Solar panels mounted on a dark metal roof in Wellington

Re-roof and Solar Packages in Lower Hutt

We check the roof first, then fit panels that stay put in the wind, across Lower Hutt from Petone to Woburn.

Lower Hutt's mix of ageing original roofs and sunny valley streets makes it a natural place to do both jobs at once: new roof, panels planned in, one scaffold.

Re-roof and Solar Packages on Lower Hutt roofs

Wide valley streets in Petone, Alicetown and Epuni give many Lower Hutt roofs good open sun. The roof under the panels has to last as long as they do, so we check its condition before anything is fixed to it.

If your roof is near the end of its life and you want solar, doing them separately means paying for access twice and lifting panels off for the re-roof later.

That split matters on a roof. A valley home in Naenae or Taita usually needs fixings, flashings and coatings that will cope with age and rain. A bayside home in Eastbourne needs materials chosen for salt as well.

Lower Hutt exposure: Bayside homes from Petone foreshore round to Eastbourne are in the salt-spray zone; valley suburbs further inland are usually gentler, but hillside streets in Belmont and Stokes Valley catch more wind.

Building Code clause B2 sets a minimum 15 year durability for roof cladding; a new roof under the array matches the long life of the panels. (MBIE, Building Code clause B2 Durability)

What to look for

  • One scaffold and one disruption
  • No cost of lifting panels off later
  • Mounting points planned into the new roof

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 re-roof and Solar Packages.
