Reviews frequently note clear communication throughout design and permitting, with patient explanations of options and utility requirements. Customers mention punctual crews, neat workmanship, and projects finished on the expected schedule. Several highlight that installations are completed by the company’s own team rather than outsourced. Feedback also points to help navigating PG&E steps and smooth approval processes.

I recently had solar panels installed by Ally, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very beginning, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. They took the time to walk me through the whole process, answered all of my questions, and made sure I understood how everything works before moving forward.

The installation went smoothly and was completed efficiently. The crew arrived on time, worked hard, and kept everything clean and organized throughout the project. You could tell they really care about the quality of their work and about making sure the customer is satisfied.

What impressed me the most was their attention to detail and communication. They kept me informed every step of the way and made the entire process stress-free. The system looks great, and I’m excited to start seeing the benefits of solar.

I highly recommend Ally to anyone considering solar. If you’re looking for a reliable company that delivers excellent service and high-quality work, Ally is definitely the way to go.

Ally Electrical & Solar is a rare find--a small family-owned business with honesty, integrity, and meticulous attention to detail. Owners Nur and Metin (husband and wife) helped us design our residential solar system, recommended panel brands, sizing, and placement,as well as navigating us through the maze of PG&E and local requirements. Their installers are their own employees-- no "outsourcing" installations to third-party vendors! Many of their staff have been with them for decades, which says everything about how dedicated Nur and Metin are to caring for both their customers and their staff. We contacted almost a dozen solar companies before selecting Ally and are so happy we did. They are first-class people and a pleasure to work with. And of course, our system is working perfectly and they continue to be available to answer questions. Our best contractor experience in 48 years of home ownership.

Emre Yurtsever on Ally Electric And Solar Inc

Ally Electric And Solar installed our solar system just before NEM2.0 ended (yes, this is a long due review). It was a pretty busy time for solar companies, as you may guess. Many people wanted to complete their solar projects before the deadlines hit. Ally followed all the steps required to prepare, submit the project and complete the approval process. The installation of solar array was pretty smooth, as the team was professional, knowledgeable and on-time. Very happy with the service we received from Ally and I would highly recommend them for any solar and electrical projects.

Ally Solar and Electric recently installed my solar system with a battery backup, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to detail. They took the time to explain the process clearly, answered all my questions, and delivered exactly what they promised. The installation was completed on schedule, the workmanship was excellent, and they left everything neat and tidy. I now have a reliable solar system with battery storage that gives me peace of mind, and I highly recommend Ally Solar and Electric to anyone considering solar.

I had Ally install a solar 14kW+ solar panel system on my roof. Job included an upgrade to the main electrical panel, as well as new electrical wiring to some of the rooms as well.

Timely communication, friendly but professional staff, and no extra/unforeseen costs. Metin and his staff are unique in that. Highly recommended.
