Solar pricing

Solar survey cost

The short answer is straightforward. A solar survey or solar panel survey report starts from £200. The final quote then moves with roof complexity, property size, travel, and any added design scope.

That base rate is useful because it sets the right starting point before anyone wastes time on a vague “ballpark” conversation. · 3 min read

Current solar survey pricing

Solar survey

A Solar survey report starts from £200. That is the current base rate on the live pricing page.

What it is for

This is the price route for the site evidence: roof context, access, electrical evidence where needed, and the notes the next team actually uses.

What it is not

It is not a blanket design fee for every awkward roof or every extra design layer. If the job needs more than the base survey scope, the quote should say so before booking.

These rates are taken from the live pricing page and checked in the repo on 18 April 2026.

Solar panel survey cost

If someone asks for a solar panel survey cost, they are usually asking for the same base site-evidence route as a solar survey: roof, access, shading, electrical context, and battery-ready notes where needed.

Base route

Solar panel survey guide pricing starts from £200 for the normal site-evidence route.

Scope

More complex roofs, longer travel, battery context, and unusual electrical requirements can move the final quote.

What usually moves the final quote

Roof complexity

The roof itself can move the quote fast. Multiple elevations, awkward access, obstructions, and more complicated routes usually need more than the simplest base survey.

Property size and travel

Larger properties and longer travel still matter. That is why postcode and scope are confirmed before anyone commits to a survey day.

Added design scope

If the job also needs extra design work, unusual electrical detail, or a wider documentation route, the quote should move early and clearly instead of hiding the complexity until later.

What the base rate actually covers

Roof evidence

The normal route is roof overview, access context, obstructions, shading notes, and the supporting photos that help design start from the right place.

Electrical evidence

Where the job needs it, the survey can include intake, cut-out, meter, and consumer-unit evidence so the electrical reality is not guessed later.

Next step

If you want the exact Solar PV route, the best path is still to check the full pricing page, then send the job scope so the final quote matches the roof you are actually working with.
