Roof replacement

Replacing your roof? Plan the solar part first

Your roofer can replace shingles, but your solar array needs a licensed solar contractor to disconnect, remove, store and reconnect it safely. Before work starts, ask who will handle the solar side and check their license.

Get a price range for removal and reinstall in about a minute, then book a written quote when you're ready.

Meet the founder

Meet Daniel, the founder you'll actually talk to

Daniel Brooks started Harborlight Solar after years on install crews, wanting to give homeowners straight answers instead of sales scripts. He still visits most homes himself before a quote goes out.

"If solar isn't a good fit for your roof or your budget, I'll tell you. The work we turn down matters as much as the work we take on."

How it works

How a project works

No surprises: you'll know what happens at every step and who is doing it.

  1. Free consultation

    We visit, look at your roof, shading and energy bills, and listen to what you want from solar.

  2. Honest design and written quote

    You get a clear, itemised quote with expected output and payback, not a high-pressure pitch.

  3. Permits and installation

    We handle permits and utility paperwork, then our own crew installs. Most homes take one to three days.

  4. Inspection, handover and service

    After inspection we walk you through monitoring, and we stay on call for service in the years ahead.

What neighbors say

Sample reviews written for this demo, showing how customer feedback would appear.

Daniel talked us out of a bigger system than we needed. The battery kept our fridge and lights running through a two-day outage.

Common questions

Quick answers

Yes. We regularly diagnose and repair systems we didn't install, from inverters and microinverters to pool and water heating collectors.

Most homes take one to three days on the roof once permits are approved. Permitting and utility approval usually take a few weeks.

Often, yes. We'll check your inverter, panel and wiring and explain the options that fit your current setup.

No. The instant removal estimate gives a realistic range. We confirm the final price in writing after a site visit.
