AfterSolar Services in Clovis, CA
Solar in Clovis is a different conversation than it is 200 miles south or 2,000 feet up. You’re dealing with true four-season heat, a real winter (even if it’s short), valley fog that parks itself over the 93611 and 93612 ZIP codes for weeks, and a housing stock that runs from 1960s ranch homes near Old Town to 2020s builds up in the Loma Vista area. We answer calls from a live person at (877) 550-6892, and when you call about solar, you get Gus’s Solar, not a call center. We know which roofs on which Clovis streets get hammered by afternoon sun in August, because we’ve handled Solar Panel Installation in Clovis and been on them.

Why Clovis Homeowners Choose Gus’s Solar
Most Clovis residents who call us have already talked to someone else. Usually it was a door-knocker with a laminated chart, or a national outfit they found online that quoted one number on the phone and another when the guy showed up with a tablet. Then they call us, and Gus Petrakis answers the phone. He’s been doing this since 2011, he puts his own name on the truck, and he’ll tell you to take two weeks before you sign anything. If a salesman needs an answer tonight, the answer is no. That resonates in Clovis, where people aren’t in a hurry to be rushed.
We handle solar for the established streets lined with mature shade trees in the Tarpey Village area, and for the newer subdivisions east of Clovis Avenue in 93619. Our customers there aren’t strangers. We run into them at Sierra Vista Mall or along Clovis Avenue. When they have a question, they don’t file a ticket. They call, and a live person picks up, 24/7.
Every job we do is backed by the 90-Day Done Right Promise: if it’s not done right, Gus makes it right, in writing, on every solar job. One call brings him back.
Solar Services We Offer in Clovis
Solar Panel Installation in Clovis
We design systems around your actual roof, your actual usage, and your actual bill. The math starts with what your utility meter says, not what a brochure suggests. Learn more about our Solar Panel Installation in Clovis.
Solar Battery Storage & Backup in Clovis
Clovis is PG&E territory, and the summer afternoon heat and fall wind events can interrupt power. A backup battery keeps your refrigerator, lights, and medical equipment running when the grid doesn’t. Learn more about Solar Battery Storage & Backup in Clovis.
Solar Panel Cleaning in Clovis
Valley dust, pollen, and the occasional ash from fire season settle on panels and quietly reduce output. A clean panel array in Clovis produces meaningfully more than a gritty one, and we can show you the before-and-after production numbers. Learn more about Solar Panel Cleaning in Clovis.
EV Charger Installation
More Clovis garages are parking an EV in them every year. We handle EV Charger Installation - Clovis with Level 2 chargers that work with your panel, your service, and your driving patterns, so you’re not stringing an extension cord out of a laundry-room window.
Solar Panel Maintenance & Monitoring
Gus monitors his customers’ systems. When something goes wrong, he’s the one who calls you, not the other way around. That’s the owner-operating difference, and it matters when your production suddenly drops in June.
Solar Panel Repair
Clovis heat and wind can take a toll on mounting hardware and connections, which is why Clovis Solar Panel Cleaning and maintenance matter. If your system is underperforming, we’ll find out why and give you a straight answer about what’s worth fixing and what isn’t. Right now, there’s $40 off any repair over $200.
Commercial Solar Installation
Warehouses, offices, and retail buildings in Clovis have different roof profiles and different rates than homes. We handle the system sizing, the permitting, and the install with the same no-pressure pricing we offer homeowners.
Neighborhoods We Serve in Clovis
We cover all four Clovis ZIP codes: 93611, 93612, 93613, and 93619. That includes the whole range, from the established neighborhoods east of Minnewawa to the newer builds in Loma Vista and Harlan Ranch.

Why Clovis’s Climate & Housing Affect Solar
Clovis sits in the San Joaquin Valley, where summer highs routinely pass 100 degrees and afternoon sun loads hit hard on west-facing roofs. That means your solar system needs to be sized for real heat-driven air conditioning loads, not coastal averages. It also means panel degradation happens at a different pace than in cooler parts of the state. We’ve seen arrays in the 93612 ZIP code that were installed a decade ago and are still producing well, and others that were undersized from day one. The difference comes down to honest sizing.
Your roof matters just as much as the weather. A lot of Clovis housing is single-story ranches with asphalt shingle roofs and shallow slopes, which makes installs straightforward. But the newer homes going up east of Leonard Avenue are often two-story, with tile or concrete roofing over heat-soaked framing, and that requires a different flashing approach. Gus’s crew flashes every roof penetration properly. No shortcuts, no subcontracted labor, no silicone-and-hope.
Pricing for Solar in Clovis
We don’t do door-to-door price drops or “tonight only” numbers. The price we quote is the price you pay, and it’s built off your actual utility bill. Bring us a bill, and Gus will bring you the math. He quotes the year-25 output, not the day-one brochure number, because that’s the number that actually determines whether solar pencils out for you.
For a typical Clovis single-family home, here’s what you can anticipate:
- Full solar panel installation on an average roof: $16,000-$28,000 before incentives, depending on system size and roof complexity.
- Battery backup (one battery): $9,000-$14,000 installed, depending on brand and integration.
- Panel cleaning: $180-$350 per visit, based on array size and roof access.
- EV charger install: $650-$1,800, depending on distance from the panel and whether a load-management device is needed.
- Repair diagnostics and common fixes: $150-$800, with $40 off any repair over $200 right now.

FAQs About Solar in Clovis
A complete home solar installation in Clovis typically ranges from $16,000 to $28,000 before federal tax credits, depending on your roof’s size, age, and exposure, and we can add Clovis Solar Battery Storage & Backup if you want to cover evening and outage hours. That range is based on the homes we’ve quoted across the 93611, 93612, 93613, and 93619 ZIP codes. Call (877) 550-6892 for a quote built from your actual bill, not a national average.
Yes, and it makes sense for reasons specific to this valley. Your air conditioning is a massive summer electrical load, and solar offsets that load at its highest value, when the sun is directly overhead. Fog days are a real factor in winter, but annual production in Clovis is still strong enough to make the year-25 math work for many homes.
That depends on age, output history, and what failed. We diagnose before we recommend, and we’ll tell you honestly when a repair is throwing good money after bad. If you have a written estimate from another company, we’ll do a free second opinion, and $40 off any repair over $200 is on the table right now.
For most non-emergency calls in Clovis, we can be there within one to two days. Emergency situations, like a damaged panel or a failed inverter during a heat wave, we handle as fast as we can get a truck to you. Call (877) 550-6892 and a live person answers, 24/7.
Every solar job we do carries the 90-Day Done Right Promise in writing. If it’s not right, Gus makes it right. Equipment warranties come from the manufacturers we use, which include Qcells, REC, and SunPower, and we’ll explain the differences before you choose.

What Clovis Customers Say
"Gus's own crew did the install. Not a subcontractor who had never met him, which is what the big outfit quoted me and could not tell me who would actually be on my roof."
- Aurelia Santibanez"He modelled it on my actual bill and the current export rates rather than the old ones, and told me plainly that the payback was longer than the door knockers had claimed. Then it came in about where he said it would."
- Octavius Redmond"Production dropped one spring and I did not even notice. Gus rang me, because he watches the monitoring, and had it sorted the same week."
- Sunita Balakrishnan
