The solar industry has recently exploded in the entire country. It is advisable to have a new roof or underlayment installed prior to the solar panels. This will eliminate the risk of any future roof leaks.
Do you currently have solar panels? Are you wondering if they need to be removed for a new roof? The answer is yes. Most solar panels are either bolted to or mounted on the existing roofing material and must be removed before a new roofing project has started.
Should your roofing company remove the solar panels? No. A licensed solar company should. Because solar panels are charged using a type of antifreeze, they will have to be removed and reinstalled by a solar panel company who can insure that the job is accomplished properly.
