Their success is our best testimonial
I want to thank Ty for his VERY HONEST consultation today regarding residential EV charging information. Your taking time to come out and assess our possible electrical needs for our 2026 Kia EV6 was truly appreciated.
Ty was great. Quick to respond and worked with us on a great price. He even came back when we had an issue with our electric panel to make sure we were good. I highly recommend!
I found illuminate electric solutions on SMUD’s website to install my level 2 charger for my new EV. Exchanged emails and texts with Ty, who was very accommodating and easy to work with. Great communication and great service. The installation was a breeze, as well as the inspection process and rebate, which was handled entirely by Illuminate. Ty great job and will absolutely use them again for any electrical job that I need. 5 Star all the way.
