Why verification matters

Solar is a magnet for high-pressure sales and undersized systems on bad financing. A licensed installer handles the electrical, permit, and utility interconnection legally - and stands behind the production estimate.

Why ContractorRoster

The state board's job ends at the license. Ours starts there.

Solar installers are split across multiple license categories depending on the state — C-46 in California, AES (Alternative Energy) in Virginia, sub-specialties under electrical in others. ContractorRoster collapses those into a single search and delivers every active solar installer with phone, email, and website in one CSV.

California: California requires all contractors performing work valued over $500 to hold an active CSLB license. The CSLB registry is one of the most comprehensive in the country, with roughly 280,000 active licenses across all trades.

Use cases

  • Module, inverter, or rack-system distributor outreach by metro
  • Installer-network recruitment for residential solar finance programs
  • Building a county sales list for monitoring, O&M, or software vendors
  • Outbound for storage and battery integrators targeting solar EPCs

I needed every licensed plumber in three counties by Wednesday for a vendor outreach campaign. The CSV hit my inbox in under 4 minutes. Used it the same afternoon.
