Q: Will solar panels void my roof warranty?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re planning. Then, hire a professional solar installer that follows roofing manufacturer instructions and protects the roof during installation.</p></div>

Q: Will solar panels put holes in my roof?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re secured into your roof. However, holes and screws are sealed to prevent leaking and further damage.</p></div>

"Scott and Grant were extremely helpful in my situation. They are honest and don't make excuses. They got the job done in a timely manner, even after an unneeded 3 hour phone and email tennis match with another company who should've carried the lifetime warranty. They found a replacement thru West River Electric, went and picked it up and installed it. We all learned something today. Thanks again for your diligence and hard work."
