Solar Panel Installation for Los Angeles Roofs
Some solar installs create more problems than they solve. Improper mounting leads to leaks, voided warranties, and expensive removal when your roof needs work.
We're roofers first, which means every penetration gets flashed correctly and your roof structure stays protected. Solar should save you money, not cost you a new roof in ten years.

What Does Solar Panel Installation Cost in LA?
System size drives most of the cost, but roof type and condition matter too. A typical residential installation in Los Angeles runs $15,000-$30,000 before federal tax credits (currently 30% through 2032). Steep tile roofs or older structures needing reinforcement add to the base price. We provide detailed quotes breaking down equipment, labor, permits, and any roof prep work needed.

Solar That Protects Your Roof - Not Just Sits on It
Most solar installers think about panels first, roof second. We're roofers who install solar, which means we think about waterproofing, load distribution, and long-term roof health before a single panel goes up. That difference matters 15 years from now when you're not dealing with leaks around mounting brackets.
We handle the full scope: structural assessment, permit applications with the City of LA, mounting system installation, and coordination with your chosen solar provider (or we can recommend partners). If your roof needs work before solar makes sense, we'll tell you honestly rather than installing over problems.
