Zep Solar has a nice product for sloped roofs, particularly asphalt shingle. They have 15 or so module manufacturers making panels that are Zep compatible. The layout takes a little more time and shingles do occasionally need to be cut, but the lack of rail makes for a very smooth and very clean looking array installation.

I have used many of their products for antennas up to 5 meters and never a failure or problem. I have not used their mounts for PV solar but I expect their quality has endured.
