​​Why Choose SunPower

Our solar and roofing teams are proud to install SunPower solar systems, the epitome of efficiency and reliability in the solar industry. We’ll walk you through the first step to going solar, getting your solar panel installed on your roof. No matter if you opt for the M-series or U-series, you can feel confident that you are getting the best in the market.

The Solar Panel Installation Process

Because we are roofers first, our installation process is not just about placing panels on your roof; it's backed by methods and knowledge that will prevent issues later down seen in many solar-only company services.

  1. Pegasus Flashing: This is your shield against the elements! We begin with the Pegasus flashing, a crucial component for roofs in good condition. By applying mastic in a U shape, we create an impenetrable barrier against water, ensuring that your installation is as durable during the wet months as it is efficient. If your home requires a re-roof, we will build and seal the entire roof first before installing your solar panels. ​

  2. Secure Foundation: Our experts meticulously install the racking system, anchoring it directly to the rafters with the flashing for unmatched stability. This solid foundation is crucial for the long-term performance and safety of your solar setup.
