Solar panel removal, reinstall & repair in Iredell County, NC

Permits, power and roofs in Iredell County
EnergyUnited is headquartered in Statesville and serves a large rural share of the county, Duke Energy covers much of the Mooresville and lake area, and Statesville runs a city electric system, so reinstall paperwork goes to whichever of the three holds the account. The county's building standards office issues permits for most of Iredell, with zoning left to the towns. Statesville's older streets hold Victorian homes and houses from the early 1900s, with tall, steep roofs over well-worn decking. Troutman and the I-77 corridor have newer subdivisions with simple, builder-grade roofs. North of Statesville, around Harmony and Union Grove, metal roofs on farmhouses need clamp-on mounts rather than lag bolts through shingles. Ice storms and spring hail are the hazards, and open farmland up north takes hard straight-line winds.
Around Statesville's historic district and Mitchell Community College, older homes carry small arrays that complicate any roof work. Near Lake Norman State Park and Troutman, hail damage on newer houses is the main reason panels come off. In the north end, near Harmony and Union Grove, owners of farmhouse systems often find the original installer has closed and no one services the equipment.

FAQ
Iredell County: questions homeowners ask
Can you take solar panels off for a new roof in Iredell 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 Iredell County?
Homes in Iredell County are generally served by Duke Energy, EnergyUnited and the City of Statesville's system, depending on the address. 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.
