Solar panel removal, reinstall & repair in Cabarrus County, NC
Cabarrus County mixes fast-growing HOA suburbs with Kannapolis mill houses and eastern farmland. The western half has filled with subdivisions since the 1990s, while the east around Mount Pleasant still has farmhouses with metal roofs, and the two halves rarely need the same kind of solar work.

Permits, power and roofs in Cabarrus County
Permits are the easy part. Cabarrus County's Construction Standards division handles building permits for every jurisdiction in the county, from Kannapolis and Harrisburg to Midland and the unincorporated east. Electricity takes more sorting out: Duke Energy serves much of the county, the City of Concord has its own system, and Union Power Cooperative and EnergyUnited cover rural and edge areas, so finding the account holder comes before any reinstall. In Kannapolis, the former Cannon Mills village has rows of small frame houses with plain gables, many re-roofed several times over decking that is a century old. Harrisburg and the western edge near the Mecklenburg line are mostly two-story houses from the 1990s on. Spring hail and thunderstorm wind are the main hazards, and big oaks over the old mill streets add shade and falling limbs.
HOAs in Harrisburg, Midland and the subdivisions off Rocky River Road want arrays put back to the approved plan, and roofers want them off before the insurance deadline. Kannapolis mill-house roofs leave no spare plane for a new layout. Around Mount Pleasant, larger rural lots bring metal roofs, outbuildings and trees that have grown since the array went up.

FAQ
Cabarrus County: questions homeowners ask
Can you take solar panels off for a new roof in Cabarrus County?
Often, yes, when it is planned. Art of Solar is a Florida solar company, so North Carolina work is booked ahead and grouped with other jobs in Charlotte Region, and it only goes ahead with the North Carolina license the work needs. Send the address, the panel count and the roofer's tear-off date for a straight answer.
Who is allowed to work on solar panels in North Carolina?
In North Carolina, a solar job of any size has to be contracted and permitted by a contractor licensed by the State Board of Examiners of Electrical Contractors: a limited, intermediate or unlimited electrical license, or the special restricted single-family dwelling license for work on a detached house. A general contractor may work under that electrician, and there is no separate solar license.
Who reconnects the system in Cabarrus County?
Homes in Cabarrus County are generally served by Duke Energy, the City of Concord's system, Union Power Cooperative and EnergyUnited, by area. 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.
My installer went out of business. Can the system still be fixed?
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.
