About The Solar Roofers: Family-Owned Nashville Solar and Roofing

✦ ✦ ✦

The Solar Roofers is a family-owned Nashville solar and roofing company, working in Middle Tennessee since 2003. We did not start in solar. We started on roofs: standing seam, classic panel and metal shingles on ranch homes, farmhouses, churches and shops from Donelson to Franklin to Gallatin.

Serving Nashville · Franklin · Brentwood · Murfreesboro · Hendersonville · Mt. Juliet and all of Middle Tennessee

Our Story

From Nashville Roofs to Nashville Solar

Then we kept seeing the same thing. A customer would call about a leak, and we would climb up to find a metal roof that a solar crew had drilled through and left behind. Brackets screwed into whatever was there. Flashing skipped. These were our customers' roofs, and our neighbors were paying for somebody else's shortcuts.

So we went looking for a solar partner we could trust with our neighbors: somebody who would check the roof first, clamp to the seams instead of drilling through them, and still answer the phone after the install. We could not find one. So we became one.

Because we come from roofing, we build solar like roofers. We look at the roof before the panels: decking, flashing, layers and how many years it has left. On standing seam metal, panels go on with S-5! style seam clamps and no roof penetrations. On shingles, every mount is flashed and lagged into structure. If the roof will not outlast a 25-year array, we say so, and we replace it first. One crew. One warranty for the roof and the solar.

Today we design and install residential rooftop solar, home battery backup with Tesla Powerwall 3 and Enphase IQ batteries, ground-mounted arrays, commercial solar from 50 to 700+ kW, Level 2 EV chargers and solar maintenance across Nashville and Middle Tennessee. We are licensed and insured, BBB A+, a Tesla Powerwall Certified Installer and part of the TVA EnergyRight Preferred Partners Network. Same family, same standard: solve the cause, build it right, make it last.

The Solar Roofers is a participating contractor in the Tennessee Valley Authority’s EnergyRight® Preferred Partners Network, which connects homeowners and businesses across the TVA service territory with local contractors who meet TVA's participation requirements for licensing, insurance and training.

TVA does not endorse individual companies, but the network sets a baseline. For us it means designing solar and battery systems that interconnect correctly with NES, Middle Tennessee Electric and your local TVA power company, respect utility safety and metering rules, and are sized for self-consumption, because Tennessee has no traditional one-for-one net metering.

The Solar Roofers is a member of the Tennessee Solar Energy Industries Association (TenneSEIA), the state affiliate of the national Solar Energy Industries Association, which works to grow solar and storage across Tennessee and the TVA region.

That membership keeps us close to the Tennessee conversations that affect your system: TVA and NES program changes, interconnection standards, and best practices for solar plus storage. It is part of how we keep up with changes like the end of the federal homeowner solar credit for systems installed after December 31, 2025, and tell you the truth about them.

The Solar Roofers is built on the same foundation of trust our family has earned roofing Middle Tennessee, and holds a Better Business Bureau A+ rating. That rating reflects how we handle a job from the first phone call to the final inspection: written scopes and clear timelines, honest conversations when conditions change, and work that meets the standard we agreed to.

You can read what Middle Tennessee homeowners and business owners say about us on our reviews page. What they tend to mention is simple: crews that show up when they say they will, designs explained in plain language, clean job sites, and real follow-through months or years later. In a solar market where out-of-town sales outfits disappear after the last panel goes up, we plan to be the local company that still answers the phone.

music city logo

Nashville did not get the name Music City by accident, and we use it as a reminder that this is home, not a market on a sales map. Being Music City Specialists means building solar and battery systems for the streets we drive every day: East Nashville and Inglewood, 12 South and Sylvan Park, Green Hills and Belle Meade, Bellevue, Donelson, Hermitage, Madison and everywhere in between. We know the older homes with patchy framing, the tall infill with tight rooflines, and the commercial buildings with crowded flat roofs.

It also means designing for how Nashville weather and power really behave: long, hot, humid summers, spring storms and ice. Middle Tennessee sees roughly 5 to 7 outage-causing severe weather events a year, and Winter Storm Fern in January 2026 left about 230,000 NES customers without power at the peak. We size arrays and batteries for that, and for NES, Middle Tennessee Electric and the co-ops you actually pay each month.
