The process of installing solar panels
Step 2
Desktop survey
Free online survey
​To get started, we conduct a free desktop survey using advanced mapping technology. This allows us to quickly assess your roof size, orientation, and shading levels to determine if solar is a good fit for your property.
Based on this, we’ll provide you with an estimate of the system size, potential savings, and an approximate cost—giving you an early idea of what’s possible before arranging an on-site visit.
Step 3
On-site survey
A detailed property assessment
If the desktop survey looks promising and you’re keen to move forward, we’ll arrange a full on-site survey. An expert will visit your property to assess the roof condition, access requirements, and the best location for panels, inverters, and cabling.
​
This ensures we can design a system that is safe, efficient, and maximises your energy generation.
