How long does it take?

Most removal and reinstallation timelines depend on your roofing schedule, but we coordinate everything to keep the process as fast and smooth as possible.

What happens after removal?

Your panels are safely stored until your roof work is completed, then we reinstall and test your system.

Will my roof be damaged?

No. Our process is designed to protect your roof and prevent leaks, and all work is handled by trained professionals.

Can I remove panels myself?

Can I upgrade my system during reinstall?

In many cases, yes. We can evaluate upgrade options when reinstalling your system.

Removal & Reinstall

Panel removal and reinstall in Pompano Beach

A lot of arrays in Broward were installed by companies that no longer answer the phone. The monitoring portal stopped reporting years ago, the login belonged to the installer, and nobody in the house has a string diagram or a list of serial numbers. Then the roof needs replacing, and all of that missing paperwork turns into a problem with a deadline attached to it.

Which is why the first hour on an orphaned system is documentation, not demolition. Modules get counted, serials recorded, positions mapped and strings traced before anything is unplugged. The roof gets photographed exactly as it stands. That record is what makes a faithful reinstallation possible, and it is what a warranty department, an insurance adjuster or the next owner of the house will eventually ask to see.

FPL serves Pompano Beach and credits exported energy at the retail rate, one to one. An orphaned system is not an unregistered one. There is an interconnection record with the utility, and the array that goes back up should match it, same module count and same inverter, or the difference should be declared rather than left for somebody to discover at the reconnection inspection.

The oceanfront adds its own layer. Out past the Airpark where the Goodyear Blimp keeps its base, salt reaches hardware under the modules that nobody has looked at since the day it went up. This is the one moment it is all within reach. Pompano Beach is planned work on a set calendar, covered from Orlando and Tampa, scheduled around the roofer rather than around a storm.

What We Check

On a Pompano Beach removal we get these right

Document before anything is unpluggedOn a system with no paperwork the first task is building a record: module count, serial numbers, positions, string routing and photographs of the roof as it stands. That document is what makes a faithful reinstallation possible, and what an adjuster, a warranty department or a future buyer will ask to see.

Tracing strings on an undocumented arrayWithout an as-built drawing, string routing gets traced physically before removal. Guessing at it during reinstallation is how an array ends up recombined, operating differently from the configuration on record and producing less than it should with nothing about it looking obviously wrong.

Monitoring nobody can log intoOrphaned systems commonly have monitoring tied to an account that belonged to a company that no longer exists. Reinstallation is the practical moment to establish access in the homeowner's name, because a system nobody can see is a system whose failed string goes unnoticed for a year or more.

Salt-side hardware, finally reachablePompano Beach is on the ocean, and the hardware under the modules has been sitting in salt aerosol since the day it went up. Rails, lugs, bolts and connector bodies get inspected and replaced where needed during reinstallation, while the deck is bare and the access costs nothing additional.

The FPL record still existsAn orphaned system is not an unregistered one. FPL has an interconnection on file and credits exports at the retail rate, one to one. The array that goes back up should match that record, and any difference in count, inverter or layout is declared before reconnection rather than after.

Permit and re-inspection in BrowardThis work generally requires a permit in Florida, issued either by the incorporated city or by unincorporated Broward County depending on the address. On systems with no original permit history, confirming the current requirement early matters more, because the reconnection will be inspected regardless of what came before.

FAQ

Solar service in Pompano Beach — common questions

My solar installer went out of business. Can the system still be removed and reinstalled?

Yes. Equipment does not stop being serviceable because the company that sold it closed. What is usually missing is documentation: string diagrams, serial lists, monitoring access and permit records. That gets rebuilt as part of the removal itself, by documenting the array in place, photograph by photograph, before anything is unplugged.

Can monitoring be restored if the installer held the account?

In many cases yes, because the hardware is still on the wall and it is the account that is inaccessible rather than the equipment. Reinstallation is the sensible moment to sort it out, with the system already being handled and commissioned. A system nobody can monitor is one where a dead string goes unnoticed for a year.

What if there are no permit records for the original installation?

It does not prevent the removal, but it is worth knowing before the roof is opened. The permit for removal and reinstallation is a separate application, and the reconnection will be inspected regardless of what history exists. The authority is either the city or unincorporated Broward County depending on the address, and that gets confirmed first.

Is the original workmanship warranty still worth anything?

A workmanship warranty is only as good as the company standing behind it, so when the installer is gone that coverage is effectively gone too. Manufacturer warranties on the modules and the inverter are separate and attach to the equipment itself, which is exactly why serial numbers and model records get collected during removal.

Can the array be reinstalled with fewer panels if some are damaged?

Physically yes, but it changes the string configuration and the system on record with FPL, and it lowers production permanently. A missing module in a series string affects the whole string, not only itself. If replacement is not practical, the reduced configuration should be designed deliberately and declared, not left as a gap on the roof.
