Unlike solar-only companies, we are licensed roofers first. We properly integrate panels into your roof system — no leaks, no shortcuts, no roof warranties voided.
Permit-to-Interconnection Support
We handle the full process: city permits, utility applications, inspections, and final PTO approval — so you don't have to chase anyone down.
Federal Tax Credit Guidance
We walk you through the 30% federal solar tax credit, California-specific rebates, and utility incentives to maximize your return on investment.
Full-Service — One Company
From system design and panel installation to battery storage and ongoing maintenance — we are your single point of contact for everything solar.
Are High Utility Bills Draining Your SLO County Budget?
San Luis Obispo County homeowners face some of the highest electricity rates in California. Solar is the smartest long-term investment you can make — and Wicks makes the process simple.
Electricity bills keep climbing
SCE and PG&E rates have increased dramatically. Solar locks in predictable, lower energy costs for 25+ years — starting from day one.
Worried about power outages?
Add a Tesla Powerwall or other battery backup to keep your home running during PSPS events and grid outages — day or night.
Want to reduce your carbon footprint?
Solar energy eliminates thousands of pounds of CO₂ annually while delivering real financial returns. A win for your wallet and the planet.
Want to increase your home's value?
Studies show solar homes sell for 4–6% more than comparable non-solar homes — a strong, tangible return on your investment.

What Our Customers Say
"Wicks Solar just completed my residential solar and home battery system and we are absolutely thrilled by their skill, craft and customer service."
"Last year we decided to add solar panels and a Tesla battery backup to our home. The Wicks team was responsive and got everything done in a timely manner. We have used them in the past for skylight and roof repairs and have been pleased with their work."
"I researched several solar companies in Santa Barbara and finally decided on Wicks. I am so glad I did. They were very professional and thoughtful throughout the process. Jared and Tono and the whole crew could not have been better to work with. They redid my roof, added solar and replaced my electric meter — a big job. I highly recommend them."
