American Solar and Roofing

Provisional grade. A long operating history and a verified Arizona CR-42 roofing record are positives, but the claimed dual solar-and-roofing licensing is not fully documented and public warranty terms are missing.

American Solar and Roofing says it was founded in 2001, added roofing in 2008, and serves Arizona statewide. Arizona ROC records identify American Solar Electric Inc, DBA American Solar & Roofing, with ROC 236520 in the CR-42 roofing class. The company says it is Arizona's only dually licensed solar and roofing installer, yet the research located no electrical or solar-class ROC number beyond that roofing record. It reports roughly 6,000 solar and roofing jobs and more than 30 MW installed, but those are the company's own figures, not an independent ranking. BBB reports eight complaints in the last three years, three closed in the last 12 months. The history is real, but the license and warranty questions keep this at C rather than letting age carry the grade.

The evidence

LongevityVerified

The company says it was founded in 2001 and added roofing in 2008. BBB records both business start and incorporation on January 3, 2001, while trade coverage describes a 25-year milestone in 2026. That is an established record, not a new entrant using a long-history story.

Complaints and enforcementVerified

BBB reports an A+ rating, accreditation since June 17, 2020, eight complaints in the last three years, and three closed in the last 12 months. That is not a trivial complaint count. It belongs in the conversation alongside the company's long operating history.

Verifiable volumeCompany claim

The company reports more than 30,000,000 watts installed and about 6,000 solar and roofing jobs completed, including a 230 kW Embry-Riddle plant and a 320 kW Scottsdale water treatment plant. Those are the company's own numbers and we treat them as a claim. It did not appear in the 2025 or 2026 Top Arizona Solar Contractors lists retrieved for this research.

License statusPending verification

Arizona ROC lists American Solar Electric Inc, DBA American Solar & Roofing, ROC 236520, class CR-42 Roofing, with Mark Charles Skidmore as qualifying party. The company says it is licensed, bonded, insured, and dually licensed for solar and roofing, but a separate electrical or solar-class ROC number was not located. Arizona's readable ROC result did not expose current status or expiration.

Warranty termsPending verification

Warranty coverage is referenced in the company's public material, but no workmanship, production, or roof warranty duration was published. There is no way to grade a warranty from a headline. Ask for the labor, roof-penetration, equipment, and production terms in the actual contract.

How to read this

American Solar and Roofing is worth quoting if a roof and solar project need to be coordinated, but do not confuse a verified roofing record with proof of every license the company says it carries. Ask for the electrical or solar ROC number tied to your project, the entity that will pull the permit, and the warranty schedule before you compare price. The company's scale claims may be true, but they are still claims. Eight recent BBB complaints means you should also ask how service escalations are handled after installation. Our full rubric, including how our own installation business gets graded on the same scale, is on the methodology page. We are a solar installer and we partner with other solar companies. Grading is structurally separated from revenue; see disclosures.
