Everlast Energy & Roofing
Everlast is a roofing and solar company, in that order, and you should evaluate it that way. BBB categorizes it under Roofing Contractors, its product list runs from roof replacement and solar to tree removal, generators, and mini-splits, and its one published workmanship warranty, a 25-year transferable term, applies to residential roof replacements. No solar workmanship warranty duration appears anywhere on the fetched home or solar pages. For a roof-plus-solar job that combination can genuinely work in your favor, since roof leaks are the most common solar dispute. For a solar-only job, you would be hiring a roofer whose solar work carries no published warranty term.
Connecticut credentials run through eLicense, and here is what Everlast actually holds: HIC.0667495, a company-level Home Improvement Contractor registration, active through March 31, 2027, and an active registration as an apprenticeship sponsor for an Electrician E-2 program. It holds no PV-1 or PV-2 limited solar contractor license and no company-level electrical license. The E-1 it advertises on its contact page, ELC.0181311-E1, is real and active, but it belongs to James E Bartlett of Enfield, first licensed in 1996, and the state record shows no DBA or other tie between Bartlett and Everlast. The entire connection rests on the company printing his number on its own website. That is why License status below reads as a company claim rather than verified. Ask directly who pulls the electrical permits on your job and confirm the name matches an active license.
The rest of the file is thin because the company is young. BBB dates the business start to February 1, 2022, about four years ago, with an A+ rating, accreditation since March 2023, and 4 complaints in the last 3 years. No government enforcement or court action naming the company was found. The home page claims a team of 40 plus, over 800 projects, and more than 1,200 homeowners served, but Everlast appears in neither 2026 Solar Power World table, so every volume number is first-party. Nothing here is alarming. It is simply a short record with two open questions, the electrical credential and the missing solar warranty, and both belong in writing before you sign.
The evidence
BBB dates the business start to February 1, 2022 and incorporation to April 26, 2022, making the company about four years old. Its own site tells an origin story about two stepbrothers starting in a basement but states no year, so the BBB dates are the only anchor.
BBB rates the company A+, accredited since March 27, 2023, with 4 complaints in the last 3 years and 2 closed in the last 12 months. Searches for attorney general, consumer protection, or court actions naming the company found nothing; the enforcement items those searches surfaced concern other companies.

The home page claims a team of 40 plus professionals, over 800 completed projects, and more than 1,200 homeowners served across the state, but neither the populated 2026 Solar Power World national table nor the 22-row Connecticut table contains an Everlast entry, so no independent volume evidence exists, and the project figures span roofing as well as solar.

HIC.0667495, Home Improvement Contractor, is active through March 31, 2027, and APSP.0005284 is an active Electrician E-2 apprenticeship sponsor registration, both verified on the state system. But the advertised E-1, ELC.0181311-E1, belongs to James E Bartlett of Enfield, and while that license is active, the state record shows no DBA tie to Everlast; the connection exists only on the company's contact page. No PV-1 or PV-2 record was found, and the Bartlett E-1 expires September 30, 2026.

The published 25-year transferable workmanship warranty applies to residential roof replacements. No solar workmanship warranty duration is stated on the fetched home or solar pages, so the coverage on the solar portion of a job is undocumented in the public material.

How to read this
Read this grade as a young company with a clean but short record, not as a verdict on its workmanship. The two gaps that set the grade are both fixable at the contract stage: have Everlast name the licensed electrical contractor who will pull your permit, and have it commit a solar workmanship term to paper the way it already does for roofs. If your project bundles a roof replacement with panels, the 25-year roofing warranty is a real asset; on a panels-only job, the published paperwork protects the roof and says nothing about the array. 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.
