What Does Solar Installation Cost?

System cost depends on your electricity usage, roof size and orientation, and equipment choices. We size systems based on your actual bills - not some inflated estimate that oversells capacity you won't use. Your quote includes roof prep, panels, inverters, racking, permits, and utility coordination. We'll also explain available tax credits and financing options so you understand both upfront and long-term costs.

"I got quotes from three solar companies before talking to LA Roofers 4U. They were the only ones who mentioned my roof needed work first. Glad I listened - no leaks, and my bills dropped 80%."

Solar Installation Questions

Do I need a new roof before installing solar panels?

Not always, but it makes sense if your roof has less than 10 years of life left. Removing panels for a future roof replacement is expensive. We evaluate your roof's condition during the initial assessment and recommend the smartest approach.

How long does installation take?

Most residential installations take 2-4 days of on-site work after permits are approved. Permit timelines vary by city - some take a week, others a month.

What warranties do I get?

Panel manufacturers typically offer 25-year production warranties. We warranty our roof penetrations and waterproofing separately. You'll get documentation for all coverage.

Will my HOA approve solar panels?

California law (Solar Rights Act) limits HOA restrictions on solar. Most associations can require placement that minimizes visibility but cannot prohibit panels outright. We can help with documentation if needed.
