"Kapili Roofing Daniel Nakamura promptly responded to my request to have roof inspected, in spite of his heavy workload because of a wind storm. He inspected roof and noted the dislodged panels were from under two solar panels. He asked that I contact the solar panel contractor and have the solar panel removed and he would coordinate to have his roofers replace panels once the solar panels were removed. Once I obtained date/time for Solar Panel removal, Kapili roofing coordinated their workmen to come and replace roofing panels. Whole operation to have Solar Panel removed and Roofing Panels Repaired/Replace took only about 2 hours to complete. In the meantime the Kapili roofers also repaired three smaller shingles with no extra cost. Kapili Roofers were friendly, professional, and very efficient workers. Only negative comment I have is that their prices are on the high end, but I found it was worth it."

"Pipeline Plumbing Oahu L.L.C. is hands down the best choice when it comes to replacing a water heater in Oahu. Their team was prompt, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. From the initial inspection to the final installation, everything was smooth and hassle-free. They answered all my questions patiently and made sure I understood how to operate the new unit. The craftsmanship and attention to detail were top-notch, and they even cleaned up the area perfectly afterward. It's rare to find such reliability and quality these days. I highly recommend them for any plumbing needs—truly five-star service all around!"

Solar Panels FAQs, answered by experts

It’s possible that installing solar panels can lead to mold on the roof. The panels themselves are not the issue. Problems caused by improper installation—such as roof leaks and mounts that aren’t sealed properly—can cause mold. Another potential cause of mold is debris accumulation under panels, which can trap moisture. If you live somewhere with extreme snow, rain, or hail, your home could be more prone to mold.

Solar shingles typically last between 20 and 30 years, a lifespan comparable to that of traditional solar panels and standard asphalt shingles. The exact duration depends on the manufacturer and the quality of the installation. Because solar shingles are a newer technology, there is limited data on their actual long-term performance. Factors that can impact their durability and longevity include weather conditions, roof ventilation, and regular maintenance. To extend the life of your solar shingles, you should conduct regular inspections and cleaning, and make any necessary repairs as quickly as possible.

Insurance companies aren’t against solar panels, but they may have concerns about the risks and costs of insuring solar. The type of policy, where you live, and the insurance company itself matter. Extreme weather can damage solar panels, and faulty installation or electrical malfunctions pose a fire risk—this, in turn, can increase insurance company liability and payouts. However, you’re likely to keep coverage as long as you have a pro install the solar system, keep it maintained, can pass a solar panel inspection, and update your homeowners policy to include solar.

You shouldn’t hook up a solar panel directly to a battery. That can damage the solar battery and your appliances over time. Instead, install a charge controller between your solar panel and solar battery. Charge controllers regulate voltage, prevent overcharging, and minimize the amount of electrical current to protect your battery from voltage spikes.

Yes, solar panel installation will require permits. The required permits will depend on where you live, as some states and cities have solar-specific permits, while others only require electrical permits to connect to the grid. In either case, it’s best to hire a reputable solar installer in your area, as a representative should handle all of the necessary permitting for you and will include the cost of the permits in your initial solar estimate.
