Why Professional Removal Matters
Solar systems are electrical systems connected to your home and the utility grid. Improper removal can damage equipment, cause leaks, fail inspections, or create safety hazards. Our licensed electricians ensure your system is removed and reinstalled safely, correctly, and in compliance with code.
Our Process
- Inspect and document system before removal of solar panels and racking.
- Safely detach and store panels and racking on-site.
- Roofing work is completed.
- Reinstall, seal, test, and bring system back online.
Scheduling & Weather
Scheduling is coordinated with your roofer and based on roof readiness and weather conditions. If weather delays roofing, panels are stored safely until reinstall can be completed.
Warranty
All solar detach and reinstall work is backed by a 15-year workmanship warranty, including a leak-free guarantee on all roof penetrations we install, during the reinstallation.
Working with Roofers & Insurance
We regularly coordinate with roofing contractors and insurance companies to ensure projects stay on schedule. If your roof is part of an insurance claim, we can provide the necessary documentation and assist with the solar portion of the process, alongside your roofer.
Service Area
We provide solar detach and reinstall services throughout North Carolina; areas such as the Triangle (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill), Wilmington, Leland, Bolivia, and all other surrounding communities, up and down the East Coast of North Carolina.
Solar Panel Removal & ReInstall FAQs
How long will I be without solar?
Most systems are reinstalled within 1–2 days after the new roof is finished. Depending on the weather, and your roofers schedule, the whole process should take about 1 week from start-to-finish.
Do you test the system before and after?
Yes. We perform and document a system check before removal, and again after the reinstallation, to confirm proper system operation.
Is this covered by insurance?
Often, yes — especially for storm damage related roof replacements.
What if it rains or the roof is delayed?
Your panels and racking are stored safely on-site, and reinstalled once the roof is ready and inclement weather is not a factor.
