Why Choose Our Madera Solar Company
Sun Exposure Matters
Madera's plentiful sunshine makes it an excellent location for solar energy, and our panels are built to perform efficiently even in high temperatures. Shade from trees or nearby structures can affect performance, but our team will design the optimal solar panel layout for your home.
Roof Condition & Orientation
Your roof should be in good condition. South-facing slopes at a 15 to 40 degree pitch maximize production in the Central Valley, though we can install high-performing systems on a variety of roof types and slopes. Asphalt shingle, metal, and concrete tile all work well; wood shake and certain flat roofs need extra evaluation.
Check Your Electrical Panel
Many older homes in the area have 100-amp panels that need upgrading to 200 amps before solar can be safely installed, since the National Electrical Code requires solar to connect through a dedicated circuit. We assess this during your consultation so there are no surprises later.
Roofing And Solar Together
We evaluate your roof's load capacity, perform any necessary structural improvements, and prepare your roofing platform for seamless solar integration. If your roof needs replacement within the next ten years, coordinating both projects at once means one mobilization instead of two, a single permitting process, and unified warranty coverage across both systems.
Long-Term Solar Savings
Solar panels offer the best return when you plan to stay in your home for at least two years. The longer you stay, the more you save on electricity bills.
Certified & Accredited
SunMade® is the Central Valley's first and only Diamond Certified roofing, solar, and electrical contractor, five years running, with a 98% Customer Loyalty and 100% Helpful Expertise rating. We are also CSLB triple certified, a Tesla Energy certified installer, GAF and Owens Corning certified, a FranklinWH certified installer, a member of the National Roofing Contractors Association, BBB accredited, and Forbes recommended.
OUR SERVICES
Everything Our Madera Solar Company Does for Your Home
Solar is where most Madera homeowners start, but your roof, your storage, and your system’s long-term performance matter just as much. Because we are licensed for solar, roofing, and electrical work, one team handles all of it.
Solar Installation
Slash your energy bills, increase your home's value, and secure long-term savings. We design a system tailored to your Madera home's unique needs, then handle everything in-house from custom design and permitting through installation and ongoing support. Most projects are completed within four to eight weeks depending on permits and inspections, and every install is covered by our 25-year Solar Shield Warranty.

Home Battery Backup
Under California's NEM 3.0 policy, the value of solar exported to the grid dropped significantly, which means storing your own power is now where the savings live. Charge your battery during the day, then use that energy during peak rate hours instead of buying it back from the utility. You also stay powered through outages automatically, which matters during wildfire-related shutoffs. We are a certified installer for Tesla Powerwall 3, Enphase IQ Batteries, and FranklinWH whole-home backup.

Roofing
Your roof protects everything underneath it, so a replacement should give you decades of confidence, not just new shingles. From the first inspection to the final nail, our own crews handle every detail with professionalism and transparency, and our certifications with Owens Corning and GAF let us offer extended manufacturer warranties covering materials and labor for up to 50 years. We also provide professional roof repair across Madera and Fresno, fixing small issues before they become costly ones.

Maintenance & Repairs
Protect the investment you have already made. Dust, pollen, bird droppings, and Central Valley air pollution can reduce panel efficiency by up to 25%, so we clean panels using safe, non-abrasive methods and spot-free deionized water. Our certified technicians repair all major solar brands including Enphase, SolarEdge, and Tesla, whether or not we installed your system, and our in-house crews handle roof repairs from emergency leaks to long-term wear.
