I would recommend most people at least have professionals install the hardware going directly into and through the roof to avoid leaks. Unless there's nobody reputable you can hire and you are sure what you're doing.

Home repair is often fairly simple and can be done easily with some basic online tutorials, but there's so many people that don't do that and think up terrible solutions off the cuff.

Metal roofs are also an option that go great with solar. There is a style of metal roof panels where you dont drill at all, you just clamp the panels on the ridges.

Roofing is its own ball of wax, but if youre handy or need a new one anyway they are a fine pair.
