Trusted Roof Solutions
Residential Roofing Services
Uprise Solar is proud to offer roofing services to residential customers, whether they are considering a solar installation or already have an array in place.

With a yearly average of more than two million homeowners needing roof replacements every year, Uprise Solar is eager to step up and help meet this need.
Experience the simplicity of high-quality roof service from the same company you trust with your solar installation and maintenance.
Commercial Roofing Services
Businesses serve an influential role in energy consumption across America, and without a well-maintained roof, your commercial structure could be costing not just your bottom line, but the environment. Roofs in disrepair lead to higher energy costs and water damage (and the associated costly repairs), and small particles of damaged roofing leach into the waterways and soil.
Uprise Solar offers commercial roofing services to improve your first impression with customers and clients, keep your building in good repair, and reduce your environmental impact — either before or alongside a solar installation.
Roofing That Performs
Director of Roofing
Meet TJ
TJ Bobbitt has lived in the DC area his entire life and met Uprise founder Chris Sewell in 2021 when they teamed up for a Solar for All project. TJ originally got into roofing (almost 30 years ago!) through a family member. Customers rave about TJ’s affordable pricing, impeccable work, and attention to detail.
Our Roofing Installation Process
Evaluation
Before a roofing project can begin, TJ and his team will evaluate the roof to determine its current state. This allows them to create an accurate timeline and budget while identifying related problems, such as water damage that will need to be addressed first.
Damage Removal
Once the project commences, roofers will remove old, damaged roofing material. This not only prepares the building for its new roof but also allows the team to determine whether the roof deck needs any repairs.
Flashing and Underlayment
After team removes old roofing material, they replace old flashing with new material and address any issues with the underlayment. This may include installing new underlayment if necessary, providing the new roof with a strong base layer.
Installation
Once the roof base is ready, the team installs roofing material on top. Depending on the original condition, the process may only require installation of the roofing materials, or can include additional adjustments (such as to the trusses), all while TJ and his team maintain a clean and secure work site.
Protect, Save, Value
Benefits
- Reduce wasted energy – Residential roofs in good repair can save approximately 6% on energy bills and reduce carbon emissions by almost 45 lbs per square foot.
- Protect against damage – Strong roofs that don’t leak protect interiors from water damage, pest infestation, and mold development.
- Increase value – Installing a new roof offers a ROI of nearly 70% while increasing curb appeal and a home’s potential sale value.
Is Your Roof Suitable for Solar?
The best roofs for a solar installation are flat roofs, pitched shingle roofs, or standing seam metal roofs. Newer roofs are a better choice; if you have an older roof (approaching 20 years), it is wise to replace it before going solar.
A roof replacement not only improves the support for your new installation, but eliminates the cost and time of having to remove solar panels for repairs or replacement later. We can help you understand how your roofing situation will impact your solar viability!
