Solar PV survey packs

Solar PV Survey Packs for UK Installers

Roof context, measurements, and evidence captured in a consistent structure.

We document the site in a way that makes design and installation decisions easier to justify—especially when questions come up later.

Pricing is POA and depends on scope. We confirm scope, timeline, and pricing before you book—nothing happens until you approve.

Roof documentation for design clarity

Solar surveys are easiest to act on when the roof context is captured clearly. We document what matters in photos and notes so layout decisions can be justified later.

The pack is designed to support a smooth handoff from survey → design → install.

Roof

Roof context

  • Roof overview photos + scaling references
  • Pitch/orientation context where relevant
  • Obstructions and shading notes/photos
Electrical

Electrical evidence (where required)

  • Meter / cut-out / consumer unit photos
  • Main fuse rating + spare ways captured
  • Constraints highlighted early
Install

Install planning notes

  • Inverter location context
  • Routing notes where relevant
  • Structured notes to reduce back-and-forth

Frequently asked questions

A solar PV survey includes roof assessment, measurements, shading analysis, panel layout design, structural suitability checks, electrical supply information, cable routing notes, and comprehensive site photos. The survey pack is structured for installer use and supports system design.

Solar PV survey costs vary depending on scope (survey only, survey with design, survey with electrical assessment). We confirm scope, timeline, and pricing before booking—nothing happens until you approve. Contact us for a quote.

The site visit typically takes 1-2 hours depending on property size and roof complexity. Survey packs are available in the portal immediately upon completion of the visit.

Yes, a solar PV survey is essential before installing solar panels. The survey provides roof assessment, shading analysis, panel layout design, structural suitability checks, and electrical information needed for system design and installation planning.

Solar panels can be installed on most roof types including pitched roofs (tiled, slate), flat roofs, and metal roofs. The survey assesses structural suitability, roof pitch, orientation, and shading to determine the best installation approach.

We provide solar PV surveys across the UK, including London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Liverpool, Newcastle, Sheffield, Bristol, Edinburgh, and all major UK cities. Based in Doncaster, we cover England, Scotland, and Wales.
