Solar Repair & Maintenance on Oahu & Maui

Our Solar Check-Up is a comprehensive on-site evaluation of your entire solar installation including panels, inverters, optimizers, microinverters, wiring, racking, roof condition, and monitoring. Our NABCEP-certified technicians use thermal imaging where needed, compare actual production against expected output for your system size and orientation, and deliver a detailed photo report with written repair recommendations. The visit typically takes 1 to 2 hours on site.

Yes. Repairing orphaned solar systems is one of our specialties. We have hands-on experience with systems originally installed by Sunetric, Haleakala Solar, Sunnova, SunPower, SunEdison, Mana Solar, Solarwave, ATTYX Solar, Solar Help Hawaii LLC, 808 Solar, Sedna Aire Hawaii, PV Techs, Hawaii Solar Energy, Mosaic, and Swell Energy. We diagnose, repair, and (where the panel or inverter brand is still active) handle manufacturer warranty and RMA paperwork on your behalf.

Common warning signs include a sudden jump in your HECO or MECO bill, red or yellow alerts in your monitoring app, persistent inverter error codes, panels that are visibly soiled or shaded, water staining or rust around roof penetrations, and microinverter or optimizer dropouts on the panel-level monitoring view. If you see any of these, book a Solar Check-Up so we can pinpoint the cause before production losses compound.

Small repairs like a single microinverter replacement, a critter guard install, or monitoring restoration typically range from a few hundred to about $1,500 including parts and labor. Full string-inverter replacement runs $2,500 to $5,500 depending on brand and size. Battery service and major rewiring are quoted per system. Every repair starts with a fixed-fee diagnostic so you see the number before any work begins.

Yes. We replace string inverters from Enphase, SolarEdge, SMA, SunPower, Fronius, Sol-Ark, Schneider, Outback, and ABB/Fimer, plus microinverters and optimizers from Enphase and SolarEdge. We stock the most common Hawaii units and can usually source Hawaii-rated replacements within a few business days. Where the unit is still under manufacturer warranty, we file the RMA for you.

Yes. We service every brand and every installer in Hawaii, including current REC, Tesla, Panasonic, Qcells, Silfab, Canadian Solar, LG Solar, and Hanwha Q CELLS panels, plus legacy and discontinued models. Whether your system is 6 months old or 14 years old, our technicians can diagnose, repair, and bring it back to spec.

We safely remove and reinstall panels, coordinate the schedule directly with your roofer, protect the array and wiring during storage, and re-flash every penetration on reinstall so the roof stays watertight. Most R&R jobs take 1 to 2 days on each end depending on system size.

Most non-emergency diagnostics are scheduled within 5 to 10 business days. Active outages, ground faults, and any safety-related issue are triaged to the front of the queue, typically within 1 to 3 business days. SolarServe Premium members receive our fastest response window of 12 hours.

Yes. When the panel, inverter, optimizer, microinverter, or battery brand is still in business, we file the warranty claim, ship the failed unit back, receive the replacement, and install it. You stay in the loop without having to navigate manufacturer call centers yourself.

In most cases, yes. After we resolve the root cause (failed inverter, dead microinverter, wiring fault, heavy soiling, shading, or critter damage) production typically returns to within a few percent of the system’s original design output. Hawaii homeowners commonly recover $150 to $600 or more in annual savings after a single targeted repair.
