Detach and reset
Homewood Solar Panel Removal and Reinstallation for Reroofs
What happens to the array while the roof is replaced? It is shut down, inventoried, stored and reinstalled on new flashing, then tested.
What Does a Proper Detach and Reset Include?
A roof cannot be replaced with solar panels in place, so the array has to come off and go back on. The question is how. Solar Panel Removal Homewood follows a defined sequence on every job. First the system is documented: photographs of the array, its layout and its wiring, along with a production reading. The electrical isolation follows, done in sequence. Only then are modules, rails and conduit unbolted, and each panel is labeled and entered on an inventory so it can return to its exact position. The equipment is stored securely while the roofing crew replaces the roof. After the roofing crew finishes, replacement attachments go in and each opening is re-flashed into the new roofing. Each module is rehung in its recorded spot, the wiring is restored, and a test verifies output. You receive documentation of the full job. Roofers booking on behalf of a homeowner receive the same record. Pricing is set per panel and confirmed by phone, usually within 48 hours, which makes it straightforward for Homewood homeowners and roofing companies alike to plan.

Inspection and price
We document the array and roof and provide a per-panel figure by phone, usually within 48 hours. Removal is then dated relative to the roofer's tear-off.
Detach
Power is isolated and the modules are unbolted. Each one receives a position label and a log entry, and the equipment goes into storage.
