Got Solar Panels on a
Roof That Needs Replacing?

Most Delaware roofers decline this job. Diamond State doesn't. If your solar array is 10+ years old and the roof underneath is leaking, we coordinate the full workflow — panel de-mount with your licensed solar contractor, full GAF Timberline HDZ replacement, then clean re-mount on new flashing.

  • One project manager. Jim handles the whole project. You don't chase two contractors.
  • Warranties stay intact. Panel + inverter warranties preserved when a DE-licensed solar contractor does the electrical.
  • 3–4 day total workflow. Day 1: de-mount. Days 2–3: new roof. Day 4: re-mount + commission.
  • $15k–$28k typical all-in. Solar portion $3k–$8k on top of the roof cost. Ballpark — your real number from a free walk-through.

Low Overhead.
One Honest Number.
No Pressure.

The big roofing companies wouldn't pull their kitchen-table sales routine on their own employees — so we don't pull it on you. One fair quote, one crew, one veteran-owned local business that's been doing this since 2013.

Jim was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the entire process. What stood out was how much he helped me navigate the insurance process to get my roof replacement covered. The crew was respectful of my property and did a great job cleaning up afterward.

Jim was professional and fair in price. I received 5 quotes and his took me from start to complete. New roof, new rafters, wrapping, plus new gutters. My roof was in bad shape and I could not be more pleased. Now I have peace of mind.

Diamond State just replaced the roof on my home and I couldn't be happier. Jim helped us file a claim with our insurance after storm damage. The crew did an awesome job and the cleanup was just as thorough as the work itself. The yard was left the same way they found it.

Born & Raised Delaware.
Veteran. Roofer. Owner.

Jim Moody started Diamond State Property Preservation in 2013 with a simple promise: keep overhead low, give one honest number, and stand behind every roof.

Thirteen years and 500+ roofs later, that promise still runs the company. Jim still answers the phone. Jim still walks every roof before a quote goes out. And Jim still trains every crew member the same way the military trained him — show up, do the work, leave the place better than you found it.
