visit from Current home solar company. The technician Javier Macias was respectful and professional. He took care of the service and answered all my questions. Customer service staff Ms.Gigi Paez and Melissa have been honest, professional and respectful throughout this service. It was pleasure speaking to them.I am extremely happy with their service.
My wife and I met with Elaina Crawford. She was very polite and explained everything clearly. We are very happy and can’t wait to tell friends and family so they can sign up and get savings with her! The best!
KD.SANDERS DID AN AMAZING JOB, FRIENDLY HELPFULL AND HE IS THE GUY TO CALL FOR NEW COSTUMERS.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Solar Panels Increase Property Taxes in California?
No, they don’t. Many property owners have concerns about whether installing solar panels in California will increase their property taxes. However, the state mandates that when a property owner adds something valuable to the real property, such as a solar energy system, its assessed market value will be included in its base value for the year.
Fortunately, installing residential solar systems in California will not result in a higher tax assessment of the existing real property. As of March 2022, this law is in place through the end of 2024
Does California Buy Back Electricity from Solar Panels?
Yes – California residents can sell excess electricity. However, with the passing of NEM 3.0, this buy back program has changed significantly and has made battery back ups a great option to pair with solar panels.
