What Utah Solar Companies Tell Us

Fast Growth Creates
Fast-Growing Problems.

Utah solar is one of the fastest-growing industries in the state. Here’s what’s holding back every solar company trying to scale past 15 people.

🌪️

Growing Faster Than Your HR Can Handle

You hired 3 people last quarter and 5 more this quarter. No onboarding process, no handbooks, no documented policies. One employment dispute or termination done wrong and you’re exposed — especially with a rapidly growing team.

Most solar companies have zero HR infrastructure until it’s too late
💰

Sales Commission Payroll Is a Mess

Solar sales reps on commission plus base, installers on hourly — two totally different pay structures running at the same time. Manual calculations create disputes, errors, and IRS exposure every single pay period.

Commission payroll errors are the #1 reason solar reps quit
🔆

Rooftop Installer WC Is Expensive

Rooftop solar installation carries similar WC risk to roofing — heights, equipment, heat. Many solar companies are using the wrong NCCI classification codes and significantly overpaying every year.

Solar installers often fall under roofer-adjacent WC codes
🏃

Certified Installers Are Hard to Keep

NABCEP-certified installers are in demand across Utah. Once you’ve invested in their training and certification, larger solar companies with full benefits packages start recruiting them. No benefits means you can’t hold them.

Certified installer replacement costs $8,000–$15,000 per person
📊

Prevailing Wage on Public Projects

Government and utility-scale solar projects in Utah require prevailing wage payroll reporting. Most solar companies avoid these contracts or make compliance mistakes that delay payment and risk debarment from future bids.

📋

Subcontractor & 1099 Installer Risk

Many solar companies use 1099 installers to manage project volume. If you control their schedule, provide equipment, and direct their work — they may legally be W2 employees, creating significant tax exposure.

IRS misclassification penalties start at $50 per W2 not filed

Common Questions

Utah Solar Companies Ask Us This.

We have both sales reps and installers. Can you handle both pay structures?
Yes — mixed payroll is very common in solar companies and exactly what our system is built for. Sales reps on commission + base, installers on hourly or flat-rate, project managers on salary — they all run through the same payroll system with proper tax treatment for each. No more manual spreadsheets or pay disputes.
What WC classification do solar installers fall under?
Solar rooftop installers typically fall under NCCI codes related to roofing or electrical work depending on the nature of the installation. Many solar companies are miscoded and overpaying. Through our PEO, we ensure your installers are classified under the most accurate and favorable codes for their actual work, which directly lowers your WC premiums.
We’re growing fast — can you scale with us?
Yes — this is actually where a PEO shines most. As you add employees, benefits enrollment, payroll processing, and HR compliance all scale automatically. You don’t have to rebuild your back office every time you double headcount. The infrastructure is already there, waiting for the next hire.
Is this really free for our solar company?
Yes. Peak Business Services earns a referral commission from American Benefits Company when we successfully place your business. You pay nothing for our advisory work or setup assistance.
