Roof geometry, obstructions, structure and the electrical service — captured on site in a single visit, by someone who is actually there. Discuss outsourced survey capacity for your US solar installation team.
For solar company decision-makers: review your project locations, survey scope and design handoff in 15 minutes.
A remote measurement gets you a roof outline. It does not get you rafter spacing, a bus bar rating, or the vent stack sitting exactly where row three was going.
Your crew arrives to install and instead spends the morning measuring what the survey should already have told them.
One unmeasured obstruction turns a finished layout back into a draft — after the customer has already seen it.
A 100A panel where the design assumed 200A. Found on install day, it costs you the day.
One visit. Both halves of the job.
Use the fit-check call to scope a real project or discuss recurring survey capacity. Bring your current capture checklist so we can compare the required field record with the work your design team needs.
Share the states and cities where you build, property types and expected monthly volume. Confirm technician availability, access requirements and scheduling for the actual sites before committing.
Review the roof, attic and electrical information your team requires. Agree how inaccessible areas, missing photos and questions from design will be handled.
Discuss the deliverables, point of contact and any plan-set or engineering support you need. Confirm scope, pricing and delivery timing for your engagement.
Evaluating providers? Use our solar survey vendor comparison questions and site survey checklist to prepare.
A usable survey connects the roof layout, structure and electrical record. Define the capture brief before the visit so the office can distinguish measured data from an item that still needs review.
Roof planes, dimensions, pitch and obstructions support the layout. Tie photos to the same roof section as the measurements so a designer can follow the evidence.
Attic access makes the framing record possible. Record the visible member dimensions, spacing and spans; flag inaccessible areas instead of filling gaps with assumptions.
Main breaker and bus ratings are separate readings. Record the service equipment, proposed equipment locations and actual route back to the array. See our electrical survey scope.
Reference: DOE solar planning guidance.
The residential scope covers roof measurements, attic and structure, electrical equipment and shading context. Agree on additional storage or project-specific requirements before the visit; an inaccessible area should be flagged for follow-up.
Imagery supports early roof screening and layout. It cannot document attic framing or service panel labels inside the property. Those records need on-site capture or another verified source.
Confirm safe access to the property, attic and electrical equipment, and share any access constraints ahead of time. Homeowners should leave equipment covers and electrical work to qualified personnel.
The captured record goes to design and engineering. The team checks missing or unclear items before preparing the layout and permit package. Survey completion does not itself grant permit or utility approval.
Start with the property address and the evidence your installer, designer or engineer needs. We provide in-person roof, attic and electrical capture for residential solar, with commercial and utility-scale scopes handled separately.
Find your city or community to review local survey-planning context. A city listing is a reference, not a branch office or a confirmed appointment. Ask us to confirm scope, technician availability and timing for the actual site.
