Apologies if this isn’t the right place to ask for a 2nd opinion but I’m about to lose my mind on this and would be grateful for some input.

Had some hail damage on the property a couple years ago. Contractor came out, repaired the siding, installed hail resistant shingles, and reinstalled my enphase solar array.

7 months after the reinstall, one of my panels says the micro inverter has stopped reporting. I don’t think too much of it, figure I’ll get it fixed at some point. Another year goes by and I noticed the door frame trim is getting swollen from water damage.

The weird part is it’s only the bottom of the frame trim that has water damage and a little bit of the baseboard trim. Nothing on the ceiling or walls and no apparent leak in the attic. It’s a split level roof so both areas show no leak. Moisture level in the door frame only ever increases when it rains so it’s definitely an exterior leak and not something from plumbing.

The original company sent a roofer out who didn’t find anything. They are now going to send out their solar guys who keep pushing back on the inverter and leak not being related.

I have no other explanation as to how this leak is happening and even the roofer couldn’t find anything. The array that has the broken panel sits over the side of the house that is showing water damage. Wouldn’t it make the most sense that something went wrong with the installation, causing a leak that first broke the panel and now has been making its way inside?

Thanks in advance for any ideas on this.

I have an absurd amount of wood from a deck remodel. Is there a preferred way of disposing? I thought about posting on Facebook for people to take if they wanted. I know there’s a slash and burn in Sedalia now but kind of wanting to avoid renting a truck and hauling everything. Also thought about paying a junk disposal company. Any ideas?

Also, some of these wood pieces are like 12-16ft long which makes it even more complicated but I figured I could just cut it all down.

Thanks!
