Solar Detach and Reset Work We Take On in New Lenox

A new roof under solar is a sequencing job. Panels off. Roof on. Panels back. Pick the situation that matches yours, or call and describe it in a sentence.

Five Steps From First Call to a Working System

  1. You call with the basics

    Panel count, roof age, your roofer's timing and whether you own the system or lease it. That is enough to get started. If there is an insurance claim, mention it here.

  2. We look at the array

    The panels, racking, wiring and roof get checked and photographed. We take a production reading so there is a before number to compare against later.

  3. You get a firm price

    An itemized quote by phone, usually within 48 hours. Once you say yes, we set the detach date against your roofer's tear-off and pencil in the reset behind it.

  4. Panels come off and go into storage

    Power is cut and the array is disconnected. Modules, rails and conduit come down, each piece tagged and logged, then stored until the roof is finished. Your roofer gets the deck.

  5. Panels go back on and get tested

    New mounts and fresh flashing at every penetration. Each panel lands back in its marked position, the wiring is joined up and output is confirmed. You keep a written record of the work.

Why New Lenox Homeowners and Roofers Call Us

A detach and reset fails in predictable ways. Sloppy wiring work. Paperwork the adjuster cannot use. A vague price. Leaky mounts. We built the job to avoid all four.

  • The electrical side done carefully

    Shutdown, disconnect and reconnection follow a set order every time. No roofer improvising with live wiring. When the panels go back, the connections are checked before anything is energized.

  • Paperwork built for a claim

    A written scope with photos that goes to the adjuster alongside the roof claim, sent by you or your roofer. The scope is spelled out line by line. You stay in control of the claim from start to finish.

  • A quote with every line shown

    Taking it down, storing it, putting it back, flashing and parts: each one is priced separately. You agree to the price before work starts. No surprises on the invoice.

  • Mounts sealed for the new roof

    Every attachment gets new flashing, and each penetration is sealed to the roofing manufacturer's details. The fresh shingles stay dry, and your roofer's work stays protected.

Detach and Reset in New Lenox and Nearby Will County Towns

New Lenox sits where I-355 meets I-80, with US-30 Lincoln Highway cutting across town. That puts us a short drive from most of eastern Will County and the southwest Cook County suburbs. Subdivisions built in the same few years tend to need new roofs in the same few years, and plenty of those roofs carry solar. Chicago-area winters, heavy snow and spring hail all wear shingles down under an array, so reroof season brings a steady run of detach and reset calls from Mokena, Frankfort, Lockport, Joliet, Homer Glen and the towns around them.

Same crew, same steps

Detach and Reset Questions From New Lenox Homeowners

Straight answers to what people ask before the panels come off.

My panels are leased or on a power purchase agreement. Can I still hire you?

Often, yes, but read your agreement first. Many leases and PPAs say who may touch the equipment and require notice to the leasing company before a removal. Call them, ask what they need, and then call us with the answer so we can plan around it.

While the panels are down, can you add more or move the array?

No. Our job is to put the same system back exactly where it came off. Adding panels, changing the layout or adding batteries is outside what we do, so plan any of that with a company that offers it before your reset date.

Does taking the panels off cancel my solar warranty?

You keep all of your original manufacturer warranties. We remove and reinstall the equipment following the manufacturer's handling instructions, and the new mounts are backed by our 10-year roof penetration warranty. If your installer's paperwork has its own conditions, read them or send us a copy before the detach.

What decides the price of removing and reinstalling my panels?

Mostly the number of panels, the type of racking, how steep and high the roof is, and how much conduit runs across it. Storage time and any damaged parts found along the way also play in. We look at all of it and give you one firm, itemized number by phone, usually within 48 hours.

Will a detach and reset affect my net metering?

In most cases the agreement stays as it is, because the same system goes back in the same place. Where your utility requires notice of the work or a fresh approval to operate, we flag it before the detach so you can take care of it. Check your interconnection paperwork for anything specific to your account.
