Campo’s Solar Roofing Checklist: What to Expect from Consultation to Installation

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Thinking about going solar? We get it. The process can feel overwhelming at first.

With all the product options, tax credits, and installation steps, it’s easy to lose sight of what matters. You want a system that works, looks great, and adds value to your home.

Solar roofing is one of the most effective ways to boost energy efficiency, but it does require some planning.

If you’re anything like us, you’ve probably asked yourself:

• Is my roof ready for solar?
• How long will the installation take?
• What happens after everything is installed?

That’s where we come in. At Campo Roof, we make solar simple and stress-free. Here’s exactly what you can expect from the first consultation through final installation.

1. It All Starts with a Roof and Site Assessment

We always begin with a no-pressure consultation. Here’s what is checked:

• The condition of your roof, its slope, and how much sunlight it gets
• Any trees, vents, or other obstructions that could block sunlight
• Any previous roofing work that might affect your system
  

We also start with our 25-Point Roof Inspection. This provides a comprehensive view of your roof’s health.

We inspect:

• Attic and Insulation: Ventilation, moisture, mold, and roof deck strength
• Shingles: Missing, curled, damaged, or aging shingles
• Roof Components: Flashing, underlayment, and water protection
• Roof Penetrations: Pipes, vents, chimneys, and skylights
• Ventilation and Extras: Gutters, fascia boards, trees, or debris near the roof
  

This inspection helps us spot problems before they become expensive issues later.

2. A Review of Your Energy Goals and Bills

Next, we take time to review your:

• Current electric bills
• Monthly and long-term energy goals
• Budget for solar
  

Some homeowners want to eliminate their electric bill. Others just want to lower it while keeping upfront costs manageable. We’ll help you figure out what works best for you.

3. A Clear Proposal

We’ll provide you with a detailed proposal that covers:

• System size and design
• Projected energy savings
• Any available rebates or tax credits
• Full material and labor breakdown
  

No confusing terms. No surprises. Just straightforward, honest information you can rely on.

4. Roof Repairs are Handled First

If your roof needs repairs or replacement, we will address that issue before installing solar panels. This protects your home and your investment by making sure:

• Your roof is in great shape
• Your solar system performs as efficiently as possible
• You won’t need to remove panels later for roof work
  

Since we handle both roofing and solar, everything stays on schedule without the hassle of hiring multiple contractors.

5. Permits and Utility Approvals

You don’t need to worry about the paperwork. we take care of:

• Permits
• Utility applications
• Inspections
  

We keep the project moving and make sure you stay updated at every step.

6. Installation and Walk Through of Your System

Once everything is approved, our team carefully installs your system. After installation, we:

• Show you how to monitor your system
• Walk you through warranties and maintenance
• Make sure you feel confident and comfortable with your new solar system
  

You’ll have everything you need to start enjoying clean, efficient energy.
