The Challenges of Installing Solar on a Slate Tile Roof

Over the years the Urban Current teams have encountered various challenges when it comes to installing solar on different types of roofs. Among these, working with slate tile roofs stands out as a unique and demanding task.



Slate tile roofs possess a distinct aesthetic appeal and durability, but their installation requires a specialized approach due to their fragile nature. The challenges of installing solar panels on slate tile roofs stem from their brittleness and the necessity to preserve the integrity of the roof while securing the solar array effectively.


At Urban Currents, we recognize the intricacies of working with slate tile roofs. Our extensive experience has taught us the delicate balance required to install solar panels on such surfaces without compromising the roof's structural integrity.
