In fact Triangle will not do it any other way. Per his words, I am not a roofer and not interested in putting holes in your roof.

The holes are actually drilled thorough the roof overhang and therefore are not drilled where they penetrate into any part of the living space. It adds to the cost because special fittings are used to make the transition of the wiring off the roof and routed down the exterior of the home into the driven ground rods. Some homeowners prefer this method as they don't like the aesthetics of the conductors wrapped around the gutters.
