Comp & Frame Process
Comp & Frame Process for Solar Installation
During the solar installation process, the existing concrete tiles are removed and replaced with composite materials, ensuring a precise fit for your home’s solar system. The composite materials are compact, allowing the solar rack mounts to sit lower on the roof, making them appear seamlessly integrated into the roof’s design. The remaining concrete tiles are carefully cut to ensure a clean and secure fit around the panels.
This process allows for a sleek, aesthetic finish while maintaining the functionality of your roof. Contact us to learn more about our efficient and stylish solar solutions!
