See if solar fits your home

Step 1 of 5
Do you own your home?

Solar is installed on the property, so ownership matters.

Your answers are not a credit check.

Why one contact matters

A solar project involves up to seven parties.You only need to talk to one.

A home solar project touches the installer, the city or county permit office, the inspector, your utility, the lender or leasing company, the equipment manufacturers and, in many neighborhoods, the HOA. Each one has its own forms, its own timeline and its own phone number. When one of them stalls, somebody has to chase it.

With Skyward Solar, that somebody is your Skyward contact. You have one person to call who knows where your project stands.

How it works

Your project moves through eight stages.Skyward manages all of them.

A project can stall when one party is waiting on another and nobody owns the handoff. A common example: the inspection is passed, but nobody has asked the utility for permission to switch the system on. Skyward Solar manages every stage below, and your installation partner does the work on the roof.

One contact from the discovery call to switch-on

  1. Stage 1: Discovery call

    We learn why you are looking at solar, what you want from it and what your home is like.

  2. Stage 2: Bill review

    We go through your recent utility bills with you, so the system is sized from the electricity you actually use.

  3. Stage 3: Custom design and proposal

    You get a system designed around your home and your usage, with financing options from our partner lenders, subject to credit approval.

  4. Stage 4: Agreement

    You review the agreement and sign when you are ready.

  5. Stage 5: Permits and HOA

    The project needs a permit from your city or county and, in many neighborhoods, HOA approval.

  6. Stage 6: Installation

    A local installation partner installs the system on your home.

  7. Stage 7: Inspection and utility approval

    The local inspector signs off, then your utility issues permission to operate, often called PTO, which is its approval to turn the system on.

  8. Stage 8: Switch-on

    Your system starts producing power.

Three ways to go solar

How Skyward Solar differs from an installer or a quote website.

The difference is who manages your project. Skyward Solar is a third option, next to an installer and a quote website: we bring in a local installation partner and manage the project until your system is on.

Know before you sign

Two things to check in any solar quote.

The federal solar tax credit for homeowners ended in 2025

If your system is placed in service after December 31, 2025, meaning installed and ready to use, there is no federal tax credit for buying it with cash or a loan. A quote that still subtracts 30% from your price is using a rule that no longer applies.

Leases and power purchase agreements (PPAs) follow different rules, because the company, not you, owns the system. Ask the provider how those rules affect your price before you sign.

Solar companies do fail, so know who holds each warranty

SunPower, Sunnova, PosiGen and Freedom Forever have all filed for bankruptcy since 2024. After an installer files for bankruptcy, the panel and inverter warranties generally stay with the manufacturers and any loan still has to be repaid. The workmanship warranty comes from the installer itself, so it may end with the company unless another company takes over its customers.

On a Skyward Solar project, the local installation partner provides the workmanship warranty and the manufacturers provide the panel and inverter warranties. Before you sign any solar contract, ours included, ask who holds each warranty and get the answers in writing.

Highly recommend their service. They helped me thru all the red tape that the HOA and California gave me. They stuck to their word and surpased my expectations. These guys will go the extra mile and help you with everything you need.

Questions

Questions homeowners ask before they sign.

01What does it mean to be a one-stop shop for home solar?

It means you do not coordinate the installer, the permit office, the inspector, the utility and the lender yourself. One company, Skyward Solar, is responsible for moving your project from the first call until the system is switched on, and your Skyward contact is the person you call with any question along the way.

02Is Skyward Solar a solar installer?

No. Skyward Solar manages your project and brings in local installation partners, who do the installation and provide the workmanship warranty. Skyward does not hold that warranty, so ask to see the partner’s warranty in writing before you sign.

03How much does a home solar system cost?

Compare solar quotes by price per watt: the system price divided by its size in watts. For example, a $24,000 quote for an 8-kilowatt system works out to $3.00 per watt. The price itself depends on the system size, your roof, the equipment and how you pay. Skyward Solar sizes the system from your actual electric bills and shows the price with your financing options in your proposal.

04Can I still get the 30% federal solar tax credit in 2026?

No, not for a system you buy with cash or a loan. According to the IRS, the Residential Clean Energy Credit, known as Section 25D, is not available for systems placed in service after December 31, 2025. A lease or PPA can still involve a business credit claimed by the company that owns the system, so ask the provider whether its systems qualify and whether that lowers your monthly price.

05Who holds the warranty on a Skyward Solar system?

The local installation partner provides the workmanship warranty on a Skyward Solar project, and the panels and inverters carry their manufacturers’ warranties. With any solar company, ask three questions before you sign: who holds the workmanship warranty, who services the system if the installer closes, and whether the equipment warranty depends on using a certified installer.

06Does Skyward Solar work in my state?

Yes. Skyward Solar works in all 50 states and in Puerto Rico, and is headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona. The rules that shape your savings, such as what your utility pays for exported power, vary by utility, even within a state. When you speak with Skyward, have your ZIP code and your utility’s name ready.

07Do I need to own my home to go solar?

In most cases, yes, because the system is installed on the property and the agreement is tied to the house. If you rent, ask your landlord first, since the owner of the property has to agree to a rooftop system.

Still have a question?Leave your number and Skyward Solar will call you back.

Start with your electric bill.Your Skyward contact takes it from there.

Answer five questions, then keep a recent electric bill nearby for the discovery call. Your system is sized from that bill, and your proposal shows the price with your financing options.
