With expertise in both roofing and solar, we are here to offer you the best combination of services to help protect your home and save money on your electricity bill!

Why Go Solar?

Save Money

Your savings with solar depend on a few different factors, like how much energy your system produces and how much you consume. But the biggest factor is the increasing rates you would otherwise pay to your power company. According to a report done by Energy Sage, the average American homeowner will pay off their solar panel system in seven to eight years and will see an ROI of 20 percent or more.

Go Green

Our nation’s current process of generating power is not sustainable. It uses valuable resources and finite fossil fuels, which contribute to the pollution of our planet. With a solar power system installed on your home, you can create your own personal renewable power grid.

Tax Incentives

The most significant incentive to install solar panels for homes and businesses is the federal tax credit. Right now, the federal tax credit is set at 30% of the total installed cost of your new solar system until 2032, reducing the amount of taxes you owe in the year you purchase your system. This means the best time to install solar panels in Pittsburgh is now, while this tax credit is still available!

Increase Your Home Value

Not only will adding solar panels to your home save energy costs and help the environment, but it also can potentially increase a home’s value and help your home sell quicker. According to Zillow Research, homes with solar-energy systems sold for 4.1% more on average than comparable homes without solar power. For the median-valued home, that translates to an additional $9,274.

Solar Roofing FAQs

What happens to solar panels when it’s cloudy or raining?

Solar panels still work even when the light is reflected or partially blocked. If the sun is up, your system will generate power.

Can you install solar roofs on any type of residence?

If you’re unsure whether or not your property is fit for solar roofing, talk to your MHI Roofing representative. While most buildings can handle a solar roof, installation is most cost-effective depending on the shape of your roof and where your panels are placed. We’re happy to address any concerns you may have and help you find the best solution so that you can enjoy the benefits of solar!

Why should I work with a roofer to install solar panels?

Solar panel installations in Pittsburgh require expertise. Only a tried-and-true roofer can help you figure out the right solar panels and placement for your roof, then install them safely and efficiently. This is not a DIY project, nor one you should outsource to an amateur.

We recognize that deciding to install a solar roof is a big decision. It can also be difficult to understand the process, installation, and technology. Our MHI Roofing team is here to answer all of your questions and help guide you through the entire process. Give us a call today to go over your solar options.
