Mounting Solar Panels on Shingle Roofs—Done Right
Mounting solar panels on a shingle roof requires precision, expertise, and the right system design to ensure long-term performance and roof integrity. At Solarise Solar, we specialize in professional solar panel installation in Colorado Springs for asphalt shingle roofs. Our certified installers use roof-safe mounting techniques and modern black-on-black panels to maximize energy efficiency without compromising aesthetics or structural quality. Backed by a 30-year warranty and tailored financing, we make it simple to switch to solar—without the risk, guesswork, or hidden costs.Why Ignoring the Switch to Solar Costs More Than You Think
Staying on traditional grid power in Colorado means higher utility bills, greater exposure to rate hikes, and missed opportunities for savings. Delaying solar installation:
- Increases your long-term energy costs
- Misses out on federal and state solar incentives
- Reduces your home’s energy efficiency rating and market value
Whether you're concerned about rising bills or looking to make an eco-conscious upgrade, putting solar off will cost more than taking action now.

What Customers Are Saying
We just had a massive storm roll through with baseball sized hail. I got ahold of solarise & they're already working to get someone out to check the possible damage to the solar panels. Monique also is emailing me a list of roofers and roof restoration specialists they work with. Absolutely wonderful to work with!

We have had solar for about a year now and the difference is amazing! We no longer have hundreds of dollars in utility bills. The office staff is always willing to check on the productivity and ensure they are always working properly! We recommend Solarize for your solar needs!

We oversized our system a little to prepare for future heat pumps and electric cars, so have had no electric bill other than the connection fee for the utility this year :)Our storage has also been great and kept us running through several power outages. It is also starting to really help our solar credit bank now that we have peak rate hours.Solarise was easy to work with through the design phase and made the installation a piece of cake. We would definitely recommend them to anyone looking into a new system!

Solarise was great! I build small off-grid PV systems, but ran out of time to do our own. Their install was very professional, and the installation techs were able to answer all my questions as well. The only hiccup was that the roof install got pushed back due to wind, but I can’t blame them for that!The system has been operating flawlessly for about a year now, and I’m looking forward to TOU billing since my specific system will actually be generating more credits during peak hours.I will definitely be using them again for additional storage and PV as our energy needs increase.

My family has been happy with our solar panels. Being a military family it has helped us greatly with cutting costs in our home we purchased. We went from paying a utility bill of almost $300-$400 monthly depending on outside temperatures to just paying $10 monthly just for the connection fee. Solaris Solar made my family feel welcomed and walked us through the process step by step. They have been great. I highly suggest anyone interest in adding solar to their home to do so.

We have had the Solarise panels for over a year now and things have been great. No issues with the panels and the company checks in every now and then to make sure everything is okay. They are currently reviewing our elec statements, since we are still getting elec bills, to see about adding more panels, at no additional cost. I will say one thing, though, when we were sold the panels, we were told we would get an $11,000 CO state tax credit, which once received the tax refund, we were to apply all to the loan to keep the loan payment low. FYI, there IS an $11,000 credit however, the state of CO only applied $8,000, minus what we owed the state, so there was not 11k to put down towards the loan. The state breaks it up, 8k first year and 3k the following tax year. So, provided CO is still offering the credit, keep that in mind. Other than that, the panels work really well and we are satisfied. Also, they warranty the roof, as well as the panels, so that is nice.

I shopped around and spoke with a few different solar companies before deciding on Solarise because they offered the best deal as well as being the least pushy and offered the most easy to understand explanations.I have not been disappointed and the panels have saved me a ton of money on electricity, especially during the summer even without being overly cautious on ac use.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Our mounting systems are specifically designed for asphalt shingles. They are either non-penetrating or use sealed penetrations that prevent leaks and preserve your roof's integrity.
Most residential installations take 1–3 days after permits and designs are approved. We'll give you a detailed timeline during your consultation.
We can coordinate roof replacement with your solar project or install after the new roof is complete. If roof work is needed in the future, panels can be temporarily removed and reinstalled.
Most customers see a significant reduction, but the total offset depends on your system size and energy usage. Some bills may remain for grid access fees or additional energy use.
Homeowners may qualify for the Federal Solar Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers 30% of system costs, plus possible local utility rebates. We’ll guide you through all options.
Yes. We evaluate the roof condition, electrical panel, and structure to ensure your home is ready. If upgrades are needed, we’ll include them in our proposal.
The average home needs 300–600 square feet of unshaded roof space, ideally facing south or west. We’ll evaluate this during your free solar assessment.
Solar panels are designed to withstand hail, snow, and high winds. Our systems are built to meet or exceed local building codes and tested for durability.
