Should You Hire One Company for Solar Panel Cleaning and Pigeon Proofing?
If your solar panels are dirty and pigeons are also nesting underneath them, using one company for both services can make the job simpler.
The important part is not whether one company does everything. It is whether that company actually knows how to clean solar panels safely and properly exclude pigeons.
Why Combining the Services Can Make Sense
Pigeon problems and dirty solar panels often occur at the same time.
A complete project may involve:
Removing accessible nests and nesting material
Cleaning debris from underneath the panels
Cleaning bird droppings from affected roof areas
Installing bird mesh
Cleaning the solar panel surface
Having one company coordinate the work can make it easier to know exactly what is being cleaned and what is being protected.
Cheetah provides both solar panel cleaning and solar panel pigeon proofing.
What Should Happen First?
If pigeons are already nesting underneath the panels, the nesting area should be addressed before it is closed with mesh.
Accessible nests and nesting material should not simply be sealed underneath the array.
Cheetah offers bird nest removal from underneath solar panels when needed as part of the project.
After the area is cleaned, bird mesh can be installed around the exposed perimeter to prevent pigeons from getting back underneath.
Does the Solar Panel Surface Need to Be Cleaned Too?
Not always, but it often makes sense while the work is being done.
Bird droppings, dust, and other buildup can collect on the surface of the panels while pigeons are using the roof.
Cheetah cleans solar panels using purified or deionized water and a non abrasive brush. We do not recommend pressure washing the panel surface.
What Should You Ask Before Hiring One Company for Both?
Make sure the quote explains exactly what is included.
Ask whether they will:
Remove accessible nesting material
Clean underneath the panels
Clean affected roof areas
Clean the solar panel surface
Protect every accessible solar array
Explain the bird mesh and attachment system being used
The goal is to avoid assuming two quotes include the same work when they actually cover very different scopes.
When Would Separate Companies Make More Sense?
If your solar system has an electrical or equipment problem, you may need a qualified solar technician or electrician rather than a cleaning or bird control company.
Likewise, a company that is excellent at solar cleaning is not automatically experienced with pigeon exclusion.
Choose based on the actual work required.
