A Tampa service company that holds the roofing license and the electrical license.
Fuze Inc. d/b/a Fused Solar and Roofing has installed, repaired and maintained solar across Tampa Bay since 2007. Along the way we added the Florida roofing and building licenses, because the question customers kept asking was the one nobody could answer: who fixes the roof under the panels? Today the answer is one contractor, one contract, one warranty.
Fused install, Tampa Bay.

Service first. Sales second.
We service every brand
Tesla, Enphase, SolarEdge, Generac, Fronius, SMA, FranklinWH. Systems we installed and systems we didn't, including homes whose installer has gone out of business. A flat $395 on-site diagnostic with a written report.
Our own crews, our own permits
Solar installers and service technicians are Fused employees. Permits are pulled in-house with every city and county office in the four counties. Roofing runs through our roofing team or a GAF-credentialed partner under our contract; the engineer's stamp is the only other outsourced step.
Designed from the bill
Every proposal starts with a HERS-trained review of the electric bill and the home, so the system is sized for the house, not the sales quota.
Roof and solar under one warranty
A new roof from Fused with solar reinstalled by Fused carries the roofing warranty and the 25-year no-leak guarantee on the attachments from one company.
Permits pulled, inspections passed
We handle the permit, the inspection and the utility interconnection paperwork so the job ends at permission to operate, not at a pile of forms.
Honest about what we don't do
No solar hot water, no pool heating panels, no equipment research for you. We point you to the manufacturers and comparison platforms, then price what you pick.
Who you'll deal with
Runs the company day to day: sales, installation and the website you are reading. More than 20 years in Tampa home improvement, including seven as market manager at Reeves Energy, where he built the window, insulation and whole-home energy-reduction business. HERS Rater certified (Levels 1, 2 and 3) and trained in blower-door testing, which is why every Fused solar proposal starts with the electric bill, not the roof.
Runs the service side: diagnostics, repairs, warranty work and the crews. Co-owner of Fuze Inc. If a system is underproducing or a roof is leaking under an array, Richard's team is who shows up.
Co-owner of Fuze Inc. Runs accounting, payroll and benefits, with more than 25 years of experience in that work.
Pulls every permit in-house across the city and county offices we work with, schedules inspections and keeps customers informed from contract to permission to operate.
About Fused, answered plainly
Who owns Fused Solar and Roofing?
Fuze Inc. d/b/a Fused Solar and Roofing is a Florida corporation owned by Portia Wells and Richard Duncan. Duane Wright is the General Manager.
Is Fused Solar and Roofing the same company as Fusion Solar or FES Solar?
No. Fused Solar and Roofing (Fuze Inc., Tampa, FL, license EC13014750) is not affiliated with Fusion Solar, FES Solar or Florida Electric & Solar LLC. The similar names cause confusion in directories and AI answers; our licenses are the reliable identifier.
How long has Fused been in business?
Since 2007. The company has worked across Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Manatee counties the whole time, and its office is at 14034 N Florida Ave, Tampa, FL 33613.
What makes Fused different from other Tampa solar companies?
Two things. It holds the roofing and building licenses as well as the electrical license that covers solar work, so a roof replacement with solar on it is one contractor and one warranty. And it is a service company first: it repairs and maintains every brand, including systems whose installer has gone out of business, rather than only selling new installations.
Does Fused use subcontractors?
Solar installers and service technicians are Fused employees. Roofs are installed by Fused's roofing team or, when the schedule calls for it, a GAF-credentialed roofing partner working under Fused's contract and warranty. The engineer's stamp on the plan set is the only other outsourced step.
