Chicago publishes no contractor license list we can check, so this list counts permits only. Ask for the license number and check it with the state before you hire. Typical job is the middle job value written on their permits, which can differ from the final price.

Open your job roomPaying for your solar system
Three common ways. Compare the total you will repay, not the monthly payment.
- Home equity line of creditBorrow against what your home is worth. Rates are usually lower, but your home secures the loan, and approval takes a few weeks.
- Personal loanNo collateral and a fast answer. Rates are usually higher and you repay sooner.
- Contractor financingMany contractors offer a plan through a lender. Get the rate, fees and total cost in writing, then compare it with your bank.
