"We will certainly call them again!"

“Roark solar recently repaired some leaking panels for us. We recommend this company to others as they came out within a couple of days, assessed the condition of our panels and then proposed a reasonable plan and then completed the work that day. He was friendly and professional and solved our issue with one visit. We will certainly call them again!”

Understanding Solar Services Frequently Asked Questions

  • Why do solar panels need to be removed for reroofing?
    Because roofers can’t properly replace underlayment or shingles beneath solar arrays. Removing the system ensures full roof coverage and watertight integrity.
  • What types of solar systems do you service?
    We remove and reinstall all types of solar panels: solar pool heating, solar electric (PV), and solar hot water.
  • How does a solar hot water system work?
    A roof-mounted solar collector captures sunlight and transfers heat to a storage tank using a closed-loop fluid system. When sunlight is limited, a built-in electric backup element keeps your water hot—so you’ll never run out.
