Vertex Renewable Surveys Ltd

Renewable energy technical surveys for installers across the UK

Vertex Renewable Surveys Ltd is a British company specialising in carrying out technical surveys for renewable energy system installers. Its work focuses on gathering field evidence — measurements, photographs, electrical checks and scope notes — that installation teams use to quote, design and prepare the installation. The company does not sell or install heat pumps, solar panels or batteries; its role is exclusively to provide survey support.

The company operates with nationwide coverage across the UK and structures its offering around four main routes: heat pump surveys (air source and ground source), solar surveys (photovoltaic), battery storage surveys and heat loss calculations. The catalogue shows guide prices starting at £150 for heat loss and £250 for air source heat pump surveys, although scope and travel are confirmed before the job is booked.

Survey services and technical support

The company covers air source (ASHP) and ground source (GSHP) heat pump surveys, with reports that include heat loss calculations, emitter sizing, cylinder checks and layout work. On the solar side, it carries out photovoltaic panel surveys with roof verification and electrical checks, inverter evidence and battery positioning. It also handles battery storage surveys, verifying location and electrical connections, and EV charger surveys where cable routes and supply context are relevant.

Technical support extends to compliance documentation, with evidence captured for MCS 020(a), MIS 3005-D heat loss support and routes registered through Elmhurst Energy for EPC evidence. The company also offers solar design support when the job requires it.

Equipment and brands covered in surveys

Surveys and calculations cover systems from a range of brands. For heat pumps, the material mentions Mitsubishi Electric, Samsung, Panasonic, LG and Bosch. On the solar side, inverters and equipment from Huawei are covered. For battery storage, systems from Fox ESS and Tesla Powerwall are covered. As for EV chargers, equipment from myenergi and Ohme is considered. The company also covers panel brands during roof and layout checks.

Working method and quality control

Vertex structures its operations around a single survey record shared by the office, design and installation teams. Before booking a visit, the postcode, scope and available capacity are checked. Access, location, electrical, roof and route restrictions are identified early to avoid delays.

The company applies AI-assisted quality control before issuing each report, with the aim of detecting missing photographs, unclear notes or weak evidence. Reports follow a PDF 2.0 format with property summary, heat loss inputs, photographs and installation notes. Delivery is through the Vertex portal, which allows bookings, progress, downloads and report access to be managed, with web availability and apps for Windows, Apple and Android.

Customer profile and access routes

The company serves three types of audience. Installation teams can outsource survey evidence without losing control of the quote, design and installation. Lead generation partners can qualify renewable opportunities before passing them to installer networks, with clear evidence and boundaries. Homeowners can access information about the process when their installer has booked the visit; in that case, the installer remains the main project contact.

For homeowners, Vertex offers a full on-site survey option and a heat loss calculation option based on plans or detailed measurements, with documented assumptions for system sizing.

Case studies and reviews

The material includes real job case studies. In one of them, a 17-room detached house with wet underfloor heating throughout was assessed, with 7 rooms flagged for wet underfloor heating and electrical and cylinder evidence easily located. In another, more complex case, a 22-room property converting from an oil boiler to an air source heat pump, with a 100 A supply and no free cable routes, was resolved with a clear report that allowed the installation team to know the job conditions in advance.

The company shows a score of 4.9 out of 5 based on 107 verified reviews on Trustpilot. Public comments highlight the professionalism and friendliness of the surveyors, as well as the clarity of the explanations during visits.

Contracting model and coverage

Vertex does not require a long-term contract. The company suggests starting with one live job to assess report quality, turnaround times and how well the process fits before scaling up the collaboration. Coverage is nationwide across the UK, with postcode and lead time checks before confirming each booking.
