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.

Joseph Munoz was very informative and made the experience of signing up for solar panels very pleasant. Highly recommend his services.
I had the best solar rep. Elaina was highly informative and made me feel comfortable moving forward with solar. I never considered my Edison bills to be too high, until the rates kept going up. Elaina presented a solution that is going to put thousands of dollars back in my pocket. Amish was my project coordinator, and was very kind and patient through the process. The installation came out great and I love my Tesla power walls. Great job all around. If you’re looking for a reliable solar company, current home is the best!
It went smoothly and easily with no problems whatsoever Duke and Amiah were amazing in helping me keeping me updated with the process and the contractors that did the install were very professional very quick thanks again

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.
