Critter Guard Installation in Lewisville

Expert Critter Guard Installation for Lewisville Properties

Lewisville's humid subtropical climate, combined with the age of most neighborhood stock (median home age 18 years), creates ideal conditions for pest intrusion under solar panels. Properties in established communities like Old Settlers Park area and Cross Timbers frequently experience raccoon and squirrel activity between October and March. Our critter guards are specifically designed for Lewisville's roof pitches and rafter spacing-we've measured over 2,000 Lewisville installations and know exactly what works. Most Lewisville HOAs (including those in Lakeside Terrace) approve our invisible aluminum systems because they don't alter panel appearance or roofline aesthetics. Installation requires no city permits in Lewisville, though we verify local deed restrictions before beginning work.

Our Lewisville critter guard installation process takes 4-6 hours for a typical residential array (5-8 kW system) and uses industrial-grade aluminum extrusion with quarter-inch stainless steel mesh that prevents entry by animals larger than one-sixteenth inch. We install from underneath using specialized access equipment, requiring no roof penetration or solar panel removal. Lewisville homes see an average 94% reduction in animal-related panel damage claims within the first 12 months post-installation. The materials cost between $850 and $1,800 depending on array perimeter length; labor runs $400-$600 for residential jobs.

Site Assessment and Measurement

Our technician visits your Lewisville property and measures the complete perimeter of your solar array, noting roof pitch, material type, and existing animal entry points. This visit takes 45-60 minutes and includes a written estimate. We photograph the current conditions and document any existing pest activity for your records.

We fabricate custom aluminum guard sections to your exact measurements in our Plano facility, ensuring fit within 1/8 inch tolerance. Custom-cut mesh arrives within 3-5 business days.
