Professional roof inspection for solar installation

Before Installing Solar Panels, Know Your Roof Can Handle Them

Professional inspection service for roofs and coverings prior to photovoltaic installation. We evaluate structural capacity, measure orientation and inclination with precision instruments, assess waterproofing condition, detect shadows throughout the day, and calculate usable surface area.

Structural Load Assessment

Evaluation of roof structural capacity to support additional weight from solar panel systems, mounting hardware, and accumulated snow or debris loads.

Analysis includes beam span calculations, material condition assessment, and load distribution evaluation across the entire roof structure.

Orientation & Inclination Measurement

Precise measurement of roof orientation and slope angle using calibrated instruments to determine optimal panel placement and expected energy production.

Documentation includes azimuth readings, tilt angles, and recommendations for panel positioning to maximize solar exposure throughout the year.

Waterproofing Condition

Inspection of current waterproofing systems, membrane integrity, flashing condition, and identification of potential leak points before panel installation.

Assessment prevents future water infiltration issues that could be complicated by solar panel mounting systems already in place.

Shadow Pattern Analysis

Detection and mapping of shadows cast by chimneys, antennas, neighboring structures, and vegetation across different times of day and seasons.

Shadow analysis identifies areas with reduced solar exposure, allowing installers to avoid low-production zones during system design.

Usable Surface Calculation

Accurate measurement of available roof area, accounting for obstructions such as skylights, vents, HVAC equipment, and required maintenance access zones.

Detailed surface mapping provides installers with precise dimensions for system sizing and panel array layout planning.

Comprehensive Technical Report

Detailed documentation of all findings, measurements, photographs, and recommendations that any solar installer can use for accurate project dimensioning.

Report format designed for clarity and completeness, eliminating surprises during installation and ensuring informed decision-making.

Why Choose Independent Roof Inspection

We provide unbiased technical assessment without selling equipment or installation services. Our focus is accurate documentation of roof conditions and solar potential.

01

No Sales Pressure

We do not install panels or sell equipment. Our inspection service provides objective technical data without any commercial interest in the installation outcome.

02

Installer-Agnostic Reports

Our documentation can be used by any qualified solar installer. The technical data we provide is standardized and universally applicable for project planning.

03

Precision Instrumentation

All measurements taken with calibrated professional equipment including inclinometers, solar pathfinders, and moisture detection instruments for accurate data collection.

04

Prevent Installation Issues

Identifying structural limitations, waterproofing problems, or shading issues before installation prevents costly modifications or system underperformance after panels are mounted.

How the Inspection Works

Systematic evaluation methodology designed to capture all relevant technical data for solar panel installation planning.

1

Initial Contact & Scheduling

Contact us with your property address and basic roof information. We schedule an on-site inspection at a mutually convenient time, typically requiring 2-3 hours for complete assessment.

2

On-Site Roof Assessment

Our technician conducts thorough roof inspection including structural evaluation, precise measurement of orientation and slope, waterproofing condition check, and shadow pattern observation throughout inspection period.

3

Measurement & Documentation

Using calibrated instruments, we record all relevant data: roof dimensions, surface area calculations, obstacle positions, structural observations, and photographic documentation of current conditions.

4

Report Preparation

Technical report compiled with all measurements, findings, photographs, and observations. Report includes diagrams, usable surface calculations, and any identified concerns or limitations.

5

Report Delivery

Complete technical documentation delivered in digital format. This report can be provided to any solar installation company for accurate system design and quotation without requiring additional site visits.
