ServicesSolar Panel Installation
Solar Panel Installation in North Salt Lake
We plan, build and connect rooftop solar systems for homeowners, and we treat your roof and your home like they matter. You get a clear plan before anyone climbs a ladder, plain updates along the way and a clean site when we leave.
What a solar install with us looks like
Our panels go on your roof, on shingle or standing-seam metal. We check the roof, set sealed attachments, mount the racking, run the wiring down to your equipment wall and handle the paperwork with the city and the utility. You see the layout before we start, and you know where every panel and conduit run will go.
Solar makes sense when your power bills are steady or climbing and you have open, sunny roof space facing south, east or west. Clear winter days here put out good power, and panels on a pitched roof shed snow faster than you might think. If you want backup power too, ask about battery storage when we talk.
We offer $0 up front, so the cost of the equipment does not have to stop you from starting.
What the work includes
Roof and shade check
We look at sun angles, trees, roof pitch and where your electrical panel sits. We also check the age and condition of your shingles or metal roof, so we know it can carry panels for years.
System design you can read
You get a layout showing panel count, where each row sits on the roof and the conduit path down to your equipment. We explain the expected output in plain numbers, not sales talk.
Attachments, flashing and racking
We fasten attachments into the rafters and seal each one with flashing on shingle roofs, or use clamps that grip the seams on standing-seam metal. Low aluminum rails go on top, and the panels are clamped to them.
Conduit run to the equipment wall
Wire runs neatly under the panels and down to your equipment wall in conduit, fastened straight and tight to the house. Inverter and disconnect go where you can reach them and we can service them.
Permits, inspection and utility hookup
We pull the permit, meet the inspector and file the interconnection paperwork. You do not have to chase any of it.
Cleanup and walkthrough
We haul off packaging, pick up scraps around the house and walk you through the monitoring app before we go.
Signs solar is a good fit for your home
Summer bills keep jumping
If air conditioning pushes your bill up every July and August, solar can carry a big share of that daytime load.
You have open, sunny roof space
A roof face that stays out of shadow from mid-morning to late afternoon, with shingles or metal in good shape, is often enough room for a solid system.
Your home is a long-term stay
The savings from solar build year after year. The longer you live in your home, the more of them you keep.
You are adding big electric loads
An electric car, a hot tub or a heat pump can raise usage fast. Sizing solar for that now is easier than adding later, though Solar System Add-Ons can help if you already have panels.
Upfront cost has held you back
With $0 up front, you can get started without a large check on day one.
How the job runs, start to finish
- 1
Free virtual appointment
We meet by video, go over your bills and look at your property. You get a rough system size and a straight answer on whether solar fits.
- 2
Site visit and final design
We come out, check the roof up close, measure the panel layout and mark the conduit path, then go over it with you. Nothing moves until you are good with it.
- 3
Permit and approvals
We handle the plans and paperwork with the city and the utility. We call you as each approval comes through so you are not left guessing.
- 4
Install days
We lay mats over lawn where ladders and equipment sit, cover any walkway we cross and keep work boots outside. The roof crew works in harnesses. Most crews are on site a few days. At the end of each day we tell you what got done and what is next.

Inspection and power-on
After the inspector passes the work, we wait for the utility's written approval to connect. With that in hand, we switch on the system and sit down with you to read your first day of production.
What moves the price
No two yards or power bills are alike, so each system gets its own price. Your written estimate lists every part and every task. If something on site changes the plan, we talk with you about it before any of that work happens.
- System size
- A bigger array costs more and covers more of your usage. We match the size to your real bills instead of filling every open foot of roof.
- Roof layout and wire run
- Panels split across several roof faces, or a long conduit run from the roof to your electrical panel, add rails, wire and labor. A simpler layout keeps the hookup cost down.
- Roof type and condition
- Shingle and standing-seam metal take different attachments. A steep pitch or a tall roof adds setup time, and worn shingles may need attention before panels go on.
- Electrical panel condition
- An older panel may not have room for a solar breaker and could need an upgrade. We look at yours early, so the cost shows up on the estimate and not halfway through the job.
- Equipment choices
- The panel brand, the type of inverter and whether you add a battery all change the total. We put the options next to each other so you can compare.
Solar installation questions we hear a lot
Something not covered here? (801) 845-9016
Will you put holes in my roof?
On shingle roofs, each attachment goes into a rafter and gets sealed with flashing so water runs past it. On standing-seam metal, we clamp to the seams with no holes at all. We show you the attachment plan before we start.
How much of the roof does the array take?
That comes down to system size. Before you decide, we show you the real layout on your roof so you can see where each row of panels will sit.
Do panels work in winter here?
They do. Cold, clear days are good for output, and the pitch of your roof helps snow slide off. Shorter days mean less winter production than summer, and your estimate accounts for that.
How long does the whole thing take?
Building the system usually takes a few days. The wait for permits and utility approval is the longer part. You get a timeline up front, and we call you as each step clears.
Do I need to be home during the install?
Only on certain days. The crew has to get to your electrical panel for part of the work, and we let you know those dates in advance. The rest of the time we can work on the roof while you are out.
What happens on the free virtual appointment?
We look over your bills, pull up your property on the map and talk about system size and how to pay, including $0 up front. You are not asked to sign anything.
