Service overview
What it is — and who it helps
Who needs it
Homeowners planning a new roof, a solar add-on, or a roof replacement who want roof-fit guidance before they commit.
Problems it solves
Confusing product choices, roof structural/fit questions, and incentive details that change — we help you ask the right questions first.
Why WHI for this work
Key benefits
Roof-fit first
We check slope, orientation, shading, and roof condition before recommending a solar path.
Integrated shingles & tiles
Timberline Solar®, Solstice® shingles, and SunStyle® tiles explained in plain language.
Pair with roof work
Best when coordinated with repair or replacement so you are not opening a new roof twice.
Incentive guidance
We point you to official sources to verify tax credits and local programs — no invented savings claims.
Clear next steps
Inspection or estimate paths so solar is a plan, not a sales maze.
Residential focus
Home systems sized for how you use power — with follow-up from a real WHI crew path.
Solar Savvy
Products we help homeowners explore
Choose solar shingles or solar roof tiles — we match the system to your roof and goals.
GAF Timberline Solar®
Energy shingles that install with Timberline asphalt shingles. They look like a normal roof, make power, and keep water out — one system, not panels sitting on top.
CertainTeed Solstice® Shingles
Solar shingles that replace regular shingles. They make electricity from sunlight and still shed water like a roof — a cleaner look than add-on panels.
CertainTeed SunStyle® Solar Tiles
A full solar roof made of tiles — not racks of panels. Edge-to-edge coverage with a clean architectural look and the weather protection of a real roof.
How solar energy works
Photovoltaic cells turn sunlight into DC power; an inverter converts it to AC for your home. Surplus can go back to the grid where net metering applies — ask us how credits stack with a new or existing roof. Verify current incentives with official sources.

Straight answers
Frequently asked questions
Open only the question you need — answers stay short and clear.
Sometimes. Roof age, remaining life, slope, orientation, shading, and structure all matter. If the roof is near end of life, pairing solar with replacement is often the cleaner path.
Solar shingles and BIPV tiles integrate into the roof surface. Conventional panels mount above the roof. Each has different aesthetics, output, and roof coordination needs — we help you compare fit for your home.
We help you understand which questions to ask and where to verify current federal or local incentives from official sources. WHI does not invent savings percentages or guarantee credit eligibility.
If the roof has limited remaining life, replacing first (or as part of the solar project) usually avoids removing and reinstalling solar later. An inspection clarifies the timing.
Use the form on this page with solar pre-selected, or call. Share your address, roof age if known, and whether you are also planning roof work.
Yes. A free roof inspection can document condition and help decide whether solar fits now, later, or alongside replacement.
