Good to know
Pick a contractor whose evaluation date works for you. If you hire them, the $349 comes off the system price.
Before work starts: Permits, inspections, utility interconnection and HOA rules apply to this work. Your contractor handles permits, but following the rules is on you and your contractor, not HomeBackupPros. Ask any contractor for a certificate of insurance before work starts, and ask your own agent how solar or a generator affects your homeowners policy. Details
How much does home energy evaluation cost?
Contractors set their own prices based on the size of the job and what is involved, as a flat price or an hourly rate with an estimated total. Posting is free and you see every price before you decide.
Do contractors need insurance?
Yes. Every contractor quoting through HomeBackupPros must report general liability insurance. Look for the verified label if you want one whose certificate we have reviewed, and ask for a current certificate before work starts.
