Installing solar for the first time
Share your utility and electricity use. Ask for a proposed system, expected production and a written explanation of the assumptions behind it.
Explore home solar before choosing an installer
Don’t go with the first solar bid. Your first price could be thousands too high. A monthly payment alone won’t tell you what the system costs or what work is included. Tell us about your home and energy goals. We coordinate written solar installation quotes for free, whether you already have an offer or are just getting started. Add $499 Full Advocacy when you want us to compare the details and negotiate scope and price for you.
We organize your request and coordinate with contractors, so you spend less time repeating yourself. With Full Advocacy, we can step in for you at one local visit when needed. Contractors assess and quote the work. You choose who to hire.
Start with a free 5-minute call. Three bids are our target, subject to contractor availability and whether the project is a fit. Contractors may need to visit.
No quote needed to get started
You don’t need to choose panels or sit through a presentation before talking with us. Start with your electricity use, roof questions and budget priorities. We organize the request so installers know what you want to explore. They assess the property and propose the equipment and installation work.
Share your utility and electricity use. Ask for a proposed system, expected production and a written explanation of the assumptions behind it.
Tell us about the roof’s condition and any replacement plans. Request clear responsibility and sequencing so the two projects can be considered together.
Interested in keeping essentials powered during an outage? Request a separate battery option and a clear description of the loads it is designed to support.
Know what you are being offered
A monthly payment does not tell you the full cost of going solar. Ask for an installed cash price and clearly stated financing terms before deciding. Our free service delivers the proposals; paid comparison is available if you want help working through them.
From first question to written offers
01
Bring a recent bill and usage history if available. Leave account numbers out of the intake.
02
We prepare the brief and coordinate outreach; installers confirm site conditions and feasibility.
03
Receive written offers, ask questions and decide whether you want additional paid advocacy.
Understand the budget
Equipment, system size, roof work and electrical changes affect the installed price. Use our solar planning estimator as a starting point, then request a property-specific quote. Check utility and incentive eligibility separately. We do not assume every home qualifies or deduct an unconfirmed benefit.
Useful before requesting quotes
Choose your support
We prepare a consistent project request, reach out through our participating network, screen contractors as bids are requested and deliver the written offers we receive.
You review the offers and decide what to do. Free delivery does not include a comparison, summary, recommendation, negotiation or our attendance.
How free delivery works ↗We compare the bids, ask what is missing and handle one final negotiation round on price, included work, warranty and timing. You get our recommendation in writing and help connecting with your chosen contractor.
We compare the solar bids, clarify the equipment, installation scope, production assumptions and any battery work, and give you a written recommendation. In one final round, we negotiate scope and price for you, along with warranty and timing. You choose who to hire.
See the full offer and fees ↗Paid support starts only after the free call and agreement on scope. We can’t guarantee a lower price, savings that cover our fee or three completed bids. We also receive a disclosed fixed contractor success fee under agreed conditions. See how we are paid. The contractor pays this fee. It is not added to your agreed contract price and does not change that price.
Prepare for the visit
Not sure how much solar you need or whether batteries belong in the same project? That is a useful place to start. Tell us if you expect your electricity use to change. We help define the questions; the installer is responsible for system design, permitting and installation.

Yes. We can put both options in the project request. Separate pricing helps you see the cost of storage. Installer availability and the property determine which options can be offered.
