Absolutely.

Whenever you add something to a home or building, it’s always best to consult the city on the regulatory codes that govern such actions.

Many people have been fined for adding structures and/or altering certain aspects of a home or building without approval – solar photovoltaic panels are no exception.

Most companies try their best to ensure the installation process is fast and as safe as possible.
