sOLAR REMOVAL & REINSTALL
Need Roof Work but Already Have Solar? We Can Help.
Having solar panels shouldn't stand in the way of repairing or replacing your roof. When roofing work needs to be completed beneath an existing solar array, the panels may need to be temporarily removed, safely stored, and professionally reinstalled once the roof work is finished.

Why Proper Solar R&R Matters
Solar panels are designed to remain on a roof for many years. Removing them isn't simply a matter of taking panels off and putting them back on.
The solar array, mounting hardware, electrical connections, roof attachment points, flashing, and roofing system all work together. Improper removal or reinstallation can create unnecessary risks for both the roof and the solar system.
Professional Solar R&R helps:
Protect solar panels and equipment during roofing work
Give roofers proper access to the areas beneath the solar array
Protect the integrity of the new or repaired roofing system
Ensure roof penetrations and attachment points are handled correctly
Reduce the risk of leaks or damage caused by improper reinstallation
Return the solar system to service after the roofing project is complete
common Solar r&r Questions
protect your roof and solar investment
Need roof work under and existing solar system — our experienced crew handles every type of roof repair or replacement and solar R&R strategically, and professionally.
do all of my solar panels need to be removed?
For a full roof replacement, removing the entire roof-mounted array is commonly necessary. For a smaller repair, it may be possible to remove only the panels blocking access to the affected area. The amount of removal required depends on the solar layout, the location and scope of the roofing work, and the way the system is mounted.
how long will my solar system be turned off?
The exact timeline depends on the size and complexity of the solar system, the scope of the roofing project, weather conditions, scheduling, and whether any additional components or repairs are needed.Coordinating the solar and roofing portions of the project helps minimize unnecessary downtime.
what about my solar warranty or agreement?
Solar systems can be owned, financed, leased, or operated under different agreements, and warranty requirements can vary by manufacturer and installer.
Before work begins, homeowners should review any applicable solar contracts, financing agreements, manufacturer warranties, or installer requirements. During your consultation, one of our experts will assist you in understanding your agreement.
will my solar panels work the same after being reinstalled?
In most cases, your solar system should return to normal operation after the panels are professionally reinstalled and reconnected. Once the reinstallation is complete, the system is tested to confirm that it is functioning properly. If any pre-existing damage, aging equipment, or other issues are identified during the removal and reinstall process, additional repairs or replacement components may be recommended before the system can be fully restored.

Why It Matters
Why Timely Repair
Matters
Delaying roof repairs after a storm can lead to serious, costly damage — including mold, rot, and structural issues. Even a few missing shingles can open the door to bigger problems. Acting fast not only protects your property, but also simplifies the insurance claims process.

Don't Wait
The Risks of
Delaying Repairs
Even minor roof damage can escalate quickly. Here's what's at stake if you wait too long to get your roof inspected and repaired.
MOLD & ROT RISK
Even a small leak after a storm can quickly lead to mold growth inside your walls and attic. Mold remediation is far more expensive than a timely roof repair — and poses serious health risks to your family.
STRUCTURAL DETERIORATION
Water intrusion weakens roof decking, rafters, and support structures over time. What starts as a few missing shingles can turn into a full structural replacement if left unaddressed.
INSURANCE CLAIM COMPLICATIONS
Insurance companies may deny or reduce claims if damage is not reported promptly. Delaying also makes it harder to distinguish storm damage from general wear and tear.
HIGHER REPAIR COSTS
Small problems become large ones fast. A cracked shingle that costs a few hundred dollars to repair can become a multi-thousand-dollar structural job if water is allowed to seep in for weeks.
