Solar Panel Cleaning
so your array earns its keep.
Dirty panels quietly cost you power. On the south Island, spring pollen, shaded moss, salt haze, and bird droppings build a film that shaves real output off your system. We clean panels the safe way — deionized water and soft brushes, no harsh chemicals, no walking on the glass — so your array goes back to producing what you paid for.
Built for owners in this situation.
- Homeowners who have watched their production drift down over the seasons.
- New-build owners in Royal Bay, Langford, and the West Shore with fresh arrays.
- Anyone with panels under trees, heavy pollen, or coastal salt haze.
- Businesses and stratas running rooftop or ground-mount solar.
Every part of the job, handled.
Deionized-water wash
Pure, spot-free water and a soft brush lift pollen, dust, and film, then dry clear — no residue or mineral spotting left to shade the cells.
No chemicals, no scratching
No detergents or abrasives that streak the glass, leave a haze, or put your panel warranty at risk. Just water and the right technique.
Off-panel cleaning
We clean from the ground or a ladder with water-fed poles wherever we can. We don’t walk on your panels, which is where hidden micro-cracks come from.
Edge moss & bird mess
The grime that hurts output most — moss creeping in at the frames and droppings shading a single cell — cleared carefully off the array.
Bundle with the roof
Panels sit right beside the moss and gutters we’re already clearing, so a solar clean folds neatly into a roof or exterior visit.
Three steps, no surprises.
Tell us the array
Panel count, roof or ground mount, and rough access. We quote a flat price, usually the same day.
Safe-access clean
Deionized water and soft brushes from poles or a stable setup. Most home arrays are done in well under a day.
Back to full output
Clean glass means the sunlight actually reaches the cells. Most owners see production climb back within a billing cycle.
By array
Priced by panel count and roof access, quoted flat before we start. Bundles with roof moss removal, gutters, and windows to save a trip charge.
Compare all plansThe standard we run by.
Warranty-safe method
Manufacturers warn against harsh chemicals and pressure washers. Deionized water and soft brushing is the approach that keeps your panels — and your warranty — intact.
We stay off the glass
Walking on panels causes hairline cracks you can’t see until output drops. We clean from poles and ladders, never from on top of your array.
The clean pays for itself
A shaded, filmed-over array can lose a real slice of its production. Getting that back is often worth more than the visit costs.

Questions about this service.
Does cleaning solar panels really make a difference?
Yes, especially here. Rain rinses the worst of it, but pollen film, shaded moss, salt haze, and bird droppings build up and shade the cells — and one shaded cell drags down the whole string. A proper clean restores output that dirt was quietly costing you.
Will you damage the panels or void the warranty?
No. We use deionized water and soft brushes — no detergents, no abrasives, and no pressure washing — which is exactly what panel manufacturers recommend. And we clean from poles and ladders rather than walking on the glass, so there is no risk of micro-cracks.
How often should panels be cleaned on the Island?
For most south-Island homes, once or twice a year does it — a spring clean after pollen season, and for panels under trees or near the coast, a second pass in autumn. We give you an honest read based on your roof and surroundings.
Can you do it at the same time as the roof or gutters?
Yes, and it is the best value. We are already up clearing moss and flushing gutters, so adding a panel clean to the same visit saves you a separate trip charge.
