"I am so glad that I found Malone solar. I needed someone to remove my solar panels and then reinstall them when I got a new roof. Their price was reasonable. They communicated well and did not charge me until the job was done. Their pricing also included some materials that needed replacing. Their workers were kind and respectful of my property and cleaned up when they were done. I don’t usually leave recommendations but MLine earned my respect. If I have any solar needs in the future they are the solar service I will be calling. Thank you MLine! You are the kind of company I want to do business with."

"Brooke White and her team have been a breath of fresh air in getting my solar installation on track with local inspections and the power company! She has gone above and beyond in this process and I would recommend her company for ANY of the areas they are involved. She is a wealth of knowledge in the solar field, and I will recommend Redrock Roof and Solar to EVERYONE! She and her team are there to answer questions all along the way, and are VERY RESPONSIVE to emails and texts. I wish I had chosen them in the first place, as I am sure my project would have been completed in more professional way."

"I initially had reservations about the concept of installing solar panels, but I was keen on getting an estimate and seeking professional advice. That's when I met Arvin. He provided me with a comprehensive walkthrough, clearly outlining the advantages of having solar panels. The entire process was straightforward, with each step being well-explained, leaving no room for surprises or unexpected outcomes. Now, a little over 5 months since the installation, I'm enjoying the benefits just as he promised. I want to extend my gratitude to Arvin for his professionalism and responsiveness. He was always there to address any questions I had, both during and after the installation process. Thank you, Arvin!"

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

Professionals use the same methods to install solar shingles that they do for asphalt shingles, so you’ll often see a similar installation timeline of one to two days. The amount of time required will depend on the size and slope of your roof and the number of shingles installed. Weather conditions can delay installation, as working on a roof is unsafe during high winds or heavy rain.

You can install solar panels on a flat or pitched roof, but keep in mind that they will need to rest at a 30- to 50-degree tilt for optimal sun absorption. It costs more to install solar panels on a flat roof because you will need to install a framing system and likely hire a structural engineer. If your roof has a pitch of more than 40 degrees, it may not be a good candidate for solar panels.

Installing solar panels involves drilling small holes in your roof to secure the solar panel mounting brackets. These brackets hold the solar panels in place and must withstand strong weather conditions so they’re secured into your roof. However, holes and screws are sealed to prevent leaking and further damage.

The average homeowner needs around 22 solar panels, but the exact number depends on your monthly energy consumption. Your solar professional should size your array to offset your consumption, meaning you’ll need fewer panels if you use below-average amounts of electricity, or more than 22 if you use above-average amounts of electricity. The number of panels also depends on the output of each panel. The average is around 400 watts, but you might need more panels if you install less capable equipment. Since there are so many variables, you should have a professional size your system.

Solar panels have a life span between 10 and 40 years, depending on the type of panel. For example, monocrystalline panels can last up to 40 years, while thin-film ones only last between 10 and 20 years. The longevity also comes down to keeping up with solar panel repairs and their related costs .
