San Diego County Roofing & Solar handles the roofing side of solar projects reliably. We found 124 mentions of solid workmanship and 116 comments praising their project coordination, including juggling solar panel removals with roof replacements. One homeowner's crew worked around skylight installations mid-project and still finished on schedule, another came home to find tarps over the pool and zero debris after each day. The company coordinates with a solar partner to deactivate panels, pull them off, replace the roof, and reinstall everything under one warranty, which simplifies a typically fragmented process. What we didn't find: any mention of competitive solar pricing or proactive system design advice. You're hiring a roofing crew that handles solar logistics, not a solar installer that happens to do roofs. If your roof needs replacement before panels go up, this setup works. If you're comparing solar quotes directly, expect to pay a premium for the convenience of single-point accountability, and be prepared to manage some coordination yourself between the roofer and their subcontracted solar partner.
If you need a new roof before adding solar and want one company to handle the panel shuffle, San Diego County Roofing & Solar delivers dependable coordination. If you're comparing purely on solar expertise or cost, you'll find sharper quotes and more hands-on system guidance elsewhere.
Kevin L. discovered a leak in his 25-year-old roof and decided it was time for a full replacement. He called owner Troy and then had estimator Dylon spend about 45 minutes on a thorough inspection — a necessary step because the roof carried solar panels and gas lines that complicated the job. SDCR’s partnership with a solar company meant the crew handled deactivating, removing, reinstalling and reactivating the panels, and SDCR backed that work with a warranty. He chose SDCR and watched the team protect his property with tarps over the pool and artificial turf, replace rotted wood at a reasonable price, and clean up debris at the end of each day. Supervisor Edgar stayed available for questions, Dylon constantly checked progress and offered options, and Juan walked him through the finished roof, pointing out that the garage’s flat section received two layers of torch-down rather than the single layer most companies install. One hiccup occurred when a section of newly installed turf was damaged during the process; Troy instructed him to replace it and arranged reimbursement. Kevin replaced the turf for $2,200 and received a company check for the full amount within a week — the cleare
Roman discovered a roof leak after Tesla had solar panels installed by third-party contractors and turned to San Diego County Roofing and Solar to fix it. He watched the team plan and execute a full re-roof with solar removal and re-installation, all finished within seven days. The company balanced competitive pricing and flexible scheduling with clear expertise in both roofing and solar, and handled the job professionally and thoughtfully — even fashioning a cover to protect an active mourning dove nest tucked in a hanging flower basket during the work. Neighbors and friends had already recommended them, and his experience matched that high regard. He cautions against letting typical solar installers who don’t do their own roofing touch your roof, calling solar assembly almost like a plug‑and‑play set while stressing that leak‑free roofing still demands skilled tradespeople. He appreciated that a roofing company pivoted into solar for his project and thanked Troy and Edgar by name. He’s now waiting for the first rainy season to confirm the repairs hold up.
Robert hired San Diego County Roofing and Solar to reroof his home and came away with mixed feelings. The crew proved competent and finished the job on schedule, and the new roof looks solid — the workmanship is the standout positive. But the sticker shock stuck with him: SDCR’s initial quote ran higher than other roofing and solar bids he collected, and once the contract was signed the total climbed further than he expected. An added wood replacement charge of $4,200 felt like a big surprise he had to accept on trust. He also asked the company to add a small solar system, and that part of the job exposed the weakest link: SDCR doesn’t perform its own solar work and relies on a partner. That arrangement left him managing communication and coordination between the roof crew and the solar contractor, which created extra hassle and confusion. Bottom line: he ended up with a well-executed roof completed on time, but buyers should budget for significant extras and be prepared to coordinate solar work themselves when hiring this company.

Vinny hired SD County Roofing to replace the roof on his house a few years back, and because that first job held up so well he had no hesitation calling them again to replace the roof on his rental property. They delivered again: Troy led the project, proved deeply knowledgeable about roofing, stayed professional throughout, and kept him updated while answering every question. What mattered most to him was the team's insistence on doing the job correctly — the crew’s workmanship and the customer service both impressed him. The detail that stuck with him was Troy’s steady communication and hands-on oversight, the reason he chose them twice.
