Built Better: Roofing Roots to Solar Success

Live from RE+, Teddy sits down with Christopher Robinson of American Roofing Solar and Apollo Solar to talk about turning a 4th-gen roofing company into a legit solar player in Louisville, KY.

They get into doing solar the right way—bringing in real expertise, building a solid foundation, and treating roofing + solar as complementary, not interchangeable. The result? Safer installs and better long-term service.

You’ll also hear what it actually takes to run a solar operation day-to-day—hiring, training, permitting, design, inspections, and customer comms. Not just rooftop talk—everything behind the scenes.

Plus: real install challenges, shading, performance, and why microinverters + module-level monitoring matter in the field.

Christopher also shares highlights from his award-winning projects—including a full system reset, a community library install, and a custom solar carport pushing net zero.
