Solar Software
Solar Estimating Software
The all-in-one estimating, invoicing, and payment app built for solar installers. Run your whole solar business from your phone — quote it, get it signed, and get paid the same day.
Made for the realities solar installers deal with every day
Solar sales are high-ticket and consultative, and financing often makes or breaks the close.
Contractor Ace sends polished, itemized proposals with financing built in, so homeowners can approve and finance a system right from their phone.
Quote every solar job in seconds
Build your common jobs once, then reuse them on every quote so no two visits start from scratch.
Everything your solar business needs in one app
Estimates
Build a branded estimate in under a minute and send it by text before you leave the job.
Invoices
Turn any approved estimate into an invoice with one tap and deliver it with a pay link.
Payments
Accept card, ACH, and tap-to-pay on the truck. Funds land the next business day.
Scheduling
See every job on one calendar with drag-and-drop rescheduling and Google sync.
Customer CRM

Review Requests
Auto-text a review request the moment an invoice is paid.
How solar installers save time and money with Contractor Ace
Every hour solar installers spend writing quotes at the kitchen table or chasing unpaid invoices is an hour not spent billing work. Contractor Ace turns a walkthrough into a polished, signature-ready estimate in minutes, so you can send more bids in less time and win jobs before a competitor even calls back.
Getting paid faster is where the real money is. When you can accept card, ACH, and tap-to-pay on the spot and attach a pay link to every invoice, cash lands in your account days sooner instead of sitting in a stack of "net 30" paperwork. Fewer missed invoices means fewer dollars left on the table each month.
Because everything — estimates, invoices, payments, scheduling, and customer history — lives in one app, you stop paying for three or four disconnected tools and stop losing time re-entering the same information. Most solar business owners recoup the cost of Contractor Ace with a single job they'd otherwise have under-quoted or forgotten to bill.
