Cleaned Solar Panels Enhances Their Efficiency and Lifespan

About Our Solar Panel Cleaning Services

Your solar panels are designed to capture sunlight and convert it into energy. However, dirt, dust, bird droppings, pollen, and other debris can accumulate on their surface, reducing their efficiency. The rain and seasonal weather changes can deposit grime on panels. Regular cleaning ensures they function optimally. Clean panels absorb more sunlight, maximising your energy generation and return on investment.

What We Offer

We provide both regular scheduled cleanings and convenient one-off solar panel cleaning services for all types of properties.

The Benefits of Having Your Solar Panels Cleaned

  • Enhanced Efficiency: Clean panels can improve energy output by up to 20%, ensuring you get the most from your investment

  • Prolonged Lifespan: Regular maintenance prevents dirt buildup that can cause long-term damage, such as corrosion or wear.

  • Cost Savings: Increased efficiency translates to lower energy bills and quicker payback on your solar system.

  • Aesthetic Appeal: Clean panels enhance the look of your property, whether residential or commercial.

  • Warranty Protection: Many manufacturers recommend regular cleaning to keep warranties valid.

The Problems That Occur When Your Solar Panels Are Not Cleaned

Neglecting regular cleaning can lead to:

  • Reduced Efficiency: Dirt and debris block sunlight, leading to a significant drop in energy production.

  • Long-Term Damage: Persistent grime can cause hotspots, scratching, or even structural issues on the panels.

  • Higher Bills: Less efficiency means more reliance on external electricity sources, increasing your energy costs.

  • Invalidated Warranty: Many manufacturers require evidence of proper maintenance to honour warranties.

  • Poor Return On Investment: Your investment in solar energy won’t pay off as quickly if panels are not kept in good condition.

Keep your solar panels in top shape with professional cleaning tailored to the weather conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers To Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I clean my windows?

For residential properties, window cleaning frequency is typically every four weeks; however, the choice ultimately depends on your preference. You can opt for a four-week cycle for consistently clean windows or an eight-week cycle if less frequent cleaning meets your needs.

For commercial properties, the cleaning schedule varies based on factors such as how quickly the windows accumulate dirt and the impression you want to leave on your clients and customers.

Many businesses, such as retail outlets, prefer weekly cleaning to maintain a pristine appearance, while others, like office buildings, may choose monthly or quarterly schedules. For example, hotels often require more frequent cleaning compared to standard office spaces due to higher visibility and customer expectations.

Tailoring the schedule to your property type ensures your windows remain clean and reflect the right image for your home or business.

When is the best time to clean my gutters?

The best time to clean your gutters is typically in early spring and late autumn. Here’s why:

  1. Late Autumn (November-December): During autumn, leaves, twigs, and debris often accumulate in gutters. Cleaning at the end of this season ensures they are clear before the winter months, reducing the risk of blockages and ice buildup, which can cause significant damage.

  2. Early Spring (March-April): After winter, gutters may become clogged with dirt, moss, and other debris brought by storms or melting snow. A spring clean prepares your gutters for increased rainfall in the summer and ensures proper drainage.

If your property is surrounded by trees or located in an area prone to high winds, you may need more frequent cleaning throughout the year to prevent clogs.

How does solar panel cleaning benefit me?

Regular solar panel cleaning enhances efficiency by removing dirt, debris, and grime that block sunlight, ensuring your panels operate at maximum capacity. This leads to improved energy output, lower electricity bills, and a longer lifespan for your investment.

How do I make payment?

Payments can be made via bank transfer upon completion of the work or through a standing order for added convenience.

How often should I clean my solar panels?

It's recommended to clean your solar panels once or twice a year to ensure they operate at peak efficiency. The frequency can vary based on your location and the level of dirt or debris in the area. For instance, panels near trees, farmland, or construction sites might require more frequent cleaning to remove bird droppings, pollen, or dust. Regular maintenance ensures maximum energy output and prolongs the lifespan of your solar panels.

Do I have to be home for my windows to be cleaned?

No, it’s not necessary for you to be home during your window cleaning appointment. Our team will complete the cleaning and notify you once the work is done. We’ll either send you a text message or leave a leaflet in your letterbox to confirm that your windows have been cleaned.
