Unique Solar Pro’s able to work with all types of unique Roof structures.
Our sales rep Kerrie provided good information for our specific needs.
We were able to select the brand of panels we wanted and service level.
They are also a roofing company so could deal with our unique roof needs situation.
Coordinating of details from sales to installation was very good flow back-and-forth from Mei, our project coordinator.
We have batteries on site and will sell back to PG&E each month.
The crew that did the installation was very respectful and efficient to us & our property.
The plan we selected will provide $avings every month!
We've talked to many Solar companies over the years, but Solar Sesame was the right fit and likely could be a good fit for you too! Tell them Camella sent ya! Then you can tell PG&E off!

We had a smooth experience with SolarSesame from start to finish. Every team that came to our home from the initial visit by the Sales team till the final visit for activating the solar system were all very professional and knowledgeable.

We have had concerns with installing Solar for a long time as we have tiled roof. We had engaged with couple of other vendors in previous years but were not convinced that the roof would be taken care of, and hence we did not go with them. The SolarSesame team explained us in great detail how the installation will go and addressed all our concerns in the first two meetings. Later, they also kept up their promise by replacing the tiles that broke during installation.

The team was always on time for every visit. The team coordinator Mei has been great at keeping us informed at every step and clarifying our questions diligently. We are very satisfied with the work done by SolarSesame team.

Ahmed Awad on SolarSesame

Working with SolarSesame turned out to be a lot easier than we expected. The timeline was one of the biggest surprises we reached PTO in just 29 days, which felt incredibly fast compared to what we’d heard from others. The installation team was respectful of our home, worked efficiently, and made sure everything was set up properly. We also decided to go with the Tesla Powerwall 3, and it’s been great having that extra reliability and backup.
During the consultation phase, we appreciated how thorough everything was explained. The Sales Consultant walked us through the numbers, system options, and what the next steps would look like. It felt transparent and straightforward, which made us comfortable moving forward.

Communication throughout the project was consistent and professional. Our Project Manager coordinated permits, HOA approvals, and the PG&E paperwork, and kept us updated without us having to ask. The whole experience felt organized and well managed from start to finish. Overall, we’re very happy with how everything turned out.

We had a really great experience with SolarSesame from start to finish. What stood out first was how quickly everything moved, from signing to PTO took just 29 days, which honestly surprised us. The installation team was professional, on time, and left everything looking clean and well done. We’re already enjoying our new Tesla Powerwall 3 and love being able to track everything through the app.
The consultation process was also smooth and informative. Our Sales Consultant took the time to explain the system design, expected savings, and what to realistically expect throughout the process. There was no pressure, just clear answers that helped us feel comfortable making the decision.
Communication throughout the project was consistent and reassuring. We were assigned a Project Manager who handled permits, HOA approvals, and the PG&E application, and kept us updated at every stage. Anytime we had a question, we received a quick response. Overall, the entire process felt organized, transparent, and much less stressful than we anticipated.

I had an amazing experience with SolarSesame! The entire process was smooth, fast, and incredibly professional. I took advantage of their Instant Credit Promotion and was able to receive my 30% Federal Solar Tax Credit instantly, no waiting for the next tax season. That alone made the decision a no-brainer!

The installation was completed quickly, efficiently, and with impressive attention to detail. The crew showed up on time, handled everything with care, and left my home spotless. My system is running perfectly, and I’m already seeing the savings on my electric bill by at least $100.

If you’re thinking about going solar, I highly recommend SolarSesame. Great service, transparent communication, and real savings. Couldn’t be happier with my experience!
