What’s Included in Rooftop Solar
TPO single-ply with ballasted or mechanically attached
Most common NJ commercial roof type. Ballasted attachment with no penetrations for the simplest case. Mechanically attached with welded thermal flashings when ballast isn't suitable. GAF, Carlisle, Firestone, and JM certified.
EPDM with rubber boots and adhesive flashings
Common older commercial roofs. Mechanically attached with rubber boots and adhesive flashings. Roofer collaboration typically required to maintain manufacturer warranty.
Standing-seam metal with S-5 clamps
Best-case roof type for solar installation. S-5 clamps with no penetrations. Full warranty preservation. Adds minimal cost compared to penetrating attachments.
Built-Up Roofing (BUR) with hot-air-welded flashings
Older NJ commercial buildings. Typically has pre-existing penetrations — lower risk than new penetrations on intact membranes. Hot-air-welded flashings to the roof system.
Roof condition gating and replacement coordination
We don't install on roofs with less than 10 years of remaining warranty or with active leak history. If your roof is near end-of-life, we coordinate a re-roof + solar combined package.
Photo-documented installation with warranty file
Every penetration documented before, during, and after sealing. Documentation submitted to your roof manufacturer for warranty file. If any future roof issue arises, the documentation establishes whether it was caused by solar.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can commercial solar damage my roof or cause leaks?
Properly installed commercial solar should not damage a roof or cause leaks. We use attachment methods matched to your roof type and coordinate with your roof manufacturer to preserve warranty. We photo-document every penetration.
What commercial roof types support solar?
TPO, EPDM, BUR, standing-seam metal, trapezoidal metal, and concrete all support commercial solar. The attachment method varies by type. We don't install on roofs with less than 10 years of remaining warranty or with active leak history.
Can I install solar on a roof I'm planning to replace?
Best to combine re-roof and solar install. We coordinate timing with your roofer so the warranties are co-aligned for 20+ years. Adds upfront cost but locks in current federal ITC at 30% and current NJ SuSI credit rates.
What's the cost difference for ballasted vs penetrating attachment?
Cost is similar; the trade-off is structural. Ballasted requires roof capacity for additional weight (3–5 psf typical). Penetrating attachments need only 1–2 psf but require precise sealing. Roof type usually decides the method.
