Solar Energy System reviews in Sacramento, California

These Ilum Solar folks were fantastic! Quite reasonable on price with outstanding quality of work and incredible customer service. They were thorough, professional, and communicative. We now have a wonderful solar photovoltaic system with seemingly magical battery backup. We are very happy customers and give Ilum Solar our highest recommendation!

Absolutely fantastic company. I rarely write reviews unless it's truly warranted; and, in in this case, it definitely is with Ilum.

I reached out to Ilum and Robert Dean got back to me in a matter of minutes. I'd consider myself someone who has enough knowledge to be dangerous when it comes to solar... I have had many companies quote me a system setup over the years. Additionally, I had been doing copious research on DIY and wholesale kits, as I couldn't fathom paying the typical high markup that most of the big name solar companies charge for on the system array let alone the install.

Not only did Robert answer all of my questions about building an array (pros and cons of certain manufacturers, inverter vs. micro-inverters, installation time-frames, etc.), he also had a great referral who was competitive in their offering for a specific array setup I was looking for. I had a 6.9 KW system delivered to my house in no time (Robert even offered to have it delivered to their warehouse in case I didn't want it to take up space in the garage - talk about great service!).

Shortly thereafter, the Ilum crew came to install it - which - literally took 1.5 days. That was unreal! The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and most importantly, didn't cut any corners. My dog, Bruno, even became their best friend when I would come out to check-in with the crew throughout the day.

Robert kept me well-informed on the permit process and all of the next steps from beginning to end. They even offered to paint the piping conduit the trim color of my house at no charge. Impressive, to say the least.

It's rare to find a solar company that is as open and honest as Ilum is. I am incredibly please by the price, quality, and speed in which they operate. You can tell the whole team takes pride in what they do and the work shows.

I'm a customer for life and will be referring my family and friends to the Ilum team.

Thanks so very much, again, Robert and crew!

We had a great experience with Ilum Solar. The installation was fast and the system looks great, really professional job. I went out for 5 quotes from companies here in Sacramento and Tyler Thomason's quote was the most professionally formatted and had the best $/kWh price.

I originally was going to go with a different solar company. However, they were taking 3 months to have an install completed and I needed this done asap. I got in contact with Ben at Ilum Solar and said they could start the project asap. Thanks to him and his company I was able to have my solar installed in time to meet the deadline. Thank you Ben for all of your help with this project! Looking forward to working with your company on our upcoming projects!

Recently had a solar job installed at my house by the Ilum solar team. Very easy process when it comes to picking the solar system. Pretty much just needed an inspection of my roof and my previous PG& E bills. Had a new roof and some electrical upgrades done to my breaker panel as well. Very convenient to get it all done with one company. Would highly recommend to anyone looking at getting solar.

Ilum Solar was professional and easy to work with. The team communicated well, stayed on schedule, and completed the installation efficiently. Overall, a smooth process and we’re very happy with the results.

This is a small, family owned business. Kevin, the owner, is very professional and his crew is very friendly and courteous. If you are looking for shade in your backyard and solar at the same time, this is the perfect solution. The price is very competitive with roof-top solar, which is unbelievable, and the structure looks great too. I would absolutely recommend solar power patios to other customers.
