Start with the symptom
What is your system actually doing?
Nobody rings up knowing their optimizer failed. They ring up because the app went to zero or the ceiling has a stain on it. Find the one that sounds like your roof and it takes you to the detail.
The app says zero
Production flatlined and the monitoring screen is blank or red. Nine times out of ten it is the inverter, a tripped breaker or a communications card, and all three are fixable.
What we do about itHalf the array is down
Some panels produce and some do not. That is a string fault, a failed optimizer or a connector that corroded open in the Florida damp. We trace it panel by panel.
What we do about itThe inverter is dead
No lights, an error code, or the fan has stopped. String, micro or hybrid, we repair or replace it and file the manufacturer warranty claim if the unit is still inside its term.
What we do about itA stain on the ceiling
Water under the array is a solar problem, not a roofing one. It is nearly always a mount that missed the rafter or was sealed with caulk instead of proper flashing.
What we do about itA storm went through
Lifted panels, bent rails, cracked glass or a whole section that moved. We document the damage so it can go to your insurer, then put the array back properly.
What we do about itRails and clamps rusting
Salt air eats the racking long before it touches a panel. Corroded rails, clamps and grounding lugs get replaced rather than reused, especially on the coast.
What we do about itThe installer vanished
The company that sold the system is gone, the loan payment is not, and nobody will take the call. We take over systems other companies abandoned, any brand.
What we do about itIt was never switched on
The panels went up, the paperwork stalled, and the system has never produced a watt. We finish the install, pass the inspection and get the utility to connect it.
What we do about itHow a repair goes
Diagnosis first, price second, tools third
The reason solar repair has a bad name in Florida is that a lot of outfits quote a number before they know what is wrong, then find the real fault halfway through and come back for more money. We do it the other way round.

Tell us the symptom
A photo of the inverter and the monitoring screen is usually enough to narrow it down before we drive out.
- 2
We test the system
Inverter, strings, optimizers, breakers, connectors and the attachments. On the roof and at the panel.
- 3
Written diagnosis and price
A list of what is wrong, what it costs, and what can safely wait. Warranty claims filed where they apply.

Repair and verify
Parts fitted, system restarted, monitoring checked, and production confirmed in writing before we leave.
Straight answer
Is it worth repairing at all?
Sometimes it is not, and you will hear that from us. A tired array with a dead inverter and corroded racking can cost more to nurse along than it will ever save. But that is the rare call. The common one is a system that is basically sound with one failed part on it, sitting idle while the loan payment goes out every month.
- Any brand
- Panels, string inverters, microinverters, optimizers and batteries.
- Warranty claims filed
- Manufacturer cover usually survives the installer closing down.
- Licensed and insured
- Certificate on request, permits pulled, inspections met.
While the panels are off anyway
Repairing during a re-roof is the cheap way to do it
If the roof is being replaced, the array is coming down regardless. Every fault on it is far easier and cheaper to fix on the ground than it will ever be at the top of a ladder. That is the moment to sort the rails, the connectors and the flashing in one go.
FAQ
Solar panel repair: common questions
Do you repair solar panels you did not install?
Almost everything we repair was installed by somebody else, including companies that no longer exist. Any brand of panel, any inverter, any racking. We are not going to tell you a system is unsupported because our name is not on it.
What does solar panel repair cost in Florida?
A diagnostic visit is a fixed fee and it comes with a written list of what is actually wrong. Small work like a tripped breaker, a bad connector or a failed optimizer usually lands in the low hundreds. An inverter replacement is the big one, and how big depends on whether the unit is still inside its manufacturer warranty. You get the number in writing before anyone starts.
How fast can somebody get out here?
For most of the route from Orlando to Miami we are talking days, not weeks. Tell us the town and what the system is doing and you get a real date on the first call rather than a place on a list.
Is my warranty worth anything if the installer closed?
Usually yes. The workmanship warranty from the installer normally dies with the company, but the manufacturer warranties on the panels, the inverter and the optimizers are separate and often still live. We file those claims for you, which is frequently the difference between a few hundred dollars and a few thousand.
Can a broken panel be repaired, or does it have to be replaced?
A panel with cracked glass or a burnt junction box gets replaced, because there is no safe repair for that. Most of what people call a broken panel is not the panel at all. It is the wiring, the optimizer or the connector behind it, and that is repairable. We test before we condemn anything.
Does a solar repair need a permit?
A like-for-like repair usually does not. Replacing an inverter, changing the racking or moving panels usually does, and in Broward and Miami-Dade the attachment rules are stricter again. We tell you which side of that line your job sits on, and we pull the permit when it is needed.
My roof needs replacing too. What then?
Then it is one job, not two. The array comes off for the roofer, the faults get fixed while the panels are on the ground where they are easy to work on, and everything goes back on new flashed mounts. It is the cheapest time to repair anything.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Moving or reconnecting a solar array in Florida is solar and electrical work, and it sits outside a roofing or handyman licence. Everything we do is done by a licensed and insured crew, permitted where the county requires it, and inspected.
