Ohio Solar Installers

Hiring a Solar Installer in Ohio

Buildermuse currently lists 10 solar installers in Ohio, averaging 5.0 stars across 541 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 Cincinnati, Columbus, and Dublin.

Ohio licenses this trade at the state level: the Electrical credential is required for all work, regardless of project size. Licensed through Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board. Verify any license directly with the issuing authority before signing a contract.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Ohio market sets the floor: construction workers here average $37.30 an hour — about $77,584 a year — across 260,262 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.
