"We found this wonderful faith based company online and after a phone call we agreed to an appointment for a free no obligation estimate. We agreed to their very fair prices as well as easy as pie getting us booked. They gave us a date and said we?ll be there at eight sharp. A nice looking young man shows up (10 mins early?. Points for them already) and when I open the door he?s ready with booties to cover his boots, (More points) I thought that was thoughtful. Drop clothes down (points) he begins. Job done splendidly in a reasonable time, even with the extras I asked of him. Sat down after and started chatting it up and finding out that we are veterans offered us a 10% discount on the total bill. (Biggest Points)! Use these guys please, they are a class act. Passing on their name to a realtor friend of ours. Thanks again, really appreciate everything."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

In most cases, installing solar panels will not void your roof warranty. To keep roof warranties intact, check your written warranty or call the manufacturer to ask about clauses regarding roof penetrations. You can also protect yourself by getting written approval or a modified warranty that specifically allows the solar installation type you’re planning. Then, hire a professional solar installer that follows roofing manufacturer instructions and protects the roof during installation.

No, you cannot turn on a new solar system before inspection. The inspector checks that the system is correctly connected to the grid and that safety components and features are in place. This process prevents problems on the electrical grid and offers protection against fire in your home. 

Your local utility company may also require inspection documentation before you can connect to the grid. An inspection can ensure solar power efficiency and determine how you might increase it.

The best way to know if your roof can support solar panels is to hire a structural engineer. They’ll look at your roof and approve the design of your solar panel system or suggest changes. The best roofing for solar panels is made from strong materials like asphalt shingles and metal, but tile and gravel will work. Softer materials like thatch or temporary structures are not a good fit.

Solar panels can protect your roof from hail, as they can withstand hail up to 1 inch in diameter that falls up to 50 mph. Your solar panels may experience damage if the hailstones are bigger and travel faster. Your roof can still suffer hail damage, and it’s essential to look for signs and repair issues right away. Roof damage can lead to leaks and water damage inside your home.

Solar water heating systems are not one-size-fits-all. You'll likely work with a team of experts to get the job done—including solar panel installers, plumbers, and water heater installers. A specialist will help you decide if a passive or active system is best for your local weather, home layout, roof stability, and your budget.
