Dust, pollen, bird droppings and traffic grime can build up on solar panels, especially on lower-pitched roofs where rain does not wash them clean. Cleaning removes that layer from the glass.
What our solar panel cleaning service covers
- Cleaning of panel glass
- Removal of bird droppings, dust and leaf debris
- Clearing debris around panel edges where safely reachable
Benefits

- Gentle methods that respect panel glass and frames

How we approach the job
We clean solar panels with soft brushes and water, without high pressure and without abrasive tools. High pressure can damage seals and frames, so we do not use it on panels. We recommend checking your panel manufacturer’s cleaning guidance, and we are happy to follow it.
Things to know before you book
- We cannot promise a specific increase in power output; results depend on how dirty the panels were and other factors.
- We do not perform electrical work on panels or inverters.
