What we engineer
Hamilton includes both dense older neighbourhoods and rural areas around Flamborough and Glanbrook. That means a mix of rooftop systems on older homes and ground-mount arrays on rural properties, which need foundation and racking design.
Residential rooftop reviews
Structural letters confirming the roof can carry the array, sealed and ready for permit.
Commercial & industrial rooftops
Roof framing analysis and sealed drawings for large rooftop arrays.
Ground-mount systems
Foundation and racking design for ground-mount installations.
Roof reinforcement
Reinforcement details when existing framing needs upgrading for the array.
Racking & attachments
Review of racking layouts, attachment spacing and connections.
Snow & wind loads
Loads checked against provincial building code requirements for each site.

Common questions
Do you engineer ground-mount solar in rural Hamilton?
Yes. We design foundations and racking for ground-mount systems on rural and farm properties.
Can solar go on an older lower-city home?
Often, yes. We check the existing rafters and design reinforcement if the roof needs it.
