Professional roofing by CertainTeed 5-Star certified installers. New roofs, re-roofing, and repairs — with the option to bundle solar installation and save with one contractor.
If your roof needs work and you're considering solar, bundling both projects with Alternate Energy Hawaii saves you time, money, and hassle.
One mobilization, one permit process, one electrical plan. Bundling reduces overhead costs significantly.
No waiting for one contractor to finish before the next starts. Roof and solar installed in sequence by one team.
We design the roof with solar in mind — optimal mounting points, proper flashing, and no re-work needed later.
Any issue with roof or solar — one phone number. No finger-pointing between contractors.
CertainTeed 5-Star is the highest credential level awarded by one of North America's leading roofing manufacturers. It requires proven installation excellence, ongoing training, and customer satisfaction standards.
Hawaii roofs face conditions that mainland homes don’t. Choosing the right materials and contractor matters more here.
Hawaii’s intense year-round sun degrades roofing materials faster than temperate climates. High-quality shingles and coatings are essential for longevity.
Windward-side homes face heavy rain and sustained winds. Proper flashing, underlayment, and fastening are critical — especially for solar-ready roofs.
Coastal homes face accelerated corrosion from salt air. We use corrosion-resistant fasteners and mounting hardware rated for Hawaii’s marine environment.
Hawaii County building codes require hurricane-rated fastening systems. Our installations exceed minimum code requirements for wind uplift resistance.
Most affordable option. CertainTeed Landmark series. 30-50 year warranty depending on product line.
Ideal for solar — no roof penetrations needed. 40-60 year lifespan. Best wind resistance.
Premium option. Excellent for Hawaii’s climate. 50+ year lifespan. Requires structural assessment for weight.
Prices vary by roof size and complexity. Bundling with solar reduces combined project cost. Get a free estimate.
If your roof is older than 15 years or has existing issues, it's usually better to replace it before or during solar installation. Removing solar panels later to fix a roof is expensive and voids panel warranties. We assess your roof condition during the free site survey.
Solar panels can be mounted on most roofing materials common in Hawaii: composition shingles, standing seam metal, tile (concrete and clay), and flat/modified bitumen roofs. Each uses a different mounting system. Metal roofs are ideal — no roof penetrations needed.
Roofing costs in Hawaii vary based on roof size, material, and complexity. Typical ranges: composition shingles $8,000-$15,000, metal roofing $12,000-$25,000, tile $15,000-$30,000. We provide free detailed estimates after a site inspection.
