Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about roof-specific solar solutions

Which roof type is best for solar?

While metal roofs offer the easiest installation, all roof types can accommodate solar panels effectively. The best choice depends on your existing roof and energy needs.

Will solar panels damage my roof?

Not with our installation methods. We use specialized mounting systems that protect your roof's integrity, and all installations come with a 25-year warranty against leaks.

How long does installation take?

Most residential installations take 1-3 days depending on roof type and system size. Asphalt and metal roofs are fastest, while tile roofs require more time for careful installation.

Can I install solar on an old roof?

We recommend roofs have at least 10 years of life remaining. If your roof is older, we offer roof+solar bundle packages that combine both installations for maximum savings.
