Monadnock Orthodontics in Peterborough, New Hampshire required a full roof replacement on their commercial building, but the scope involved more than standard asphalt work. Existing rooftop solar panels meant the project needed careful sequencing before roofing could begin.
Because the roofing system sits beneath the solar array, the first priority was ensuring the panels were properly removed so the roof could be accessed, evaluated, and replaced without cutting corners.
The existing asphalt roof had reached the end of its service life, but the presence of solar panels added complexity. Roofing and solar systems are directly connected. Any work done on one affects the performance and longevity of the other.
To complete the replacement correctly, the roof had to be fully exposed. That required coordinating panel removal with qualified professionals so the decking, flashing, and underlayment could be inspected and addressed before installing new materials.

Once the roof was fully accessible, the Conde Roofing & Construction team completed a full commercial asphalt roof replacement. The new system was installed with consistent shingle coverage, proper ventilation, and detailed flashing work across all roof penetrations.
The project was completed efficiently and with attention to site safety, allowing work to move forward without unnecessary disruption.
The finished roof was replaced in accordance with New Hampshire building requirements and provides reliable long-term protection for the building. With a new asphalt roofing system in place, the structure is prepared to support the reinstallation of the solar panels on a sound, watertight surface.
This project underscores the importance of planning when roofing and solar systems intersect, and the value of doing the work in the right order to protect both investments long term.
