Forecast Solar (& Roofing)
We are proud of being the first company in Washington to have made PV systems truly affordable. By bringing all the trades needed for solar installations under one company, we install quality PV systems more efficiently.
A SOLAR COMPANY BUILT ON DECADES OF ROOFING & ELECTRICAL CONTRACTING:
Forecast Solar has not merely hired roofers and electricians to work for us, we are a solar company with decades of successful roofing and electrical contracting (since '84 & '91 respectively). Though solar is currently 90% of our business this former experience provides our customers with a unique sense of peace and assurance found nowhere else.
The efficiency that comes from this history, along with having all three trades under one roof, is what optimizes our operations to meet our goals of quality and affordability.
Forecast Solar has helped lead the way making solar possible for anyone with good solar exposure in Washington to have renewable energy, and to get paid for doing it. Our cost and efficiency has encouraged others within the industry to also lower their prices--and now solar in Washington is booming.

Forecast replaced our roof in 2014 and installed a solar array, just under 10kw-35 panels I believe, for about $32k. Everything went fine and have not had any problems with the roof or solar panels. Our PUD bill has been about $17 a month since. We are hoping to receive about $10k in federal rebate, $5k for four years from the state. All in all, both projects went well. They pulled all the permits and arranged the inspections, we did very little except sign papers and apply for the loan (3.75% APR) through a credit union they suggested. However, we had a little problem with getting assistance on our solar skylight installed with the roof replacement when it stopped working after a year, they said they would help, but never followed through. It was a manufacturer issue, but they didn't contact the rep like they said they would. Also, our neighbor talked us about them and gave us their number. Forecast said they gave a $500 referral bonus which I had to call several times in order for my neighbor to receive half of it as Forecast said another neighbor had their panels on our block and think it wasn't fair that the one I spoke with get the entire amount. I never asked the other good if he received a bonus. but was quite annoyed that they didn't do those two things. Their work is very good and their sales guy, Doug I think, was very nice and knowledgeable. Overall, very positive, but don't expect them to go above and beyond.
