Help Center

The best solar racking system for your home depends on your roof type, pitch, and available space. For sloped asphalt roofs, rail-based systems are commonly used and offer strong performance and long-term durability. Flat roofs may use ballasted or tilt systems to optimize sun exposure. If your roof has limited space or obstructions, a rail-less or low-profile option might be more efficient. A certified installer will evaluate your roof’s structure and orientation to recommend the ideal racking system tailored to your home’s needs.

Most homes in New York can support solar panel systems without structural issues. Before installation, our team conducts a full roof inspection to check its age, condition, and load-bearing capacity. If upgrades are needed, we’ll let you know. Solar racking systems are engineered to distribute weight evenly and minimize pressure points, ensuring your roof remains safe and secure for decades. If your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan, replacing it before or during installation is recommended for long-term reliability.
