Solar panel cleaning

Keep your solar panels clean and clear

Dirt, bird mess, pollen, moss and general grime can build up on solar panels over time. We use a soap solution first to loosen the dirt, followed by soft brush cleaning and purified water for a clean finish.

Why clean your panels?

A cleaner surface means less built-up grime

Solar panels are exposed to the elements all year round. Dirt, bird droppings, pollen and organic growth can gradually build up across the glass and frames.

Keep the glass clear

Remove everyday dirt, dust, pollen and other grime that builds up on the surface of your panels.

Tackle bird mess

Our soap treatment helps loosen stubborn bird droppings before the panels are gently agitated and rinsed.

Look after your investment

Regular cleaning helps keep your solar panels and surrounding frames looking well maintained.

What we clean

More than just the panel glass

We clean the areas where dirt and organic debris commonly build up, taking care around the panels and surrounding roof surface.

Panel glass

Soap treatment and soft brush cleaning to remove everyday dirt, pollen and grime from the panel surface.

Bird droppings

Stubborn bird mess is treated first to help loosen it before gently cleaning the surface.

Panel frames

We pay attention to the edges and frames where dirt can collect over time.

Edges & corners

Areas around the edges of the panels can collect dust, debris and organic matter, so these are included in the clean.

Low-pitch roofs

We can clean accessible solar panels on suitable low-pitch roofs using the appropriate equipment and method.

Panels near trees

Panels surrounded by trees can collect more pollen, leaves and organic debris, making regular cleaning particularly useful.

Our cleaning process

How we clean your solar panels

We use a soap-first cleaning process to help break down dirt before rinsing the panels with purified water.

1

Assess the panels and access

We look at the panels, their condition and the safest practical way to carry out the clean.

2

Apply our soap solution

We spray the panels with a suitable soap solution to help loosen dirt, bird mess, pollen and built-up grime.

3

Agitate with soft brushes

Once the dirt has been loosened, we gently work across the panels using suitable soft brushes.

4

Rinse with purified water

Finally, we rinse the panels thoroughly with purified water to leave the glass clean and help minimise spotting and streaks.

What to expect

Every panel is different

The result depends on how much dirt and organic growth has built up, but our process is designed to give the panels a thorough clean.

Light surface dirt

Dust, pollen and general grime can usually be removed with a straightforward soap treatment, brush clean and rinse.

Heavy bird mess

We treat stubborn bird droppings first so they can be loosened before the panels are gently cleaned.

Moss & organic growth

Areas affected by moss, algae or other organic debris may need more attention depending on how established the growth is.

FAQs

Solar panel cleaning questions

How often should solar panels be cleaned?

It depends on the property and surroundings. Panels underneath trees or in areas with lots of bird activity may need cleaning more regularly than panels in cleaner surroundings.

What do you use to clean solar panels?

We use a soap solution first to help loosen dirt and grime. We then clean the panels with suitable soft brushes before rinsing them with purified water.

Will the soap damage my solar panels?

We use a suitable cleaning solution and take care to clean the panels using an appropriate method and equipment.

Do you need to go onto the roof?

Not necessarily. Where practical, we use equipment that allows us to clean panels from a safer position without directly walking on the roof. Access depends on the property and panel location.

Can you clean solar panels on a conservatory?

Yes, provided the panels and access are suitable. We can assess the setup before carrying out the clean.

Do I need to be at home?

Usually, no. As long as we have suitable access to the panels and any agreed access points, you do not normally need to be present.
