Solar Panel Installation and Roofing Installation in Marlboro, NJ | 36 Panels Since 2017, and a New Roof Booked

Alex Belenkiy has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since September of 2017, when we installed a 36-panel array. In August of 2026 he came back for a new roof, with the same array to be taken down and reinstalled on new mounting once the shingles are on. 36 panels and 10.8 kW, in 2017: Thirty-six Hanwha Q.PEAK panels at 300 watts each came to 10.8 kW on rail-free mounting, finished on 21 October 2017, each with its own Enphase IQ6 microinverter rather than a shared central inverter.

Solar Panel Installation and Roofing Installation in East Brunswick, NJ | 30 Panels Removed and a New Roof

Christopher Bosworth has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since April of 2025, when the removal of an existing solar array was booked alongside a new roof. The roof was finished on 24 April 2025. 30 panels off, and taken away: The array was 6.75 kW across 30 panels — 225 watts apiece, which places it in an earlier generation of modules. It came off as a removal rather than a lift and reset: panels, mounting system, inverters, disconnects, the exterior conduit and wiring and the meters, all removed and taken away. The flashings and lag bolts stayed in

Desmond from Matawan, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since March of 2013.

Solar and Panel Removal-Reinstallation in South Plainfield, NJ | A Client Since 2011

Sean from South Plainfield, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2011, which makes him one of the longest standing on our list. He and Stacey signed in early November and the array was producing before Christmas, 8.46 kW on Enphase microinverters and Zep mounting with revenue-grade ANSI metering, estimated at 10,454 kWh a year. Three years later we came back to take the panels off and put them back on, the job that lets a roof be replaced without the array being written off. South Plainfield is in Middlesex County.

Solar, Generator and Roofing in Princeton Junction, NJ | Panels Off and Back On in 2023

Gerald from Princeton Junction, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since November of 2017, and the house has taken three trades since – including, in 2023, the one nobody plans for. 31 panels and 8.99 kW: Live on 6 February 2018: 31 SolarWorld 290-watt modules on Enphase IQ6 microinverters, rail-free mounting, with the monitoring gateway indoors beside the service panel in the basement rather than out in the weather. The roof it went onto was judged sufficient at the time. An 18 kW Generac on a managed whole-house switch: May of 2022. The calculation asked for a

Solar Panel Installation in Brick, NJ | 42 Panels and 12.6 kW, Later Rebuilt

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

Remove and replace: the removal is done, the panels have not gone back on yet. Awaiting reinstallation completion date.

Solar Panel Removal and Reinstallation in South Orange, NJ | 20 Panels Off and Back On

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.

Solar Panel Installation in Princeton, NJ | 38 Jinko Panels, 16.34 kW and 324 Feet of Critter Guard

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

Solar Panel Removal and Reinstallation in Colonia, NJ | 26 Panels Off and Back On

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.

Solar Panel Removal in Old Bridge, NJ | A 30-Panel Ballasted Rooftop Array Taken Down and Disposed Of

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.

Solar Removal and Reinstallation in Bridgewater, NJ | 19 Panels Taken Down and Put Back With New Flashing

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.
