Pricing for roofing contractors
Detach & reset from $175 per panel — round trip
One rate covers pulling the array before your tear-off and resetting it after the new roof is on. No second invoice, no chasing us for updates, and a photo log PDF that protects you if anything on that roof is questioned later.

Volume partner program
Send us all your detach & reset work, pay less on every panel
Most roofers already lose days coordinating with whichever solar company installed the array. Route that work to one crew and the rate drops, your jobs get first pick of the calendar, and every closeout document lands in one portal.
