If you are considering solar panel installation and need a new roof, it is recommended that you have the roof replaced first. This will ensure that the new roof and solar panels last for the same amount of time. Additionally, solar panels can be integrated into the roof, which improves the aesthetics of your home and reduces the risk of damage to the roof from mounting hardware. Furthermore, the 30% ITC tax credit can be applied to the cot of the roof as well.
If you already have solar panels installed and need a new roof, the process can be more complex. The solar panels will need to be removed before the roof can be replaced, and then reinstalled after the new roof is in place. It’s essential to work with a qualified solar installer and roofing contractor who can coordinate the installation of your solar panels and new roof to ensure that the process is done safely and properly, minimizing any disruption to your energy production.
It is always recommended that you use the same company, such as Walton, for your roof and solar project.
