Frequently asked questions
How long does solar panel installation take?
Physical installation typically takes one to three days for most home systems, though the full process from signed contract to activation — including permitting and utility interconnection — commonly takes one to three months.
Do I need a permit to install solar panels?
Yes. Most solar installations require both a building permit and a utility interconnection permit, and permitting timelines vary by city, so plan for a few weeks as part of the overall process.
What happens after my solar panels are installed?
The system needs to pass a municipal electrical inspection, and your utility must grant permission to operate before it's activated — often including a new bi-directional meter for net metering.
Will installers need to cut into my roof?
Mounting hardware is typically anchored into roof rafters with lag bolts, and any penetrations are sealed and checked for watertightness as a routine part of a professional installation.
