Know who is working on your solar system

Not everyone who offers to move or repair solar panels holds the right license for that work. It matters most during a roof replacement, when panels come down and go back up.

Licensed solar contractor on every job.

Ask this first

"Which license covers the solar work you're doing?"

A roofing license covers the roof. Disconnecting, removing, remounting and recommissioning a solar system is solar and electrical work. Unlicensed work can lead to leaks, damaged equipment, failed inspections and voided warranties.

Before anyone touches your panels

  • Ask who will actually do the solar work, not just who sold the job.
  • Ask for the contractor's state license details.
  • Check that the license is active and covers solar work.
  • Ask whether any of the work will be subcontracted.
  • Get the removal, reinstall or repair scope in writing.
  • Confirm who recommissions the system and checks it is producing.
