The brief
Keep the solar, replace the roof underneath.
The client had a working solar array on a tired roof. Rather than pay to have the panels removed by one trade and refitted by another, Albion handled the full job: electrical isolation, panel removal, roof strip-and-rebuild, new lead work, and panel reinstallation on the new tiles.
Because the panels were coming off anyway, we took the chance to upgrade the lead work and add a small new flat roof to the front elevation, all under one scaffold visit.
Covered by the CORC 10-year Insurance-Backed Guarantee.
