We hired Urban Design Solar to put a large solar system on our building in Chico, California, Skyway Tool Center. We have good sun exposure and had been paying enormous electric bills for years - from $800 to $1600 per month - until we had the solar system installed in 2015. We took bids from quite a few solar installation companies in the Chico area, but after studying it we decided to go with Urban Design Solar.

They came out immediately and put up the system quickly and efficiently. They made no mistakes in the entire install and put up a system that we LOVE. Our PG&E bill went from $1600 a month in the summer to about $200 a month, and even less in the winter. We figure we earned back the money we spent on this solar system in the four years since we had it put in. The owner and employees at Urban Design Solar are friendly, professional, and hard working. I highly recommend.

We're very pleased with the work Urban Design Solar has done for us! Several years ago, Sean and his team installed solar panels on our new home. Much more recently, they installed a terrific patio cover for our back yard. Sean and Ryan gave us really good advice in choosing the patio cover that best suited our needs. It not only will provide many years of shade for us but has additionally enhanced our home value, IMO. I have only good to say about this company!

I did a ton of research on solar companies from Redding to Sacramento and obtained a dozen or more quotes. Urban Design came out on top by a landslide. Tony gave us the absolute best customer service. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to go the extra mile to make us happy; before, during, and after the installation! UDS put on excellent panels in a timely manner at an affordable price. I highly recommend them.

Love our solar and the price. The installation crew was great. Dealing with the owner...not so much!

Urban Design Solar is a wonderful local company that I would highly recommend for your solar needs. They are the most economical (yes, I got a few bids before choosing them), but the lower price does not equal lower quality; the products they use are top notch. There is real-time system monitoring that comes with the panels, too. In addition, they are efficient, well organized, and their customer service is great. They take care of the whole process from start to finish--from paperwork and permits to clean-up--so all you have to do is sign and pay. They were even able to help me with the side project of turning the useless space under our attic (which had no access) into a functioning storage area--an added bonus! I have been recommending Urban Design to friends, and now that it is time to expand out system, I'm working with them again.

They put solar on my office building. Honest, great work, great results. I would highly recommend them. They came out for a follow up visit today, about six months after install, to see how I was doing with the solar. Spent time with me to refresh my knowledge of the monitoring systems. Great people. Great work.

Where do I start? This is my second solar project I have purchased for my second home. I used Sun Power (Alternative Energy Solutions) for my first house. At the time they did a great job and were the most competitive. This time I needed something bigger, more complex, and needed to have it come in under a certain budget. Long story short I shopped 4 different companies and it came down to AES and Urban Design. I have to say Urban Design was awesome! AES felt like they were pressuring me though to buy something I didn't need or their product was not represented accurately. (Ex our panels are better than theirs..... uh no that's not true). Urban Design matched everyone's prices and promises beating all the competitors as far as price, solar performance, and follow up on warranty. We are very pleased with the final project. Urban design staff were also very professional and followed through on everything we asked for. This system is awesome!!!!! Feel free to contact me and I'll show you my solar system in action. I love tracking it via my iPhone and am thrilled that my PGE bills are a thing of the past. Do yourself a favor and buy your system don't rent one no matter how good it sounds.....renting is just giving others your space rent free.

I have known Sean and the rest of the gang at Urban Design Solar for a few year and I personally know 3 of their clients. I can say that thing that separates Urban Design Solar from their competition is their customer service. They go way out of their way to make sure their clients are happy and get the perfect solar solution for their particular needs whether it be commercial or residential. If you need solar or think you do I highly recommend contacting Urban!

I have had several contractors work on my house and this has by far been my best experience. I got several quotes for the job, and this was the best value when comparing systems, the installation was done quickly, and I did have some post installation questions and an issue and the customer service has been prompt and satisfactory. I couldn't be happier and without hesitation recommend Sean and Urban Design Solar!
