Solar panel removal, reinstall & repair in Orange County
Orange County is the northern end of our home route and we are in it constantly. Roofs run from 1950s bungalows near downtown Orlando to tile-and-truss builds out by Lake Nona, so the same size array can be two very different jobs. A lot of the county sits on OUC rather than the big statewide utility, which changes where the reconnection paperwork goes.

What do you need help with in Orange County?
New roof: panels off and back on
Text the roofer's tear-off date and a photo of the array from the street.
The panels come off before tear-off and go back on new flashed mounts after the roof passes inspection. Orange County is on our weekly route, so the visit is lined up with your schedule.

Permits, power and what the roofs are actually like
Orange County permitting runs through either the City of Orlando or the county building department depending on which side of a line the house sits, and the two do not want the same paperwork. The roof stock is genuinely split: pre-1970 bungalows around Colonialtown and Audubon Park with small roof planes and original decking, against Lake Nona and Horizon West where everything is engineered truss and concrete tile from the last fifteen years. On the old houses the question is always what the deck looks like once the array is off, because nobody has seen it since the panels went up. On the new ones it is tile breakage and getting the reinstall approved.
Most Orange County calls are re-roofs where the homeowner found out about the panels a week before tear-off. Second most: an OUC customer whose system came back on but never got reconnected properly on paper.
Central Florida
What solar looks like in this part of Florida
Central Florida is where the state's solar boom hit suburban tract housing hardest. Whole subdivisions went up between 2015 and 2022 with panels included in the mortgage, sold by dealer networks that no longer exist. The roofs are young, the arrays are young, and the failures we find are almost never the panels: they are inverters, optimizers and attachments that were never torqued properly by a crew that was paid by the install.
What we get called for
Orange County roofs, specifically
- ✓The reinstall is permitted through Orlando or the county building department, and in Florida only a licensed solar or electrical contractor can pull that permit.
- ✓Inland, so the failures are rail condition, flashing at the mounts and torque, not corrosion.
- ✓Power here comes from OUC and Duke Energy, and we file the reconnection and net-metering paperwork with whichever one holds your account.
- ✓Never the old mounts. Every attachment on your new roof is new and flashed, so your roofer's warranty stays intact.
- ✓Any brand, any original installer, in business or not. Most systems we touch were put up by companies that are gone.

FAQ
Orange County: common questions
Do you remove and reinstall solar panels in Orange County?
Yes. Orange County is on our home route, so this is normal week-to-week work for us. One crew, no travel surcharge, and we work directly with your roofer's schedule.
Who pulls the permit in Orange County?
We do. The reinstall needs a solar permit from Orlando or the Orange County building department, depending on the address, and in Florida only a licensed solar or electrical contractor can pull it. We handle it and meet the inspector.
Which utility handles the reconnection here?
Homes in Orange County are generally served by OUC and Duke Energy. Reconnection and net-metering paperwork goes to whichever one holds your account, and we file it so the system actually comes back online rather than sitting dark.
My installer went out of business. Can you still service the system?
Yes. Most of the systems we work on were installed by companies that no longer exist. We service any brand and any original installer, anywhere in Orange County. The factory warranties on the panels and inverter are usually still good and we file those claims for you.
What usually goes wrong on roofs here?
Inland counties like Orange let us focus on the things that actually fail away from salt air: rail condition, flashing at the mounts, and whether the array was ever torqued to spec. A stain on a ceiling under an array is almost always a mount that was never flashed properly.
