This review is for SunMade Energy in Fresno. For those who don't prefer reading lengthy reviews, I will begin by saying that I recently contracted with SunMade for the purchase and installation of my new solar system. I am completely happy with the installed system. I highly recommend SunMade Energy. I had three other companies give me estimates for a system for my home. SunMade was the last provider that I contacted. They were not the least expensive, nor were they the most expensive. They did give me a bid for a system that has the greatest output potential of all who provided bids. They were

From start to finish had a great experience. Representative was very informative broke the process down in a way that made it easy to understand. I love that they made sure I would be comfortable with the placement of the panels and they look good on the roof. Thank you for such a wonderful experience. Everyone one at sun made is very friendly and so helpful.

The service from the Sunmade Energy team was great. From the technician that walked me through what was going to happen and an estimated timeline. The drone photos of where the panels would be located was a plus, to see how the process all comes together. They took care of all the permits, it was great not to be stressed out about anything. The day of the panel installation was exciting, their team of technicians came and it was great to see all the teamwork happening. The whole installation was one day and a total of 31 panels were installed. All the wiring and panel boxes were hidden and painted

Sunmade did a great job. We were moved to an earlier date for the installation which went very well. The sales representative came to our house a second time to present to my wife. They followed up on the installation and have made sure everything was perfect. I recommend Sunmade highly.
