    Professional Solar Panel Cleaning You Can Rely On

    Solar panels are an investment, and keeping them clean helps them perform at their best. Dust, pollen, bird droppings and environmental grime build up on the panel surface over time, blocking sunlight from reaching the cells.

    ClearView Exterior Services provides professional solar panel cleaning across Wollongong and the Illawarra. We use a purified-water and soft-brush approach where appropriate — gently removing build-up without scratching the panel surface or leaving residue behind.

    Access and roof condition are assessed first. We don't make specific promises about energy output gains — the result depends on how dirty the panels were before cleaning — but clean panels perform better than dirty ones.

    “Noah and the team from ClearView completed a roof clean of our house in June 2025 and did an awesome job. Took over 10 years worth of accumulated dirt and moss off the roof and gutters. House looks brand new. Could not recommend these guys highly enough, will get them back again for sure.”

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How often should solar panels be cleaned?

    Most solar panels benefit from cleaning every 6–12 months depending on the level of dust, pollen, bird droppings and environmental exposure. Properties near the coast or under trees may need more frequent cleaning.

    What method do you use to clean solar panels?

    We use a purified-water and soft-brush approach where appropriate. This gently removes dirt, pollen and bird droppings without scratching the panel surface or leaving residue behind.

    Can you clean solar panels on a two-storey roof?

    Yes, subject to safe access. We assess access and roof condition before starting. If safe access can't be achieved, we'll let you know.

    Will cleaning my solar panels improve their output?

    Dirty panels can produce less energy than clean ones. Cleaning removes the build-up that blocks sunlight from reaching the cells. We don't promise specific energy gains — the result depends on how dirty the panels were before cleaning.

    Do you use chemicals to clean solar panels?

    We primarily use purified water and soft brushes. If stubborn staining requires additional treatment, we use products appropriate for solar panel surfaces.

    Can you clean solar panels and install bird proofing at the same time?

    Yes. If you need both cleaning and bird proofing, we can assess and quote for both services together. See our solar panel bird proofing page for more detail.

    What areas do you service for solar panel cleaning?

    We service Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama, Albion Park, Dapto, Figtree, Thirroul and the wider Illawarra. Call to discuss availability for Southern Highlands, Nowra and Campbelltown.
