Pacific Solar

Pacific Solar handles residential and commercial solar work out of Clovis and serves the Fresno area as a family business that has operated since 1982. They install home and business systems along with batteries, generators, EV chargers, and ground mounts using their own crew. The company offers a written guarantee on energy savings and works from assessments of utility bills and property needs to size jobs right. They cover commercial projects like carports and thermal drone scans as part of full service in the Central Valley.

Customers call on them for panel installs on homes and shops, battery additions to existing setups, system cleanings on tile roofs, and inspections that produce certification reports for sales or maintenance. Reviews mention fixes such as correcting panel placement on north and south facing roofs at no extra charge after owner Michael stepped in. Other jobs include large commercial arrays completed on tight deadlines, diagnostic checks for older systems, and battery storage tied into current solar. People note drops in PG&E bills after these installs along with clean finishes where wiring stays hidden in attics.

The crew shows up on schedule for both small residential calls and bigger commercial work across Clovis, Fresno, and nearby spots like Madera. Reviewers point to quick responses from staff including Jose, Phil Ortiz, Joseph DeLeon, and Daniel, with projects often wrapping in six weeks or less and under the planned budget. Communication stays steady from first quote through final inspection, and they handle paperwork and city approvals without delays. Service runs during normal business hours with same-day or next-day options for cleanings and checks when needed.

“Everything was going fine until panels got installed on my shop. Had multiple conversations with Jose about how panels would be installed. (My shop roof is South and North facing) panels were supposed to be installed South side as normal, then reverse mount on North. Panels ended up being installed flat on both sides of roof. ( having several North facing panels) after speaking with Jose he said it was never put in the contract to put a reverse mount on North panels. The owner, Michael, got involved and personally reached out to me to rectify the situation. Everything was corrected at no additional cost within 48 hours. To me, an owner taking responsibility and saying the buck stops with him means alot. I would definitely recommend this company with an owner that cares like that.”

“Pacific Solar gave our solar panels an excellent cleaning! Very careful on our tile roof which resulted in zero roof issues. Will be using them from now on.”

“Absolute best experience imaginable. From the very first conversation they answered every single question clearly and thoroughly. They walked us through every step of the process so we always knew exactly what was happening and what came next. They showed up exactly when they said they would, stayed on schedule, and still came in under budget. We had one small hiccup, and it was fully rectified in less than 24 hours—no drama, just immediate ownership and a clean fix. If you’re thinking about taking the dive, stop hesitating. Highly, highly recommend.”

“Joaquin and his team did a professional job inspecting our solar system! Very knowledgeable and prompt, showed up early and got started right away. Was thorough, took pictures, and the report told us everything we needed to know. Will be using him again in the future. I recommend him to others”

“I would highly recommend Pacific Solar. Working with Jose and Dave was a pleasure from start to finish. I always seem to have more questions than most, and Jose was always gracious enough to answer all of them. So far, we are seeing a shocking difference in our PG&E bill for the better!”

“Pacific Solar has been so easy to work with! They delivered on everything promised. Very timely and reliable. I would recommend them for solar needs and battery needs to anyone who is interested”

“Pacific Solar is a great solar company to work with and I highly recommend them. They installed a large carport with 112 panels at our clinic (Madera Veterinary Center). The whole system looks great and we have received several comments about how nice the whole structure looks. We had a very strict deadline and they completed the project on time. Daniel helped us through every step of the process and was incredibly responsive to our needs. I liked Pacific Solar so much I had them install solar panel at my house! Quality work and great customer service.”

“We had an excellent experience working with Jose Mendez at Pacific Solar. From start to finish, Jose was patient, professional, and quick to answer any questions. He clearly explained the process, proposal, and all our options. What impressed us most was Jose’s honesty. When we asked for two Tesla batteries, he reviewed our energy use and explained it would be more than we needed. Using his analysis tools, he helped us design the right-sized system and storage plan, something other companies didn’t take the time to do. The installation crew was professional, respectful of our home, and finished the job efficiently. We were concerned about completing the project in time to qualify for the federal tax credit, but Jose and his team not only met the deadline, but they also finished several weeks early. After meeting with several providers, we’re confident we made the right choice with Pacific Solar. Great service, communication, and results. Thank you Jose, Charlie, and team for a successful project completion. Highly recommend!”

