Commercial Solar Roofing: Installation, Removal, and Certified Recycling
Your roof can do more than protect your property. It can generate energy savings, and when a solar system reaches the end of its life, it can be retired without risk to the building or the environment. Nations Roof integrates solar roofing systems that lower operating costs and extend roof performance, and through our partnership with We Recycle Solar, the only EPA-permitted dedicated solar panel recycler in the United States, we also deliver the only national, turnkey solution for decommissioning rooftop solar. Certified crews, zero-landfill recycling of up to 99% of components, full ESG reporting, and the replacement roof underneath. One partner. One process.

How does solar decommissioning and roof replacement work?
Six steps, one mobilization, one accountable partner. Nations Roof crews handle inspection, removal, and the roof itself; We Recycle Solar handles certified recycling, resale, and the recovery documentation. Nothing is handed off to a third vendor mid-project.
Because the roof is already exposed once the array comes off, replacement or upgrade happens inside the same project window, so you pay for access and disruption once instead of twice.
