When you need solar panels removed

We handle dozens of remove-and-refit jobs every month across Brisbane and SE Queensland. These are the most common reasons homeowners and builders call us.

Re-roofing or roof replacement

Old tiles or rusted Colorbond being swapped — panels must come off before the roofer can touch the area underneath.

Roof restoration & painting

Pressure-wash, re-bed, re-point and re-coat ridge caps. Painters and restorers cannot warrant work done around live solar arrays.

Storm or hail damage repairs

Insurance roof repairs in Brisbane often require temporary panel removal so trades can replace broken tiles, sarking or battens safely.

Leak investigation & flashings

Roof leaks under solar arrays are notoriously hard to find. We lift panels, expose the deck and let the roof plumber locate and fix the source.

House sale or pre-sale prep

Vendors restoring a roof before listing get a cleaner finish — and a higher valuation — when the array is professionally lifted and refitted.

Relocating your system

Moving house? We dismantle, transport and reinstall your existing system at your new Brisbane address, fully recertified to current standards.

Don't let your roofer "just lift them off"

In QLD, disconnecting a grid-tied solar system without a licensed electrician is illegal, voids every manufacturer warranty, and frequently destroys MC4 connectors — leaving you with a non-compliant array and an insurance claim that won't pay out.

Fixed-price Brisbane packages

All prices include electrical isolation, removal, on-site storage, refit, new flashings, recommissioning and a Form 16 Electrical Safety Certificate. No hourly rates, no surprises.

How the job runs

A typical Brisbane remove-and-refit takes 1–2 visits, scheduled around your roofer's timeline.

1

Free site assessment

Send us photos or book a free Brisbane site visit. We confirm panel count, roof type, access and quote a fixed price within 24 hours.

2

Coordinate with your roofer

We talk directly to your roof restorer, plumber or builder so removal and refit dates line up. No double-handling, no awkward delays.

3

Safe removal day

DC isolated, panels labelled by string, lifted onto padded racks. Rails and feet removed (or left in place if you're re-tiling).

4

Refit & recommission

Once your roof work is signed off, we refit panels, replace any UV-perished cabling, recommission the inverter and issue a new ESC.
