Reroofing with Solar Panels

If you’re considering reroofing your home and already have solar panels installed, it’s crucial to understand the importance of professional removal and reinstallation services. At SolarFIX, we specialize in safely removing your existing solar panels and reinstalling them after your new roof is in place. Here’s what you need to know about the process and how we can assist you every step of the way.

Why You Need to Remove Solar Panels Before Reroofing

1. Protecting Your Investment

Solar panels are a significant investment, and removing them carefully ensures they remain in excellent condition. Professionals will handle the delicate wiring and mounting systems to prevent any damage during the reroofing process.

2. Roof Integrity

Reroofing involves significant work, including removing old roofing materials and installing new ones. Having your solar panels removed beforehand allows roofers to address any underlying issues, ensuring a solid foundation for your new roof.

3. Cost Savings

Reinstalling solar panels after reroofing can be more cost-effective than trying to work around them. If you need roof repairs in the future, you’d face additional costs for panel removal and reinstallation. By coordinating these projects, you save both time and money.
