Solar Panel Removal & Reinstall in the Orlando Metro, FL

Getting a new roof in the Orlando metro and have solar panels in the way? AllSolar Energy handles the solar panel removal and reinstallation so your roofer can work — and so your system goes back up correctly and keeps producing. This service goes by a lot of names: detach and reset, remove and reinstall, solar R&R, or simply lift and reset. Whatever your roofer calls it, we have done it on thousands of Central Florida roofs since 1999.

Solar panel removal and reinstall for Orlando-area roof replacements

When a roof in Orange, Seminole, or Osceola County reaches the end of its life — or gets torn up by a storm — the solar array has to come off before the old shingles or tile do. We temporarily remove the panels, racking, and conduit, keep everything safe, and reinstall the system after your roofer finishes. Because we are a licensed solar contractor and not a roofer moonlighting with a drill, the panels go back on the right way: correct flashing, sealed penetrations, torqued hardware, and a system that actually turns back on.

We coordinate the timing directly with your roofing company so your project doesn’t stall. Panels come off right before the tear-off and go back on once the new roof passes inspection — no weeks spent with your system sitting on the ground.

Cities we cover across the Orlando metro

Our detach and reset crews work throughout Orlando, Winter Park, Winter Garden, Apopka, Ocoee, Kissimmee, St. Cloud, Celebration, Sanford, Lake Mary, Oviedo, Winter Springs, and Altamonte Springs. For local repair and maintenance details, see our Orange County, Seminole County, and Osceola County solar service pages.

Tile and shingle — we reset both

The Orlando metro is a mix of shingle subdivisions and tile-roof neighborhoods, especially around Winter Park, Windermere, and the newer Lake Nona and Horizon West communities. Tile takes extra care: the panels and often the tile itself have to be removed, the underlayment replaced, and the array reset without cracking a single piece. We handle concrete tile, clay barrel tile, and standard shingle reroofs.

Don’t forget your solar pool heater or hot water panels

Plenty of Central Florida homes don’t have PV on the roof at all — they have solar pool-heating panels or a solar hot water collector. Those have to come off for a reroof too, and most roofers won’t touch them. AllSolar removes and reinstalls solar pool heaters and solar water heating systems for roof replacements, drains and recharges the loops, and pressure-checks for leaks before we hand it back. Most solar companies only do PV. We do all three.

How the detach and reset works with your roofer

The handoff is simple. You or your roofer call us, we schedule the removal right before the tear-off, and we come back to reinstall once the new roof is on. Roofing contractors: we’re a dependable solar detach and reset partner — see our roofer page. Homeowners can start on our main solar panel removal and reinstall page.

Every brand — including orphaned and abandoned systems

We service and reinstall every major brand — Enphase, SolarEdge, Tesla, SunPower, Panasonic, Q CELLS and more — and we specialize in orphaned systems whose original installer went out of business, including Titan, Pink Energy, and Blue Raven arrays. If your installer is gone and no one else will touch your system, we will. More than 80 companies across Florida refer this work to us.
