The site itself has a lot of useful information and is very well laid out, which is a lot more than I can say for most sites that cater to engineers. It's clean, easy to read for the most part, and the coding is okay.
However, a few things:
1) You're somewhat cheapening the site with some silly SEO tricks (e.g. the header as pointed out earlier)....try to work them into your layout naturally.
2) If you can, try to make your Flash on the opening page keyboard accessible, for those who can't use a mouse. I can use a mouse, but there are a number of people with arthritic conditions that can't.
3) Forms that require Javascript should have a non-JS alternative...and in the case of the form that I saw, use black text instead of light grey. It's a bit too hard to read.
4) If a homeowner is looking for a qualified local installer, give them at least a crude search, unless you don't have (m)any installers available...in which case, the route you're taking would have to do in order to cover that up. Or take the homeowner portion out entirely for now.
These are all minor things, however...you definitely have a good start to something.
