  • Roof repair 3 floor town house, with solar panels

    We have a tile shifted/moved/broken on the front and back of our 3 story town house, which has also got solar panels on. Is it possible to repair the roof without removing the solar panels completely. Or is the a company who are both solar installers and roof repairers. Or can it be repaired from the inside?
