The Problem: Roofing + Solar Doesn’t Mix Without the Right Team

**Most homeowners run into the same issue:**

Roofers won’t touch solar systems due to liability and electrical risks

Solar companies don’t handle roofing

Coordinating two contractors leads to delays, added costs, and miscommunication And if the process isn’t handled correctly, it can result in:

• Roof leaks
• System damage
• Voided warranties
• Reduced solar performance

Solar panels must be professionally removed before roofing work begins and properly reinstalled afterward to ensure safety and performance.

We manage the entire process in-house:

What Is Solar Panel Removal \& Reinstallation?

Also known as a solar detach and reset, this process involves temporarily removing your solar system so roofing work can be completed safely.

Before Roofing (Detach Phase)

• Safe system shutdown and disconnection
• Removal of solar panels and racking
• Protection and storage of all components
• Inspection of roof penetrations and flashing

After Roofing (Reset Phase)

• Installation of new flashing and mounts
• Reinstallation of panels and hardware
• Electrical reconnection and system testing
• Verification of energy production and monitoring

This ensures your new roof is protected and your solar system performs exactly as it should.

When Do You Need Solar Panel Removal?

You may need a solar reroof in San Diego if you’re dealing with:

• Aging or failing roof systems
• Roof leaks or storm damage
• Insurance-covered roof replacements
• Upgrading roofing materials
• Selling your home and need inspections

Because solar systems are directly integrated into your roof structure, they must be removed before any major roofing work can begin.
