The Answer: A Solar Panel Removal Specialist

Solar panels should be removed by a company that specializes in solar panel removal and reinstallation, not your roofer, not your original solar installer (unless they offer this service), and definitely not a general handyman.

Your Options for Solar Panel Removal

When you need solar panels removed for a roof replacement, you have several options:

1. Solar Removal Specialists (Recommended)

Companies that focus specifically on solar panel removal and reinstallation for roof replacements. They work with homeowners and coordinate with roofing contractors.

Best option for most homeowners

2. Your Original Solar Installer

Some solar installation companies offer removal services. However, many don't, or they charge premium prices because it's not their core business.

Often expensive and slow to schedule

3. Your Roofing Contractor (Not Recommended)

Most roofers won't touch solar panels, and for good reason. They're not trained, not insured for solar work, and don't want the liability.

High risk of damage and voided warranty

What to Look for in a Solar Removal Company

Not all solar removal services are equal. Here's what to verify before hiring anyone:

Specialized Experience: Look for a company that specifically offers removal/reinstallation for roof replacements, not just general solar work.

Proper Insurance: Verify they carry liability insurance that specifically covers solar panel work. Ask for proof.

Roofer Coordination: They should have experience working with roofing contractors and coordinating project timing.

Transparent Pricing: Get a clear quote that includes removal, storage, reinstallation, and any necessary new hardware.

Warranty Protection: Confirm their work won't void your solar warranty. Ask how they document the removal process.

Local Presence: A local company can respond faster and coordinate better with local roofing contractors.

Questions to Ask Before Hiring

When evaluating solar removal companies, ask these questions:

How many roof replacement solar removals have you done?
Do you coordinate directly with my roofing contractor?
What's included in your price? Any potential additional costs?
How do you store the panels during the roof work?
What happens if a panel is damaged during removal?
How quickly can you schedule the work?
Will this affect my solar warranty?
