In Arizona, a contractor must be licensed through the Registrar of Contractors (ROC) to legally perform construction, home repair, remodeling, and solar installation jobs that require a building permit or when the total project cost is $1000 or more. When someone contracts without a license, they endanger the health, safety and welfare of the public, undercut licensed contractors who operate legitimately and lawfully, and hurt the entire construction industry. Also, when a homeowner hires someone who is not licensed, they have no recourse through the ROC complaint process or the Residential Contractors' Recovery Fund.

Important information about Solar Installations from the Registrar of Contractors.
