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.
Why Justin chose Green Sun Energy Services
One company removes the solar, fixes the roof, corrects what is underneath and puts everything back right.

Solar questions from Bridgewater homeowners
Does Bridgewater decide whether the installation is code-compliant?
The municipal construction department reviews and inspects the work under the Uniform Construction Code, but the substantive electrical requirements come from the statewide Electrical Subcode rather than from local preference. Municipalities may also administer zoning requirements where those apply.
Are north-facing panels a bad idea?
They generally produce less annual energy in New Jersey than comparable south-facing panels, but they are not automatically unusable. Roof pitch, shading, the economics and the space available all matter, and a production model should show the expected output before north-facing modules go into a design.
What is a microinverter and why use one per panel?
A microinverter is a small inverter installed at or near an individual module, so each panel converts on its own channel. That gives module-level visibility and limits the effect one underperforming panel has on the others around it.
