Solar PV Surveys & Assessments

Are you looking to cut your energy bills, increase your energy independence, and lower your carbon footprint? A successful solar installation starts with an accurate, data-driven assessment.

We provide comprehensive Solar PV Surveys across Suffolk, Essex, and Norfolk, helping homeowners and businesses maximize their clean energy potential. From historic coastal homes to modern commercial units, we ensure your solar investment is engineered for peak performance.

What Our Solar PV Survey Covers

• Roof Suitability

We evaluate your roof’s structural integrity, age, and material (whether it’s traditional Norfolk pantile, Essex slate, or modern standing seam metal). We also measure the available surface area to determine exactly how many panels your roof can safely accommodate.

• Shading Analysis

Even a small amount of shade from a nearby tree, chimney, or neighboring building can significantly drop a solar system's output. Using advanced digital shading analysis tools, we map out how shadows move across your roof throughout the day and across different seasons, ensuring your panels are placed for maximum sunlight exposure.

• Orientation & Pitch Assessment

While a south-facing roof at a 30 to 40 degree pitch is ideal in the UK, East Anglian properties with east- or west-facing roofs can still generate incredible returns. We assess your roof’s exact orientation and pitch to accurately calculate how much sunlight your panels will capture year-round.

• Battery Storage Assessment

Solar panels only generate electricity during the day, but most households use the bulk of their energy in the morning and evening. We analyze your current energy consumption patterns to see if adding a solar battery storage system is right for you, allowing you to store excess daytime energy for use at night or during peak tariff hours.

Financial & Energy Projections

• Accurate Generation Estimates

We don't guess your potential energy output. Using local meteorological data for the East of England, combined with your specific roof metrics, we provide realistic annual generation estimates (measured in kilowatt-hours, or kWh). You’ll see exactly what your system is expected to produce.

• Return on Investment (ROI) Calculations

Solar is an investment, and we ensure you know the numbers before you commit. We provide a detailed financial breakdown, including:

• Estimated savings on your monthly electricity bills.

• Potential earnings from exporting excess energy back to the grid (via the Smart Export Guarantee).

• Your projected payback period and long-term return on investment.
