Removal & Reinstallation

Removal & Reinstallation

If you need to replace or repair your roof but solar panels are in the way, we can help. Rehab Solar provides solar panel removal and reinstallation throughout San Diego County so you can complete necessary roof work without giving up your existing solar energy system.

First, we carefully remove the solar equipment so your roofing contractor has access to the work area. Once the roofing work is complete, we coordinate a convenient time to return, reinstall your solar system, and restore the equipment so the array can resume operation.

Coordinating Solar Work With Your Roofing Project

Roofing and solar work need to be coordinated because each contractor depends on the other completing a specific part of the project. Rehab Solar works directly with you and your roofing contractor so everyone understands when the solar equipment will be removed and when the roof will be ready for reinstallation.

Our installation professionals can also work with your insurance provider on the solar portion of the project when needed. Clear coordination helps avoid confusion about which work belongs to the roofer and which belongs to the solar contractor, and it keeps the project running smoothly.

  • Review the existing solar array and the roofing work being planned.
  • Remove the solar panels and related equipment needed for roof access.
  • Coordinate with you and your roofing contractor during the project.
  • Return once the roof is ready for solar reinstallation.
  • Reinstall the solar equipment and verify system operation.

What Happens During Reinstallation

Reinstallation is more than simply placing the panels back on the roof. The solar equipment must be returned to the proper locations and reconnected so the system operates correctly. If damaged or worn components are discovered along the way, our maintenance and repair service can address them.

If you’d like a broader evaluation of your system before or after the roof work, learn more about our solar inspection service. General information about solar energy is also available from the U.S. Department of Energy.

  • These guys were great! Trevor did a ground mount system for us. Layed out correctly for maximum sun exposure. Installation was quick and efficient. System is set up so I can monitor what each panel is producing. Trevor even keeps an eye on it to make sure it’s doing what it’s supposed to.
    Use these guys, you won’t be disappointed!
