Roof Repair for a Solar System Installation on Calle Lago, Walnut, CA

In order to install the panels on the roof, it is necessary to drill into the roof deck to secure them on the roof.

You can prevent avoidable leaks and water damage after getting brand new solar by making sure the roof is sound and installation is done with waterproofing in mind. Leaving broken tiles and holes in the roofing underlayment is a recipe for disaster.
