How we rank solar installers in Arlington

Each business is scored on signals we can verify from public data: a live, secure (HTTPS) website, mobile-friendliness, a published phone number and website, and fit with the solar installers category. We do not collect or display customer reviews, and we do not accept payment for placement. Businesses can claim their listing to correct contact details, but the rank is fixed by the data. Owners can claim a listing for a Verified badge and a direct link; sponsors appear only in labeled blocks outside the numbered list. Neither changes rank.

Local conditions

Hiring solar installers in Arlington: what the local data says

  • 16% of the homes in Arlington were built in 2010 or later. Newer roofs have more years of life left, which matters because panels are hard to work around once installed.
  • 39% of occupied homes in Arlington are owner-occupied, and 24% of homes are single-family detached houses. Much of the rest is rowhouses, townhouses and apartments, so check shared property lines, HOA or condo rules and any landlord approval before planning outdoor or roof work.
  • The median owner-occupied home in Arlington is valued at $945,700, a useful yardstick when weighing what to spend on a major project.

Common questions

Solar Installers in Arlington: quick answers

How are the solar installers in Arlington ranked?

Each listing is scored on public signals we can check ourselves: whether the website is live and secure (HTTPS), whether it works on a phone, whether a phone number and website are published, and how closely the business matches the solar installers category. We do not collect customer reviews, so no star ratings or review counts appear here, and no business pays for placement.

How do I pick the best solar installer in Arlington?

Use this list to shortlist two or three solar installers, then read their Google reviews yourself, confirm license and insurance, and get written estimates before committing. The score here is a filter, not a verdict.

How do I verify a solar installer's license in Virginia?

Licensing in Virginia runs through the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR). Before hiring anyone in Arlington, ask whether they hold a Class A, B, or C contractor license and verify the license number through DPOR's public license lookup. Also confirm current liability insurance, and get the license number in writing on the estimate.

Which solar installers serve Arlington?

This page lists Lumina Solar, SurgePV, SOLARIT, solar panel Installer and NEDES Solar Installation Services, in ranked order. 3 of the 5 publish a phone number, so you can call those directly; the rest are easiest to reach through their websites.

What to look for when hiring a solar installer in Arlington

  • Ask for the DPOR contractor license with the Alternative Energy (AES) specialty. In Virginia, solar installers need it from the Virginia Board for Contractors (DPOR). Verify it at the official Virginia license lookup before signing. Virginia's solar specialty does not cover electrical work, so ask who holds the ELE license for the wiring and interconnection.
  • Written estimates. Any solar installer who won't put the scope in writing is a red flag.
  • Review quality, not just volume. Read the 3-star reviews, they're usually the most honest.
  • Local references. A solar installer who's done work in Clarendon or Ballston will understand local housing stock better than a regional chain.
