Marc from South Orange, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since May of 2025. The job was a removal and reinstallation: 20 panels, 4.5 kW in total, taken off and back on the roof within the month. Panels coming down and going back up is the part of a roof job nobody budgets for when they buy an array, and it is the reason to do a roof first when both are anywhere on the horizon.
Cliff and Louise from Princeton, NJ have been Green Sun Energy Services clients since September of 2025. Thirty-eight Jinko panels went up on Unirac mounting at the end of that December, 16.34 kW in total, with a first-year production estimate of 12,069 kWh. Three hundred and twenty-four feet of critter guard was fitted around the array at the same time. Squirrels and nesting birds get under an unguarded array, chew wiring and pack debris against the roof, and the guard goes on with the panels in a single visit rather than needing the panels lifted again later. Six older 230-watt
Jazmin from Colonia, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since October of 2025. The job was a removal and reinstallation: 26 panels, 5.98 kW in total, taken off in October of 2025 and back on the roof by November. That is the work nobody plans for when they buy an array – the panels have to come down before anything can be done to the deck beneath them, and every one has to go back in its place, re-flashed and re-tested. It is also the argument for doing a roof first when both are on the horizon.
Rosenblum Family, LP in Old Bridge, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since January of 2024. Thirty panels – 6.75 kW in all – came off a flat commercial roof that March, along with everything that held them there: rails, trays and the concrete ballast blocks, plus the combiner boxes, inverters, disconnects and the exterior conduit. Removing a ballasted array is as much a disposal job as an electrical one, and the roof it leaves behind should look as though nothing had ever been on it.
Justin from Bridgewater, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since May of 2022. Nineteen existing solar panels – 4.37 kW in all – came off the roof that October and went back on, reusing the original rail-free mounting system with new flashing at every point where the hardware meets the roof. That last part is the whole job: the panels and the rails were fine, and the flashing is what keeps water out, so renewing it while everything is off the roof is the one chance to replace the part that ages fastest.
Carleen and Rick from Brick, NJ have been Green Sun Energy Services clients since December of 2016. The array went up that winter and came back to us three years later for a rebuild. 12.6 kW of solar: Forty-two LG 300-watt panels in all black, on a QuickMount mounting system, commissioned in December of 2016. First-year production was modeled at 15,251 kWh, which makes this one of the larger residential arrays in the set. Removed and replaced: In November of 2019 the array was taken down and rebuilt at 10.71 kW. A remove and replace is ordinary work on a
Dewey from Millstone Township, NJ became a Green Sun Energy Services client in August of 2026. The array came off and went back on that month: 20 panels and their mounting system removed, then reinstalled once the roof beneath them had been replaced. The roofing was not ours – the household already had a roofer – and that is the arrangement this service exists for. A roofer cannot lawfully disconnect and refit a live solar array, so a household replacing a roof under panels needs a solar contractor either side of the roofing work, and the two trades have to
Thomas from Hamilton Square, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since February of 2024. The array came off in March and went back on in April: 13 panels and their mounting system removed, then reinstalled on new flashing once the roof beneath them had been dealt with. New flashing on the way back is the part that matters. The old flashing has spent years being weathered around bolts that are about to be pulled out of it, and reusing it would put a new roof under old seals – which is the one thing a reroof under
David from Berkeley Heights, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since January of 2021. The job was a removal, completed on 30 January: 25 panels taken off the roof along with the mounting system, the inverters, the disconnects, the exterior conduit and wiring and the meters, all removed and disposed of. The flashing and lag bolts were deliberately left in place for the roofer to take out, and the rooftop electrical runs were disconnected rather than cut. Leaving the bolts is the safer sequence rather than an omission: every one drawn out of a deck is a
Carol Kern has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since July of 2022. The panels came off first, the roof followed, and both were finished that September. A complete removal, not a lift and reset: Thirty-six panels came off this roof, an 8.1 kW array that works out at 225 watts a panel — roughly half what a panel of the same size produces today. The contract leaves no room for interpretation about what happened to it: a complete solar removal, everything removed and taken away. Panels, mounting system, inverters, disconnects, the exterior conduit and wiring, and the meters.
