Why a Solar Survey Matters
A professional solar survey provides an accurate assessment of your home or business, ensuring that solar panels will perform efficiently and deliver maximum return on your investment. At Install Solar, we've developed a modern solar survey approach that makes the process faster, more convenient, and highly reliable.
What Is a Solar Survey?
A solar survey is a detailed analysis of your property to evaluate its solar potential. Our solar survey covers factors such as:
- Roof orientation and angle
- Shading from nearby buildings or trees
- Roof condition and available space
- Local weather patterns and sunlight hours
- Connection to the electrical grid
By understanding these details, our solar survey team can design a solar system that suits your unique needs.
Online Solar Survey vs. Traditional Site Visits
Traditionally, solar companies sent surveyors to physically inspect properties for a solar survey. While effective, this traditional solar survey method can be time-consuming, costly, and inconvenient. Today, you have the option of an online solar survey — a remote solution that uses advanced mapping, satellite imagery, and digital tools to assess your property without a home visit.
Modern Remote Solar Survey Approach
Our innovative online solar survey approach saves time, reduces costs, and delivers results with the same (if not greater) accuracy than traditional solar survey methods.

Key Benefits of an Online Solar Survey
Accuracy You Can Trust
Using modern satellite and 3D modeling tools, our remote surveys are highly accurate. We can measure roof pitch, assess shading, and calculate solar yield without ever stepping foot on your property.
Faster Results
Why wait weeks for a site visit? With an online solar survey, you can receive results in days — sometimes even within 24 hours.
Cost Savings
By removing the need for travel, we keep overheads lower, and that means you benefit from more affordable solar packages.
Convenience
You don't need to take time off work or schedule appointments. Everything happens online, making it as easy as possible for you.
Environmentally Friendly
Skipping unnecessary site visits reduces vehicle use, lowering carbon emissions and supporting the green mission that solar energy represents.
Measuring Your Property & Solar Survey System Sizing
Using smart software during our solar survey process, our team checks your roof's size, shape, and any shading from nearby trees or buildings. This comprehensive solar survey helps them figure out how many panels can fit and how much energy they'll produce, ensuring the system is just right for your home's needs.
Roof Analysis & Measurements
At Install Solar Panels Limited, we start each solar survey by carefully measuring the roof to pinpoint the best locations. Our solar survey focuses on the most south-facing and largest areas to maximise solar radiation exposure, ensuring efficient energy capture.
Example: Total of 12 solar panels with 5.46 kWp capacity
Satellite & Mapping Analysis
Using high-resolution satellite imagery and advanced mapping tools, we create precise measurements of your roof area, calculating optimal panel placement and system sizing for maximum energy generation.
