Homeowner Story:

The homeowner in Altadena was paying over $500 a month for electricity and wanted to make a smart, lasting investment in her forever home. She was tired of sending money to the utility company and wanted real independence — something that would lower costs today and increase her home’s value over time.

UV Roofing Solution:

After reviewing her usage and roof condition, we designed a high-efficiency 8 kW solar system built to perform on her existing concrete tile roof. Our team handled every step with precision — protecting each tile, optimizing panel layout for maximum sun exposure, and ensuring the system blended cleanly with her home’s design.

Result

Her solar system now completely offsets her electric bill — she pays nothing to the utility company. What began as a cost-saving project became a long-term investment in comfort, independence, and sustainability. Her home now produces its own clean energy and is positioned for decades of added value and freedom from rising utility rates.
