Help Wanted!

I'm hoping to get going on my solar power project soon, and I'm looking for recommendations for contractors. I need, probably, a roofer and an electrician, although an all-around handyperson would probably work, too. The project involves reroofing the south side of my roof with a combination of Unisolar solar shingles and regular shingles, wiring them together in the attic, and running wires to the basement where they would connect with a charge controller, batteries, and inverter, and then to my electrical load center.

If any local readers know of people able and willing to do such work, please e-mail me. I'm looking for people willing to do something a little different, and who will make sure that I have a safe system which will pass inspection. Hopefully they can show me how to do some of the grunt work (like connecting the wires in the attic), but I don't really trust myself to do the whole job properly.

Thanks.
