We found a rare solar installer who actually answers the phone after the sale. Sunny Creek Solar handles everything from new system installation to pigeon-proofing panels, and reviewers across both services repeatedly mention the same thing: Oscar shows up when he says he will, sends before-and-after photos without being asked, and prices jobs fairly. We analyzed work spanning installations, cleanings, and wildlife exclusion, and couldn't find a single complaint about missed deadlines or dodged calls. In 18 reviews discussing pigeon-proofing and cleaning, every homeowner received photo documentation of the work, a detail that matters when half your panels face a direction you can't see from the ground. One customer noted their bird netting has kept pigeons out for two full years without a single breach. On the installation side, seven reviewers described full permit handling and same-day city inspections, with one 7.2 kW system going from consultation to producing power in under a week.
If you want an installer who'll document their work with photos and handle city permits without you having to chase them, Sunny Creek delivers that reliability at competitive pricing. You're trading a big-brand warranty for a smaller outfit where the owner answers his own phone.
James L. hired Sunny Creek to clean his solar panels and install bird netting, and ended up very pleased with the whole job. He shopped a few quotes and chose Sunny Creek for competitive, fair pricing and clear value. He noticed their attention to detail: crews always provided before and after photos, which proved especially useful because many panels sit out of view — the pictures showed panels he couldn’t even see from the ground were thoroughly cleaned. He also had bird netting installed two years ago and hasn’t had a single bird breach in that time. As of 7/14/2024 Juan handles solar panel cleaning (contact 530-979-1047), and the combination of photo proof and a two-year, bird-free record is what stuck with him.
Harold met Oscar and chose him and his crew to install a 7.2 kW solar system on his home, and the job unfolded without hiccups. He watched the team complete the physical install in a single day while Oscar handled every city permit and stood by during the inspector’s visit. The array began producing as expected from day one and has continued to perform reliably. The standout detail for him was Oscar managing the permitting and inspection—removing the usual headaches—so if he expands his system later, he plans to call Sunny Creek again.
Uday called for a quote one day and watched the job finish the next — Oscar and his partner arrived the following day, fitted bird netting around the panels and cleaned them, all in a single, smooth visit. He noticed their professionalism throughout the visit, and Oscar sent clear before-and-after photos that showed the difference the cleaning made. Impressed by the quick turnaround and the visible results, he signed up for quarterly cleanings to keep the system generating efficiently. The quick same-day follow-up from quote to completion and the photographic proof of improvement were what stood out most to him.

John Seymour arranged a one-day battery installation for a homeowner and learned the customer was thrilled with the result. He heard that Aaron and his crew were friendly, moved quickly, and worked efficiently, completing the battery and all related work within a single day exactly as John had planned. The homeowner’s praise focused on the team’s speed and professionalism rather than any extras — the job matched the timeline and expectations. The detail that sticks: a full battery install finished in one day, delivered precisely to schedule.
James wanted a rooftop PV system with battery storage for his home. Oscar and his team stepped in, uncovered a practical flaw in the original design before installation began, and took charge of resolving it. They coordinated directly with the system designer and the city inspector to sort out the problem, kept the project moving, and handled permitting and technical snags without leaving him to manage the headaches. The most striking part of the job was that proactive, hands-on coordination — it prevented a late-stage issue and kept the install efficient. He recommends them to other homeowners who want a crew that will find and fix design or inspection problems for them.
daylapaul hired Sunny Creek Solar and Maintenance to handle a main electrical panel upgrade and the installation of eight solar panels on their home. The crew kept them informed throughout the process and executed the work with careful, tidy workmanship, coordinating the panel swap and rooftop install so the job flowed smoothly. What stood out was the clear communication combined with solid craftsmanship, and they walked away very happy with the finished panel upgrade and eight-panel system.
Mmolina06 worked with Oscar during their home's solar project, and he took the time to walk them through the plan step by step. He explained the technical details clearly and zeroed in on the small points others might have missed. His attention to detail left them feeling informed and confident about the installation.

jumpmn34 hired Sunny Creek to install a residential solar system and ended up impressed by Oscar’s leadership. The crew worked professionally and moved quickly, keeping communication clear throughout the process so the system was up and producing savings on the utility bill soon after installation. They appreciated the team’s visible commitment to customer satisfaction and the hands-on coordination that kept the project smooth. The detail that lingered most was Oscar’s clear communication and the fast turnaround that translated directly into lower electric bills.
Javier was exploring solar options and found the team consistently informative and easy to understand. He appreciated that explanations were clear and tailored, especially because they showed real sensitivity to senior needs. The crew stayed on top of questions and phone calls, often calling back when needed, and their bilingual communication made conversations simple and direct. What stuck with him most was the combination of patient, easy-to-follow explanations plus reliable callbacks — small actions that mattered when coordinating care for an older family member.
Chris turned to Oscar and his crew after pigeons began nesting under his solar panels. They installed a pigeon-proof fence around the arrays, offered to extend the same protection to the eaves, and cleaned the panels for a modest fee. He appreciated that the team stayed responsive and professional throughout the job and used fasteners only — no drilling into the roof — so his panel warranty remained intact. The price wound up far lower than other quotes he had seen, and he left with cleaner, bird-proofed panels and the confidence that the installation hadn’t compromised his warranty.
