We believe Solar Magic provides home and business owners with THE MOST Affordable Clean Energy on the planet. The only way to acquire your solar energy system for less cost, would be if you were to install the system yourself…which it just so happens we also offer. Ask about our ‘UdU’ self install program.
Solar Magic is a private contracting company, based in Fresno, California. Our two founders are Marlin Alvis, and Alan Samaha.
Marlin was born and raised in the neighboring city of Reedley, and has designed and installed residential and commercial solar power systems in and around Fresno, since 2001. Marlin has pretty much seen it and done it all, when it comes to solar, not to mention most forms of building construction; he’s also a licensed General Contractor, affording Solar Magic the added capability of including ‘in-house’ construction services in our solar projects, including large carport, patio, and ‘out-buildings’. Marlin has been voted, Best Dad, for 27 years running…by his daughter, Megan. 🙂
Alan hails from the San Francisco Bay Area originally, relocating to the Fresno-Clovis area (cause it’s WAY BETTER here) in 2003, having successfully climbed the upper ranks of two corporation’s financial management ladders. Alan eventually landed in the Wealth Management field, for Merrill Lynch, before joining Marlin to launch Solar Magic. Alan’s immersion in the world of finance and business operations qualifies him perfectly as Solar Magic’s business director.
Education: Solar Magic believes deeply that our industry benefits from education. We have found the more our customers understand about solar power, the better their overall experience. Be warned however, we have a lot of information and are not afraid to use it. So please do not hesitate to ask us to ‘shut up’ (no offense will be taken) when you have heard enough. We are Solar Nerds, and want you to be Nerds too.
Communication: Our trained staff will be with you every step of the way so you know exactly what to expect – from concept to completion we are just a phone call away for any question or concern.
Customer Care and Follow Through: Solar Magic takes customer care very seriously being one of our company’s most important policies. Normally we don’t abide tattle-tales, but in this case, we actually encourage feedback from our customers. Our management can’t be all places at all times, therefore we welcome useful input, both good and not so good, regarding our workers behavior.
Financing: We provide several financing programs to meet customer needs and will walk you through the options, and making it an easy and comfortable experience.
Incentives: In California, the solar industry has historically enjoyed extremely helpful incentives designed to accelerate adoption of solar power in the private sector. While state PV rebates ran out many years ago, a 30% federal tax credit is still available, and definitely significant. Customers who include battery storage in their system’s design, may be eligible for further ‘storage’ based rebates.
Reliability: As a rule the solar equipment we install has very few problems, as evidenced by our manufacturers generous warranties. However, in the event a problem arises, we give top priority to it’s swift and accurate resolution.
Convenience: Most of our systems include remote monitoring of production and equipment, via the internet. Customers can see their system production from any connected device, and even receive automated notification of their energy production and any potential maintenance issues
