About Solar Surveys Ltd
Independent structural engineering for commercial solar PV. Engineer-signed roof-loading surveys, UK-wide, to a 48-hour benchmark.
Solar Surveys is an independent structural engineering practice working exclusively on commercial and industrial solar PV. Before an array goes on a roof we answer one question with certainty: can the structure carry it, safely, for the life of the system?
Services: on-site structural surveys (Eurocode roof-loading appraisals); drone roof-condition surveys; Desktop Structural Roof Loading Reports; full electrical design with G99/G98 grid-connection support; and planning support. Every report is engineer-signed and delivered to a 48-hour benchmark from the completed visit.
We work across the full range, from single-roof sub-50 kWp installations through multi-megawatt commercial portfolios, and we are independent of every installer, EPC and supply chain. Standards: BS EN 1991-1-4 (wind) and BS EN 1991-1-3 (snow) with UK National Annexes, BS EN 1990, BRE Digest 489, and MIS 3002 V6.0 for in-scope work. £5M Professional Indemnity, £25M drone Public Liability.
