Roof Types GoKonnect Solar Can Mount Solar Panels On
At GoKonnect Solar, we provide expert solar panel installations designed to work seamlessly with a variety of roof types. Using industry-trusted mounting systems, we ensure every installation is secure, efficient, and built to last—no matter the roof style. Here are some of the most common roof types we work with:
1. Asphalt Shingle Roofs
One of the most popular roofing materials across Ireland, asphalt shingles are affordable, durable, and commonly found on homes. Their layered design offers good water resistance and a clean aesthetic.
GoKonnect Solar can easily install solar panels on shingle roofs using discreet mounting systems that protect the waterproof layer underneath. This ensures both the performance of your solar system and the long-term integrity of your roof.
2. Standing Seam Metal Roofs
Standing seam metal roofs feature long vertical panels with raised seams, providing both strength and a sleek, modern look. Known for their durability and energy efficiency, these roofs pair perfectly with solar.
Our solar mounting systems clamp directly onto the seams—meaning no roof penetrations—for a clean, secure installation. It’s a great option for preserving the lifespan and weather resistance of your metal roof.
3. Corrugated Metal Roofs
Common on farm buildings, sheds, and commercial properties, corrugated metal roofs have a distinctive wavy pattern. They’re designed for strength and efficient water runoff, making them practical and durable.
With GoKonnect Solar, specialized mounts are used to attach your solar panels securely without compromising the roof’s waterproofing. It’s a simple and cost-effective way to add solar power to these structures.
4. Clay and Concrete Tile Roofs
Tile roofs are known for their classic look and long lifespan. Whether made from clay or concrete, they’re common in traditional and Mediterranean-style homes.
Installing solar on tile roofs requires extra care, and GoKonnect Solar uses tile-specific mounting systems designed to fit securely while avoiding damage. We ensure a clean finish that maintains the aesthetic of your home while generating clean energy.
5. Flat Roofs
Flat roofs are often found on modern homes, extensions, and commercial buildings. They offer unique flexibility when it comes to solar panel positioning, allowing installers to optimize the angle for maximum sun exposure.
Our flat roof systems use weighted ballasts or low-profile mounts, minimizing the need for drilling and protecting the roof membrane. This method ensures a durable and watertight solar setup with optimal performance.
