When solar panels are fitted it can be difficult to access damaged tiles underneath the panels. Solar panels are usually fixed by tile mounts and are screwed directly into the roof. This is the recommended fixing method compared to being nailed as it is likely that more tiles will be damaged if they need to be removed. A good and reputable roofing company who has a team of expert roof repair specialists will come out and assess your roof and be able to let you know what they need to do to carry out a roof repair service if there are solar panels fitted, and they will have the knowledge and experience to do this.
