The Homeowner's Challenge
The existing tile roof had been poorly installed and was already showing signs of failure, including active leaks. While the tiles themselves appeared serviceable in areas, the underlying system had deteriorated, making repairs ineffective and preventing a safe or compliant solar installation.
The homeowner needed a long-term solution that addressed both waterproofing and energy goals.
Our Solution
- Complete removal of the existing tile roofing system and old underlayment.
- Repaired all damaged wood decking to restore a solid structural base.
- Installed new GAF Tiger Paw™ synthetic underlayment to create a continuous waterproofing layer.
- Installed GAF Energy Timberline Solar™ ES shingles as a fully integrated solar roof system.
- Completed final site cleanup and project walkthrough upon completion.

Why This Matters for Fallbrook
In Fallbrook, roofs must perform under heat, wind exposure, and wildfire risk while meeting increasingly strict insurance requirements. A fully integrated solar roof replacement provides:
- One unified roofing and solar system
- Reduced penetration risk compared to traditional panels
- Updated documentation for insurance and long-term ownership
- Clean, low-profile solar designed as part of the roof itself
The difference is night and day. The crew was respectful, clean, and fast.
