When a roof needs to be replaced and solar panels are in the mix, things get complicated fast. A lot of homeowners don't realize that the panels have to come completely off before the roofers can do their work - and then go back on correctly once the new roof is done. That process is called a detach and reset, and it's something we handle from start to finish.
This Greenwich, CT home is a good example of how these jobs go. The system spans multiple roof faces, with panels spread across different pitches and sections. Getting them down safely without damaging the equipment, and then getting them back up to manufacturer specs and current code standards - that takes real experience. It's not a job for a general contractor or the original roofing crew.
Here's what most people don't think about: your solar panels represent a serious investment. If they're removed incorrectly, you risk physical damage to the panels themselves, damage to the mounting hardware, and electrical issues that don't show up until later. We treat every detach and reset the same way we'd treat a new installation - no shortcuts, no guesswork.
We handle residential solar removal and reinstallation across Connecticut and the surrounding region. Whether it's a straightforward roof replacement like this one or something more complex, the goal is always the same - your system comes off clean, gets protected while the roofing work happens, and goes back on exactly right. Every connection checked. Every mounting point verified.
If you have solar and your roof is coming up for replacement, don't let your roofer figure out the panel side of things on the fly. That's where problems start. We work alongside roofing crews regularly and know exactly how to coordinate the process so nothing falls through the cracks.
