A SEPARATE SERVICE. A COORDINATED PROJECT.Your roofer needs a clear roof.
Your roofer needs a clear roof.
We make the solar part manageable.
You may already have a roofing contract, a tear-off date, and your new shingles picked out. Then comes the question: who removes the solar panels and puts them back?
That is exactly what this service is for. Team All Star handles the agreed solar removal and reinstallation scope while your roofing company handles the roof. You do not have to purchase a roof replacement from us to ask for this service.
We review the existing equipment, roof access, roofing schedule, mounting details, and return-to-service needs before preparing your proposal. The goal is a clear handoff between two trades, with each company’s responsibilities understood before work begins.

One practical sequence for your project.
Your roofer completes the roof
Your roofing company carries out its contracted work. We coordinate around its schedule and discuss the roof material, mounting and flashing interface, access, and readiness for solar reinstallation.
Reinstall and check operation
Once the roof is ready, we reinstall suitable existing equipment using the agreed compatible mounting approach, complete our electrical scope, and check system operation before the solar handoff.
WHAT WE REVIEW WITH YOU
More than taking panels off the roof.
Existing-system review
Panel count, equipment type, visible condition, operating status, monitoring access, and available system records. Existing faults are identified as part of the review rather than assumed to be new removal damage.
Removal and handling
The shutdown, removal sequence, equipment identification, access, and protection plan are set out for your project. Storage location and any off-site transport must be agreed in the written scope.
Scheduling with your roofer
We ask for the roofing contact and anticipated dates. Removal and return visits are coordinated with the roofing work; weather, concealed repairs, inspection timing, or changed dates can affect the sequence.
Mounting and roof interface
We review the new roof material, attachment points, flashing approach, and compatibility of existing racks and hardware. Equipment that cannot be safely reused is discussed and priced before additional work is approved.
Reinstallation and reconnect
Suitable existing panels and associated components are returned under the agreed scope. Tell us about planned layout changes, equipment upgrades, or a different roof assembly before the proposal is finalized.
Operating checks and handoff
We review operation before removal when accessible and check the agreed system after reinstallation. Any unresolved equipment issue, monitoring access requirement, or approval needed before restart is explained.
CLEAR RESPONSIBILITIESYour roofer owns the roofing scope.

We own our solar scope.
Your roofing company handles its roof installation. We handle the solar removal, equipment protection, reinstallation, attachments, flashing, and electrical work. Our work carries a 10-year workmanship warranty.

Would you prefer one company for both trades? Our Roof + Solar service includes roof replacement as a separate, combined project option.

COMMON QUESTIONSAlready hired your roofer?
Already hired your roofer?
You are in the right place.
Send your roofer’s contact and planned roofing date. We will organize the solar removal and return visits with you.
Can I use this service if I already hired a roofing company?
Yes. This service is designed for homeowners using their own roofer. Team All Star handles the agreed solar removal and reinstallation while your roofing company performs the roof work. You do not need to purchase a roof replacement from us.
What is included in a removal and reinstallation quote?
Your proposal identifies the system review, removal, handling and storage arrangements, return visit, compatible mounting approach, electrical work, and operating checks included for your property. Additional parts, repairs, off-site storage, or design changes are included only when specified.
Will you coordinate dates with my roofer?
We discuss the removal and return sequence using your roofer’s schedule and contact information. Share any tear-off date, roof-completion target, access restriction, or inspection milestone before booking. Dates are confirmed for the project and may change if roofing or weather conditions change.
Where do the panels go while the roof is being replaced?
The protection and storage plan is agreed before removal. Tell us what secure, accessible space is available. On-site storage, off-site transport, and responsibility while equipment is stored are confirmed in the written scope; off-site storage is not automatically included.
Can all of my existing equipment be reused?
Not automatically. We review the panels, rails, attachments, wiring, and other affected equipment for condition and compatibility with the proposed roof. If something needs repair or replacement, we explain the issue and the additional scope before proceeding.
Who is responsible for the roof and solar warranties?
Your roofer is responsible for its roofing scope. Team All Star is responsible for our agreed solar work under our written terms. Mounting, flashing, access, and the interface between the two scopes should be resolved before work begins. We do not take over another company’s roof warranty.
What if the solar is leased or under a PPA?
Tell us who owns or services the system. The system owner may require authorization, a particular contractor, or a specified process before removal and reinstallation. Review those requirements before scheduling; a homeowner request alone may not authorize work on provider-owned equipment.
How much will removal and reinstallation cost?
We quote the actual property and system. Panel count, roof height and access, equipment condition, mounting compatibility, storage, electrical work, and scheduling needs affect the scope. Send your location, roofer information, approximate panel count, and planned dates for an estimate.
Will the panels generate power while they are off the roof?
The affected array is not generating normally while it is removed. We coordinate the return after your roofer confirms the roof is ready and review the steps needed for restart, including any applicable approval or unresolved equipment issue.
