Roof
Should you replace your roof before solar?
Only if it’s near the end of its life. If your roof will likely need replacing within the next several years, re-roof first — removing and reinstalling panels later costs extra. A sound roof with years left is ready for solar now.
Check these first
- Roof age and remaining life.
- Hail history and open insurance claims.
- Soft spots, leaks or missing shingles.
