Why Solar Panels Need Removal for Reroofing
Your roof is the foundation for your solar system, so maintaining it is crucial. If your roof requires repairs or replacement, your solar panels must be temporarily removed. Why?
- Protection: Solar panels can be damaged during roofing work if left in place.
- Access: Roofers need clear access to ensure proper installation and long-term durability of your new roof.
- Warranty Compliance: Many roofing warranties and contracts require panel removal for roof work.
At Allterra Solar, we understand how important it is that your panels—and your roof—are in top shape. That’s why we offer seamless removal and reinstallation services designed to work in harmony with your roofing project.
Cost Considerations & Timeline
- Cost: The cost of solar panel removal and reinstallation varies depending on the size of your system and the complexity of your setup. We provide upfront, detailed quotes with no hidden fees.
- Timeline: A typical removal takes 1-2 days, while reinstallation occurs shortly after your roofing project is complete. Timelines can vary depending on roof size and contractor schedules, but we’ll work closely with your roofer to minimize delays.
