How to Verify a Nevada Solar Contractor License

Solar installation in Nevada is contractor-licensed work overseen by the Nevada State Contractors Board (NSCB) — photovoltaic installations fall under electrical-related classifications, and the Board's license search is public. Verify anyone quoting you a system, including anyone we connect you with.

Step by step

1. Search the company at the NSCB license lookup: nscb.nv.gov.
2. Confirm the license is active, the classification covers photovoltaic/electrical work, and the monetary limit on the license fits your project size.
3. Check the license holder's name against the company on your proposal — not a “partner” entity you've never heard of.
4. Ask who handles the utility interconnection application and permitting — a real installer owns that process.

Red flags

• Door-to-door sales where the “installer” can't be named or verified.
• Savings projections nobody will put in writing with assumptions attached.
• Pressure to sign same-day for a “program” that expires tonight — utility rules and licensed installers will still be there tomorrow.
