The Problem

A bad survey is a redesign waiting to happen

Half the change orders, truck rolls and AHJ corrections in solar trace back to one thing, a site that wasn’t captured right the first time. A panel that’s actually 100A, a rafter spacing nobody measured, a gas main too close to the meter. Get the survey wrong and everything downstream inherits it.

 

01

Cost you can't see

A missed bus rating or breaker amperage turns into a redesign after the crew is already on site.

02

Truck rolls eat margin

Send someone back for the one measurement that got skipped, and the job’s profit goes with them.

 

03

Bad data, bad design

Your designer can only draw what the survey gives them. Garbage in, redline out.

 
 

04

Every roof is different

Shingle, tile, metal, ground, each needs specific checks most surveys skip.

 
 

We capture it right the first time.

Vishtik surveyors document every angle, measurement and panel detail your design and permit set will need, so nothing comes back to bite you on install day.

What We Capture

Everything your designer needs, documented

A Vishtik survey isn’t a few phone photos. It’s a structured capture of every element your plan set, structural review and electrical design depend on.

Exterior & Address

Street view, a close-up of the address number, and the exterior from every angle.

Roof Inspection

Age, tilt, overhang and all-angle photos, with the tilt measurement documented.

Attic & Structural

Access point mapped, plus rafter height, depth and spacing measurements.

Service Panels

Main and sub locations, manufacturer and max bus rating, main-breaker amperage, and photos of the panel wall, open panel and breakers.

Utility Meter

Meter location, utility company, a map note and photos from every angle.

Gas Main

Height and width, distance to the main service panel, and the location mapped.

Battery & EV Readiness

Placement suggestions, wall-dimension markups and appliance info, chargers, water heaters and the like.

Existing Solar

System specs, AC disconnect details and photos of modules and inverters when a system is already in place.

One organized package, not a folder of loose photos

Every photo, measurement and map note your team needs, structured and ready for design.

What A Survey Looks Like

Real capture, not a clipboard checklist

A look at the photos, measurements and drone imagery that come back in a Vishtik survey package.

Built for Every Roof

Each roof type captured, the way it needs to be

A shingle roof and a standing-seam metal roof don’t need the same checks. Our surveyors capture the details specific to each.

 

Shingle

Asphalt Shingle

Number of shingle layers and a pliability test, plus the standard roof capture.

Tile

Tile

Front and back of a tile, weight measurement, and photos of any broken tiles.

Metal

Standing-Seam Metal

Standing-seam height, width and spacing, for accurate attachment design.

Ground

Ground & Flat

Terrain, layout area and obstructions for ground-mount and flat-roof systems.

Drone survey included where it helps

Orbital imagery at 50–75 ft AGL and a 35° tilt, a close-up of each roof face, and a top-down image for markup alongside on-roof measurements.

Two Levels of Survey

Take the essentials, or capture everything

Pick the depth the project needs a lean retrofit capture, or a full survey that leaves the designer wanting for nothing.

 

Standard

Essentials for a retrofit

Deluxe

Everything the design will need

Beyond the Photos

Assessments that make the data usable

Survey Documentation

Topography, structural integrity and electrical infrastructure, organized for design and installation.

Shade Analysis

Shading obstacles identified so panel placement and production are based on reality, not guesswork.

QC’d Before Delivery

Every item checked against the survey standard before the package reaches your team.

Why Installers Choose Vishtik

FAQ

Site surveys, answered

Exterior and address, roof inspection, attic and structural, service panels, utility meter and gas main, plus drone imagery and battery or existing-system detail when they apply.

Yes, residential, commercial, EV charging and utility-scale, at the same level of detail.

Yes. Orbital imagery at 50–75 ft AGL and a 35° tilt, close-ups of each roof face, and a top-down image for markup, alongside on-roof measurements.

Shingle, tile, metal and ground or flat each with the specific checks that roof needs.

Fast, on a schedule confirmed up front, so your design and permitting stay on track.

Yes — it’s structured to flow straight into your plan set, so nothing measured gets lost between survey and design.
