Spend less time surveying. More time installing.
Keep projects moving when your team is busy. Our independent solar PV, battery storage and EV charging surveys give installers and designers recorded site information to support remote quotations and early design work — potentially saving your team an extra initial site visit.
How we make your job easier.
When survey appointments compete with installations, quotations and design work, an independent survey partner can help you progress enquiries without stretching your own team.
Save time on initial site visits
We attend the property and record the relevant site information, reducing the need for your team to make a separate initial information-gathering visit.
Prepare quotations remotely
Use photographs, measurements, equipment details and observations from our reports to assess requirements and develop a quotation from your office, subject to any further checks you need.
Keep installers on installations
When your schedule is full, use our survey capacity to keep new enquiries moving without pulling installation staff away from existing jobs.
Give designers a stronger starting point
Provide your design team with structured property information and an assessment of constraints, so they can identify the next technical checks and progress early planning.
One property? Book it straight away.
Installers, designers and other professionals can book and pay online for a single residential survey. If you need several properties surveyed, contact us to coordinate appointments.
One site visit. Two detailed reports.
Our service is designed to give homeowners, renewable energy designers and installers the site information and clear assessment findings they need to make informed decisions, prepare quotations and plan the next stage of a project — without automatically needing to repeat the initial survey.
Site Survey Report
A practical record of the property and the information gathered during the survey, including relevant photographs, measurements, existing equipment, proposed locations and observed site conditions.
For installers and designers: A structured starting point for reviewing installation requirements and preparing a quotation or design proposal remotely.
Independent Pre-Installation Assessment Report
An accessible assessment that brings the survey findings together, explains relevant considerations, highlights potential constraints and identifies points requiring further confirmation.
For customers, installers and designers: Clearer context for understanding the property, discussing options and deciding the next steps.
Designed to save your team time
Instead of sending a member of your team to collect the same initial site information, use our survey findings to assess the opportunity, develop a quotation and progress early design work from your office. This can reduce travel, duplication and delays, especially when your own survey team is busy.
Important: The reports support remote review and quotation, but do not replace any specialist inspection, electrical testing, structural assessment, detailed design or final verification that the installer or designer determines is necessary.
Book a SurveySurvey capacity for your business.
Use us when your team is busy, you need additional pre-installation survey capacity, or a customer wants an independent assessment. Our findings support — but do not replace — detailed design and installation work.

Electricians & EV installers
Book pre-installation EV charging surveys when you need support, or refer customers directly.
Independent advice when customers want it.
We provide independent surveying services only. We do not supply or install solar panels, batteries or EV chargers.
Supports informed decisions
Customers can explore their property's suitability and likely considerations before committing to a particular installation route.
Clear written findings
Our two reports provide recorded site information and an independent assessment to help designers and installers quote and plan work remotely.
No referral administration
Share a link and let the customer arrange their survey. You can also book through our website on their behalf.
One service for several renewable technologies.
Our residential pre-installation surveys are available for solar PV, battery storage and EV charging, including combined assessments.
Where our role ends
Our surveys are independent pre-installation assessments, not final electrical designs, structural certifications, installation quotations or guarantees of feasibility. A qualified designer or installer must complete any necessary detailed checks, calculations, approvals and final design decisions.
This makes the service particularly useful for customers who want to understand the next questions to ask before choosing an installer.

Good to know.
Can a professional book a survey directly?
Yes. Professionals can book and pay for a single property directly through our website, or refer a customer to book themselves. Please provide accurate property, contact and access details, with the customer's permission where applicable. For multiple properties, contact us to coordinate bookings.
Do you sell or install renewable energy equipment?
No. First-Rate Surveys provides independent surveys and assessment reports only. We do not supply equipment or undertake installation work.
Does your assessment confirm an installation can definitely proceed?
No. The report helps identify potential suitability, constraints and next steps. Final feasibility, design, compliance checks and installation decisions remain with the appropriate qualified specialists.
Is there a referral fee or special trade price?
No. Residential surveys use our published prices. There is no referral commission, trade account or minimum number of referrals required.
What areas do you cover?
Our residential renewable energy surveys are available in our local service area. Check our Areas We Cover page for current coverage information.
