Solar Panel Removal and Refit in Kapiti Coast

If panels on a Kapiti roof need lifting for a re-roof or a leak repair, we remove, store and refit them, using fixings suited to the coastal exposure.

Solar Panel Removal and Refit on Kapiti Coast roofs

Sunnier inland Kapiti roofs suit solar well. We check the roof first, and on beachside homes we make sure the mounting hardware and fixings suit the coastal exposure.

When the roof under a solar array leaks or needs replacing, the panels have to come off first. Coordinating a solar company and a roofer separately is slow and leaves gaps in responsibility.

Many Kapiti homes were built as beach houses and later extended, so we see mixed roofs, older iron next to newer additions, and junctions between them that need careful flashing.

BRANZ notes that solar panels are fixed through the roof to the framing, so their penetrations must be flashed as part of the roof. (BRANZ, Replacing a profiled metal roof)

What to look for

• Leaks around solar mounting penetrations
• Re-roofing or roof restoration under an existing array
• Rust or damage hidden under panels

Every job follows the same steps: we look at the roof, photograph what we find, send a written quote, then send photos of the finished work. More about solar Panel Removal and Refit.
