The Whole Truth
No door-knockers. No commission-hungry reps. No hidden fees. Here's exactly how we work and why.
The solar industry has a dirty secret: a huge portion of what you pay goes directly to sales rep commissions, often $5,000 to $15,000 per deal. That money doesn't add a single panel to your roof. It goes to the person who showed up at your door.
We eliminated that entirely. No door-knockers. No commissioned reps. No call centers. When you remove those costs from the equation, we can offer prices that no sales-rep-driven company can match, while still doing better quality work.
Every dollar you save on commissions stays in your pocket. That's how solar should work.
We evaluated every major home battery on the market before committing to a single product line. Tesla Powerwall 3 won on every metric that matters: capacity, reliability, software, warranty, and integration with solar.
The Powerwall 3 is the first home battery to include the solar inverter built in, eliminating a separate component, reducing installation cost, and simplifying the entire system. One unit handles everything.
We're a Tesla Certified Installer, which means our technicians are trained and certified directly by Tesla. That certification also gives our customers access to warranty support that non-certified installers can't offer.
And because we install more Powerwall units than almost any other contractor in California, we can pass those volume economics directly to you: the lowest installed price, period.
Semper Cares Program
PayLessForSolar was founded by a veteran. Serving those who served is not a marketing line. It's woven into the company's DNA.
Through the Semper Cares program, we provide special pricing, priority scheduling, and dedicated support for active duty military, veterans, and their families. We also hire veterans wherever possible, because the discipline and integrity that define military service are exactly the values we want on every job site.
If you served, we want to serve you back.
