As the cost of solar modules drop and we grow ever closer to the holy grail of “grid-parity”, the solar market is progressing, from an installation force of highly paid specialty trades - solar integrators, to the more logical and economical trade for the job - skilled roofing contractors. Further, as building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) become more mainstream, it is only natural that the same contractor that installs and waterproofs your roof would be the same contractor that installs and waterproofs your solar system. This is because BIPV solar modules actually are the roof. Gone are the days of finger pointing when it comes to warranty obligations when your roofer replaced your roof and a solar integrator installed the solar system. Now, property owners are able to select one contractor, their roofer, and enjoy one warranty and most of all peace of mind.
