Taylor Scott Solar Consulting
Primary service · Commercial rooftop solar site surveys
A complete site documentation set, including roof, shade, electrical, photo, report, and CAD deliverables—collected with the full design and construction workflow in mind, not as a limited survey-only scope. Based in the GTA and serving commercial projects across Ontario, with travel available.
A site visit is typically completed in one day, with the documentation package normally issued within three business days. Timing is standard but project-specific, and depends on site conditions, scope, access, weather, safety requirements, and travel.

01 · Deliverables
The standard survey produces four coordinated outputs: the S-100 complete survey drawing, electrical-area drawing, detailed photo log, and detailed field notes. Final inclusions are confirmed in the quotation.
Racking-layout-ready CAD and PDF with calibrated shade profiles, object offsets, labels, and annotations.
Field contextCAD and PDF documenting the electrical room, equipment areas, service equipment, ratings, and clearances.
Field contextOrganized coverage of surveyed roof areas, electrical rooms, equipment areas, and equipment ratings.
Field contextReport covering equipment ratings, observable roof conditions, access, routing, staging, and operations.
The survey drawing shown is an example from completed work with identifying information removed. Images labelled “Field context” are illustrative and non-identifying; they are not presented as completed deliverables. Actual outputs are project-specific.
02 · Standard survey scope
The goal is to collect the information needed to design and build the project—not simply to complete a fixed checklist. If the preferred solution is not immediately apparent, the survey develops and documents practical options.
Need support beyond the site visit?
Automation, full-system design support, and implementation support are available as focused consulting engagements before or after a survey.
03 · Process
Based in the GTA, supporting projects across large parts of Ontario and farther afield. Contact Taylor for a site-specific or portfolio quotation.
Send the project location(s), timing, and any available scope information. A clear scope and deliverable list are returned with the quotation.
After approval, a concise questionnaire and access plan confirm the people, documents, safety requirements, and site areas needed for an efficient visit.
CAD, report, shade, electrical, and photo deliverables are normally issued within three business days of the visit. That is the standard turnaround; the schedule for a specific project is confirmed in the quotation.
Why the survey works
Taylor's experience spans site assessment, layouts, production modelling, structural coordination, electrical design development, interconnection, CAD, installation support, and project closeout. That broader perspective changes what gets collected in the field.
The survey is built to support the project all the way through design and construction. When a connection point, equipment location, required rating, or conductor path is not obvious, the work develops viable options and captures the information needed to assess them—reducing serial site visits and downstream assumptions.
Free solar design tools
These started as practical answers to problems that kept recurring in solar design work. They are free to use, and they are a fair sample of how the consulting work approaches a technical problem.
