Arkansas Solar Installers

Hiring a Solar Installer in Arkansas

Buildermuse currently lists 10 solar installers in Arkansas, averaging 5.0 stars across 478 verified Google reviews. That is an unusually strong field — when nearly every firm clears 4.8 stars, response time and availability become the real differentiators, so call two or three rather than only the top result. Most of the crews above operate out of Bentonville, Little Rock, and Rogers.

Arkansas licenses this trade at the state level: the Electrical credential is required for all work, regardless of project size. Licensed through separate electrical board. Licenses renew on an annual cycle (December 31). Expect a $100 state application fee. Verify any license directly with the Arkansas Contractors Licensing Board at (501) 372-4661 before signing a contract. At a minimum, ask for proof of $300,000 in general liability coverage and active workers' comp.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Arkansas market sets the floor: construction workers here average $31.62 an hour — about $65,780 a year — across 67,963 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Use that figure as a sanity check when comparing quotes — a bid priced far below market labor rates usually means subcontracted or uninsured crews.
