Roof/Solar panel cleaning specialists:

It might seem strange that a solar company undertakes this type of work, but we specialise in solar panel cleaning and pest removal and in many cases we have to clean or repair roofs before we can install solar panels. So instead of employing the services of subcontractors we have our own qualified roofing gangs who will undertake this work, thus ensuring continuity of quality in our work, therefore it makes perfect sense to offer this service to non solar panel owners as well as solar panel owners, 2/5 year workmanship warranty included with every roof clean. We only use the best products to clean roofs and our fully trained qualified roofers are insured.

What is that yellow stuff on your roof?

Its called lichen, it grows when fungi and algae reproduce with each other. Roofs are especially susceptible to lichen growth and significant damage can be caused by lichen. It holds moisture in place against the tiles which speeds up normal wear and tear. If this trapped moisture freezes it can lead to frost damage making roof tiles porous. It should be treated and removed in the early stages of infestation.
If left untreated it will damage your roof leading to water ingress into the roof timbers and you may need to replace your roof a lot sooner than expected.

Solar Panel Cleaning:

Lichen/algae/moss/dirt will slow solar PV generation down significantly, costing you money on your feed in tariffs or SEG and leaving you with less electricity to store in your battery’s - You could loose 30% or more of your generation if your panels are not professionally cleaned.

Bird removal/protection:

Our quality solar PV bird mesh is made from quality galvanised steel with a black plastic coating, it is designed to last 20 years and aesthetically it looks far superior than the much cheaper products used by most of our competitors, such as plasterboard trim, chicken wire or plastic garden mesh which not only lets the pigeons back in but doesn’t last very long and in a short time it will rust making your roof look ugly.

Our quality built to last pigeon mesh comes with a 10 year warranty against it coming off.

We are very often called in to put right work that window cleaners and untrained or unqualified unscrupulous companies have undertaken. We are an experienced solar company with access to the correct materials and our engineers are qualified roofers and solar PV specialists offering quality workmanship you can trust - do it right the first time and save money immediately.

Would you ask a window cleaner to rewire your home?

Window cleaners use long reach carbon poles which can be electrified whilst the panels are turned on. Not only that it’s impossible to clean solar panels correctly using soap and water or from ground level!

Solar panels should be turned off and then once the work is completed switched back on again but more importantly your solar inverter must be checked to ensure it has no faults after being reset, this should only be done by someone who is qualified to do so.

We will check your system over once we have completed the work, making sure your system is (1) Safe and (2) Working without any faults. If for any reason there are any problems with your system we will be able to reset your inverter and clear any faults that may occur whilst we are at your property, this is all included in your quote.

We are fully insured.

We use only the best materials and our specialist chemical solar PV cleaner will lift the dirt and grime that has built up across your panels, leaving your panels like new generating up to 30% + more electricity (in some cases)

We can also clean your panels and the area around your panels with moss/lichen/algae killer, however if the moss build up is significant or the pigeons have become too much we can safely remove the panels if necessary and clean underneath them and then recommission your system once your roof has been thoroughly hygienically cleaned.

All chemicals used are biodegradable and are harmless to humans, pets and plants.

Pigeons carry fleas – tics – pathogens – bird mite - bacteria soon builds up - your pets can catch salmonella from their droppings, you could be at risk of pigeon fanciers lung if the problem isn't treated correctly and quickly.

If left unchecked pigeons will damage cables causing arc faults and in extreme cases the pigeons nests could make a tinderbox environment right underneath your solar panels and in turn this can potentially cause a fire on your roof.

Pigeons breed up to 5 times a year and once they nest you have them for life.

We have the solution and our work is carried out to a high standard, don't make the mistake of thinking they are easy to remove, even after your solar panels have been professionally meshed they wont just pack up and leave.

We can instal bird spike wherever it is needed and this will help to move the pigeons on.

Seagulls nesting on your roof are difficult to remove, they will not be deterred by pigeon proofing products but we can treat the problem with our seagull wire and post systems. Seagulls are very resilient and strong they can easily peck off normal bird spikes but our wire and post systems are cemented in under the ridge tiles making it impossible for the gulls to remove it. Once confronted with this system which will last 20 + years they will leave your roof alone and seek easier places to nest.

We supply and fit Hybrid heat pumps for homes not suitable for standard heat pumps.

We supply and fit solar PV systems and solar batteries at trade prices.

If you live in a flat/apartment or your roof isn't suitable for solar panels we can install a battery system that will utilise cheap off peak electricity, storing it into the battery's for use throughout the day saving 50% - 70% on your electricity costs.

Roof cleaning:

We are one of the not so many solar companies that will clean your roof before your solar panels are installed using our own roofing gangs rather than subcontractors. This preventative measure will reduce the chances of moss getting out of control under your solar panels and therefore save you money having to have the panels removed later when the moss has grown and started to cause problems to your roof. We also undertake complete roof cleaning even if you don't have solar panels leaving your roof looking like new, our roofers will repair roofs where required and we clean gutters.
