Solar PV

Our Solar PV survey involves a detailed assessment of your property to evaluate various factors that impact the effectiveness and viability of installing solar panels. By conducting this thorough evaluation, we can provide you with a customised solution that maximises your energy savings.

What is a Solar PV Survey?

A Solar PV survey is an in-depth assessment of your property to evaluate its potential for solar photovoltaic (PV) installation. This survey examines various factors that influence the efficiency and viability of solar panels on your home.

During the survey, we assess your property’s roof orientation, angle, and structural integrity. We also consider any shading from trees or buildings that might impact the performance of the solar panels. By understanding these aspects, we can provide you with a tailored solution for your home that maximises your energy savings.
