Services

Five scopes. Two licenses. One crew on the property.

Advisor Solar holds the New Jersey home improvement contractor license and does the solar work. Advisor Exteriors is our own division for gutters and siding. Nothing here is brokered to a stranger.

01

Roof replacement

Full tear-off to the deck. We look at what is under the old shingles before we quote the new ones, because rotted sheathing found on day two is how a fixed price stops being fixed.

If solar is coming, we plan the layout now: penetrations, ventilation, and flashing placed for the array that does not exist yet.

Includes
Tear-off and disposal, deck inspection and repair, ice and water shield, synthetic underlayment, new step and counter flashing, ridge ventilation
Materials
Architectural asphalt shingle, manufacturer-certified system
Warranty
Written workmanship warranty plus manufacturer material coverage

Solar installation

We size the system from twelve months of your actual utility statements. Not a satellite guess, not a regional average, not whatever number makes the monthly payment look good on a tablet in your kitchen.

Township permitting, inspections, SuSI registration, and utility interconnection are filed by us. You sign things. We chase things.

Hardware
Q CELLS modules, Enphase microinverters, Enphase monitoring
We file
Building and electrical permits, SuSI registration, interconnection application, net metering agreement
Monitoring
Solar Insure 30-year panel, inverter, and workmanship monitoring available

03 · The one nobody wants

Detach and reset

Your roof needs replacing and there are twenty-eight panels bolted to it. Your solar company does not do roofs. Your roofer will not touch the array. This is the call we get most.

Panels come down and get labeled. Roof gets replaced. Array goes back on new flashing, gets recommissioned, and we verify production against the pre-removal baseline before we pull off the street.

Typical cost
$1,500 to $4,000
Depends on
System size, roof pitch and complexity, condition of existing racking and flashing, whether the original install was done properly
Also handled
Re-permitting where the township requires it, monitoring re-provisioning, warranty documentation

Battery and EV charging

Grid-tied solar shuts off in an outage. That is a safety requirement, not a defect. If you want the lights on during a nor easter, you need storage.

We size it against the loads you actually care about: well pump, fridge, boiler controls, one home office. Not the whole house, which is how people end up with three batteries they did not need.

Storage
Tesla Powerwall 3, Enphase IQ Battery. Retrofit to an existing array where the inverter allows it
EV
Level 2 charger circuits, panel capacity assessment, service upgrade coordination

Gutters, guards, siding

A new roof sheds more water faster. Undersized gutters turn that into a foundation problem. If yours are twenty years old, do it while the staging is already up and the dumpster is already in the driveway.

Scope
Seamless gutter, leaf guard, downspout and drainage routing, fascia and soffit repair, siding and trim
Seamless gutter run
