Roofing

When you explain how solar works, you’ll light ’em up

We’re head-over-heels for Solar Panels, which provide an efficient and reliable way to harness the power of the sun and allow our customers to generate their own clean energy.

Our Roofers work as part of a team responsible for installing brand-new solar panels on customer roofs. You’ll be moving material, running cables or conduit, grinding tiles, and supporting our Electricians to make sure the install runs smoothly and the customer stays happy.
