Why panels come off for roof work in Tampa Bay

The roofer can't get to the shingles, tiles, underlayment or flashing under an array while it's sitting there, so the panels and mounting components come off first and go back once the roof is done.

Before anything comes down we assess and document the existing condition of the system.

More about solar panel removal and reinstall

The panels and mounting components are then removed and handled carefully, the same equipment is going back on the roof.

If you've already hired a roofing contractor we coordinate with them. If you haven't, roofing is available through our qualified roofing service partners, so the whole project can be handled in one place.

On the way back up we inspect the roof attachment points, where the system meets the roof, along with the mounting hardware. Then electrical reconnection and system performance checks to confirm it's working again after the move.

Sometimes taking an array apart turns up worn mounting hardware, damaged wiring or a component that needs repair. We repair the components that need it, and any extra repairs are discussed with you before we proceed.

Removal and reinstall is also for property improvements other than roofing, any time the array has to be out of the way.
