What Questions Should I Ask the Best Solar Company Before Hiring Them

There are several questions you should ask solar companies before hiring them to ensure they’re the best choice. Keep reading to learn what questions to ask your prospective solar company.

Are You Licensed?

This may seem like a basic question, but you want to make sure you’re hiring a professional solar company.

Requirements vary by state, but most states require a general contracting license. Make sure the solar company you choose has the appropriate licensing for your state.

How Long Have You Been in Business?

Consider working with a company that has at least three years of residential solar experience. Typically, the more experience a company has, the better they are at solar installation.

Do You Offer Financing Options?

Understanding the different options available will help you get the best deal possible. Depending on your situation, you might need to consider the financing options that the company offers. Asking the question upfront will help you decide what works best for you and what company to ultimately hire.

Do You Have Reviews Available?

Checking reviews from previous customers is one of the best ways to learn about a company. You can search for online reviews or ask the solar company to provide you with a few references.

Hearing about experiences from previous clients will help you get a feel for what to expect from the solar company.

If the company you’re talking to doesn’t have any reviews, it could be a red flag. Make sure you hire a company that has a strong track record with past customers.

Do You Offer Warranties?

On average, solar panels have a twenty-year lifespan. It may be useful to learn more about how long solar panels last and what impacts their longevity. Most installers in the solar industry use high-quality panels and offer good warranty coverage, but it’s worth it to double-check.

You want to be sure that the types of solar panels you’re having installed are going to last for decades to come. Look for a warranty that offers at least 25 years of coverage for power production and 10 years of coverage for workmanship.

Ready to Hire the Best Solar Company?

Now that you know what questions to ask to find the best solar company, are you ready to make the switch to solar? By asking these questions up front, you’ll be confident in the solar company you choose and will be well on your way to a positive solar installation experience.