Greg moved into a new house that needed a full roof replacement — two layers of asphalt shingles and several patch jobs had left it in rough shape. Because he had worked with San Diego County Roofing and Solar back in 2017, he reached out to Troy for a quote; the estimate was reasonable, so he scheduled the job. Edgar and his crew arrived on time and immediately got to work. They kept things low-key — no loud music or standing around — and each member seemed to know exactly what to do; the teamwork felt unusually smooth. Skylights were being installed at the same time, and Edgar’s team devised practical workarounds to keep the roof schedule moving; the project finished on time, and Greg thinks they probably could have wrapped up even sooner without the extra coordination. This was his second experience with Troy and the team, and what stuck with him most was the crew’s quiet, efficient coordination that minimized disruption while keeping the job on schedule.
Chuck W. had his roof replaced by San Diego County Roofing & Solar five years ago, and he remains completely satisfied with the result. From the start Troy stood out during the bidding process—he pointed out common shortcuts other companies take and even armed Chuck with smart questions to put to competing vendors. Troy’s bid landed in the middle of the pack; Chuck chose quality over the cheapest option and, after more work around the house, grew more convinced that the lowest bids often turn into mistakes. Communication stayed strong throughout the project and the crew left a solid, well-executed job. When he recently added solar to the roof, he reached out to Troy about how the new equipment would affect the roof warranty; Troy answered immediately, remembered the details of the original job, and gave a fair, clear explanation of what to expect. What stuck most with him was Troy’s ongoing care—both the upfront guidance during bidding and the willingness to follow up years later about warranty implications.
Joanne S. discovered water seeping into her kitchen after heavy November rains — her roof was 22 years old. Five years earlier Troy from San Diego County Roofing had inspected the roof and warned a replacement would likely be needed in another 5–6 years; she remembered that honesty and reached back out when the leak began. A friend had even pointed out that a contractor who hadn’t pushed a sale years before was worth calling again. Troy delivered the most competitive bid out of three, and his partner Edgar showed up every day to manage the work. Edgar kept his time commitments, worked around the rain, assigned a full crew, and wrapped the job in under a week. He walked Joanne through paperwork, produced proof of insurance, answered questions, and handled the logistics so she could focus on kitchen mitigation and restoration inside the house. The lasting detail: the same team that gave an upfront, honest assessment years earlier returned with a fair price and tightly coordinated, fast execution when the roof finally failed.
Kelly hired the company for a home installation that required demolition and a full install, and the crew hit every deadline in the agreed-upon timeline. She walked away impressed by the craftsmanship and the team's willingness to go above and beyond — neighbors even told her the crew was attentive to their requests while demolition and installation were underway. The inclusion of a GAF warranty delivered the long-term value she wanted. Her clearest takeaway: a smooth, considerate job that earned her enough confidence to schedule their solar panel installation in 2026.
Guy C. hired the crew for a full tile-roof replacement and came away impressed with the results. He found the team fast and professional throughout the project, and — while the job ran expensive — the quality matched the price. The installers left the roof tiles noticeably straighter and more uniform than they were before the work began, and the PV panels were removed and reinstalled cleanly with no issues. In short, he paid a premium and received tidy craftsmanship plus a seamless solar removal/replacement.
Kevin Landry developed a leak in a roof that was about 25 years old and moved forward with a full replacement through San Diego County Roofing. He contacted owner Troy, who walked him through the process, and an estimator named Dylon spent roughly 45 minutes doing a detailed inspection that flagged wood rot and the complication of solar panels and gas lines on the roof. Because SDCR partners with a solar company, the team handled deactivating the system, removing and reinstalling panels, reactivating the array, and backed that work with a warranty — a handy arrangement given the extra coordination required. He chose SDCR and watched the job progress with regular updates: tarps protected the pool and artificial turf, debris was cleared each evening, and the crew repaired the rotted wood at a reasonable price. Edgar, the site supervisor, stayed available for questions while Dylon regularly checked progress and presented options when issues came up. At the end, Juan walked him across the finished roof and pointed out specifics he might not have known on his own, including that the flat garage roof received two layers of torch-down material instead of the single layer many companies施
