Miami-Dade County · Florida
Pinecrest's ranch houses were built on lots of about an acre, and many are being replaced by much larger homes. Those big lots carry big trees, and the village has planted thousands more along its streets, so shade decides where an array makes sense.

The crew works Orlando down to Miami every week, so Pinecrest gets normal scheduling, no travel charge, and a reinstall lined up with your roofer's tear-off date.
On the ground in Pinecrest
Pinecrest incorporated in 1996, four years after Hurricane Andrew destroyed many homes in the area, so much of the housing is either a rebuilt ranch or a newer estate. The newer houses are large, often two-story, with complex hip roofs in concrete tile or standing-seam metal, and their arrays tend to be split across several faces. Metal roofs take clamp-on mounts that grip the seams without drilling, a real advantage for owners who want no holes at all. The village has planted more than ten thousand street trees since 1997 and holds Tree City USA status, and private lots are thick with oaks and tropical hardwoods. Even seam clamps need Miami-Dade wind approval here, and the village's building and planning department inspects them like any other mount. FPL provides the power.
On the large lots off Killian Drive and Red Road, owners rebuilding or expanding a house often want the existing array removed early and reinstalled once the new roof is finished. Near Pinecrest Gardens, original ranches with tile roofs carry modest systems under heavy canopy, and production has dropped as the trees filled in. Two-story estates with arrays on several faces need a full plan for where every panel returns.

FAQ
Yes, every week. Pinecrest is on our Orlando to Miami route, so it is normal scheduling with no travel charge, and the reinstall is lined up with your roofer's tear-off date.
Only a licensed solar or electrical contractor. Pinecrest is inside Florida's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every attachment needs documented product approval and the reinstall is inspected before the system comes back on.
Homes in Pinecrest are generally served by FPL. When an array goes back on after a roof job the utility usually needs to know, and the building department normally inspects the reinstall before the system is switched back on.
Usually. The installer's own workmanship warranty is gone, but the panels, inverter and optimizers carry manufacturer warranties that normally still apply, and a dead system is often one failed part rather than a worn-out array.
