D&R Solar Panels for Reroofing

Rising Above Industry Standards

When it’s time to replace a roof on a solar-equipped home, detach and reinstall (D&R) isn’t optional—it’s essential. A proper reroof requires full access to the roof deck, underlayment, and penetrations beneath the array. Attempting to reroof around panels risks leaks, improper flashing, and damage to modules, wiring, and racking. A professional D&R protects the roof system, preserves equipment warranties, and ensures the solar array performs as designed once the new roof is complete.

Timing: What to Expect?

A typical residential D&R tied to a reroofing project can take 1–3 days, depending on the array size, roof complexity, inspection timing, and utility requirements. Larger arrays, steep roofs, specialty roofing, and jurisdictions with multiple inspections may extend timelines. Coordinated scheduling minimizes energy production losses by keeping the array offline only as long as necessary.

  • Key Cost Considerations

    Cost typically include detach, hardware removal, handling, reinstallation, new flashings/attachments, testing/commissioning, and any permit/inspection fees. If an insurance claim is involved (e.g., hail or wind), D&R may be included in the scope; clear documentation and coordination streamline approvals. e.g., hail or wind).

  • Permits, Inspections, and Utility Coordination

    Local rules vary. Many municipalities require electrical and/or solar detach and reinstall (D&R), and some utilities require notification or inspection before re-energizing the system. A professional provider will obtain the necessary permits, schedule inspections, and coordinate any utility sign-offs, ensuring the system can return to service promptly and safely. Factoring permitting timelines into the reroof schedule reduces downtime.

  • Warranty Protection

    A thorough detach and reset (D&R) ensures both your roof and solar equipment remain protected under their workmanship warranties. The keys are proper handling according to manufacturer specifications, code-compliant flashing at penetrations, correct torque and weather sealing, and commissioning documentation that verifies functionality.

Our Process: From Shutdown to Commissioning

1. Getting Started

Once your roof project is scheduled, we’ll submit all details to our solar partner to arrange for the detachment and reset. This ensures your solar panels are safely handled by certified professionals.

2. Inspection & Estimate

Our solar partner will visit your home to inspect your solar setup. They’ll then prepare an estimate and send it directly to your insurance company for approval.

3. Scheduling Your Project

After approval, our solar partner will coordinate with us to set the best dates for removing and reinstalling your panels. We’ll ensure the solar work aligns perfectly with your roof installation timeline.

4. Detach & Reinstall

A certified solar crew will carefully remove your panels before the roof work begins, then reinstall them once your new roof is complete. We’ll keep you updated and let you know exactly when to expect the team.

What this means for you:

  • No need to hire your own solar company — we handle it for you.
  • All crews are licensed, certified, and insured.
  • You’ll always know when the solar team is scheduled and who to expect at your home.

Solar Detach & ReInstall FAQs

  • How long does the detach and reinstall take?

    The process typically takes 1–3 days, depending on the size of your solar system and the complexity of the roof. Panels are usually removed the day before or on the morning of your roof replacement, and reinstalled once the new roof is complete. Your solar provider will coordinate timing to ensure minimal downtime for your system.

  • Will my solar warranty stay intact?

    Yes. All work is performed by licensed and insured professionals, ensuring your solar warranty and roof warranty remain protected.

  • Will my power be out during this process?

    No. Your solar panels will be temporarily disconnected during the detach and reinstall, but your home will still draw electricity from the utility grid. This means you will not lose power, and once the roof work is complete, the panels will be safely reconnected and tested to ensure proper operations.

  • What happens with the insurance claim?

    The solar partner provides an estimate directly to your insurance company for approval, so everything is included in your claim process.

I got quotes from multiple companies and I went with Phoenix Storm Restoration. They showed up on time, protected my plants, scraped off the old roof, put on a new class 4 roof and left my yard as clean as they found it. The roof looks great and the job looks well done.
