A new roof and your solar, handled by one team.
Replacing a roof under solar panels usually means juggling a roofer, a solar company, and an insurance adjuster. We coordinate all of it — one schedule, one point of contact, zero finger-pointing.
Why bundle your roof with your solar contractor?
When separate companies handle your roof and your panels, timelines slip, warranties get murky, and each blames the other if anything leaks. Managing both trades under one plan protects your home and your solar investment.
Hail Claim Experience
Colorado is one of the most hail-prone states in the country. We know what adjusters need and how solar affects your claim.
Seamless Scheduling
Panels come off, the roof goes on, panels go back — one coordinated timeline with no weeks-long gaps.
Warranties That Hold Up
With one team responsible for roof penetrations and racking, there's no gap between roofing and solar warranties.
Replacing your roof is also the perfect time to add or upgrade solar — the mounting work is already being done.
Your roof replacement, start to finish
From inspection to final solar re-commissioning, we manage every step so you never have to referee between contractors.
Inspection & Estimate
We assess your roof's condition, document damage for insurance, and provide a clear scope and price.
Insurance & Permits
We supply the documentation your carrier needs — including solar detach/reset costs — and pull permits.
Detach, Roof, Reset
Panels are safely removed and stored, the new roof is installed, and your system is reinstalled to spec.
Inspection & Power On
We pass final inspections, re-commission your solar, and verify everything is producing as it should.
One crew for your roof and your solar.
Replacing a hail-damaged roof? We coordinate roofing and solar together so your system is back online fast — and insurance paperwork is handled.
Will insurance cover my new roof?
If your roof was damaged by hail or wind, homeowners insurance typically covers replacement — including the cost to detach and reset your solar panels.
We work directly with you and your adjuster, providing itemized estimates that carriers recognize, so the solar side of your claim doesn't get shortchanged.
How do I know if I have hail damage?
Hail damage isn't always visible from the ground — bruised shingles, cracked panels, and dented flashing often go unnoticed until leaks appear months later.
After any major storm, a free inspection is worth it. We'll document what we find honestly: if your roof is fine, we'll tell you so.

How Seed Solar compares
Not all solar help is equal. Here's how a local, licensed solar specialist stacks up against national solar companies and general electricians.
| What matters | Seed SolarLocal Colorado specialists | National solar companies | General electricians |
|---|---|---|---|
| Locally owned in Colorado | Locally owned and operated in Colorado | Often headquartered out of state | May be local, but not solar-focused |
| Licensed solar specialists | Licensed and insured — solar is what we do | Work is often subcontracted | General wiring, not PV-specific |
| Insurance-certified detach & reset | Estimates carriers can approve | Rarely a core service | Rarely offered |
| Warranty coverage | 25-yr panel & inverter, 15-yr workmanship | Varies by company and contract | Typically labor warranty only |
| Transparent pricing | You see exactly what your system costs | Financing can include dealer fees | Fair rates, limited solar scope |
| Utility & permit paperwork handled | Permits, interconnection, and rebates handled | Varies by company | Often left to the homeowner |
| A real person when you call | Talk to the local team that did the work | Support is often a national call center | Reachable, but solar issues may be referred out |
