Safe Removals & Seamless Returns
When reinstalling solar panels, we take the time to get the details right. Every panel goes back exactly where it should be, perfectly aligned, completely secure and fully functional. We check mounting systems, flashing, sealants and hardware, ensuring nothing compromises your roof’s integrity or the solar system’s performance.
If there’s any damaged wiring or cabling in the way, we’ll flag it for repair by your solar electrician. We ensure a smooth and simple handover from roofing work to solar restoration, with our team keeping everything coordinated and mess-free from start to finish.
Do solar panels need to be removed for a roof restoration?
Yes—if you're restoring, repainting or replacing your roof, solar panels must be taken off to access the full roof surface. Leaving them in place risks overspray, uneven results or incomplete sealing. Once work is complete, they can be reinstalled professionally, ensuring both the roof and solar system are protected.
Will removing solar panels damage my roof?
Not if it’s done properly. An experienced roofing team will know how to detach solar mounts and panels without cracking tiles or puncturing your roof lining. Careful handling and the use of correct sealants during reinstallation help ensure your roof remains watertight and structurally sound.
Can solar panels be reinstalled in a new configuration?
Yes. If your original panel layout didn’t maximise sunlight exposure or if your roof has changed (e.g. after converting from tile to metal), panels can be repositioned for better efficiency. Just note that reconfiguration may involve rewiring or relocating your inverter, so it’s important to work with professionals who understand system design as well as roof structure.