“We are trying to sell a large ranch with 80 panels of solar. Our original Solar company went out of business. José came out promptly and worked efficiently to inspect all of our solar to provide us with a certification of diagnostics that I could show when I sell my home. We are very satisfied with an easy appointment to get and we got great customer service.. You can’t go wrong hiring this company. Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Pacific Solar installed battery backup storage to my existing solar system and I could not be more pleased with the outcome! Project Manager Joseph DeLeon is very knowledgeable in all things related to renewable energy and makes the technical details easy to understand to enable the right decision. His availability and communication were great from beginning to end. The installation crew were very skillful and took great pride to make sure the new system was installed properly and looked clean and professional. The entire process went smoothly and I highly recommend the team at Pacific Solar!”

“Pacific solar just finalized inspection with the city Clovis. Everything went smooth. Installation team showed up on time, installed 12 panels on my roof and a battery in the garage. installation was professional, no wires or conduits visible on the outside of the house or the roof. All was done in the attic. Crew cleaned up any installation debis. Start to finish took about 6 weeks. I worked with Phil Ortiz on the paper work/ contract portion of the project and Andrew and Enrique and his crew on the installation. Phil and his team were very responsive and punctual. Pacific solar is a locally owned business. Pacific solar estimate beat the big solar companies estimates by at least a few thousands with added perks too!! top notch equipment and top rated solar panels. I am a retired engineer and I highly recommend Pacific Solar - hands down!!!”

“Great company to work with. The team on our project was professional, kind, knowledgeable, and efficient. They answered all of our questions and more. I highly recommend them to work with.”

“Our Energy Consultant was very helpful. From the initial appointment, he came ready with a complete proposal, and was always available to answered all our questions. Our Consultant-Philip Ortiz, took his time and was very patient in walking my husband and I, through the entire process, from the beginning through the end (closing appointment).”

“Recently had the pleasure of working with Project Manager Joseph and his team from Pacific Solar. They each played an intricate role in assisting us with adding on additional solar panels to our current solar system along with 2 backup batteries. Joseph was detailed and took the time to explain the entire process before, during and after installation. His install team was amazing. They were respectful of our time and were able to assist me with additional questions. Since the add on of our additional panels and backup batteries, we have seen a significant decline in our electrical bill. I would 100% use Joseph and his team again for any future services.”

“It was an easy process from start to finish. On the day of installation, they were here on time and set the system up exactly like i had asked, even thou it took more time to run the wires like i wanted. Their guys were professionals the entire time and even removed an 'old-mini' satellite dish. I have 8.4kw system.”

“Pacific Solar has probably the best service when it comes to Solar. When called Mike was able to get me an appointment within a few days for my cleaning. I’ve noticed such a difference with my panels cleaned. About 3.5 more KW Per day. Thanks Pacific Solar! I’ll definitely be calling you back.”

“Their communication is great from beginning to end. The installation team did a great job being mindful of the look of the installation. I had one minor issue and they were prompt in making the repair. My solar system is working great thanks to Pacific Solar”

“Just had 32 panels and 2 batteries installed and everything went accordingly. Every employee that I encountered was polite and respectful to our residence. I appreciate Pacific Solar and staff for getting us up and running in about a day and a half. Perfect experience thus far.”

“We recently had the pleasure of working with Phil from Pacific Solar, and he truly exceeded our expectations. From start to finish, Phil was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive. He took the time to answer all our questions, explained the entire process clearly, and made sure every detail of the installation was handled with care. The quality of work was outstanding, and everything was completed on time and with zero surprises. Phil's dedication to customer satisfaction and his honest, straightforward approach made the entire experience stress-free. We couldn’t be happier with our decision to go solar — thanks to Phil and the team at Pacific Solar. Highly recommend!”

“Choosing Pacific Solar was hands down the best decision I made for my home! From the first chat with their solar team, I felt like they truly cared about my needs and understood my concerns. They walked me through the entire process, explaining everything in a way that made sense even to a solar newbie like me. The installation went smoothly, and now I'm loving seeing my energy bills shrink. If you're in Fresno and thinking about going solar, do yourself a favor and go with Pacific Solar. You won't regret it!”
