Optimize Your Roof and Solar System Performance

Many solar panel and inverter warranties require professional handling. DIY or improper removal can void your coverage, leaving you unprotected if issues arise later. Baker’s certified technicians follow manufacturer protocols to ensure your warranties remain intact.

Solar involves high-voltage electricity and roof-penetrating hardware. Improper handling can lead to roof leaks, electrical hazards, or reduced system output. As an electrical contractor with over 87 years of experience, Baker Home Energy brings unmatched precision and safety to every project. Our dual expertise in roofing and solar ensures a seamless, code-compliant process that protects both your home and your energy system.

Overdue Attention

During removal, our team inspects your system for wear, damage, outdated components, and replaces them. This is the perfect time to:

    • Clean your panels for improved efficiency

    • Replace old mounting hardware. Replacing racking and mounts is the right thing to do. Don’t let subpar installers put old, rusted equipment back on your new roof.

    • Is it time to upgrade your inverter(s), add solar, or add a battery? Now is the time to do it.

Reinstallation isn’t just putting panels back—it’s a chance to recalibrate your system for peak performance. We reassess layout, verify electrical connections, and test output to ensure everything is working better than before.

Upgrade During Service

If you already have solar, we’ll expertly remove and reinstall your panels during your reroof project. While you have workers on your roof this is the perfect time for upgrades.

  • Bundled Solar + Roofing Packages: Most solar installations require roofing work, so bundling saves time and money. 
  • Permitting & Inspection Handled In-House: We take care of all the red tape so you don’t have to. This is a good time to get it bundled together to add a battery, additional solar, or upgrade your inverters.
